Book Description
Your myths and legends tell you Avalon is no longer in your world, hidden from you as it is, by a veil of mist. And so it is. But the veil of mist is within you. Remove the mist, you can. Remove the mist, you must. For, you see, Avalon is your birth right your rightful heritage. So come, come home. Avalon is calling to you. Come home. Caitlin Alexander makes an instantaneous decision to leave the fast, frenetic pace of life in London for the peace and quiet of a small English village in the hope of immersing herself in the writing of her fifth book. But her fifth book resists all her attempts to even write its opening pages. And then she stumbles across a story of the mysterious disappearances of twelve people from the village nearly two decades ago, and her fifth book is all but forgotten. Like a bloodhound on a scent, she pursues the story of the disappearances obsessively, relentlessly. And the more she uncovers and discovers, the more she feels herself being pulled into their story by forces beyond her control, like a novice swimmer caught in a rip. As she unravels the mystery of what happened to the twelve people who went missing from the village, she finds herself not just pursuing their story, but becoming a part of it . . . .

Book Description
"Avalon the Forbidden World was the only Terra-type planet ever to be discovered. But when the scattered remnants of Earth's people sought to migrate there, superstition and politics blocked them. After two thousand years, the domed colonies of a hundred barren worlds became convinced that Avalon was the one real enemy of their existence. Destroy that mystery planet was the cry! Jarn Tyblat, warlord of the Drusus Colony, dared to make the first trip to Avalon in centuries. He found a world teeming with wonders and enigmas--mutants, monsters, medieval knights, science-working dwarves, and a lost city in the Far North where all the answers could be found!"--Page 4 of cover.

Book Description
A NEW YORK TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR • A profound and singular story about a young woman searching for her place in the world, from one of America’s most original voices—the irresistible story of one teenager’s reckoning with society at large and her search for a personal utopia. “Effulgent and clever.... What fun.” —The New York Times Bran’s Southern California upbringing is anything but traditional. After her mother joins a Buddhist colony, Bran is raised by her “common-law stepfather” on Bourdon Farms—a plant nursery that doubles as a cover for a biker gang. She spends her days tending plants, slogging through high school, and imagining what life could be if she had been born to a different family. And then she meets Peter, a beautiful, troubled, and charming train wreck of a college student from the East Coast, who launches his teaching career by initiating her into the world of literature and aesthetics. As the two begin a volatile and ostensibly doomed long-distance relationship, Bran searches for meaning in her own surroundings—attending disastrous dance recitals, house-sitting for strangers, and writing scripts for student films. She knows how to survive, but her happiness depends on learning to call the shots. Exceedingly rich, ecstatically dark, and delivered with masterful humor, Avalon is a poignant portrait of a young woman who, against all odds, is determined to find her place in the world and find clarity in its remote corners.
