Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's this about a lost goblin? In Polly and the Shadow Goblin: Goblin Lost, Polly is a thirteen-year-old in the eighth grade. She is attractive, intelligent, and is a good student. All she has ever wanted is to fit in, but she never has. Polly goes through many painful attempts to find a niche for herself, but never quite makes the grade. Then she meets a strange boy with a problem greater than her own. She tries hard to help him, and suddenly finds herself the center of attention for a basketball hero at school. As she starts to finally fit in, Polly's problem and her friend's problem intrude. Polly and the Shadow Goblin: Goblin Lost concludes with a desperate search to find a lost goblin with the aid of a magic necklace. Polly realizes several things when she helps the stranger find the goblin. She learns the importance of friendship and that people mature at different times, even though they are the same age. These simple lessons are part of a complex story. Polly Shepherd could never see in the dark; she could never run down falling debris safely to the ground. Polly could not ignore the bite of winter's cold breath, nor could she step into the heart of a shadow and step out of another shadow; anywhere! She couldn't outrun an automobile, or run up a steel anchor cable in the wind. All she'd ever been able to do was alienate herself from her peers, but all that is about to change.

Book excerpt: “SHADOWDAYS will have you walking a razor’s edge between what’s real and what’s not. Either will break your heart. Schattel will teach you the meaning of guilt, and of grief, at a pace that leaves you breathless. This is pulp horror soaked in empathy, and it will cut you.” —Sarah Read, Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of The Bone Weaver’s Orchard On the dark side of town, what’s past is never really past. And what’s buried is never really dead. Melissa Sweet is in a delicate state. She’s a clinical nurse in a small southern town who, after a career-ending accident and the accusations of foul play that followed, is just now starting to put her life back together. She’s got her mom, her troubled brother, and her fiancé Jack to keep her grounded, and right now she’s taking life one uneasy day at a time. But tormented by a harrowing act of violence, she makes an impulsive move that changes her life—and the lives of those she loves—forever. This unleashes a disorienting cycle of brutality and revelation as she reckons with the blood of her own past and the blood of those who transgressed against her. And it will force Melissa to confront the fiercest, most unrelenting monster of all: herself. “…a tale that will leave readers squirming in discomfort but unable to stop turning the pages” –Booklist
Download or read book The Magic Spectacles written by James P. Blaylock and published by Jabberwocky Literary Agency, Inc.. This book was released on 2012-08-12 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A YA adventure from World Fantasy Award winning author James P. Blaylock. A suddenly appearing curiosity shop owned by a small man who might, or might not, be the Man in the Moon; a pair of strange spectacles buried in a fishbowl full of marbles; an old window glazed with sea-green glass found beneath a suburban house; and two adventurous boys who buy the spectacles and climb through the window into a land of goblins, ghosts, and rope ladders that reach to the moon... Who exactly is Mr. Deener, the fat man who makes magic out of bits of coloured glass, has a passion for glazed doughnuts, and whose seeming twin brother sleeps fitfully in an attic room? And who are the little men who ride out of the forest on windblown sycamore leaves in order to whisper into Mr. Deener's ear? Is Mr. Deener, like a fallen Humpty Dumpty, broken apart? John and Danny need to know. To find their way home they'll have to put Mr. Deener back together again and solve the mystery of the sleeping land - a task that leads them to the pool of reflections in the deep woods and ultimately to a house built of light and magic and memory that sits at the edge of the heart's ocean. PRAISE FOR JAMES P. BLAYLOCK: "Blaylock is one of the most brilliant of that new generation of fabulist writers." -- Washington Post Book World "Blaylock allows us to see the mundane world through new eyes, to perceive the familar as strange and therefore fascinating - for what it is as well as for what it might be." -- Charles de Lint "[Blayock has]...a gift for drawing characters who are eccentric in delightful and original ways, whichever side of the war they are on." -- Publishers Weekly

Book excerpt: Sssshhhhhhhh... For Edwardian-era spiritualists and illusionists, silence is more than a strategy; it's a way of life. And when Max Grahame, a bullied, small-town teen, discovers a secretive world of occultism and séances right under his nose, he can hardly contain his excitement. But as Max begins his conjurer's lessons in earnest, his newfound knowledge exposes the group's dark and deeply sinister designs, leading a game of supernatural cat and mouse that takes him from the ancient hills of rural Georgia and the mystic plains of the Midwest to fin-de-siècle Manhattan...and beyond. Impeccably researched and wildly imaginative, The Occultists is a darkly riveting historical fantasy in which magic is terrifying, and annihilation is closer than anyone can ever imagine.
