The King's Children, Signy, Regin and Buri, are forced to flee from their home when their father is killed by the marauding chieftain Harwolf and his men.
Behind the high mountains, somewhere to the East, there is a strange kingdom where they hope to find help avenging their father and winning back their homeland.
Along the way, they discover a world inhabited by witches, elves, the undead, giants and many more strange and wonderful creatures. The royal children will need all their courage and determination to make it - and most importantly, they must learn to trust one another and stick together.
In English for the first time, this exciting Viking-inspired fantasy will thrill young fans of 'The Narnia Chronicles', 'Percy Jackson', and A. F. Steadman's 'Skandar the Unicorn Thief'.
'Exciting and well-told Viking story with many threads about creatures of Norse mythology. Along the way, both the children and the evil chieftain narrate, and the shifts help to keep the pace up and make the story engaging. Highly recommended!' - DBC

INTERDIMENSIONAL DEMON SLAYER
(Only she doesn't know it yet.)
On the morning of her twelfth birthday, Kiranmala is just a regular sixth grader living in Parsippany, New Jersey . . . until her parents mysteriously vanish and a drooling rakkhosh demon slams through her kitchen, determined to eat her alive.

To complicate matters, two crush-worthy princes ring her doorbell, insisting they've come to rescue her. Suddenly, Kiran is swept into another dimension full of magic, winged horses, moving maps, and annoying, talking birds. There she must solve riddles and battle demons all while avoiding the Serpent King of the underworld and the Rakkhoshi Queen in order to find her parents and basically save New Jersey, her entire world, and everything beyond it . . .

As Wisty begins a new relationship with an intense and mysterious boy and the pressures of leading the city bear down on them, Whit and Wisty find themselves growing apart. Will they be able to come together to fight the mounting threats that could return their world to the hands of a tyrant?
James Patterson delivers what the fans have been asking for--the story of what happens next--with an epic fourth installment about the heroic teen witch and wizard that have captured our imaginations.
Many years ago, the storytellers say, the great King Arthur brought justice to England with the help of his gallant Knights of the Round Table.
Sir Lancelot the Great
Of these worthy knights, there was never one so fearless, so chivalrous, so honorable, so...shiny as the dashing Sir Lancelot, who was quite good at defending the helpless and protecting the weak, just as long as he'd had his afternoon nap.
Sir Givret the Short
Poor Givret: his size makes him so easy to overlook. But there's more to knighthood than height, and before long, Givret's quick thinking lands him a place at the famous Round Table!
Sir Gawain the True
The knights didn't always act quite as gallantly as a true knight should. Even King Arthur's nephew, known at that time as Sir Gawain the Undefeated, was too full of himself to accept a token of thanks from a rescued princess! Someone needed to teach Sir Gawain that courtesy and friendship are just as important as strength and courage.
Sir Balin the Ill-Fated
While most of King Arthur's knights freely chose a life of duty, for Sir Balin the Ill-Fated, destiny was foretold in a prophecy. Still, no matter how dire the task, a loyal and gallant knight never refuses adventure!
Sharon Cameron returns to the rich world of The Forgetting with a companion novel as thrilling and intricately crafted as the first.
Samara doesn't forget. And she isn't the only one. Safe underground in the city of New Canaan, she lives in a privileged world free from the Forgetting. Yet she wonders if she really is free, with the memories that plague her and secrets that surround her. Samara is determined to unearth the answers, even if she must escape to the old, cursed city of Canaan to find them.
Someone else is on their way to Canaan too . . . a spaceship from Earth is heading toward the planet, like a figment of the city's forgotten past. Beck is traveling with his parents, researchers tasked with finding the abandoned settlement effort. When Beck is stranded without communication, he will find more in Canaan than he was ever trained for. What will happen when worlds and memories, beliefs -- and truths -- collide?
This pulse-pounding, evocative companion to Cameron's highly acclaimed The Forgetting explores the truth and loss that lie within human memory, and the bonds that hold us together.
