"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to
make it come true."
--Richard Bach
Many teenagers feel that high school is one of the most
difficult and confusing times of their life. Life rides a roller
coaster as it hits its fantastic highs and then drops back down to
its unwanted lows. This is natural; it happens to everyone.
Unfortunately, many teenagers feel alone in the world. They wonder
why they were punished and everyone else's life seems to be going
so well.
The collection of poems in "You're not Alone" reflects the pain,
confusion, love, hate, heartbreak, anxiety, and loneliness that all
teenagers go through at one point and time. It reminds them that
they are not rowing the boat by themselves but rather, that they
have an entire crew rowing with them. They are all attempting to
reach a like goal: To make it through their teenage years.
Their wish will come true.

Padraig Kenny's The Shadows of Rookhaven is a story about family
and forgiveness, the sequel to The Monsters of Rookhaven. Shadows
are gathering over Rookhaven. It is the time of The Great
Configuration, a once in a hundred years event. Family and monsters
descend on Rookhaven from all over the country to take part. But
amid the guests there is an interloper. One who is disguised and
has an eye on their destruction. Meanwhile Mirabelle - part human,
part monster - discovers that to those from outside Rookhaven she
is not considered family at all . . . and, forced to search further
afield for knowledge of her true history, she risks everything -
and everyone. Praise for The Monsters of Rookhaven: 'A stunning
book . . . a brand new take on the monster story' - Eoin Colfer,
author of Artemis Fowl 'A magnificent, shadowy, gothic adventure

wildly imaginative story . . . a triumph' - Irish Examiner
Dawn caught the darkness unaware, the sun springing from behind the
mountains like a rabid cat to devour the moon's sliver. During the
course of the night the temperature about Heartbreak Ridge had
risen to exceed a hundred degrees. Below its western rim the
massive wilderness of Whisperland was hotter still. To the south,
the animals of New Eden had amassed sixty-some-odd deep and over a
kilometer wide. Across from them, the gladiators of the
Fleshstalkers and the Rebel Skys loomed as a formidable challenge.
In the backdrop, Warbird posed his bloodshot eyes to a trio of
figures at the fall line of the plateau-the great roan stallion and
his riders, the human trash who dared interfere with the inevitable
outcome of the epic battle. Galahad felt certain he was on the
threshold of an epiphany, just as he knew that nothing short of one
would save the kingdom.
Get ready for battle... With everyone still healing after their
encounter with the Faerie Queen, Ailsa MacAra had hoped to spend
time with her long-lost brother. But something strange happened to
Cameron in the land of the fae, revealing that the world is under
threat. Wicked and powerful forces have come to Ossiana and war is
brewing across the continent. There is only one way to stop it:
find The Four Treasures and get ready for battle. It's a race
against time, but will the magical objects be enough to defeat a
god?
