Book Description
Ora and Anya are two normal girls. They've always been normal. Until... Anya is desperate. Her brother, Dax, lies unconscious in a darkened room, a spell cast upon him. What can she do? Ora is miserable. She has to get away from the orphanage - by any means she can find. When they are brought together and discover a secret library, they learn that they may have the capability to bring Dax back from the brink. If they can only get into the Ash Chronicles and retrieve the three artefacts they need to save him, there may be hope. If they spend too long within the books, though, they risk transforming into characters, where the thin line of imagination and the real world merge forever. They must figure out what is right from wrong - and if they don't? Society will come crashing down. Anya and Ora must travel through unknown realms without falling into the trance of fantastical false tales. They will be separated, love will be tested, and death will take its toll.

Dancing at the Edge of the World
Author: Ursula K. Le Guin
Publisher: Open Road + Grove/Atlantic
ISBN: 0802165664
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 361
Book Description
“Ursula Le Guin at her best . . . This is an important collection of eloquent, elegant pieces by one of our most acclaimed contemporary writers.” —Elizabeth Hand, The Washington Post Book World “I have decided that the trouble with print is, it never changes its mind,” writes Ursula K. Le Guin in her introduction to Dancing at the Edge of the World. But she has, and here is the record of that change in the decade since the publication of her last nonfiction collection, The Language of the Night. And what a mind—strong, supple, disciplined, playful, ranging over the whole field of its concerns, from modern literature to menopause, from utopian thought to rodeos, with an eloquence, wit, and precision that makes for exhilarating reading. “If you are tired of being able to predict what a writer will say next, if you are bored stiff with minimalism, if you want excess and risk and intelligence and pure orneriness, try Le Guin.” —Mary Mackey, San Francisco Chronicle
