In our world, science and mythology are mortal enemies. But what if a world existed where they were the same thing? In this first volume of The Relics of Errus, Flight of the SkyCricket, three sisters-Eli, Anna, and Rose Hoover-stumble through a window in the wine cellar of an old Victorian house and find themselves in Errus, a world where natural disasters give birth to mythological creatures-some harmless, some horrific. Caught up in a quest involving impassable deserts, dangerous jungles, dark mountainous caverns, and a menagerie of dwarfs, fairies, knights, and quirky scientists, they search for the mythical Well of the sea goddess Therra, which seems to be their only way home. Trapped in a world that births fairies from windstorms and dwarfs from earthquakes, everything rests on finding the lost Well... if it even exists. Both the pious and skeptic make their case along the way, but belief may not always be something you choose-sometimes it is something that happens to you.

Discover the opening of Rokan Boy through the eyes of the three Hoover sisters and learn more about Errus, a world where natural disasters give birth to mythological creatures—some harmless, some horrific.

If you can’t have unity, at least have courage. Eli, Anna, and Rose Hoover make their third visit to Errus, a world coming apart at the seams, a place where mythological creatures are born out of natural calamities. Nations at war, apocalyptic prophecies coming to pass, and once again the three sisters are forced to navigate it all in order to get home. Disastrously, however, this time they get separated. Trapped on the wrong side of the Ever War, Eli finds herself alone and in constant peril—dangerous creatures, rogue elements, and political machinations—lost in a city at war with itself. Will she ever see her sisters again? Will she find the courage to prevent the renewal of ancient hostilities? Will she lose her head to Azhwana justice? If she survives this, nothing will ever be the same. Welcome to Landembrost, a city being torn apart from the inside.

From the National Book Award–winning author of The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, the tale of a troubled boy’s trip through history. Half Native American and half Irish, fifteen-year-old “Zits” has spent much of his short life alternately abused and ignored as an orphan and ward of the foster care system. Ever since his mother died, he’s felt alienated from everyone, but, thanks to the alcoholic father whom he’s never met, especially disconnected from other Indians. After he runs away from his latest foster home, he makes a new friend. Handsome, charismatic, and eloquent, Justice soon persuades Zits to unleash his pain and anger on the uncaring world. But picking up a gun leads Zits on an unexpected time-traveling journey through several violent moments in American history, experiencing life as an FBI agent during the civil rights movement, a mute Indian boy during the Battle of Little Bighorn, a nineteenth-century Indian tracker, and a modern-day airplane pilot. When Zits finally returns to his own body, “he begins to understand what it means to be the hero, the villain and the victim. . . . Mr. Alexie succeeds yet again with his ability to pierce to the heart of matters, leaving this reader with tears in her eyes” (The New York Times Book Review). Sherman Alexie’s acclaimed novels have turned a spotlight on the unique experiences of modern-day Native Americans, and here, the New York Times–bestselling author of The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven and The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian takes a bold new turn, combining magical realism with his singular humor and insight. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Sherman Alexie including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

In addition to the ever-popular "Peter Pan", J.M. Barrie also wrote social comedy and political satire. "The Admirable Crichton and "What Every Woman Knows" are shrewd contributions to the politics of class and gender, while "Mary Rose" is one of the best ghost stories written for the stage.
