Book excerpt: Welcome to Blackbirch. It's a place no one forgets. Except for Josh Taylor. The fatal car crash took more than seventeen-year-old Josh's parents, it stole his memories and returned him to his birthplace, Blackbirch, a tourist town steeped in a history of witchcraft. Amongst friends he's forgotten and a life he doesn't want, Josh is haunted by nightmares so believable he swears the girl in his dreams is real. Kallie is so captivating he ignores her blood-stained hands, but he can't overlook the blue glow summoned to her skin. Kallie says it's an ancient magic they share, and a secret worth hiding because as Josh discovers, they aren't the only gifted ones. To restore his memories and find the true cause of the car accident, he must learn what's real? And what secrets Blackbirch has buried in its woods.

Pando is a Quaking Aspen colony that is 108 acres wide (about the size of 83 football fields!). It is technically one tree. Imagine developing a spiritual connection with a tree in a way that exceeds visual perception; where learning its meaning and value simultaneously improves your own mental and physical wellness. Throughout history, floriographies--flower dictionaries--have gained notoriety for regulating human emotions and giving depth, symbolism, and meaning to extremely delicate aspects of nature. Following the success of The Complete Language of Herbs and its predecessor The Complete Language of Flowers, author S. Theresa Dietz continues this custom with The Complete Language of Trees.

It is a story of the history of technology, in the form of telescopes, lenses, detectors, calculators, clocks and computers over 170 years.
