    Hannah C

    language (, July 2, 2012)
    In order to make himself appear more important, a miller lied to a king, telling him that his daughter could spin straw into gold. The king called for the girl, shut her in a tower room with straw and a spinning wheel, and demanded that she spin the straw into gold by morning, for three nights, or be executed (other versions have the king threatening to lock her up in a dungeon forever). She had given up all hope, when an impish creature appeared in the room and spun straw into gold for her in return for her necklace, then again the following night for her ring. On the third night, when she had nothing with which to reward him, the strange creature spun straw into gold for a promise that the girl's first-born child would become his.Rumpelstiltskin is the eponymous character and antagonist of a fairy tale that originated in Germany (where he is known as Rumpelstilzchen).

  • The Lantern's Curse

    Hannah King

    eBook (, June 1, 2020)
    After a bloody civil war, the country of Cronin prospers, while those who remain loyal to the old kingdom hide away in the mountains, hunted by soldiers who wish to stamp them out of existence. It鈥檚 only the Sustainers, a rogue band of youth, who dare to leave the mountains every year to find vital supplies for their families, and make trouble for their enemies. Seventeen-year-old Talitha has spent most of her life on the run and in hiding. When the band of renegades was formed, she jumped at the opportunity to live out anything besides her isolated existence. Like her father, Tali belongs to the Lantern Code, a sect of people born with the ability to sense and tame most life forms. Since everyone she knows was born into one of the seven codes, Tali thinks her own gift is as plain as her dull brown hair. Most people assume her kind are only suitable for hunting or standing watch. But while Tali鈥檚 gift seems useless to her, a jarring incident reveals that she alone possesses an ability that could change everything for the Sustainers. Ordered by her superiors to be instructed in an ancient, illegal practice, once banned in the wake of a tragic error, Talitha finds herself surrounded by expectations she feels unprepared to meet. The Sustainers are on their last leg, and her leaders are prepared to take drastic measures to turn the tide. Talitha is their last hope, but as she is tested to her breaking point, will she discover the dark secret being kept from her before it鈥檚 too late?
