As York's influence wanes, Jack finds himself wrapped in a maze of deceit; confused by the omnipresence of death and conflicting loyalties.

Her journey is fraught with magic and powers that must be overcome if she wants to survive. About the Author Melony A Wagner has been a lover of fantasy ever since she read her first “big book” in the fourth grade. After that, she started writing about worlds she wished that existed. Everywhere she went, she had a notebook and pen with her to jot down ideas or capture a vision that struck her. When she got to college, she used writing as a way to keep her mind organized and she managed to write a whole book. With degrees in Equine Management and Equine Journalism, Melony now lives and works on a horse farm, which has been her biggest dream ever since she was a little girl. She teaches riding lessons, trains horses, and manages the stable during the day, writing in her free time. Having a degree in Equine Journalism, she was able to apply what she learned to take her writing to the next level. She has a wonderful family who has supported her all throughout her journey of achieving her dreams, and she is fortunate that they all still live very close. Melony’s sister is her biggest inspiration, and they are exceptionally close.

Book excerpt: An epic quest, a dragon, a knight in shining armor—this classic children’s story is the perfect read for 3rd and 4th graders who love medieval fantasy. A magical toy castle plunges 10-year-old William into a wild fantasy adventure—where he discovers the true meaning of courage. When his beloved caretaker Mrs. Phillips tells him she's leaving, William is devastated. Not even her farewell gift of a model medieval castle helps him feel better—though he has to admit it’s fascinating. From the working drawbridge and portcullis to the fully-furnished rooms, it's perfect in every detail. It almost seems magical. And when William looks at the silver knight, the tiny figure comes to life in his hand—and tells him a tale of a wicked sorcerer, a vicious dragon, and a kingdom in need of a hero. Hoping the castle's magic will help him find a way to make his friend stay, William embarks on a daring quest with Sir Simon, the Silver Knight—but he will have to face his own doubts and regrets if he's going to succeed. William’s story continues in The Battle for the Castle, available as a redesigned companion edition.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of his renowned father, James J. Butcher’s debut novel is a brilliant urban fantasy about a young man who must throw out the magical rule book to solve the murder of his former mentor. On the streets of Boston, the world is divided into the ordinary Usuals, and the paranormal Unorthodox. And in the Department of Unorthodox Affairs, the Auditors are the magical elite, government-sanctioned witches with spells at their command and all the power and prestige that comes with it. Grimshaw Griswald Grimsby is…not one of those witches. After flunking out of the Auditor training program and being dismissed as “not Department material,” Grimsby tried to resign himself to life as a mediocre witch. But he can’t help hoping he’ll somehow, someway, get another chance to prove his skill. That opportunity comes with a price when his former mentor, aka the most dangerous witch alive, is murdered down the street from where he works, and Grimsby is the Auditors’ number one suspect. Proving his innocence will require more than a little legwork, and after forming a strange alliance with the retired legend known as the Huntsman and a mysterious being from Elsewhere, Grimsby is abruptly thrown into a life of adventure, whether he wants it or not. Now all he has to do is find the real killer, avoid the Auditors on his trail, and most importantly, stay alive.

Download or read book Dragon Slayers written by Jeremy Shipley and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dragon Slayers is a fairy tale for grown-ups. It's a comedy, fantasy-adventure epic for the drunken children in all our hearts. Venture through a world of wild imagination. Experience the explosive fury of Mother Nature on an untamed planet still finding its face as it spins around the sun. Explore the semi-Victorian, modern, medieval, sorta steampunk weirdness of what can be best described as a prototype to what we would eventually call human civilization. Magic, madness, violence, carnage, booze, and bong hits in a hostile and dangerous world of monsters, magical creatures, demons, dinosaurs, giant birds, and psychedelic drugs! It's a truly wild and fantastic adventure unlike any other. A kingdom already struggling with your typical medieval problems--famine, plague, delusions of grandeur--suddenly suffers a horrific disaster, leaving part of the city destroyed. Thousands dead. Scared shitless and dumb as a box of rocks, the psychotic king sends a very small band of farmers and fishermen into the wild to hunt and kill the dragons responsible for the carnage. They are sent forth to die under penalty of death; they're high as a kite and running for their lives on a hopeless quest to confront the most dangerous apex predators on the planet. Dragon Slayers was once described as Game of Thrones as though written by Mel Brooks.

Download or read book Gargantua and Pantagruel written by Francois Rabelais and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-10-26 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dazzling and exuberant moral stories of Rabelais (c. 1471-1553) expose human follies with their mischievous and often obscene humour, while intertwining the realistic with carnivalesque fantasy to make us look afresh at the world. Gargantua depicts a young giant, reduced to laughable insanity by an education at the hands of paternal ignorance, old crones and syphilitic professors, who is rescued and turned into a cultured Christian knight. And in Pantagruel and its three sequels, Rabelais parodied tall tales of chivalry and satirized the law, theology and academia to portray the bookish son of Gargantua who becomes a Renaissance Socrates, divinely guided in his wisdom, and his idiotic, self-loving companion Panurge.
