Bücher der Reihe Jeli Series

Fleeing from the terrifying Shades, Mark escapes to magical Nolin, arriving with a 'splash' in the home of the wizar Miles and his two daughters. Warily, Miles welcomes the stranger - in Nolin's language, 'Thwortle' means 'Welcome'. Mark soon discovers that he too has magic. But the Shades' magic is much stronger, and they have followed him to Nolin. Thwortle is the first book in the three-book Jeli Series, about a rift between African and Mycenaean god families.

Dancing Mountain is the second book in the three-book Jeli series, about a momentous clash between African and Mycenaean god families. It is advisable to read the first book, Thwortle, before reading this one. The entire series, three books in all, tells one continuous, complex story that is best read in sequence. Mark's ordinary life is over. Now he is in training to retrieve his African grandfather's drummer lizard.
