Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:
‘Shasta Summer’ is an entrancing addition to Teresa Geering’s romance / fantasy series ‘Erasmus, Shasta & Merlin’ in which the cunning and resourceful Erasmus continues his devilish attempts to secure the beautiful and enchanting Shasta as his own, while she and Merlin renew their enduring love for each other, impeded by the unfortunate fact that a spell from a previous century has transformed Merlin into a cat.
Written in seductive and mesmerising prose which gives it the feel of an authentic time-honoured fable, ‘Shasta Summer’ continues the tradition of the much-acclaimed ‘The Eye of Erasmus’ which records another such attempt by Erasmus when he espies Shasta across the centuries in a vision.
The books in the series can be read and enjoyed in any order and by readers of any age from six to ninety-six.

When he isn’t washing the graffiti off his shack, Gisbo’s time is spent dodging insults from his spoiled classmates and fighting for his life against the city’s arrogant clash team.
But all of that is going to change. Gisbo is finally sixteen and ready to try out for Elekai’ training in hopes of becoming an Elekai’ warrior, his biggest dream. However, when the tryouts go terribly wrong, Gisbo is whisked away to a life he never dreamed possible and learns that sometimes, truth can be stranger than legend when you’re Renegade born.

Here is the book’s description from the Amazon website:
It is a story of two kings and a holy war.
One man, J. Wane Kazuo, head of a private genetics company is driven by an angelic vision. He believes he is God’s chosen instrument in bringing about the Second Coming of Christ. And that’s exactly what he’s going to do.
CLONING CHRIST from blood samples taken from Christ’s burial cloth, the Shroud of Turin, combined with DNA from a direct descendant of the Magdalene bloodline.
Unless Michael Resnick, founder of one of the largest political movements in the US, the American Coalition for Life, can stop him. The ACL’s attempts range from simple legal actions to terrorist acts to covert abortion squads.
And caught in the middle are a group of people as diverse and unlikely as you will find: a scientist torn between two faiths, a talk show host crawling out of the media sewer, a writer in love, a cartoonist with the darkest of secrets, a fallen priest, and a skinhead graced by God.
Secrets spanning centuries will be uncovered. Life-long beliefs and dreams will be shaken, challenged and destroyed.
It is a story of what may be the greatest event or failure in the history of mankind; a story of sacrifice, horror, faith, betrayal and love.
“Let us not forget it was a holy war, and like all wars, it was bloody.”
