The Prophecy
Yorda was used to excelling. He could run faster than anyone his age, his senses were more acute than those of anyone he knew he could even communicate with animals.

Little did he know that by healing their fevers he was walking into a trap and a trap that was intended to be deadly. So begins an adventure that leads Yorda to the Kingdom of the Elves where he will learn where he came from, who he is and the perilous tasks expected of him through the Prophecy. On the way he will meet with two stalwart companions the wise elf Mertok and the courageous soldier Dawson be pursued by murderous trackers sent by the Black Elf, and encounter fairies, a unicorn and a mystical Spellweaver. The Prophecy is book one in the Yorda 's Story trilogy. An evocative and exciting fantasy novel, it conjures up a world half familiar, half magical, in which the age-old struggle between good and evil comes to a head in an epic battle.

The Compassion Quest
In this follow-up to his much praised Finding Hope and Meaning in Suffering, Trystan Owain Hughes encourages us to develop an approach to life that looks beyond our own concerns. Using illustrations from poetry, literature and film, and drawing on contemporary scientific thought, the author makes plain that our natural state is an interconnected harmony with God, with each other and with the world around us. Gradually we come to realize that loving others and desiring the best for them is worthwhile, even when there seems to be little in it for us. Just as Christ chose to humble himself and become 'God with us', so we too will bring light to the lives of those around us by transcending our self-centredness and becoming fully present to those in need. And as we begin to attune ourselves to love's frequency, our inner being will instinctively embrace all creation as sacred and deserving of our care and attention.
