On the edge of a quiet village, where the stars seemed to hang lower than anywhere else, eight-year-old Lila lay awake, staring out her window at the night sky. The world was still, the kind of silence that felt magical, as if all of creation were holding its breath. Lila clutched a small, silver pendant her grandmother had given her. “This pendant will guide you to your dreams,” her grandmother had said, smiling mysteriously. Lila had often wondered what those words meant. Tonight, the stars were unusually bright, sparkling like diamonds scattered across a sea of dark velvet. And then, as she gazed into the sky, something strange happened—a soft light appeared near her window, swirling gently like a tiny wisp of starlight. Mesmerized, Lila watched as the light began to move, drifting toward the edge of the village as if beckoning her to follow. With her heart pounding, Lila slipped out of bed, wrapping herself in her favorite woolen blanket and sneaking quietly out the door. Her parents were asleep, and the house was silent, save for the gentle ticking of the old clock in the hall. Barefoot, she followed the light through the village streets and out to the meadow, feeling as if she were stepping into one of her grandmother’s magical stories. At the center of the meadow, bathed in the moon’s soft glow, stood a figure unlike any she’d ever seen. He was tall and graceful, with flowing robes that shimmered like threads of stars, and his face was kind and wise, as if he held all the secrets of the universe. This was the Dream Weaver, a being her grandmother had often spoken of in hushed, reverent tones—the guardian of dreams. “Hello, Lila,” he said in a voice like a gentle breeze. Somehow, he already knew her name. “Are you…are you the Dream Weaver?” Lila whispered, half-afraid he might disappear if she spoke too loudly. The figure nodded, his gaze warm. “I am. I watch over the dreams of all who sleep, guiding them through the night.” Lila’s eyes sparkled with excitement and wonder. “Why are you here?” she asked. The Dream Weaver’s face softened as he reached out his hand. “I have come to show you a place few ever see—a world beyond the stars, where dreams are born. If you’re brave enough to follow, I’ll show you the magic hidden within your own dreams.” Lila hesitated, glancing back at her village, at the tiny rooftops and softly glowing windows of the homes around her. But curiosity and a yearning for adventure tugged at her heart. She reached out, placing her small hand in the Dream Weaver’s, feeling an unexpected warmth spread through her. In an instant, the meadow and village faded away, replaced by a world unlike anything she had ever imagined—a realm woven of stardust, moonlight, and endless possibilities. As they drifted into this dream realm, Lila felt a thrill of wonder, knowing that tonight was just the beginning of a journey that would change her life forever.

Legends say that, tens of thousands of years ago, Whisperers were banished from the heavens, torn in half, and dumped on a mortal realm they didn’t understand. Longing for their other half, they went from being powerful immortals to lonely leeches relying on humans to survive. Over the years, they earnt magic from demons, they left themselves Notebooks with hints, and by pairing up with human souls, they eventually found their other halves. Humbled by their experiences, they discovered the true purpose of life and many were worthy of returning to the heavens. But many were not. The Dark Chronicles are stories that share the heartache of select unworthy Whisperers on their journey to immortality after The War of 2019. Can’t Dream Without You is one of those stories, in which we meet Steve and Julia, two such heroes. Steve isn’t a normal boy. He plays with demons, his soul travels to a dream realm at night using mystical butterflies, and soon he’ll earn the power to raise the dead. Al thinks that destroying him would do the world a favour, yet he just can’t kill his own son. Wanting to acquire the power that raises the dead before Steve does, Al performs a ritual on Steve’s sixteenth birthday. He transfers Steve’s dark magic to Julia, an innocent girl he plans to kill. But Steve is determined to save Julia and sucks her soul to Dreamland. From the dream world, he invokes the help of her brother to keep her safe. Five years later, Steve can’t tell what’s real or what’s a nightmare. Julia’s brother wants to kill him, a strange bald eagle is erasing memories, and Steve’s caught in some bizarre bullfight on another realm with a cop hot on his trail looking to be Julia’s hero. All the while, Steve and Julia must fight the desperate need to make their steamy dreams a reality.

“Field of Dreams was only superficially about baseball. It was really about life. So is The Baseball Whisperer . . . with the added advantage of being all true.” —MLB.com From an award-winning journalist, this is the story of a legendary coach and the professional-caliber baseball program he built in America's heartland, where boys would come summer after summer to be molded into ballplayers—and men. Clarinda, Iowa, population 5,000, sits two hours from anything. There, between the cornfields and hog yards, is a ball field with a bronze bust of a man named Merl Eberly, who specialized in second chances and lost causes. The statue was a gift from one of Merl’s original long-shot projects, a skinny kid from the Los Angeles ghetto who would one day become a beloved Hall-of-Fame shortstop: Ozzie Smith. The Baseball Whisperer traces the “deeply engrossing” story (Booklist, starred review) of Merl Eberly and his Clarinda A’s baseball team, which he tended over the course of five decades, transforming them from a town team to a collegiate summer league powerhouse. Along with Ozzie Smith, future manager Bud Black, and star player Von Hayes, Merl developed scores of major league players. In the process, he taught them to be men, insisting on hard work, integrity, and responsibility. More than a book about ballplayers in the nation’s agricultural heartland, The Baseball Whisperer is the story of a coach who put character and dedication first, reminding us of the best, purest form of baseball excellence. “Mike Tackett, talented journalist and baseball lover, has hit the sweet spot of the bat with his first book. The Baseball Whisperer takes one coach and one small Iowa town and illuminates both a sport and the human spirit.” —David Maraniss, New York Times-bestselling author of Clemente and When Pride Still Mattered
