Yanda, abducted from her world, her life as a surgeon, returns home only to find nothing is as she expected.

Braided Dimensions blends Celtic mythology, ancient history, and modern-day mystery, where ancient and modern worlds collide. It follows Kay, a former professor of ancient languages, who finds herself drawn into a hidden realm of magic and danger.

Called by a strange and thrumming voice that cannot be shut out, Yanda deserts everything--her small daughter, her post as surgeon, her life on Planet Alland. Pulled across the universe, her ship is waylaid by the dark mage, Kridenit (“Krid”), who collects those with talents....

Kay has been drawn into a vortex of intrigue in the ancient world, of magic-wielding Wanderers, mesmerizing sylphs, powerful Nordic shamans, crafty mages. And now she cannot deny that her children are involved.

Kay aims to stop Thorgisl from obtaining Esch. Meanwhile Galfride has discovered the twenty-first century and wants his boyhood friend Ian back. Kay's son and daughter seem to him a barrier which puts them in danger.

The magical series Braided Dimensions soars to new heights with Strange Alliances. At the start of the series, Kay, a Berkeley professor of ancient languages, falls under the spell of a charming bard who takes her to medieval time.

In Lost Xentu Book 1, Yanda was drawn away from her home planet where she was a prestigious surgeon to find herself wayload into captivity by a greedy mage who collected anyone and anything with powers. Yanda’s ability to see through walls and into bodies has drawn the attention of powerful enemies.
