Book Description
In the first episode, The Enchanted Vanishing Sword, Toby was befriended by an old wizzard who showed him how to pass through a secret portal connecting his world with a world in the fourth dimension called Duppland. Toby, even though just a teenager, impressed the people of Duppland with his courage and wisdom concerning supernatural forces that the people of this land feared. Toby developed many special friends in this land and would go visit them from time to time, being careful not to let anyone see him pass through the secret portal. In this episode, Toby is summoned by the Governess of Duppland, Lady Zelda, to rescue his best friend Rain. She is being held captive in a secret temple and is to be sacrificed in three days to a hedious living stone monster created by the evil warlock, Dr Zodd. It is believed that once you enter the temple the only way out is through a very dark maze where the stone monster lurks. If somehow you get past the monster and find the way out of the dark maze you must get past a wicked giant who has been chosen by Dr Zodd to guard the exit and is not to let anyone leave the maze alive. No one in Duppland knows where the temple is or how to find it. It is believed that an old hermit living somewhere in the badlands of Axmar, knows a way to find the temple, but first you need nto find him. Armed with only a bag of dirt and a staff Toby sets out on his quest to save his friend. The way is long and dangerous. Toby has many bone chilling encounters with vicious mongols, man eating plants and huge flying reptiles. Once inside the temple he must find Rain, destroy the stone monster, find the way out of the dark maze and defeat the giant guard posted there.

The Nine
Author: Tracy Townsend
Publisher: Pyr

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
In the dark streets of Corma exists a book that writes itself, a book that some would kill for... Black market courier Rowena Downshire is just trying to pay her mother’s freedom from debtor's prison when an urgent and unexpected delivery leads her face to face with a creature out of nightmares. Rowena escapes with her life, but the strange book she was ordered to deliver is stolen. The Alchemist knows things few men have lived to tell about, and when Rowena shows up on his doorstep, frightened and empty-handed, he knows better than to turn her away. What he discovers leads him to ask for help from the last man he wants to see—the former mercenary, Anselm Meteron. Across town, Reverend Phillip Chalmers awakes in a cell, bloodied and bruised, facing a creature twice his size. Translating the stolen book may be his only hope for survival; however, he soon realizes the book may be a fabled text written by the Creator Himself, tracking the nine human subjects of His Grand Experiment. In the wrong hands, it could mean the end of humanity. Rowena and her companions become the target of conspirators who seek to use the book for their own ends. But how can this unlikely team be sure who the enemy is when they can barely trust each other? And what will happen when the book reveals a secret no human was meant to know?

Book Description
Four old friends confront their darkest secrets in this fantasy steeped in nostalgia, folklore, religion, and the seductive landscape of Southern Italy—by the Italian Neil Gaiman. “A tale of adventure, mystery, friendship and heart-wrenching beauty that will make you re-examine what is holy, what is true, and what is beyond the realm of possibility.” —BookPage Four old school friends have a pact: to meet up every year in the small town in Puglia they grew up in. Art, the charismatic leader of the group and creator of the pact, insists that the agreement must remain unshakable and enduring. But this year, he never shows up. A visit to his house increases the friends’ worry: Art is farming marijuana. In Southern Italy doing that kind of thing can be very dangerous.
