cause trouble in Minecraft's Stonesword Saga #3 - the only official

make sure that the mob stays safe no matter what! Meanwhile, in the

creatures is a much bigger responsibility than she ever imagined.

powerful witch and keep a bunch of unruly pets on the leash in this
exciting new Minecraft adventure. Based on the most popular video

Nie lank nadat die dertienjarige Miek saam met sy ouers in
Vreesbaai kom woon nie, begin vreemde dinge gebeur. Nie net
is die kusdorpie permanent toe onder digte mis nie, maar Miek
word skielik gedurig gekonfronteer met sy grootste vrees: 'n

afgrysliks geterroriseer word?
Darkus kan sy oe nie glo toe hy ’n reuseinsek by sy aaklige nuwe
buurman se broekspyp sien uitval nie. Die dierasie het sewe bene –
of ses bene en ’n horing – en dit lyk of hy wil kommunikeer. Maar
hoe kan ’n seun vriende wees met ’n gogga wat so groot soos ’n
hamster is? En wat presies het hierdie kewer te doen met sy pa se
geheimsinnige verdwyning en die verskyning van die bose Lucretia
Cutter met haar voorsmaak vir lewendige juweliersware? Die antwoord
is dalk iewers tussen die berg muwwe teekoppies in die bure se
woonstel – as Darkus en sy nuwe vriend dapper genoeg is om
ondersoek in te stel … Hierdie is die eerste boek van ’n
kewertrilogie van die jong skrywer M.G. Leonard.

of ignoring the quietly decaying French colonial house he's fixing
up, then college and freedom are hers. But soon Jade begins waking
up every morning certain that something has clawed down her throat
... from the inside. Then the ghost of a beautiful bride visits her
with a cryptic warning: DON'T EAT. When her father and little
sister don't believe her, Jade decides to scare them into leaving
by staging some haunting events of her own. She recruits Florence,
the daughter of her dad's business associate (and more of a
distraction than Jade bargained for) to help. But the house has
other plans. It's hungry. A home, after all, is only as powerful as
those who breathe new life into its bones. And this one is
determined never to be abandoned again ...
