Book excerpt: Was Prince Ezra lulled into complacency after returning to his kingdom with his beautiful Siberian princes... forgetting his promise made to the cave-dweller? Indeed...until meeting Jesus in a temple, who handed him a gift for that cave-dweller of Star Lake Siberia. Will the prince and his family overcome the perils of traveling north with rampaging armies gobbling up land for their emperor ... and dirt-bag sword-slashing thieves stalking trade routes that would kill him and take his family as slaves, and lose the gift for the cave dwellers? Indeed it's a screaming, gut-wrenching, knee-trembling adventure, teasing your curiosity into flying high like a roller-coaster sleigh-ride zipping through the star filled skies. This tale will alchemize, tantalize, and captivate you into graceful submission, filling it finally, with a peaceful desire. Book III Sequel - The Promise of Christmas - The Promise Kept (soon to be released) Peace and Prosperity is enjoyed at long last in Tobolsk. Traders from far and near make annual treks to the north to trade for the best fur, using not only precious metals like gold and silver but also rare gems and crafted items of every kind, and for anyone willing to spend time browsing the market square. More important, and now widely known from afar, is the annual Christmas Celebration in Tobolsk where the story of the trip to Bethlehem is told while children gather around to hear of the coming of Angels announcing the birth of the Christ child, and the journey made by Prince Ezra and the Magi battling thieves and roman soldiers to fulfill their destiny, and when it was over, gifts were exchanged by everyone while merry songs are sung by all. It was at one of these festive moments that a traveler from the homeland of the Prince gave news of Jesus and the mission he had started to give hope to all for peace and happiness. It was then that Nikko who was a young boy when he met Jesus in the temple of Jerusalem, decided it was time for him to fulfill his destiny.
