Bert and Will, the twin sons of the baron of Ambercrest, are best friends. They do everything together and can't help it if trouble just seems to...find them. But the baron is fed up and has decided that separation will keep them out of mischief. One twin, he proclaims, will stay in Ambercrest for the summer, while the other will be sent to The Crags -- a foreboding, rocky outpost on the edge of the kingdom. It is there, hidden in a forbidden black chamber, that one of the boys discovers a bejeweled and mysterious mirror. What is the precious object? And why does it make him feel so...powerful? Soon the twins' kinship is replaced by dark magic and deceit, and a kingdom hangs dangerously in the balance. What becomes of one who is ruled by the forces of evil? And can brotherly love conquer a consuming quest for power?

Book excerpt: When author Peddar Panga was young, his parents and grandparents shared animal stories with him.

Tales of the Mirrors gathers fifty such tales, rewritten with a modern audience in mind. Discover the dangers of living solely for your career in "The Royal Hyena Guard," where a hyena becomes so concerned with defending his pack's territory that he hurts those closest to him. Meet a raccoon carpenter on a campaign to cure work accidents-and a charismatic crab who fools a colony of ants. Similar in tone to Aesop's fables and the stories of Jean de La Fontaine, Panga's stories explore personal discipline, security, the pursuit of happiness, mastery of fear, and healing. Most of all, they celebrate the enduring power of love. Let Panga's tales sweep you away to a world where animals talk, feel, and act like humans. In doing so, they mirror the best and worst in ourselves, offering a chance to learn more about who we are and how we should act.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dan Majors returned home from the war, his heart heavy with the memories of fallen comrades and the horrors he'd witnessed. The train rumbled to a stop at the small station in his hometown, a place that once felt warm and familiar but now seemed alien and cold. As he stepped onto the platform, his duffel bag slung over his shoulder, he scanned the crowd for a familiar face. He'd imagined a hero's welcome, a ticker-tape parade, and the adoring eyes of his wife, Beth. In his dreams during those long, terrifying nights in the trenches, he'd pictured this moment countless times. The cheering crowds, the proud smiles, the embrace of loved ones – it had all seemed so vivid, so real. But as he stood there, the reality was far different. The station was sparsely populated, with only a handful of people milling about. A few curious glances were thrown his way, but they quickly turned away, their eyes filled with a mixture of pity and something else – was it disgust? The war was seen by many as a senseless waste of life, and Dan found himself met with a cold indifference that chilled him to the bone. He began the long walk home, his boots echoing on the cobblestone streets. The town hadn't changed much in the three years he'd been gone, but it felt different somehow. The cheerful storefronts and quaint houses now seemed to loom over him, their windows dark and accusing. As he passed by Mildred's Diner, where he and Beth used to share milkshakes on lazy Sunday afternoons, he caught sight of his reflection in the window. The man staring back at him was a stranger. His once youthful face was now gaunt and weathered, with deep lines etched around his eyes and mouth. His hair, once a rich brown, was now streaked with gray. But it was his eyes that truly shocked him – they were hollow, haunted, the eyes of a man who had seen too much. As he walked up the familiar path to his home, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was amiss. The small, two-story house looked the same as it had when he'd left, but there was an air of neglect about it. The white picket fence he'd painstakingly painted the week before he shipped out was now chipped and faded. The flower beds Beth had so lovingly tended were overgrown with weeds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The old, decrepit mansion nestled in the heart of the dense forest had long been the source of unsettling rumors and whispered tales of unspeakable horrors. As the sun dipped low on the horizon, casting long shadows across the overgrown garden, five friends made their way to the mansion, drawn by the allure of exploring its infamous halls. Jenna, a bold and adventurous soul, led the group, her laughter cutting through the thick silence that surrounded them. "Imagine the stories we'll have to tell after this," she exclaimed, her excitement palpable. "And the photos," added Alex, snapping a quick picture of the mansion before following the others inside. The foyer of the mansion was dimly lit by flickering candles, their light stuttering along the cracked walls and worn carpet. The air was thick with dust and the musky scent of decay. As they ventured further into the mansion, the stories of its sinister past weighed upon them like a shroud, and a sense of unease settled over the group. "Maybe we should turn back," suggested Marcus, his voice quivering slightly. "Nonsense," said Jenna, her eyes alight with a mix of curiosity and determination. "We came here to explore, didn't we?"
