Book excerpt: Johnny Pull is a fatherless Scottish teenager who loves comics and tales. He goes on an excursion with his classmates to an emblematic castle in Scotland. There he finds the grave of Sir Light, the protagonist of a legend his grandfather once told him about. Johnny has a fascinating vision in front of the grave that will change his life forever. Along with his two best friends, Michael and Vicky, he finds a very special and strange book, the Scottish Legends, an invisible book that holds the key (the prophecy and the rite of passage) to fulfill the feat that Sir Light did not finish. Eventually, Johnny and his two friends enter the land of Lagon, a diabolical parallel world where the spirit of the dead knight, trapped between two different universes, still wanders trying to finish the task he was unable to complete: defeating the unmentionable one. They may well succeed...anything can be possible.

Book excerpt: "The Blue Lagoon" centers on two cousins, Dicky and Emmeline Lestrange, who are marooned with a galley cook on an island in the South Pacific following a shipwreck. The galley cook, Paddy Button, assumes responsibility for the children and teaches them how to survive. Two-and-a-half years after the shipwreck, Paddy died following a drinking binge. The children survive on their resourcefulness and the bounty of their remote paradise. They live in a hut and spend their days fishing, swimming, diving for pearls and exploring the island. As the years pass, Dicky and Emmeline grow into physically mature young adults and begin to fall in love. As they deal with their newfound emotions, Dicky's father Arthur believes the two are still alive and he is determined to find them. "The Garden of God" is a sequel to The Blue Lagoon and it picks up precisely where it left off, with Arthur Lestrange in the ship Raratonga discovering his son Dicky and niece Emmeline with their own child, lying in their fishing boat which has drifted out to sea. It turns out that Dicky and Emmeline died and the child is drowsy but alive and is picked up by the sailors. Arthur has a dream-vision of the pair; they ask him to come to Palm Tree, the island where they lived, and promise he will see them again. Arthur takes the child, which gets the nickname Dick M, and takes his ship to Palm Tree, where he plans to stay with Dick M and Kearney, a volunteer from the crew who grows fond of Dick. The rest of the crew leave with a promise to return the next year, but they get swallowed up in a storm out at sea, and the trio stays stuck on the island.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two shipwrecked children grow up on a South Pacific island. This beautiful story of adventure and innocent love was H.D. Stacpoole's most popular work. Parents who may have seen the Hollywood film need not be anxious about the book's suitability for kids -- the author's treatment of adolescent sexuality is almost mystical and very mild. The story of The Blue Lagoon (1908) continues in The Garden of God (1923) and The Gates of Morning (1925). A ship's doctor, Henry De Vere Stacpoole (1863-1951) published over 90 works of fiction, poetry, autobiography, and translation.

Book excerpt: The white man, turning his back upon the setting sun, looked along the empty and broad expanse of the sea-reach. For the last three miles of its course the wandering, hesitating river, as if enticed irresistibly by the freedom of an open horizon, flows straight into the sea, flows straight to the east—to the east that harbours both light and darkness. Astern of the boat the repeated call of some bird, a cry discordant and feeble, skipped along over the smooth water and lost itself, before it could reach the other shore, in the breathless silence of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lagoon opens up with a white man, but the story is really about the man's Malaysian friend Arsat. Framed narrative, quite common in Conrad's works, works quite well in this one. Tuan (the white man) serves the same function as Marlow the narrator in Heart of Darkness and Lord Jim. It may seem an unnecessary complication in a short story, but framed narrative actually helps to set a tone and atmosphere as well as to provide additional commentary.
