DETENTION JUST GOT DANGEROUS!
When Jack Digby is sent to Cyril Sniggs's Correctional Orphanage for
Wayward Boys and Girls, he doesn't expect lessons in how to fire
cannons and fend off pirate attacks. But perhaps he should, as the
school, some say, was founded by a pirate.
Even stranger, at the end of each year, the four worst-behaved pupils
are banished to the terrifying Sin Bin Island, where they must survive
for a week. Legend has it, the island was once used to smuggle magic
onto the mainland, but in over 300 years the magic has never returned.
Until now . . .
Love could be her greatest weapon…or her undoing. Brielle Atwater isn't sure of much, but she knows a few things: Having black wings is not normal.Selling her soul to the demons was a mistake.Lincoln Grey is the biggest jerk she's ever met…but not falling in love with him might prove impossible.When angels fell from the sky to war with the demons that ravaged Earth, their combined powers infected humanity. Now, the humans are assigned one of two fates, being either demon gifted or angel blessed. After wings sprout from Brielle's back at her awakening ceremony, she's sure she's an angel blessed celestial. It's not until she sees black wings that she realizes something is terribly wrong. Having sold her contract at a young age to save her father's life means she should be bound for Tainted Academy. That is, until a fallen angel unexpectedly fights for her to be accepted into Fallen Academy, the elite school for those that inhabit Angel City. She's immediately matched with her impossibly handsome celestial teacher, Lincoln Grey. Laying eyes on him, her first thought is that her time at the academy might actually be fun, but this theory quickly fades when she and Lincoln clash on day one. To further prove her admission into Fallen Academy is cursed, the entire school is thrown into chaos when an Abrus demon reveals that he knows Brielle's secret. Now, above all else, Lincoln must fight to protect her. To his surprise, the only thing more difficult than trying to save her…is trying not to fall for her.
Sure, love is hell. But it, s totally worth it.
In these supernatural stories by five of today's hottest
writers--Melissa Marr (Wicked Lovely), Scott Westerfeld (Specials),
Justine Larbalestier (Magic or Madness), Gabrielle Zevin
(Elsewhere), and Laurie Faria Stolarz (Blue is for
Nightmares)--love may be twisted and turned around, but it's more
potent than ever on its quest to conquer all.
From two students who let the power of attraction guide them to
break the hard-and-fast rules of their world to the girl who falls
hard for a good-looking ghost with a score to settle, the clever,
quirky characters in this exciting collection will break your
heart, then leave you believing in love more than ever.
The Tales of Beedle the Bard have been favourite bedtime reading in
wizarding households for centuries. Full of magic and trickery,
these classic tales both entertain and instruct, and remain as
captivating to young wizards today as they were when Beedle first
put quill to parchment in the fifteenth century. There are five
tales in all: 'The Tale of the Three Brothers' Harry Potter fans
will know from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; 'The Fountain
of Fair Fortune', 'The Warlock's Hairy Heart', 'The Wizard and the
Hopping Pot' and 'Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump'
complete the collection. These narrative gems are accompanied by
explanatory notes by Professor Albus Dumbledore (included by kind
permission of the Hogwarts Headmaster's archive). His illuminating
thoughts reveal the stories to be much more than just simple moral
tales, and are sure to make Babbitty Rabbitty and the slug-belching
Hopping Pot as familiar to Muggles as Snow White and Cinderella.
This edition of these much loved fairy tales from the wizarding
world pairs J.K. Rowling's original text with gorgeous jacket art
by Jonny Duddle and line illustrations throughout by Tomislav
Tomic. The Tales of Beedle the Bard is published in aid of the
Lumos (link to wearelumos.org), an international children's charity
(registered charity number 1112575) founded in 2005 by J.K Rowling.
Lumos is dedicated ending the institutionalisation of children, a
harmful practice that affects the lives of up to eight million
disadvantaged children around the world who live in institutions
and orphanages, many placed there as a result of poverty,
disability, disease, discrimination and conflict; very few are
orphans. Lumos works to reunite children with their families,
promote family-based care alternatives and help authorities to
reform their systems and close down institutions and orphanages.
