The city of Wyvern’s Rest has fallen…◆ Episode I: The Weave of FateThe former “Jewel of the Highlands” is now a ghost of its former glory. Those with the means to escape have already fled the city. Those lacking remain, condemned to bury their sorrow while the walls crumble around them. Lawlessness and poverty have overtaken the streets, and as the days grow longer, the shadows of the abandoned Outer Quarter loom ever darker.Ava spends her days tethered to her prison, the belly of an old, stone inn, overlooking the docks and the familiar seaside market. She leans on her friends for innocent laughter and talk of unimportant things. Every day, the tavern fills with the hopes and dreams of those fleeing for brighter horizons, and every day, Ava watches them leave with the simplest wish — to join them. Little does she know, her fate is woven to an enormous, crimson carriage. It creaks through the shadow of a forgotten morning, altering the course of Wyvern’s Rest forever. The odd-shaped man who emerges carries two simple things: an old, leather satchel and a sinister secret. Will he free Ava from her prison...or forever seal her tomb?

The first collection of short stories for M. E. Matthews, she brings together and re-imagines stories from her days of blogging. M. E. Matthews blends good old monster tales with stories of lost love. There are thrilling connections between stories; themes of the afterlife, guilt, unrequited love, and missed opportunities. “All Inclusive” is about a kid trying to unravel a mystery. “Beware of Hairy Men” is another take on a werewolf classic. “The Hour” contemplates the afterlife and what if we could get one more hour to spend with our loved ones. Other stories address the supernatural, ghosts, haunted houses and possession. In “Long March,” Matthews weaves a tale of a desperate woman and a marriage falling apart. Also included is an expanded version of “The Husband”, M. E. Matthews’ first short story and a Scattered Wrecks blog reader favorite. Compelling, eerie and thought provoking, these stories illustrate the full range of M. E. Matthews’ repertoire.

A compelling novel that touches upon the hardships that refugees face and their resilience in the most dire of situations, “celebrat[ing] the human spirit and inherent kindness” (School Library Journal). My story starts the day that my parents told me we must leave our adopted home forever. Because of the soldiers and the drought we barely had enough to eat and we could no longer stay to help the people in our village. The journey would be hard—to cross the mountains and get to the safety of the border and the people there who could help us. But right before we were leaving, I saw a fish in a small brown puddle and I knew I had to take it with me. Yet when I put the fish in the pot, I never realized what we would have to face. It never occurred to me to leave Fish behind. A subtle and sophisticated exploration of life, the strength of humanity, and survival in an unforgiving world, Fish is a story that will teach those who doubt that, when hope is almost extinguished, miracles can happen.ALA Notable Children's Book ChoicePublishers Weekly Best Book of the YearWinner of the Fidler Award[STAR] “Matthews allows just enough detail—and heart—to make miracles feel possible.”—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review “An amazing book.”—The Washington Post “Exciting and filled with crises and adventure… it is a story that celebrates the human spirit and inherent kindness.”—School Library Journal “Matthews is a compelling new voice.”—VOYA
