New author introduction: The God's Bracelet trilogy

Allow me to introduce myself and my upcoming books.
Currently, the first book of the series, code-named Finding Ishtar, is complete. In one sentence, it can be described as follows:
An ordinary, military intelligence officer discovers that commonly-accepted reality is not what it looks like and that mysterious events are only waiting for the right trigger to turn his life upside down and to send him across our universe and beyond, through a multitude of worlds, on a seemingly never-ending quest to regain love, friendship, and control over his own life, despite the meddling of ancient demons at war with gods.
Initially, I was going to write it and stop, however, while writing it, more ideas sprouted in my mind than one book could include. Thus, the 2nd and then the 3d books were born.
The 2nd book, which is almost ready, is code-named Double Hazard. In order to not spoil much, I could say the following:
It takes a detour to the Earth's distant past and follows adventures of the several creatures of a fictional race, stranded on our planet by their destiny. The protagonists from the 1st book hear of their plight and become involved in their lives. Their observations give them thoughts and send them on a search for more answers, only to find more troubles to solve.
The 3d book, code-named The Mute Eye, which I inexplicably finished writing before the 2nd one was complete, takes the protagonists further and further away from the worlds that they knew or had discovered in the 1st and 2nd books.
The events in all of the books in the series take place in our universe and several more parallel universes or worlds, if you prefer. They exist seemingly in the same space, but some of them may be of different shape, and time in them flows at different rates, which complicates things for the protagonists. Being under impression that the theme of actual space travel had become kind of exhausted by the last decades of the 20th century, I tried to make it secondary to the emotional and mental trials of the characters. These books try to explore kindness, compassion, and passion rather than technological wonders.
