He''s fought for two years in the sweltering North, never complained, gave everything to his training from Raylynn Westwind-favorite of Prince Baldair, and now has a chance to embark on a special mission that could be his ticket into the Golden Guard.Nothing is going to get in his way, especially not a young upstart.Daniel is a man of modest aspirations. All he wants is to earn a fair soldier''s wage to support a future life for the woman of his dreams when he returns from the war. It isn''t until he''s roped into Craig''s mission that he learns those in power have even noticed his skill with the sword.Their orders to deliver a missive to the front lines should be easy for the two capable men. But when personalities clash things quickly go awry and to get out of the tricky situation they find themselves in, they''ll have to depend on the one person they would rather avoid: each other.In this story about adventure, sword & sorcery, and unlikely friendships, follow Craig and Daniel as they traverse the wild and dangerous jungles of the North.About the Series: The Golden Guard Trilogy is a young adult, epic fantasy, with themes of sword and sorcery and coming of age.

    Book Synopsis'Peter Pan' is a classic tale enjoyed by children for more than 100 years, although these days, it is better known through various movie adaptions that have been made from it.  And yet, as they say, the 'book is better than the movie.' Why?  Because movie makers are notorious for making changes to the books they are based on, and these changes tend to take away from the magic the author poured into the original. It is unfortunately the case that with 'Peter Pan,' even the book has been adapted many times, too. Well, this is your chance to read the tale as it was originally written with its original illustrations, drinking in the magic that started it all.  With even the cover being inspired by the original, this edition is about as close as you can get to capturing the original thrill of 'Peter Pan.''Peter Pan' was originally published in 1911 by J. M. Barrie with the title, 'Peter and Wendy.'  This edition is carefully constructed from that original text. It also contains the original illustrations by F. D. Bedford.

    Book SynopsisFresh off a fearsome encounter with the Neverland crocodile, Jocelyn Hook decides the most practical plan is to hunt down her father''s famous fortune. After all, she''ll need the gold to fund her adventuring in the future. (And luckily, Hook left her the map.)But the map proves to be a bit harder to crack than Jocelyn had hoped, and she''s convinced that the horrible Peter Pan might be the only one with the answers. Of course, he doesn''t really feel like helping her, so Jocelyn takes the only reasonable course of action left to her: she kidnaps his mother. Evie, though, is absolutely thrilled to be taken prisoner, so Jocelyn''s daring ploy doesn''t have quite the effect she''d planned for.Along with the problem of her all-too-willing captive, Jocelyn must also contend with Captain Krueger, whose general policy is that no deed is too dastardly when it comes to stealing Hook''s treasure. And with the ever-shifting Whens of the Neverland working against her as well, J

And soon it becomes clear that treasure hunting is a dangerous business...Jewell Parker Rhodes has written a version of Treasure Island like none you've never seen one that takes the reader through little-known Black history, and under the city of Manhattan itself.
