Terran Realm
…a world where the Terrans, a race as old as
time, coexist in harmony—and secrecy—with
mere mortals. Their collective consciousness is what
keeps the world whole, and their century and a half
lifespan ensures corporate knowledge won't be lost…or
will it?
Keepers:
Armed with the very power of Mother Earth, Keepers
use their special skill set of Air, Earth, Fire, Spirit
and Water to maintain world balance through manipulation
of their element. They are one of the most precious
resources our world has to offer.
Protectors:
The “guardsmen” to Keepers, Protectors
are the muscle with magic that ensure a Keeper is
never compromised.
Destroyers:
Destroyers are Terrans that have gone bad; they
seek to annihilate everything KOTE (Keepers of the
Environment) fought to establish centuries ago…and
to a certain extent, they've succeeded.
Talisman:
A special Keeper, one who not only manipulates their
signature element, but can control it. Born rarely,
they are more myth than reality, and their importance
and talents have been lost to the mists of time.
Dive into the Terran Realm and experience the lives
of the lusty, the willful, the destructive.

A PERFECT SYMMETRY —Jeanne Barrack
 The battle
begun over 3,000 years ago wages on... The struggle
between good and evil continues ...
Brigid and Gabe Kawsantower and Ethan Clark, members of the Terran race, return to America following the disappearing trail of Lord Nolen,
a crazed Terran Destroyer. They've foiled his plans to open a gate in Ireland for the demon, Ba'al. Now, if they can't find Nolen again, he'll continue
to work toward world domination as Ba'al's emissary. But where is he and how does he plan to achieve his goal?
To assist them in finding and defeating Nolen, they enlist the aid of Terrans in America and Ireland.
In Ireland, Dagda, Brigid's father, an ancient Irish Terran Protector, finds allies with Eileen Murray and Casey Aidan, young Irish Terrans of mixed blood.
Both Fire Keepers, Eileen had assisted Brigid, Gabe and Ethan earlier and now acts as Dagda's recruiter, seeking Irish Terrans who have forgotten their heritage. Casey,
is also a Protector, the warrior class of Terrans, and as an orphan, is searching for his roots. He's also fighting to understand his newly awakened attraction to men...
and women. Dagda's greatest ally, though is Machnamh - Mach - Mach is one of the pureblood Irish Spirit Keepers, known to modern day Irish as the Sidhe. When Mach meets
Eileen and Casey he realizes that in order to heal Casey's torn spirit , he must recognize his sexual duality. The three join together in a passionate ménage and discover
the Perfect Symmetry needed to achieve harmony and gain greater strength to aid in the fight against Lord Nolen.
Lord Nolen has also found minions to help his evil plans. Lorraine Foley , is a match for Nolen. An insane, sadistic killer, she dreams of becoming Nolen's consort
and the most powerful female in the world. James Macalister, a young gay man only dreams of being Nolen's one true love and will do anything - even share Nolen with
Lorraine in a tortured threesome - if it means that Nolen will keep him by his side. But will their presence help Nolen with his plans or weaken him?
In New York City, Gabe calls upon Aviva Shiron to help them fight Lord Nolen. Aviva, a Desert Terran, and, like Ethan, a Terran Singer - is able to control
humans and Terrans alike with her music. Though she longs to become Ethan's love, his heart remains with Brigid. Gabe and Ethan struggle with their competing love for
Brigid. Only when Brigid deciphers an ancient code do they realize that to defeat Nolen they must join together - body, mind and heart - to become the final Perfect
Symmetry and destroy Lord Nolen forever.

BOOK ONE in Jeanne Barrack's Terran Books
THE SHIMMERING FLAME—Jeanne Barrack
 The
battle begun over 3,000 years ago wages on...
Brigid Kawsantower travels to Ireland with her husband, Gabe, unaware of the true reason for their trip — and her true identity —
until she comes to the little town of Carrigclarseach. There she learns of the Terrans, a clandestine group of supernatural beings who
struggle to keep the earth in balance.
Brigid is a Terran Water and Fire Keeper. She is also the daughter of Dagda, a mighty Water Keeper, who, at one time, was the leader of the Terrans of
ancient Eire. Retreating before invading forces, he places Brigid's spirit within the heart of an Irishwoman emigrating to America until the
day when Brigid's help is needed to defeat Nimhnach, a maniacal Destroyer, who has aligned with the powerful demon Ba'al to gain eternal life and
world domination. Can Brigid believe enough in her newfound powers to fulfill her destiny?
Gabe is a Terran Protector with a secret — can he protect Brigid from Nimhnach's plans and his own dark desires?
Irish archeologist, Ethan Clark, is a Terran Singer and Air Keeper. Ages ago he was Dagda's harper and right-hand man - - and
Brigid's lover. Should he try to regain her love?
Now they all must work together to vanquish Nimhnach before he unleashes a terror that will enslave the world and destroy Brigid's loves — past,
present... and future.
