Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
In this unique and innovative debut novel, a diverse group of teens meet in the Canadian Rocky Mountains for a ten day hiking excursion. They take only their backpacks and a sense of adventure. Danny Michaelson, nearly sixteen, just wants to get away from his mother's boyfriend, the very man who paid for the trip. Though Danny seeks adventure, what he really must discover is man inside himself. Breyona Lewis, sixteen, wants to leave behind the dark memory of an assault she's never told anyone about. Though she seeks escape, she'll find she's a prisoner of more than her past. Em Michaelson, seventeen, was sent along by her mother to make sure her brother Danny doesn't get into any trouble. But in the backcountry, all Em really wants is a cell phone signal. Joachim "Wa" Martin, nearly sixteen, came from the streets of LA, a skateboard hero and parkour daredevil. While he loves the wilderness, the main attraction for him is Em. Shiv Malgaonkar, sixteen, pursues his passion for learning, eager to study every plant, tree and animal dropping he can find. But a terrible tragedy in his home life haunts him, leading to the toughest decision of his life. Bronson Gerk, seventeen, came because his dad forced him to. Overbearing and rude, he tells outrageous lies to boost his own ego. And when things go bad, he does his best to make them worse. Harvin McTavish, sixty-three, leads the youth excursions into the mountains. He knows every peak and valley like the back of his hand. Over the past forty years he's seen things ... strange things. But nothing has prepared him for what he'll see on this trip. The hikers arrive exhausted at camp six. But Harvin sends Danny and Breyona to collect water. Despite his weariness, Danny is excited to get some alone time with Breyona. The hike turns into a race for their lives when the two teens encounter a creature of legend—an eight foot tall beast they tag as "bigfoot". Swept to the secret city of Undermountain, Danny, Breyona and their friends find themselves caught in the middle of a war—between their bigfoot captors and horrific creatures called tangoga. Seperated from Breyona and frustrated with the intrigues of the bigfoot leadership council, Danny realizes he must act. During his desperate search for a way out, he uncovers the terrible plans the tangoga have for Earth. Plans that will only go into effect if they win the war against the bigfeet. Breyona, held in a bare "meditation cell," realizes she's being brainwashed by the bigfoot leader, Hanameesovenama. She's realizes she's being trained like a dog, all part of the leader's plan to bring the bigfoot race into the open, and to take over the Earth ... if they can withstand the final tangoga assault. To escape, to survive, to save the Earth, Danny, Breyona and friends face an impossible task. They must end the war ... and make sure neither side wins.

She becomes a princess, a witch, and the hope of a people—someone who has the power to change Trollus forever.

Book Description
As the second child of the Aridan imperial family, nineteen-year-old Guerline knows exactly what is expected of her: be unobtrusive, be compliant, and do not fall in love with her low-born companion, Eva. She has succeeded at only two of those. But before her feelings for Eva can become a point of contention for the royal house, Guerline's calm and narrow life is ripped away from her-in the course of a single night-and she is abruptly cast in the role of empress. Faced with a council that aggressively fears the four witch clans charged with protecting Arido and believes they are, in fact, waging war against the humans, Guerline struggles to maintain order. As her control over the land crumbles, she learns that the war is rooted in a conflict much older than she realized-one centuries in the making, which is now crawling from under the mountain and into the light. With the fate of Arido hanging in the balance, Guerline must decide who to trust when even her closest councilors seem to have an agenda. Darkly cinematic, From Under the Mountain pairs the sweeping landscape of epic fantasy with the personal journey of finding one's voice in the world, posing the question: how do you define evil, when everything society tells you is a lie?
