Book excerpt: Bob Mizon, one of the world’s best known campaigners against the veil of light pollution that has taken away the starry sky from most of the world’s population, takes readers to a hundred places in the UK and the USA where the wonders of the night sky might still be enjoyed in perfect or near-perfect night skies. Visiting small hotels and simple campsites, and savoring vast dark-sky reserves where the night sky is actively protected, The Million-Star Hotel celebrates the black skies of yesteryear – which may become a reality for more and more of us as modern technology reins in lighting and puts it only where needed. How can you prepare for your stay beneath the stars? What astronomy can you do during the daytime? What kind of equipment will you need? Questions such as these are answered, and if town dwellers return inspired – and, Bob hopes, also inspired to look with fresh eyes at their own local lighting – there is enough information here for them to equip themselves for some urban astronomy too.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • One of cherished author Debbie Macomber’s classic novels, this is an enchanting tale of a love that is challenged at every turn. At a magical Christmas fete, Karen McAlister meets a man she cannot ignore—the first man to interest her in a long while. Before she laid eyes on Rand Prescott, Karen would have said her life was complete and content . . . much to the dismay of her widowed father, who would love to see her married and settled. But everything changed that enchanted night: The stars, the moonlight, the music, and the champagne all conspired to throw two people together. But the fates are determined to pull them apart. Long ago, Rand Prescott erected a steel façade around his heart. He never had any intention of maintaining any kind of relationship with a woman. Independent, proud, and nearly blind, Rand felt he had no capacity to return a woman’s love. But that was before he met Karen. In one night, she shattered all of his preconceived ideas about romance and threatened to break through his walls. Rand is convinced that Karen deserves better than the love of a blind man. Can he ever accept this beguiling woman into his life—and into his soul? BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Debbie Macomber's Last One Home. “It’s impossible not to cheer for Macomber’s characters. . . .

The weather may be cold outside, but things are sizzling indoors. Luci Foster knows she has to make amends with a lot of people, starting with her family whom she hadn’t spoken to since she’d moved to New York City over six years ago, to become a writer. She had long run out of money and friends willing to let her crash on their couches for a night while she waited for her big break, and at twenty-six years old, found herself back home in Snowy Ridge, Wisconsin, living with her Mom and working with her sisters, Wynn and Jessie, again. Luci had always been told she was like a tornado: came in fast and left destruction in her wake. It might have worked for her when she was younger but it wasn’t what she wanted for herself anymore and she was determined to make a change. Evan Monroe has struggled since graduating from college three years earlier. He’d moved from one awful job to the next and thought he was destined to live in his parents’ basement forever and work at the local Starbucks until his dad urged him to move to Snowy Ridge and work for his Aunt Bets as a realtor. Coupled with just coming out of a long-term relationship with his college sweetheart, the opportunity to get away and figure things out seemed too good to pass up. Evan didn’t know what he wanted from life but in his heart, he knew real estate wasn’t it for him. There was a goal set in front of him somewhere in the distance; he just couldn’t make out what it was yet. After a disastrous initial meeting months earlier, Luci and Evan aren’t thrilled to reconnect at first. But with time, friendship, and increasing desires, that’s all about to change. Neither Luci or Evan knows exactly what they’re looking for; but, they both may find exactly what they need has been in front of them the whole time. *** Look for the entire Love at Starlight series: CHRISTMAS AT STARLIGHT – Amber & Nick (Snowy Ridge: A Love at Starlight Novella, Book 0.5) COMING HOME – Jessie & Cade (Snowy Ridge: Love at Starlight, Book 1) TAKING CHANCES – Wynn & Bryce (Snowy Ridge: Love at Starlight, Book 2) FINDING ME – Luci & Evan (Snowy Ridge: Love at Starlight, Book 3) CHANGE OF HEART – Becca & Cooper (Snowy Ridge: Love at Starlight, Book 4) BETTING ON YOU – April & Cash (Snowy Ridge: Love at Starlight, Book 5)

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER From the beloved, bestselling author of Indian Horse and Medicine Walk, Richard Wagamese's final novel is a rapturous and profoundly moving story of love, compassion, mercy, and the consolations to be found in the natural world. Frank Starlight has long settled into a quiet life working his remote farm, occasionally venturing into the unbroken country around his property to photograph the wild animals who thrive there. His contemplative existence comes to an abrupt end with the arrival of Emmy, a woman on the run who has committed a desperate act so she and her child can escape a life of abuse. Frank takes in Emmy and her daughter to help them get back on their feet, and, gradually, this accidental family grows into a real one. But Emmy's violent ex-boyfriend isn't content to just let her go. He wants revenge and is determined to hunt her down. An instant national bestseller, Starlight was unfinished at the time of Richard Wagamese's death, yet every page radiates with his masterful storytelling, intense humanism, and insights that are as hard-earned as they are beautiful. With astonishing scenes set in the rugged backcountry of the B.C. Interior, and characters whose scars cut deep even as their journey toward healing and forgiveness lifts us, Starlight is a magnificent last gift to readers from a writer who believed in the power of stories to save us.

The story is set in the beautiful town of Glitter Ville, where we meet Barbie, a wonderful girl who can't get enough of adventures. She wants to leave her small town. She has beautiful blue eyes and golden hair. Barbie has a strong urge to reach for the stars one night as she looks at them from her balcony. She goes on a mission to reach her goals in the universe. Her wise grandpa, Professor Pops, an inventor, and former moon explorer, inspires her to do this. Professor Pops gives Barbie great advice, stressing how important it is to be brave, determined, and plan carefully. Barbie works hard to learn about science, physics, and building spaceships. Her friends Skipper, Stacie, and Chelsea always back her up. They work together to design and build the "Star Dreamer," a spaceship that can handle the harsh conditions of space flight. Barbie and her friends work hard on their project for months, which turn into years. The Star Dreamer is finally ready to go on its first trip. Professor Pops' eyes shine with pride as all of Glitter Ville comes together to say goodbye to Barbie. When the Star Dreamer takes off into the night sky, Barbie's heart skips a beat.

The whole world is filled with a warm, caring light, and the stars are shining brighter than they ever have. Barbie says goodnight to her alien friends and goes back to Earth when the job is done. People in Glitter Ville are glad to see her back because while she was gone, the stars got brighter. The village changes into a place where science, art, and adventure are at the center. Barbie's impact goes far beyond the small town where she grew up. She motivates people all over the world, sparking a global interest in space travel and bringing people together as they try to reach their goals.

Her legacy is a monument to the power of dreams, the search for knowledge, the strength of friendships, and the vast possibilities of the world. It's a reminder that anyone with bravery and a strong will can reach for the stars and find out all the secrets of the universe. How the story started: Once upon a time, a young woman named Barbie lived in the lovely town of Glitter Ville. Glitter Ville was a beautiful little town in a valley surrounded by hills covered in bright wildflowers. The town itself was a sight to see, with its cobblestone streets, pastel-colored houses, and streets lined with trees that bloomed in every color of the rainbow. It was the kind of place where it felt like time had stopped and every day was a nice, warm afternoon. Barbie, on the other hand, was not like the other girls in Glitter Ville. She stood out like a sparkling gem among a bunch of different people. Barbie was different from her friends because she had a unique sense of fun. While the other kids spent their afternoons playing in the town square or exploring the nearby woods, Barbie's heart longed for something more. She really wanted to see the world outside of her small, lovely town. The place Barbie lived in was just as appealing as the way she looked. Her calm, deep blue eyes looked like they held the soul of the evening sky. They had a spark of curiosity and wonder that hinted at her unique spirit. When Barbie walked, her golden hair sparkled and flowed like liquid sunshine. It fell in waves down her back, catching the light and giving her a warm, golden glow wherever she went. The people of Glitter Ville were amazed by Barbie's beauty and her special way of making every day look like something special. Her laughter sounded like wind chimes in the distance, and she could make an easy walk across the town square into a fun adventure. Her love of life was inspiring, and people were drawn to her like moths to a flame. Her friends loved spending time with her. But Barbie wasn't just special because she was beautiful or had a charming personality. What really set her apart was the fire in her heart, which was full of dreams and a strong desire to see the world outside of Glitter Ville. Barbie's dreams were as big as the sky, and she wanted to go on adventures that would take her to faraway places with amazing things she had never seen before. Every night, Barbie would sit on her porch and stare at the stars as the sun set and turned the sky pink and orange. She would get lost in the sparkling constellations and trace them with her finger as if she could touch them. During these times, her dreams took off, and she imagined herself as a brave explorer who flew through the universe to faraway galaxies and new worlds. Barbie's room showed how creative she could be. The walls were covered with posters of scientists, celestial bodies, and spaceships of all shapes and sizes. She had a library full of books about astronomy, physics, and space travel, which she read quickly because she was so hungry for knowledge. Barbie was determined to find out as much as she could about the universe. She knew that knowledge was the key to finding out the secrets of the universe. Barbie's sense of adventure, however, was not just in her head. She was a girl who did things, and she knew that dreams alone wouldn't get her out of Glitter Ville. Barbie wanted to make her dreams come true as much as she wanted to be like the stars she looked up to. She knew she couldn't travel by herself, so she asked her best friends, Skipper, Stacie, and Chelsea, to help her. They were a close-knit group of friends. Each of them had their own skills and quirks, but they all loved Barbie and were loyal to her. Together, they were an unbeatable force that was ready to take on any problem. Barbie felt a deep longing in her heart as she lay on her porch and looked up at the stars one beautiful evening. The sky was a medley of colors that made the night in Glitter Ville different from any other. The stars shone with a brightness that seemed to go beyond what was known. Each one looked like a tiny lamp lighting up the dark night, and all of them together gave the town a beautiful, ethereal glow. Barbie's balcony was her safe place. It was a place where she could get away from the everyday and dive into the mysteries of the world. She would often come back to this place after a long day of learning and getting ready for her next trip. The balcony gave her a first-person view of the wonders of the universe that had her mind riveted. Here, she found peace, inspiration, and a strong sense of being connected to the world. Barbie leaned back in her balcony chair and ran her fingers along the cool wrought-iron fence. A light breeze carried the smell of flowers from nearby fields, and the quiet chirping of crickets was a soothing lullaby. She looked up into the sky, and her blue eyes sparkled in the light of the stars. She felt a clear connection to the world. As she looked up at all the stars, she felt a strong sense of desire. It was as if the stars themselves were telling her secrets and pushing her to find out what amazing things were outside of Glitter Ville. It was more than a little girl's usual fantasy; it was a call from the deepest part of her soul. Barbie knew that there was something beyond the twinkling stars that she had to find out about. Since she could remember, she had been getting this feeling. She couldn't stop wanting to go to places no one from Glitter Ville had ever been before. She felt like her future was tied to the stars, and she couldn't fight it any longer. Barbie made a firm choice that changed the course of her life for good. She decided to go on a trip that would take her to meet the stars she looked up to. She didn't make the choice quickly because she knew that such an expedition would be hard and full of unknowns. Barbie, on the other hand, had always been a girl with a strong will. Once she made up her mind about something, she never changed her mind. As Barbie put her plan into action, the next few days were a blur of action. She didn't think she could go on such a crazy trip by herself, so she asked her grandfather, Professor Pops, for help and support. Professor Pops was an old man with a lot of experience. He had once made a rocket that went to the moon. He had always supported Barbie's goals because he saw the same spark of curiosity and excitement in her eyes that had led him to pursue his own. Barbie sat down with her granddad, and they talked late into the night about her goals and dreams. She said she wanted to learn more about the stars, and Professor Pops was happy to help. He knew Barbie could do great things, and he put all of his faith in her. With his help, Barbie started making plans for her trip through space. Barbie's first step was to learn the information and skills she needed to go to space. She worked hard at her studies and read a lot of books about astronomy, physics, and building spaceships. Every day was a chance to learn something new, and she liked the challenge of mastering the hard topics that would prepare her for the unknown. Barbie was very determined, and she put a lot of effort into her schoolwork. She spent a lot of time at the local library, surrounded by stacks of books and notes, learning about how to use the stars to navigate and how rockets work. Her friends Skipper, Stacie, and Chelsea joined her in her quest for information. Together, they formed a close and eager study group. Barbie and her friends became a strong team as the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months. They were all driven by a desire to find out more about the world. They worked on hard math, experiments, and hands-on projects like designing spacecraft parts and making model rockets. It was its own journey of discovery, as they learned not only about how big the universe is, but also about the power of friendship and working together. Barbie's room was turned into a makeshift lab with plans, charts, and mockups of spacecraft parts. The walls were covered with posters of astronauts and space adventures, which were always a source of inspiration. Barbie could feel her excitement growing as they got closer to their goal each day, like a rocket getting ready to take off. But Barbie's adventures didn't just take place in her studies and in her room. She knew that having practical knowledge was just as important as knowing things in theory. With the help of her grandfather, she and her friends made a life-sized copy of their spaceship, the "Star Dreamer." It was a labor of love, built with precision and care, and it was a physical representation of their hopes and dreams. As the Star Dreamer took shape, the whole town of Glitter Ville came together to help Barbie and her friends. The community came together to help. Engineers and craftspeople from the area shared their knowledge, and people from the town gave support and supplies. The way people worked together in Glitter Ville was a testament to the belief that dreams can come true when a community works together.
