        by Lindsey Parnell

Climaxing in the confession of the act that irreversibly altered her life and those closest to her, Dogwood is Harper’s story, the one she can’t forget and the one she cannot speak.

        by Carol Coven Grannick

        Eleven-year-old Reeni’s world is changing. Her star-of-the-senior-class, college-bound sister has no time for her, sixth grade is full of girls into makeup and diets and crushes, and something deep inside tells Reeni it’s time to become more than a shy girl in the shadows. But when she commits to dancing a solo for her retiring ballet teacher’s final recital, her lifelong fear of performing expands along with her newly-changing body. Lunch friends convince Reeni that a diet will give her courage and self-confidence, but the diet wreaks havoc with Reeni’s life. She lies to her parents, breaks up with her best friend, and loses focus on school work and dance. Reeni faces a painful choice: should she break her commitment to solo and quit dance?

If Heaven desires the very earth be burned, what place can those below hope for, when the flames come for them? The Falkyn sisters bear a burden and a legacy. Their mother, the imperial magiel of the kingdom of Orumon, protects her people from the horrors of the afterlife by calling upon the Gods with a precious Prayer Stone. But war among the kingdoms has brought fire and destruction to their sheltered world.

Battle tactician. Magic wielder. Driven by different ambitions, Meg, Janat, and Rennika are destined to become all these and more. To reclaim their birth right, they must overcome doubtful loyalties within a rising rebellion; more, they must challenge a dogma-driven chancellor's influence on the prince raised to inherit his father's war: a prince struggling to unravel the mystery of his brother's addiction to Heaven.

The two suddenly reappeared in Berlin after having shunned Eva and Matea for ten years, because they had separated the baby witches. The grannies claim they want to help Elli and Idi become real witches, but all they really do is selfish hocus pocus: At Idi’s swimming contest in Hamburg they make her swim way too fast and Idi thinks Elli used her magical powers. She is furious and tells Elli to leave her alone. Thomas too is very angry and says that he will have to rethink moving to Berlin, if the grannies continue to interfere with their lives.

      • The Second Penis

        by J.D.B.

        Londinyia: a Capital in Crisis.  Gripped by a species of perversion without parallel in the long, sordid annals of the Alpha Male. As the Decency Tax extends across all districts and zones, the Emancipation Party declares war on the deviant insurgency. Amid the vast armoury of weapons employed, the Proctallator, irSpex and the notorious Schnuffler, stand primed to unleash an avalanche of moral fury. Meanwhile, the Spectre of Deceit looms over the Party HQ, the Pyramex, rocked by  dysfunctional mandroids, a Steering Committee mired in scandal and mutiny among the D-Squad ranks. Only Corporal Lillian Scarpello and her loyal beta-adjutant, Sir Lucien Picene, it seems, stand between Londinyia – and the Abyss. The explanation: The Second Penis is a satire on the City of London and its assumptions about behaviour, and supposed patterns of normality, taken to an absurd level. The author: (location unknown) lives in a shed in Myrddin’s Precinct where he communes with drunken spirits and entities, and launches vitriolic assaults against the Satanic Inertias of the Capital, soon to be revisited in The Gnat.  A series of endless night-shifts in the Ancient City of London drives him to the terrifying conclusion that its entire existence is a Hoax – a bankrupt Government, media and economy imprisoned in a Tower of Babble.  But can a man certified as insane – twice – complete his mission to rescue the intellectual heritage of his Nation?  Who knows.  For now, he sleeps amid the empty quarts and flasks, waiting to spring forth from his chrysalis...

        CONFIDENT UNDER PRESSURE

        Discover the Hidden Advantages of Stress

        by Rick Lewis

        The vast majority of “stress less” books are concerned with the modern problem of too much stress and how to reduce it. Not this one Confident Under Pressure is about the advantages of stress, clarifying the critical role that intentionally engaged stress plays in personal and professional development. Author Rick Lewis makes his living by putting leaders, executives and organizational teams into challenging situations to help them see the habitual ways they respond to stress. He then offers unique guidance in the practice of “stress production,” rather than stress reduction – revealing how to make a dynamic turnaround, an attitude of YES to stress.  Confident Under Pressure weaves colorful personal stories, recent neuroscience, the research of human performance experts, and the inspiration of leading business executives into a compelling and lucid argument for moving toward stress, conflict and change in order to become more creative, effective and happy in life, on the way to making our highest contribution in the world. The result is an eminently readable and practical book that anyone can use, at home, on the job, and in one-on-one relationships.The author has been a corporate consultant for over twenty years, with contracts with over 500 corporations, associations and government agencies. He has presented to audiences that have included Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, the Prime Minister of Canada, and worked with CEOs, dignitaries, and government organizations from The Federal Reserve Bank to the International Board of Mastercard. The result of this lifetime of experience - both successes and failures - is distilled within this book.
