Double O Stephen and the Ghostly Realm
Author: Angela Ahn
Publisher: Tundra Books
ISBN: 0735268290
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
Ghosts, pirates and family secrets — Stephen gets more than he bargained for when he seeks out adventure in the ghostly realm, for fans of When You Trap a Tiger. Stephen loves pirates. What he doesn't love is his name: Stephen Oh-O'Driscoll. He believes when his Korean mother and Irish father gave him this name, that it was just one cruel setup for being teased. Giving things the proper name is important, which is why Stephen thinks that it's time to update the definition of "pirate." They've got a bad rep, and maybe they deserve some of it, but Stephen still likes a few pirate traditions, like bandannas and eyepatches — he's just not that into stealing things from people. He has the perfect new word: piventurate. A sailor who passionately seeks adventure. That's what he wants to be. When he gets suspended from school for doing proper piventurate-in-training things (using sticks to practice sword fighting), his mother doesn't let him sit around doing nothing, instead she takes him to a museum. At the museum everything changes. Stephen finds himself in a strange new place, face-to-face with a real pirate. A pirate ghost. Captain Sapperton needs Stephen's help to cross to the other side, and his former ghost crew are intent on making sure Stephen follows through, whatever it takes. Stephen is about to discover the true meaning of piventurate, and much to his surprise, his adventure will not only take him farther into the ghostly realm, but also closer to home, where long-held family secrets reveal surprising ties to the spirit world.

The Dual Realm

Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 9781899293964
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
One morning, at dawn, a woman is walking by the sea when a tidal wave suddenly appears on the horizon, approaching the shore at tremendous speed. In fear for her life, the woman races back into the town, up a hill, through a wood and takes refuge in a hotel. Initially, ‘Cara’, as we come to know her, is relieved to be safe inside its protective walls, but being unable to ascertain from the staff what has happened down in the town, or even to go outside again herself, she quickly finds her memories beginning to seem unreal, and that her need to know is much less pressing. In the dark corridors of this hotel, with only formal, de-personalised waiters, strange books, and confusing shadowy dreams, for company, Cara feels both oppressed and ‘at home’. However, when three other guests arrive, her interest in the outside world is suddenly revived and she is encouraged to contemplate the possibility of leaving the hotel with them, on their departure.

When her homeland is conquered by the mighty Alexander the Great, Roxana--the daughter of a mere chieftain-is torn from her simple life and thrown into a world of war and intrigue. Terrified, the sixteen-year-old girl of renowned beauty is brought before the greatest ruler the world has ever known. Her life is in his hands; her future his to decide. Without formal education or noble blood, Roxana is chosen by the Greek conqueror to be his bride. Soon she comes to know profound happiness and unyielding desire in her warrior's arms. However, being the king's consort comes at a heavy price. To survive her husband's treacherous kingdom, she must endure continuous warfare, deadly plots, jealous rivals, victory-hungry generals, and the stigma of being a barbarian. Persian blood will keep her from claiming the grandest title of all--queen--but her reign will seal the fate of an empire. History tells his story. This is hers.
