Book Description
Bugbears are a communal race traditionally associated with evil and with a deep hatred for elves. In order to teach their young, however, they keep samples of their enemies as pets. Enter Ptielieren, a relatively young adult elf, who learns how to survive in a hostile culture even as every moral he once held is stripped from him through a series of cyclically recurring abuses. Through painful trial and error, Ptielieren discovers that fighting against his enemies is not a valid tactic and gets him nowhere. He is positioned such that running away, too, is not viable. To find success, he must become strong enough in his sense of self to find peace and to find enough common ground with his enemies to sculpt them toward a better, stronger, more nurturing and accepting future. This, the first in the series, lays the foundation of the fundamental shifts he seeks to imprint, even as he forsakes what he thought it was to be an elf.

Archibald Lox Volume 3
Author: Darren Shan
Publisher: Home of the Damned Ltd
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 485
Book Description
The stunning conclusion of a thrilling new fantasy trilogy by the New York Times bestselling YA author of Cirque Du Freak. "Shan has created a far-reaching multiverse that boggles and beguiles, with characters that cannot fail to endear or revile. Beneath its simple, straightforward narrative is a deceptively complex, immersive experience that captivates the reader in a way only a master storyteller can." The British Fantasy Society. Following the burial of an old, dear friend, Archie returns to the Merge. He's enjoying his stay in a realm of waterless canals and upside-down pyramids, but when a day trip to a beautiful sinkhole goes terrifyingly awry, he winds up imprisoned in a brutal, isolated hellhole. With a collection of fellow locksmiths, Archie is forced to work on a plan to restore a deadly tyrant to their throne. As he desperately searches for a way to outwit the demons who hold him in their clutches, he must also struggle to come to an understanding of the strange demon he carries within. Everything is on the line, and Archie's choices will decide not just his own future, but the destiny of the Merge... This is the Complete Volume Three of the Archibald Lox series, bringing together books 7, 8 and 9 (and presenting them as a single storyline), Archibald Lox and the Sinkhole to Hell, Archibald Lox and the Pick of Loxes, and Archibald Lox and the Legion of the Lost. PRAISE FOR VOLUME THREE "This book is a masterpiece, the very epitome of the phrase, 'saving the best for last'." The Literary Connoissuer. "Cirque Du Freak will always be my favorite Shan series, but Archibald Lox is certainly giving it a run for the title." The Word Cubby. "The world building in this book is sublime. It's not just a great read, it's an experience." Rachel Hobbs, author of Shadow-Stained. "Yet another great Archibald Lox book... lots of twists, turns and tension." T. Higgs Reviews. "One of my favourite things about Darren Shan is you can never predict what's going to happen next. Loose ends from previous books were cleared up in ways I'd never even considered. Now that I'm finished, I'm feeling pretty lost." This Dream's Alive. PRAISE FOR VOLUME ONE "A brisk, entertaining tale that unfolds in a wonderfully bizarre world." Kirkus. "I read quite a lot during lockdown but nothing made me smile quite as much as these first three instalments in the Archibald Lox series." The Bookbag. "Shan has created an alternative world that is extraordinary and imaginative with fantastical creatures that both delight and horrify. A soon-to-be fantasy classic." The US Review of Books. PRAISE FOR VOLUME TWO "Shan has built an ambitiously original fantasy world populated with fully rounded characters who take us on unforgettably compelling journeys." Books, Films & Random Lunacy. "The first three books were unlike anything I'd read before, and book 4 truly proves that Shan is a master storyteller." Kelly Smith Reviews. "With every page, author Darren Shan weaves a richer and more colourful world." Addicted To Media.

Archibald Lox and the Pick of Loxes
Author: Darren Shan
Publisher: Home of the Damned Ltd
ISBN:
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 150
Book Description
When Archie finds himself trapped in a claustrophobic zone from which there seems to be no escape, he's thrown a lifeline by the most unlikely of allies. A showdown with a troubled royal ends in chaos and betrayal, and Archie is abducted and imprisoned in a cold, forgotten area of the Merge. With a collection of fellow locksmiths, Archie is set to work on an apparently unpickable lock, but if he manages to do what no other Lox has achieved, he might also seal his doom... Book eight of the Archibald Lox series by Darren Shan, the New York Times bestselling author of Cirque Du Freak and Lord Loss. This is the second of three books in VOLUME THREE - the final volume - of the series. PRAISE FOR ARCHIBALD LOX AND THE PICK OF LOXES "Chock full of action, tension, mystery and some dark, sobering moments, this is a worthy addition to what has shaped up to be a fantastic series." Rachel Hobbs, author of Shadow-Stained. "Yet another great Archibald Lox book... lots of twists, turns and tension." T. Higgs Reviews. "Book 8 is now my favorite of the series... I grew more and more infatuated with it as it went on." The Literary Connoisseur. "I wanted to cherish the last few books but once I got to Archibald Lox and the Pick of the Loxes, I couldn’t put them down and sped through it." This Dream's Alive. "Wow, this was the best book of the series so far." Carrie, Goodreads. PRAISE FOR VOLUME ONE "A brisk, entertaining tale that unfolds in a wonderfully bizarre world." Kirkus. "I read quite a lot during lockdown but nothing made me smile quite as much as these first three instalments in the Archibald Lox series." The Bookbag. "Shan has created an alternative world that is extraordinary and imaginative with fantastical creatures that both delight and horrify. A soon-to-be fantasy classic." The US Review of Books. "Archibald Lox: The Missing Princess is fantasy, mystery, and a coming of age story all in one. It's a gripping saga that will be appreciated not just by young adult audiences, but by adults who enjoy other strong YA authors who create fantasy worlds appealing to young and old alike." Midwest Book Review. "A perfect middle grade book. I couldn't put it down and read it in almost one sitting. I give it a superb five out of five stars." Addicted to Media. "High fantasy that allows you to step away from the real world and into a vivid space of wonder." The Reading Corner For All. PRAISE FOR VOLUME TWO "Archibald Lox is sure to ensnare, mesmerize, and astound readers of all ages." The Literary Connoisseur. "Shan has built an ambitiously original fantasy world populated with fully rounded characters who take us on unforgettably compelling journeys." Books, Films & Random Lunacy. "The first three books were unlike anything I'd read before, and book 4 truly proves that Shan is a master storyteller." Kelly Smith Reviews.
