Book Description
The terrible events of the past few years have obscured the fact that mankind has made the most significant advances in the past few years, perhaps since the dawn of time. The new discoveries will change the way we think about ourselves and others, and bring us back to the original, ancient concepts passed down through the ages. In coming years, when the full scope of these discoveries is realized, many will wonder how people lived and coped before this knowledge was gained. A Strange Message in the Cold Darkness is one of those stories, and many readers will recognize that they have unwittingly lived a similar experience or may be living it at present.

"A promising start to an epic, mythical adventure, with great characters and solid world building." –Rosemary's Books Brisbane Alaezdar thought he had found a perfect home in a small farming community of Valewood.

During the raid, the villagers see Alaezdar’s skills with his magic sword, Bloodseeker. In desperation to save the girl, the villagers convince Alaezdar to attempt a rescue so dangerous that they will all most likely die.

Dragon's Time
Author: Anne McCaffrey

Pages : 397
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Even though Lorana cured the plague that was killing the dragons of Pern, sacrificing her queen dragon in the process, the devastating disease has left too few dragons alive to fight the fall of deadly Thread. As morale at Telgar Weyr plunges in the wake of the widespread loss, and Weyrwoman Fiona and the harper Kindan struggle to keep hope from vanishing, a pregnant Lorana decides she must take drastic steps. Nothing short of manipulating time itself will undo the damage done by the plague. But attempting time travel could have devastating consequences—altering history, and destiny, forever. Now, somehow, Lorana must find a way to accomplish what seems impossible: bending the natural laws of the universe without wreaking havoc on existence itself. To ensure the future of Pern, she’s willing to take the fateful chance—even if it demands yet another, far greater, sacrifice. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Anne McCaffrey and Todd McCaffrey's Sky Dragons.

Dreams are sometimes the easy means by which we cross the threshold into other realms, the supernatural can infiltrate those dreams and speak to us to degrees that we either understand, or don't. When we don't, the message becomes difficult to receive. Sophie clearly didn't understand the dream that haunted her for a year now and left her feeling terrified. It was a dark, cold and wet place that left her gasping for breath and seeing a strange light in the distance that swayed back and forth, as the blackness closed in...and here she woke up.
