Download or read book The Princess Knight written by G.A. Aiken and published by Kensington. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: USA Today Bestseller An Amazon Best of the Month Selection “Electrically fun...turns the usual fairy-tale class dynamics upside down...this is a book that encourages trust in people’s goodness, if not their patience or good sense. It’s light on the romance, but prodigiously good for the heart.” —The New York Times In New York Times bestselling author G.A. Aiken’s gripping new fantasy romance series, the Blacksmith Queen must confront armies and pretenders desperate to take her new-won crown. But with the Princess Knight at her side and a centaur warrior clan at her back, she’ll risk everything for victory . . . LONG LIVE THE QUEEN Gemma Smythe dedicated her life to the glory of battle. With her fellow War Monks, she worshipped the war gods, rained destruction on her enemies, and raised the dead when the fancy took her. Until her sister Keeley became the prophesied Blacksmith Queen, and Gemma broke faith with her order to journey to the Amichai Mountain and fight by Keeley’s side. The Amichai warriors are an unruly, never-to-be-tamed lot, especially their leader-in-waiting, Quinn. But when the War Monks declare support for Gemma’s ruthless younger sister Beatrix, the immaturity of her key ally is the least of Gemma’s problems. She has to get to the grand masters, dispel their grudge against her, and persuade them to fight for Keeley and justice. If her conviction can’t sway them, perhaps Quinn’s irritating, irreverent, clearly unhinged, ferocity will win the day . . . Praise for The Blacksmith Queen “It may be laugh-out-loud funny, but at its heart this is a story of a woman who cares deeply for both the family she has and the one she creates.” —Bookpage “Tilting more toward fantasy, this paranormal romance will be a hit with fans of both genres who enjoy tales that are lighthearted and humorous.” —Booklist

Download or read book The Cloud Princess written by Khoa Le and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The vivid, brilliant illustrations bring this simple pourquoi tale to life in a highly engaging way,” from the author of Sun and Moon Sisters (School Library Journal). Cloud Princess lives high in the sky, together with Miss Sun and Miss Moon, but she wants to discover what life on Earth is like. So one day she drifts down to Earth and sees the cars and the flowers and the people that live there. Unfortunately, sinking down to Earth sparks a curious change in her—she begins to turn into water! She dashes back to her home in the sky, but loved Earth so much that she visits every Spring—and brings the rain along with her. “Le’s illustrations are absolutely stunning, filled with vibrant colors and movement as the Cloud Princess explores. The title character is ethereal yet relatable. Her cloud-hair is delightfully voluminous; her face expresses her initial loneliness and then her curiosity and wonder. The plot has the gentle simplicity characteristic of folktales. The book provides an excellent springboard for discussion about storytelling and how cultures through the ages have used stories to explain their observations of the natural world.” —School Library Journal “All the sweet expressions and softly variegated colors throughout create delicate visual harmonies. There’s lots of eye candy in individual scenes.” —Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book Princess Grace of Earth written by A K Lambert and published by A K Lambert. This book was released on 2017-08-19 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fleeing the threat of civil war on her home world and a planetary genocide game played by an ancient and evil race, Princess Grace and her small band of refugees seek sanctuary on distant Earth. But their peaceful existence is shattered when one of her own betrays them. With Earth hanging in the balance, an unlikely hero comes forward to challenge the impossible odds. Young Adult meets Military Sci-Fi This story is a rich, warm YA story, underpinned by a complex, well-realized Military SF with intricate politics and thrilling battles. The two sides, Verceti and Trun are embroiled in a centuries-long war. Both have come to a grinding stalemate, but an unseen third force starts to tip the balance of power in the Trun's favour. In order to preserve their leadership, the Verceti mount a counterattack as a distraction covering them from fleeing. This includes the young princess, Grace. She lands on Earth where her training continues, picking up some native allies on the way. What I really enjoyed was the true villains, the Zerot. In military SF, often reasons are given for the conflict which just doesn't stand up to scrutiny. In this, it is all a game to them, which they bet on, which makes more sense than most reasons. The YA side did concern me as it's not my usual fair, however, the sheer warmth this side shows was compelling in itself, especially when juxtaposed with what you know is coming. A note, as this is a self-published book - the editing is excellent. (In fact, it is edited by the legendary Ellen Campbell, who provides a stamp of quality in her involvement) So, in conclusion - 5 stars for a brilliant first book. Compelling and Beautiful - Verified UK Amazon Customer I read this book whilst on holiday in Spain. I was looking forward to a relaxing poolside read but instead was suddenly transported to planets many light years away with evil (no… really evil) beings and to places quite close (only a few hundred miles away). Mr Lambert certainly has an imagination with a twist. There are some lovely characters that you can visualize – helped by the wonderful book cover artwork. The first book is grounded on earth (not to give the story away) and I think that this helps the reader flow into the second book (which is also brilliant). The story is compelling and beautiful and I am looking forward to book 3. An Interview with the Author Q. What makes the Zerot Infestation Series special? A. It's a mixture of things, really. It is the book I've always wanted to read. The villains behave in the same manner as the Japanese Giant Hornets (now they are nasty pieces of work). I wanted to create a unique story, which I believe this series is. You won't see "If you like so and so, you'll love this" because there is nothing else like this. My hero in the first chapter of Book 1 thinks "And what could she, a ten-year-old girl do anyway? Leave the war to the adults. "Unfortunately, as she grows up, she finds herself dragged into the forefront of the war and an unseen, colossal galactic confrontation. But the best thing this series portrays, so I'm told, is my vivid/weird imagination. (I've also managed to rewrite history in a couple of places, which is well cool!) Q. The series targets Teens & Young Adults. A. Yes and no. I was never impressed with bad language, graphical sex or violence in books, so the series is written with Teens & Young Adults in mind, with a feel-good factor. But this isn't just for kids. The Zerot, and especially Birjjikk, are despicable and their exploitations aren't shied away from. Q. Is the series complete? A. Yes. Book 6 has recently been published and I'm getting some great reviews. 1: Princess Grace of Earth 2: The Journey Home. 3: Prince Ventar of Trun 4: Planet of the Remaining 5: Prince Daviss of Nowhere 6: The Would-be Queen

Book excerpt: Based on supermodel Georgie Badiel’s childhood, a young girl dreams of bringing clean drinking water to her African village With its wide sky and warm earth, Princess Gie Gie’s kingdom is a beautiful land. But clean drinking water is scarce in her small African village. And try as she might, Gie Gie cannot bring the water closer; she cannot make it run clearer. Every morning, she rises before the sun to make the long journey to the well. Instead of a crown, she wears a heavy pot on her head to collect the water. After the voyage home, after boiling the water to drink and clean with, Gie Gie thinks of the trip that tomorrow will bring. And she dreams. She dreams of a day when her village will have cool, crystal-clear water of its own. Inspired by the childhood of African–born model Georgie Badiel, acclaimed author Susan Verde and award-winning author/illustrator Peter H. Reynolds have come together to tell this moving story. As a child in Burkina Faso, Georgie and the other girls in her village had to walk for miles each day to collect water. This vibrant, engaging picture book sheds light on this struggle that continues all over the world today, instilling hope for a future when all children will have access to clean drinking water.
