Book excerpt: Katt soared down the zipline from her treehouse with Mariah, the lioness, running below in her shadow along the deep soft green forest floor. Feeling like she was flying, her senses took in the beauty of her world where all forms of life thrived together in peace and harmony. Inheriting the Guardianship of this magical world when Katt was so young didn't change the fact that she was responsible for protecting it. For centuries the creatures have trusted the Vindexa Clan Guardians to keep them and their world safe from the outside "regular" world's intrusions. But nothing is as certain as change. Will Katt be able to fully understand, embrace, and grow with inevitable changes? Can she protect her world, or will it be overcome, spoiled by sudden intrusions and events coming one after the other? Can she do this without resorting to violence? She must prevail, the peace and harmony must be preserved. But her abilities are still developing, how evolved will she become? Her world believes in her. Welcome to Veridesia.

Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author TJ Klune invites you back to the land of Verania in a new collection of short stories starring the beloved characters from the Tales of Verania series. In the opening story--The Unicorn in the Tower--Gary is a princess trapped in a stone tower by the evil Lady Tina DeSilva, who plans on sacrificing him on the first full moon after his eighteenth birthday. With help from his friends--a bird named Tiggy and a mangy weasel called Sam--Gary interviews potential suitors to rescue him and love him above all others, as he so rightly deserves. The Unicorn in the Tower is followed by Sam and the Beanstalk, wherein a poor farm boy exchanges his family's bull for magical beans and the promise of treasure in the sky. But when he climbs the beanstalk, Sam finds things are not as he expected them to be. The Good Boy sees Todd and his immaculate ears taking center stage. When Todd's father dies, he leaves his son in the care of his evil stepmother and two stepsiblings who live to make Todd's life a living hell. It's not until the household receives an invitation to attend a ball for the mysterious Sir that Todd begins to wish for a life beyond what he knows. David's Dragon, the final--and only canonical--tale, is set a thousand years before the rise of the Dark wizard Myrin. It begins simply: a lonely boy in a small village befriends a dragon. What follows is a story of love and sacrifice, hope and heartbreak, and what it means to earn your place amongst the stars. Welcome back to Verania. It's going to be a hell of a ride.

On a dark night, travelers from across France cross paths at an inn and begin to tell stories of three children. Their adventures take them on a chase through France: they are taken captive by knights, sit alongside a king, and save the land from a farting dragon. On the run to escape prejudice and persecution and save precious and holy texts from being burned, their quest drives them forward to a final showdown at Mont Saint-Michel, where all will come to question if these children can perform the miracles of saints. Join William, an oblate on a mission from his monastery; Jacob, a Jewish boy who has fled his burning village; and Jeanne, a peasant girl who hides her prophetic visions. They are accompanied by Jeanne's loyal greyhound, Gwenforte . . . recently brought back from the dead. Told in multiple voices, in a style reminiscent of The Canterbury Tales, our narrator collects their stories and the saga of these three unlikely allies begins to come together. Beloved bestselling author Adam Gidwitz makes his long awaited return with his first new world since his hilarious and critically acclaimed Grimm series. Featuring manuscript illuminations throughout by illustrator Hatem Aly and filled with Adam’s trademark style and humor, The Inquisitor's Tale is bold storytelling that’s richly researched and adventure-packed.

A stunning book.” —NPR.org “Short stories so imaginative — and yet so perplexingly familiar — they could have formed in a dream. . . .

Book Synopsis Tales of Ethshar by : Lawrence Watt-Evans
Download or read book Tales of Ethshar written by Lawrence Watt-Evans and published by . This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethshar? Some readers already recognize the name, but if you aren't one of them, perhaps a brief explanation is in order. "Ethshar" is the invented world that has been the setting for almost a dozen novels from the pen of Lawrence Watt-Evans. Its inhabitants don't call it that; they call it "the World." For readers, though, that's not specific enough. The dominant nation on the World is the Hegemony of the Three Ethshars, while the largest, richest city, where most of the stories are set, is Ethshar of the Spices, so "Ethshar" is close enough. The name itself comes from words meaning "safe harbor." You don't need to have read any of the novels to enjoy the stories herein; each one should stand alone. And if you've read the novels, you will enjoy this return to the world of Ethshar with 11 stories... This is the first time they have all been collected in one book!
