Troll Wars
Author: Charles G Dyer
Publisher: BookCountry
ISBN: 1463001649
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
It is the end of the Dark Ages. Macans (a.k.a. Gnomes) live peacefully and mind their own business. While most of the men are out on patrol, Trolls kidnap Brodo’s wife Ada and his sons, Morel and Rada. Led by Toki, a small group of Macans track the kidnappers through the forest to a cave at the foot of a mountain range. The ensuing battle, together with an earlier similar attack, marks the beginning of a war of attrition. Trolls are five times bigger than Macans but they are rather stupid and somewhat cowardly. Intelligence, bravery, ingenuity, poisoned arrows and a little bit of magic gives the Macans a small advantage. Trolls usually operate in pairs or small groups but a crackpot king has organised them more and formed a small army. This seriously undermines the Macans’ superiority. Read this action-packed drama to see how things turn out...

Girls Made of Snow and Glass
Author: Melissa Bashardoust
Publisher: Flatiron Books
ISBN: 1250134692
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Melissa Bashardoust’s acclaimed debut novel Girls Made of Snow and Glass is “Snow White as it’s never been told before...a feminist fantasy fairy tale not to be missed” (BookPage)! “Utterly superb.” —ALA Booklist, starred review “Dark, fantastical, hauntingly evocative.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review “An empowering and progressive original retelling.” —SLJ, starred review Sixteen-year-old Mina is motherless, her magician father is vicious, and her silent heart has never beat with love for anyone—has never beat at all, in fact, but she’d always thought that fact normal. She never guessed that her father cut out her heart and replaced it with one of glass. When she moves to Whitespring Castle and sees its king for the first time, Mina forms a plan: win the king’s heart with her beauty, become queen, and finally know love. The only catch is that she’ll have to become a stepmother. Fifteen-year-old Lynet looks just like her late mother, and one day she discovers why: a magician created her out of snow in the dead queen’s image, at her father’s order. But despite being the dead queen made flesh, Lynet would rather be like her fierce and regal stepmother, Mina. She gets her wish when her father makes Lynet queen of the southern territories, displacing Mina. Now Mina is starting to look at Lynet with something like hatred, and Lynet must decide what to do—and who to be—to win back the only mother she’s ever known...or else defeat her once and for all. Entwining the stories of both Lynet and Mina in the past and present, Girls Made of Snow and Glass traces the relationship of two young women doomed to be rivals from the start. Only one can win all, while the other must lose everything—unless both can find a way to reshape themselves and their story.
