Book excerpt: Ancient legends tell of great and magical beings who dwell upon the earth: the Eliyai, creatures of beauty; the Llorian, creatures of wisdom; the Dragons, creatures of strength…and the Korophin, creatures of mighty deliverance. But all of these beings have been lost for ages, and none now know where they dwell… Sixteen-year-old Matthew Falstrom faces a terrifying reality: his home valley of Heldhaven is about to be destroyed by Mount Korvex, a long-dormant volcano. But Galdrick the wizard gives the people of Heldhaven hope, proclaiming that their answer lies in the Korophin. But no one knows who or what the Korophin are, or where they can be found. No one, that is, except for Matthew, who unknowingly wears a magical medallion that will lead them to the Korophin, and with them, deliverance. Matthew will have to face battles, kidnappings, pirates, monsters, and magical beings as he seeks to save his homeland. He and his companions will journey to the very end of the world to find the Korophin. But will they be in time to save their home?

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller “A refreshingly unadorned account of the true brutality of climbing K2, where heroes emerge and egos are stripped down, and the only thing achieving immortality is the cold ruthless mountain.” — Norman Ollestad, author of Crazy for the Storm In this riveting work of narrative nonfiction, New York Times journalist Graham Bowley re-creates one of the most dramatic tales of death and survival in mountaineering history—the 2008 K2 ascent that claimed the lives of eleven climbers In the tradition of Into Thin Air and Touching the Void, No Way Down is the harrowing account of the worst mountain climbing disaster on K2, second to Everest in height. . . but second to no peak in terms of danger. On August 1, 2008, no fewer than eight international teams of mountain climbers—some experienced, others less prepared—ascended K2, the world's second-highest mountain, with the last group reaching the summit at 8 p.m. Then disaster struck. A huge ice chunk came loose above a deadly three-hundred-foot avalanche-prone gully, destroying the fixed guide ropes. More than a dozen climbers—many without oxygen and some with no headlamps—faced the nearly impossible task of descending in the blackness with no guideline and no protection. Over the course of the chaotic night, some would miraculously make it back. Others would not. From tragic deaths to unbelievable stories of heroism and survival, No Way Down is an amazing feat of storytelling and adventure writing, and, in the words of explorer and author Sir Ranulph Fiennes, “the closest you can come to being on the summit of K2 on that fateful day.”
