A new world where magic bursts through of every seam and crack. Where friend and foe alike are just as potentially vicious and definitely just as deadly. The trouble? How exactly does one tell friend from foe. As dreams give way to visions, Seth finds himself with a new mysterious object in hand and continues down the ever spiraling rabbit hole that destiny has cast him into. Dangerous threats arise and powerful beings calling themselves ally rush to the aid of the dwindling Roderick line, the Agatti clan, and inevitably the fate of an entire magical realm.Scarlet Legacy: The Divine Heart, the second in the Scarlet Legacy series, follows its fantasy adventure roots for young readers and leads them on an incredible journey of self discovery and trust. The Divine Heart explores a world barely touched in Ancestor’s Call and aims to capture the mind and imagination of readers (young and old alike) and take them on exhilarating ride fraught with danger, pulse pounding action, and living, breathing characters that leap right off of the page and directly in to your heart.

The Feltons are a family with a long lineage stretching back beyond the Norman Conquest. They now have a daughter, Ianthe, but prior to her birth Tobias, or Toby, was fostered and then adopted as their heir after he had miraculously survived the sinking of a refugee ship by a German U-Boat. Then, someone who is clearly Toby's twin turns up as an under-gardener. He had been fostered by a Scottish couple, now dead. There is now general and disturbed confusion on everyone's part - including the boys themselves. Stewart explores magnificently the nature of the complicated relationships, including those from outside of the family such as Toby's lover; the irony of the situation; and the many ramifications of class and culture in the absurd situation the characters find themselves.

I also had in early life, during a residence of nearly two years in the north of Europe, the advantage of studying the stable economy of large military establishments and in my recent trip to England, I took every opportunity to inform myself, by personal inspection, on the subject Of the horse in general, and particularly his rearing and stable treat ment; and in so doing, examined alike the thorough-bred, the hunter, the roadster, the farm, and the dray horse.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
