Dis al Maart. Mieke het nog nie met Fen gepraat vandat hy koshuis toe is nie. Hy bel nie, kom nie naweke huis toe nie. Op Mtwana hang daar 'n skadu van onsekerheid.
Die Phiri-bende is oorkant die rivier aktief. Hulle teiken hoofsaaklik olifante. Mieke sit haar voet neer en bel vir Fen by die koshuis.
'n Boelie gryp sy foon en 'n bakleiery breek uit. In die gestoei breek Fen sy spanmaat, Jock, se neus. Fen én Jock word geskors. Hulle straf: twee weke se harde arbeid op Mtwana.
Die opvolgverhaal van Die Brief Vir Die Koning.
’n Jong ridder. ’n Betowerde woud. ’n Lewensgevaarlike soektog.
Een van die koning se ridders word vermis. Tiuri kry die gevaarlike opdrag om hom te gaan soek. Saam met sy vriend Piak vertrek hy na die Wilde Woud. Oor die Wilde Woud word vreemde stories vertel – van woeste rowers en bosgeeste, van ruïnes en kronkelpaaie wat doodloop, van geheimsinnige Manne met Groen Klere …
Die verhaal bevat al die bestanddele van ’n tydlose avontuur: ’n ware held, vriendskap, liefde, dapperheid, lojaliteit, ridderlikheid … en skelm skurke.

Skulduggery Pleasant has many enemies – many, many enemies – and people
try to kill him multiple times a day. But when someone puts a price on

beat. Not alone, anyway.
And where is his partner right when he needs her the most?
Valkyrie Cain is in prison, fighting to stay alive in a place where
everyone wants to kill her.
With an island of sorcerers ready to cut themselves off from the rest
of the world, a terrorist group enjoying unprecedented public support,
and a showdown looming between Winter Grieving and the Child of the
Ancients, Skulduggery and Valkyrie find that their options, like their
chances, are quickly running out.
IS THIS THE END?

Few books have been as universally cherished by children and adults
alike as The Little Prince. A beautiful slip-cased gift edition of
this touching and wise classic children's book, with the original
translation by Katherine Woods and full-colour illustrations. A
pilot stranded in the desert awakes one morning to see the most
extraordinary little fellow standing before him. “Please…’
asks the stranger, “draw me a sheep…’ And the pilot realises
that when life’s events are too difficult to understand, there is
no choice but to succumb to their mysteries. He pulls out a pencil
and paper … and thus begins this wise and enchanting fable that,
in teaching the secret of what is really important in life, has
changed the world forever for its readers. This stunning new
edition of the classic children's book The Little Prince, includes
the classic English translation by Katherine Woods and original
colour illustrations which will capture the hearts of readers of
all ages. Featuring bonus non-fiction content, exploring the
history of The Little Prince, the real-life plane crash that
inspired the story, the life of the author and more! Antoine de
Saint-Exupéry (1900-1944) was born in Lyons, France. He wrote The
Little Prince in the United States during a two-year self-imposed
exile from occupied France. A year after the book’s publication
in 1943, Saint-Exupéry disappeared over the Mediterranean while
flying a reconnaissance mission for his French air squadron. Best
known throughout the world as the author and illustrator of The
Little Prince, Saint-Exupéry wrote several other books that have
also become classics of world literature. Katherine Woods
(1886-1968) produced the original English translation of The Little
Prince in 1943. It was later followed by several other English
translations, but her classic translation is treasured by fans and
is often considered to be the definitive English translation. Her
poetic translation perfectly captures the enchantment and charm of
Saint-Exupéry’s storytelling.
