The breathtaking sequel to the No.1 New York Times bestseller, Immortal Dark. Like all ruinous things, he came from the abyss.
Kidan Adane has finally embraced her darkness. She's killed without remorse, lied, and broken Uxlay University's most sacred law by inviting elusive rogue vampires into Uxlay. Trapped with a violently unstable vampire, and reeling from her sister's return, Kidan wields her anger like a weapon. She vows to master her house and protect the sacred artefact hidden inside, even if it means working with her enemies and betraying Susenyos. As devastating secrets resurface from the past, Kidan and her sister, June, must finally confront each other and take their rightful places in the looming war.
After losing their parents in a horrible car accident, fifth-grader
West and his genius third-grade sister, Gina, try to cope with the
enormous change in their lives. While digging around in their
father's shed one day, they find some old boxes with the word
"NASA" printed on them. One large box contains their father's
unfinished motorcycle, and in a tribute to their dad, the children
decide to finish building it.
They also discover a top-secret file containing abandoned
blueprints for a tiny, silver box that allows people to travel
through time. When Gina corrects the scientist's miscalculations,
she finishes building the time machine and tapes it to the
motorcycle. Suddenly, West and Gina are propelled into the past
where they meet Albert Einstein.
With Einstein's help, West and Gina travel to the future and
discover the city of Atlantis. But when they try to travel back to
the day before their parents were killed, the time machine
malfunctions, and they arrive on the exact day of the accident.
Time is running out, but the Atlantians may have a way to help save
West and Gina's parents .

being once againdestroyed by Ostrogoth and his warlocks and more
importantly stopping someone very close to them from dying. But
first, they have to find the DragonsPortal and a spell to open it.
Jamie and Nicky see first hand the destruction and misery the
witch-finder causes in 1596. However, they meet the Brillare Seven,
the most powerful witches and wizards of all time. If, with their

her sisters found out about the Veil of Protection that could help
them? Will they once again save the valley?
Father Brown's son is stirring a commotion among all the denizens
of the meadow -- for he sets an armload of traps all around Smiling
Pool.
Jerry Muskrat and Little Joe Otter, with the help of old
Grandfather Frog, fix things up fine. But the traps are only the
beginning of their troubles -- for then the Smiling Pool stops
smiling, and the Laughing Brooks stops laughing!
Thornton Burgess (1874-1965) expressed his love of the outdoors
in this delightful tale of woodland and meadow.
