All her life, Liesl has heard tales of the beautiful, dangerous Goblin King. They've enraptured her spirit and inspired her musical compositions. Now eighteen, Liesl can't help but feel that her musical dreams and childhood fantasies are slipping away.But when her sister is taken by the Goblin King, Liesl must journey to the Underground to save her. Drawn to the strange, captivating world she finds-and the mysterious man who rules it-she soon faces an impossible decision. With time and the old laws working against her, Liesl must discover who she truly is before her fate is sealed.

Six months after the end of Wintersong, Liesl is working toward furthering both her brother's and her own musical careers. Although she is determined to look forward and not behind, life in the world above is not as easy as Liesl had hoped. Her younger brother Josef is cold, distant, and withdrawn, while Liesl can't forget the austere young man she left beneath the earth, and the music he inspired in her. When troubling signs arise that the barrier between worlds is crumbling, Liesl must return to the Underground to unravel the mystery of life, death, and the Goblin King-who he was, who he is, and who he will be. What will it take to break the old laws once and for all? What is the true meaning of sacrifice when the fate of the world-or the ones Liesl loves-is in her hands?

Sailor Moon meets Cinder in this first entry in a new, richly imagined fantasy series full of romance, adventure and kick-a** heroines, from the author of New York Times bestselling debut Wintersong! Magic flickers. Love flames. Chaos reigns. Magic is forbidden throughout the Morning Realms. Magicians are called abomination, and blamed for the plague of monsters that razed the land twenty years before. Jin Zhara already had enough to worry about-appease her stepmother's cruel whims, looking after her blind younger sister, and keeping her own magical gifts under control-without having to deal with rumours of monsters re-emerging in the marsh. But when a chance encounter with an easily flustered young man named Han brings her into contact with a secret magical liberation organisation called the Guardians of Dawn, Zhara realises there may be more to these rumours than she thought. A mysterious plague is corrupting the magicians of Zanhei and transforming them into monsters, and the Guardians of Dawn believe a demon is responsible. In order to restore harmony and bring peace to the world, Zhara must discover the elemental warrior within, lest the balance between order and chaos is lost forever.

The Origin and Evolution of Galaxies is the outstanding problem of modern cosmology. Fortunately. we have a firm cosmological framework on which to base our theories (the hot big bang) and recently there has been substantial progress in providing observations which potentially can constrain these theories. The problem of galaxy formation is. as a consequence. one involving many diverse branches of physics and astrophysics. It has been the aim of the school. and this compendium of lectures and seminars. to bring together these diverse aspects at a level enabling research workers to understand what is going on in other corners of the subject and to see how progress in each area impinges on the others. We are grateful to the contributors to this volume for allowing us considerable editorial license with their articles. We have attempted to provide a representative sample of the talks that were given at the school besides the texts of the invited lecturers. It is regrettable that for reasons of space we have had to leave out a number of other contributions.

There are so many reasons that I wanted to write this book. One of them is found right there in the center of that word, transitions. Do you see it? Right there in the middle of transitions... it is "I"! That's right! "I" am always going through some type of transition. Yes, it's about me! It's up close and personal. My last book, Dreams2- Destiny" was all about how my life was divinely guided through many wonderful experiences in the contemporary Christian music business. As that book ended, I was "transitioning" into another career as the pastor of a church I founded in Oklahoma. Within that transition were several others and many of them surprised me and challenged me. I was learning every day how to not only survive, but how to get stronger in the midst of the challenges. We all go through seasons of transition and I have found out that it is easier to endure them and press through them when I hear how others have been able to navigate the storms of change. You will fi nd some stories of folks that have weathered the storms within the pages of this book. Keep in mind that this is not a book to "fi x you" but rather to offer you hope and the future that God has for you. It's all good! Joseph Jones is the Founding Pastor of The Landing Community Church and President of Dreams2Destiny Center in Glenpool, OK. For the latest updates and information go to www.dreams2destiny.com.
