On the shores of Madra, tradition is law. For Princess Helena Rhodipus, this means wearing masks to hide from common eyes. For the people, it means bowing down to a king who cares little for them. Wanting to rid herself of the rules holding her back, Helena escapes into the city, unrecognizable without her mask. She only wants a taste of life outside her walls before returning to the only place she's known, but she hadn't counted on him. The boy who makes her forget about her brothers' worries or her father's wrath.

On the shores of Madra, rebellion has won. Her family dead or missing, Helena seeks help from the kingdom across the sea. Bela. She knows it from stories of magic and war, but now finds herself at the mercy of the intimidating Basile queen. Etta is everything Helena wishes she could have been for her family and everything she hopes to be still. Convincing the foreign warrior queen to let her stay is easy. Convincing her to train a princess she barely knows is something else entirely.

After the extinction asteroid does not strike Earth, the dinosaurs keep evolving - but so do the mammals. We mammals have achieved humanlike shapes, but now it's cold-blooded, magic-using reptiles against the hot-blooded, hot-tempered descendants of cats. In a heroic, Bronze Age world similar to 300, the Mrem Clans expand their rough-and-tumble territory, but now they face the Lishkash, reptilian masters of a cold-blooded empire of slave armies and magic.

After the extinction asteroid doesn't strike Earth, the dinosaurs keep evolving... but so do the mammals. We mammals have achieved human-like shapes, but now it's cold-blooded, magic-using reptiles against the hot-blooded, hot-tempered descendants of cats.

Griffin O’Shea is forgotten. Maybe it’s a good thing no one outside the prison realm remembers everything he did to earn his place in the dark kingdom. Now that he’s back in the world of the Light Fae, he wants to earn their trust, their loyalty, and that means going after the missing prince and princess of Iskalt, children who call him uncle. It means searching through the human realm for a vanishing village only he can see and a book full of dangerous magic and devious secrets that are better left alone.

Tia O’Shea just wants to go home, back to the palace among snowy fields where her twin brother amplifies the power inside her, and her father tries to secure the future of the throne through her marriage. A marriage she doesn’t want and refuses to consider. As a future queen, Tia only wants a choice in this one part of her life.

When Aurora finds an injured man on the battlefield of Bela, she takes him to her hidden cottage to keep him alive. It's her last good deed before the curse she's known was coming sends her into a thousand-year slumber. Aurora is ready. She has nothing, no one to miss. Until him.

Tyson Durand once knew exactly where he fit in life. As the son of the Gaulean queen and brother to the Belaen ruler, his loyalty was always divided. Except when it came to her. Amalie Leroy was his home—until she pushed him out of her life. When Tyson's mother summons him to Gaule, she sends him on a mission for the crown: find the outlaw terrorizing the kingdom. He never imagined his search for the criminal would bring him face to face with everything he'd lost.

There is only one way to be free of the curse. Etta Basile has to die. The only other option is to give in to the magic that has held generations of her family tied to their greatest enemies. And Etta refuses to die. Thrust into a tournament to fight for her life, Etta knows something the royal family does not. If they have her killed, they too lose something they hold dear. Their beloved prince. His life is tied to Etta's by a power they can't imagine. If she survives the tournament, she must protect him at all costs, despite his family's persecution of her people.

Tia O’Shea is finally going home. It’s all she’s wanted since her arrival in the strange land, and yet, leaving Lenya feels like abandoning her heart and the one who holds it. But all of Lenya is in danger.

Before she even turned 40, Florence Nightingale was the darling of the British public, the heroine of the Crimea. She could have sailed home to England and comfortably lived out her days. Instead she conducted a postmortem on every moment of her wartime service. She sought to broadcast her mistakes so everyone would understand what happens in unsanitary medical facilities. One hundred and fifty years ago, the respect we now have for nurses and the intense training that nurses must undergo was nothing but a seed in Florence Nightingale's imagination.

What does the Dalai Lama's life teach us? Certainly, he is a sterling example of turning adversity into joyful service. But there is more to him than that. He is also a model of innovation and adaptation. He has taken the tenets of Buddhism and made them relevant to everyone. He has found commonalities in the teachings of Catholicism and Buddhism.

Hua Minglan didn't fear death. At least not hers. What scared her was watching the people she loved suffer for nothing more than the history in their blood. Because as descendants fo the last Dragon Lords of Piao, the Minglans had dragon blood. The capital city wasn't a welcome place for anyone suspected fo harboring the ancient power inside them. No dragon had been seen in Piao in a hundred years, yet the legends called their blood royal. It was said those with dragon blood were fit to sit on the emperor's gilded throne.

Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to Dragon Rebellion and experience the compelling world of fantasy, myth, and legends.

The Kolob Theorem written by Professor Lynn M. Hilton allows us to see more clearly the celestial home we lived in before we were born and the home we will live in after we die. These places appear more real; they are made of matter, some of very fine and pure matter, and exist in time and space. Lynn, as a man of faith, unites in a single theory, scientific evidence and sources from the standard works of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to account for the form and structure of all of God’s worlds, planets, and suns.

I would never have been hired if they knew what I’d done. My past. St Ann’s is a strict environment, and after one year in the coveted position of head teacher, I know I can’t put a foot wrong. Some don’t think I deserve this. Others are desperate for the job themselves. And one of those people wants to bring me down.

Alexa, how does one reverse a curse? Because Emma Lenford’s horrendously hapless luck has not improved since her last few brushes with the law enforcement of Wisconsin. Now, though, there’s an old guy in a hot tub and a possible pregnancy to deal with (though, please note, both are completely unrelated), among so many more misfortunes. Emma Lenford is truly the unluckiest 17 year old on the planet. She keeps her sense of humor, though, through this series of seriously ill-fated situations.

I used to be a normal girl with a normal life. Well, actually...I can't really remember. Anyway, now I'm being dragged on these crazy secret 'missions' with a guy who has no idea what he's doing but acts like he does, calls me 'Nesia', and, for some reason, likes to 'pretend like he's in a cartoon.'
