Nach dem Untergang ihres Volkes, sind die Zwerge dem Wahnsinn verfallen!
Die Hochkultur der Zwerge ist untergegangen. Zurück blieben nur erbärmliche Kreaturen, die ihre Seelenpein mit Pilzbier zu betäuben versuchen. Den Sinn für die Wirklichkeit gänzlich verloren, kennen die Zwerge nur einen Schuldigen für den Untergang ihres Reiches: die Menschen! In ihrem Wahn konstruieren sie Tötungsmaschinen und schicken sie gegen ihren Feind. Bei einem Unfall wird der Zwerg Fargil vom Nachschub an Pilzbier abgeschnitten. Zwangsweise ausgenüchtert erkennt er den Verfall seines Volkes, und will ihm zu neuer Größe verhelfen. Aber auch unter den Menschen gibt es jene, die nicht hinnehmen wollen, ständig von den Zwergen bedroht zu werden. Fargil gerät zwischen die Fronten des schwelenden Konflikts. Dabei weiß er nicht, dass es Bestrebungen gibt, die angespannte Situation eskalieren zu lassen. Die Zeichen stehen auf Krieg!

Soll ich ihm vertrauen - ein aller letztes Mal?
An Ayden hat sich Teresa schon mehrfach die Finger verbrannt. Doch neuerdings öffnet er sich, und gibt ihr das Gefühl vertrauen zu können. Doch kann sie das wirklich?
Gerade jetzt könnte Teresa jemanden an ihrer Seite gut gebrauchen. Denn ihre Großtante hatte ein finsteres Geheimnis, und ehe sie sich versieht, droht auch Teresa von Dunkelheit verschlungen zu werden.
Rote Schwingen. Ein Blick aus Eis. Die Luft brennt um uns herum. Ich weiß, dass du meinen Tod willst.
Teresa wusste, dass ihr neues Leben als Schlüsselträgerin nicht ungefährlich ist. Das wird ihr umso bewusster, als seltsame Visionen sie überkommen und sie sich verfolgt fühlt. Sie muss sich irgendwem anvertrauen und kommt Ayden wieder ein Stück näher. Doch kann sie sich wirklich auf ihn einlassen? Und was ist mit Noah? Wird er letztendlich mehr als ein Freund sein? Alles wird in Frage gestellt, als sich ein Gegner erhebt, vor dem weder Ayden noch Noah Teresa beschützen können. Plötzlich ist nicht nur ihr Leben in Gefahr, sondern auch das ihrer Freundin Kate. Und der Kampf gegen den übermächtigen Gegner fordert einen hohen Preis…
There once was a house and it sat in the middle of a simple and quaint treelined street. A beautiful woman named Rebecca lived in this house with her faithfully devoted husband and their new born daughter. They were happy and they were proud. The house had originally belonged to a Great Great Aunt of Rebecca's named Minerva. She lived in the house all the days of her life and she died there, on the very last night of the year. In her final earthly wishes, Minerva bequeath the house to her next of kin and all of its belongings, including a golden sealed letter reading 'Instruction for the Keeper of the House,' to be given to whomever took legal ownership of the house. None of her next of kin came forward to claim the house. Some neighbors speculated that the relatives passed on such a beautiful home because of the rumored hauntings attached to it; the wild sobs of a young woman heard through the winter winds as the year closed, coupled by a sturdy knocking at the front door that emanated onto the street. The house sat and sat, empty until the law firm handling Minerva's estate located Rebecca as being the next in the family line to inherit the house and all its belongings, if she so wanted. Rebecca and her husband were thrilled and received the house gratefully. This stroke of luck came at just the right time in their lives as they were starting a family. With the arrival of Autumn, Rebecca and her husband moved into the house welcoming this new chapter in their lives, on this street and in this house. It was the house of their dreams. As the last leaves of Autumn blew out, in came the arrival of their first child, their daughter was born. On the very last day of the year, Rebecca prepared a 'special' bread for her family's first New Year's Eve together. As she opened the kitchen window to let in the cool winter breeze, she heard a sturdy knocking at their front door. She peeped out the window and saw two children standing there, a boy and a girl.
Ianvara. Seltsam, wie ein schlichter Name ein ganzes Land bewegen kann, vom einfachen Bauern bis zum König selbst. Dabei waren die Ianvara lange Zeit nichts weiter als ein unbedeutendes Landgrafengeschlecht, dessen einziger Verdienst es war, fähige Ritter hervorzubringen. Bis Valentine Ianvara, der Erste Ritter des Königs, zum Helden des Reiches aufsteigt - nur um kurz darauf all seine Eide zu brechen. Um ein Geheimnis von größter Bedeutung zu schützen, flieht er ausgerechnet zu jenen, die er einst so erbittert bekämpfte. Das sagenumwobene Volk der Dhraker bietet ihm Zuflucht, und während er in Veredal langsam zur düsteren Legende wird, hat hoch in den Gipfeln der Rotzinnen längst ein neues Kapitel in der Geschichte der Ianvara begonnen ...
Fourteen-year-old Peter Green can’t remember how he died.
All he has are his pajamas, a silk tie, and a one-way bus ticket to Mrs. Battisworth’s Academy and Haven for Unliving Boys and Girls, a strange and spooky school for dead orphans like himself. But that’s all he needs. The Unliving Academy has everything, from vampires in the hallways to monsters in the cafeteria to ghosts in the basement. And that’s just the teachers; the students are far stranger.
As Pete learns to fit in with his new supernatural schoolmates, he starts to discover his own uniquely undead abilities, and even begins enjoying his life after death...but he just can’t shake the feeling that he’s forgotten something (or somebody!) important. Somebody he left behind in the land of the living. Somebody he loved very much.
Somebody who’s in terrible danger.
