A stunning middle grade fantasy about a girl who used to be a dragon and her adventure to save her new home-from Even the Darkest Stars author Heather Fawcett. Perfect for fans of the Nevermoor and His Dark Materials series. Ember St. George is a dragon. At least she was before her adoptive father-a powerful but accident-prone Magician-turned her into a human girl to save her life. Unfortunately, Ember's growing tendency to burst into flames at certain temperatures-not to mention her invisible wings-is making it too dangerous for her to stay in London. The solution: ship Ember off to her aunt's research station in frigid Antarctica. Though eccentric Aunt Myra takes getting used to, Ember quickly feels at home in a land of ice storms, mischievous penguins, and twenty-four-hour nights. She even finds herself making friends with a girl genius called Nisha and a mysterious orphan named Moss. Then she discovers that Antarctica is home to the Winterglass Hunt, a yearly tradition in which rare ice dragons are hunted for their jeweled scales. Furious, Ember decides to join the hunt to sabotage it from the inside. But being an undercover dragon isn't easy-especially among dragon hunters. Can a twelve-year-old fire dragon survive the dangers that come her way in the Antarctic wilderness and protect the ice dragons from extinction?

Recomendado para fazer parte da biblioteca permanente de todos os leitores do gênero de fantasia." --Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos O Best-seller #1! Da Autora de Best-sellers #1 - Morgan Rice - chega a estréia de uma nova série de fantasia deslumbrante. EM BUSCA DE HERÓIS (LIVRO #1 O ANEL DO FEITICEIRO) o qual gira em torno da épica história de amadurecimento de um garoto especial, um jovem de quatorze anos, de uma pequena vila nos arredores do Reino do Anel. Sendo o mais jovem de quatro filhos, o menos favorito de seu pai e odiado por seus irmãos, Thor sente que ele é diferente dos demais. Ele sonha com se tornar um grande guerreiro, unir-se aos homens do Rei e proteger o Anel das hordas de criaturas que vivem do outro lado do Canyon. Quando ele atinge a idade para tentar alistar-se na Legião do Rei e é proibido por seu pai de fazê-lo, Thor se recusa a aceitar a um não como resposta: ele empreende sua própria jornada solitária, determinado a abrir o seu caminho para a Corte do Rei e ser levado a sério. Mas a corte do rei está repleta de seus próprios dramas familiares, lutas de poder, ambições, ciúmes, violência e traição. O Rei MacGil deve escolher um herdeiro entre os seus filhos e a antiga Espada do Destino, a fonte de todo o seu poder, permanece ainda intocada, aguardando a chegada do escolhido. Thorgrin chega como um forasteiro e luta para ser aceito e se juntar à Legião do Rei. Thorgrin começa a perceber que ele tem poderes misteriosos os quais ele não entende bem; que ele tem um dom especial e um destino especial. Contra todas as probabilidades, ele se apaixona pela filha do rei e seu relacionamento proibido floresce; ele também descobre que possui rivais poderosos. Enquanto Thor luta para compreender o significado de seus poderes, o feiticeiro do rei o acolhe sob sua asa protetora e conta-lhe sobre a mãe que ele nunca conheceu, de uma terra longínqua, além do Canyon, além até mesmo da Terra dos Dragões. Antes que Thorgrin possa aventurar-se e se tornar o guerreiro que ele tanto anseia ser, ele deve completar seu treinamento. Mas talvez isso possa ser abreviado, já que Thor se encontra no centro das tramas e intrigas reais, as quais podem ameaçar seu amor e derrubá-lo - juntamente com o Reino inteiro. Com sua ambientação em um mundo sofisticado e sua caracterização de época, EM BUSCA DE HERÓIS é um conto épico sobre amigos e amantes, rivais e pretendentes, sobre cavaleiros e dragões, intrigas e maquinações políticas, sobre atingir a maioridade, corações partidos, mentira, ambição, e traição. É uma história de honra e coragem, de destinos, de feitiçaria. É uma fantasia que nos leva a um mundo que nunca esqueceremos e que vai interessar a todas as idades e gêneros. Contém 82.000 palavras. 3 livros, de um total de 13 da série, já estão disponíveis!

That fool of a fairy Lucinda did not intend to lay a curse on me. She meant to bestow a gift. When I cried inconsolably through my first hour of life, my tears were her inspiration. Shaking her head sympathetically at Mother, the fairy touched my nose. "My gift is obedience. Ella will always be obedient. Now stop crying, child." I stopped. So begins this richly entertaining story of Ella of Frell, who wants nothing more than to be free of Lucinda's gift and feel that she belongs to herself. For how can she truly belong to herself if she knows that at any time, anyone can order her to hop on one foot, cut off her hand, or betray her kingdom--and she'll have to obey? Against a bold tapestry of princes, ogres, giants, wicked stepsisters, and fairy godmothers, Ella's spirited account of her quest to break the curse is a funny, poignant, and enchanting tale about an unforgettable heroine who is determined to be herself.

Elizabeth Webster and the Court of Uncommon Pleas
Elizabeth Webster is happy to stay under the radar (and under her bangs) until middle school is dead and gone. But when star swimmer Henry Harrison asks her to tutor him in math, it's not linear equations Henry really needs help with-it's a flower-scented, poodle-skirt-wearing, head-tossing ghost who's calling out Elizabeth's name. But why Elizabeth? Could it have something to do with her missing lawyer father? Maybe. Probably. If only she could find him. In her search, she discovers more than she is looking for: a grandfather she never knew, a startling legacy, and the secret family law firm Webster & Son, Attorneys for the Damned. Elizabeth and her friends soon land in court, where demons and ghosts take the witness stand and a red-eyed judge with a ratty white wig hands out sentences like sandwiches. Will Elizabeth's father arrive in time to save Henry Harrison-and is Henry the one who really needs saving?
