Jimmy Crikey is the alien orphan who made his home on Earth, and Jimmy grows into an amazing young man. His close friend Jade approaches the end of her apprenticeship with Matilda as a witch.
There are a few tests to complete before she can become a fully qualified member of the sister’s Coven. Matilda is head of the four guardian witches of Earth’s realms. But she has been called to move to a higher level. Who will be appointed as her successor?
Jimmy is told that Jade must succeed in her trials using only her skills.
When collapsing roofs threaten the cave world of Lithnia, both Jimmy and Jade’s skills are needed to save Lithnia from the giant, rock-chewing beatles who originated in Egypt as scarabs.
Then the Sky Islands get caught up in tornado winds and a whirlwind. It is tearing the islands apart, and Matilda instructs Jade to go to their aid. Jimmy cannot interfere, but he does help Jade to carry out her plan to save the Islanders. Can the youngest witch overcome the danger?
The dreaded Giant Scarabs return to their destructive chewing of rocks, threatening to undermine and destroy Roombelow.
Jimmy and Jade trace the beatles resting place to a floating island in the Arctic seas, where aliens from the Alpha Centauri system are seeking diamonites from Lithnia to protect their planet from gamma rays being radiated from one of their suns. The Centaurians from planet Xe set out to save their world. They would risk an intergalactic war that could destroy Earth. Jimmy employs XRU, his talkative starship’s navigator, to help the aliens.
Jade finally graduates to the Sisterhood’s Coven, and the celebrations bring joy and sorrow in equal measure. Matilda is called to a higher level, but who will she appoint as her successor?
