Rumors are the lifeblood of Idlewood, Indiana. The locals whisper that
the De Lucas are witches, and that decades prior they cursed the
wealthy Barrion family as revenge for a love gone tragically wrong:
now, if a Barrion falls in love with you, you’ll die. If this isn’t
reason enough for wallflower Penny Emberly to stay away from both
families, she doesn’t know what is. But when Penny’s mom is in an
accident that leaves her on the brink of death, Penny can’t ignore the
rumors anymore—because the Barrion curse is real. And her mom is its
latest victim.
In order to save her mom’s life, Penny must bring together two bitter
enemies on either side of the feud and work with them to break the
curse. For star quarterback Corey Barrion, doing so would mean finally
saving his family from the magic that killed his mom. And for misfit
witch Alonso De Luca, it would mean convincing everyone in
Idlewood—especially Penny—that he isn’t the villain they believe him to
be.
But as the trio navigates Alonso's unpredictable magic, the tangled web
of Barrion-De Luca history, and an increasingly chaotic group chat, it
soon becomes clear that the curse is not what they expected. Did a De
Luca really curse the Barrions in a fit of jealousy, or is something
even more sinister afoot? Penny will have to conquer her anxiety,
wrestle with her budding feelings for Alonso, and delve into dangerous,
forbidden magic to find the truth and save her mom -- even if it means
putting her own life at risk.
The powerful Oyo has a Shadow Chasers knife…and only the cleverest and the bravest can withstand the Flame of Truth to win it back from her.
With the guidance of Zulaika, a helpful ghost, Nom, Zithembe and Rosy travel through the unknown terrors of the dream world to find Oyo and regain the knife.
Flame of Truth is the third in the Shadow Chasers series, an Afrocentric fantasy adventure for pre-teens (9 to 12 year olds).
In Liewe Heksie: Leesboek 1 kry Heksie ’n verjaardag, Heksie en Blommie Kabouter sing in die straat om geld in te samel vir Blommeland se nuwe hospitaal, en Heksie spog op die strand met haar unieke bikini.
Philip Pullman returns to the world of His Dark Materials with this magnificent first volume of The Book of Dust.
Eleven-year-old Malcolm Polstead and his daemon, Asta, live with his parents at the Trout Inn near Oxford. Across the River Thames (which Malcolm navigates often using his beloved canoe, a boat by the name of La Belle Sauvage) is the Godstow Priory where the nuns live. Malcolm learns they have a guest with them; a baby by the name of Lyra Belacqua...
The Book Of Dust trilogy will be a return to the parallel world of Lyra Belacqua for a thrilling and epic adventure in which daemons, alethiometers, and the Magisterium all play a part. La Belle Sauvage takes place 10 years before Norhern Lights, the first book in the original His Dark Materials trilogy.
