That is very interesting, Chelsea. I haven’t really thought of the term historical fantasy, but I guess that is also what some of mine are.  It uses the biblical account of history and finds small niches within it, that might easily get overlooked and plants a mystery between those historical milestones.

For instance, I take the brief reference to the disappearance of Enoch in Genesis 5:24 and develop a “heavenly location” of where he, as a flesh-born man, was taken to. I also take the story of Elijah’s dramatic disappearance (2 Kings 2:11) and draw him to this same place, awaiting a future return to the earth as one of the two witnesses prophesied in Revelation 11:3-12.  I draw dragons into this story one unseen from Numbers 16:32, the Leviathan from Job 41 and Isaiah 27:1, and the red dragon in Revelations 12:3-4, as a kind of unholy trinity of beasts.  Rather than an “alternate” universe, however, mine is a symbiotic universe that is co-joined to this one but separated by a time coil.  Think of the brazen serpent in the wilderness (Number 21:8-9) acting as t literal model of time itself [as well as a foretelling of the one who holds all creation together [Colossians 1:16-17], wrapped around a central pole and cross-beam, coiling downward on a precise ratio of Fibonacci numerical sequences that end in infinity but began at the zero-point-energy (ZPE) incident of creation’s start.  There are interesting “real world” physics behind that, which seems to explain a truth about time that the atheistic scientific community is too afraid to consider, but the theory is so promising.  Check out Australian physicist Barry Setterfield’s pioneering work on the possibility that the speed of light is actually slowing down.
