Mountaintops and Valleys, A Peaks Saga, Book 3 by MF ErlerMountaintops and Valleys (The Peaks Saga, Book 3)

[UPDATED AND REVISED 2018]

Jon, Jael, and Martina have finally found Maia, or Mother Earth. In their travels, they’ve been told they must search for a fountain on Earth that can wash them clean in both body and soul. But no one seems to know where this fountain is, though many cities claim that their fountain is the ‘true one.’ This is only one of the challenges they face, as they try to make a home for themselves in this strange, new place. Will Jon and Martina be able to commit to each other? Or will forces of the world tear their marriage apart, before it’s even begun?

Meanwhile, Jael’s friend, Raina–from Terres–has also managed to escape the destruction of Terres-City, with the help of kindly strangers. Will she and Jael be reunited? And will Jael and Martina find the rest of their shattered family?

“…mix of fantasy and adventure with a moral tale at its center… appropriate for a younger audience.” —Kathy Dunhoff, Zola Award-winning Women’s Fiction Writer

“…start with a religious/fantasy base, then adds a dollop of ‘A Wrinkle in Time’, mixed in a sprinkling of ‘Narnia’ and spice it up with a little romance.”

“M.F. Erler is an intriguing story-teller…hard to put down. I had many sleepless nights because I couldn’t wait to find out what happened next!“

Searching for Maia, A Peaks Saga, Book 2 by MF ErlerSearching for Maia (The Peaks Saga, Book 2)

[UPDATED AND REVISED 2018]

Ginna and Danny have been back from the future for almost four years, but things are falling apart for them again. Then time-travelers Jon and Jael arrive with a big surprise, taking them into their parallel universe and their own personal lives–where Jon, Jael, and Martina are out of choices. As they flee their homes on planet Terres, they are told to search for a mysterious planet called Maia. But no one seems to know where it is, or if it even exists.

As they travel through uncharted space, they encounter many ways of life, but none of them seems to provide any of the answers they seek. And they aren’t the only ones looking for it. The longer they search, the more they encounter mysterious dark forces and threats. As the truth of these forces and their schemes unfold, the trio falls into a deadly struggle for their very lives. They begin to wonder if their journey will ever reach an end, or if the journey itself is the only thing that is real.

“…a page turner!” —Judith Seidel

“I remember fondly reading The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe when I was in middle school. The Peaks at the Edge of the World has a similar mix of fantasy and adventure with a moral tale at its center. This is a book that’s appropriate for a younger audience than most sci fi/fantasy novels. Enjoy the read!” —Kathy Dunhoff, Zola Award-winning Women’s Fiction Writer
