Transmutation of species and survival of the fittest. Charles Darwin was on to something.Holland Forbes is special. This isn't just positive affirmation from her folks. She really is special. The people at Palmer Biotech Institute call her a Breaker. Someone who possesses the gift of Telepathy, Telekinesis or Teleportation, though nobody's manifested that last ability in a very long time. At the start of her junior year, Holli moves to the Orion Academy Compound, the remote section of The Palmer Biotech Institute Campus, designed to teach kids like her how to control their abilities. She's an overachiever, so this should be a piece of cake. Holli soon learns earning top marks at Orion Academy is not as easy as she thought. The training officers take pleasure in torturing the recruits, she's separated from her family, and there's something weird going on with her gift. There's no such thing as a fair fight when it comes to earning a coveted internship position. As the students claw their way to the top, new friendships are formed, others end and Holli begins to suspect that there are secrets housed at Orion Headquarters that could put them all in danger...

Ed Levine and the editors of food blog SeriousEats.com bring you the first Serious Eats book, a celebration of America’s favorite foods, from pizza to barbecue, tacos to sliders, doughnuts to egg sandwiches, and much more. Serious Eats crackles with the energy and conviction that has made the website the passionate, discerning authority on all things delicious since its inception in 2006. Are you a Serious Eater? 1. Do you plan your day around what you might eat? 2. When you are heading somewhere, anywhere, will you go out of your way to eat something delicious? 3. When you daydream, do you often find yourself thinking about food? 4. Do you live to eat, rather than eat to live? 5. Have you strained relationships with friends or family by dictating the food itinerary—changing everyone’s plans to try a potentially special burger or piece of pie?Ed Levine, whom Ruth Reichl calls the “missionary of the delicious,” and his SeriousEats.com editors present their unique take on iconic foods made and served around the country. From house-cured, hand-cut corned beef sandwiches at Jake’s in Milwaukee to fried-to-order doughnuts at Shipley’s Do-Nuts in Houston; from fresh clam pizza at Zuppardi’s Pizzeria in West Haven, Connecticut, to Green Eggs and Ham at Huckleberry Bakery and Café in Los Angeles, Serious Eats is a veritable map of some of the best food they have eaten nationwide. Covering fast food, family-run restaurants, food trucks, and four-star dining establishments, all with zero snobbery, there is plenty here for every food lover, from coast to coast and everywhere in between. Featuring 400 of the Serious Eats team’s greatest food finds and 50 all-new recipes, this is your must-read manual for the pursuit of a tasty life. You’ll learn not only where to go for the best grub, but also how to make the food you crave right in your own kitchen, with original recipes including Neapolitan Pizza (and dough), the Ultimate Sliders (which were invented in Kansas), Caramel Sticky Buns, Southern Fried Chicken, the classic Reuben, and Triple-Chocolate Adult Brownies. You’ll also hone your Serious Eater skills with tips that include signs of deliciousness, regional style guides (think pizza or barbecue), and Ed’s hypotheses—ranging from the Cuban sandwich theory to the Pizza Cognition Theory—on what makes a perfect bite.

Seven-year-old Bennett Gardner and his friends are being intimidated by the school bully. His sister Susie stands by his side as she and her brother meet a famous sports hero who had to endure some of the same frustrations growing up. This brother and sister duo travel back in time to witness an historic event and meet a remarkable woman who helps make Bennett’s dreams come true. A mysterious book could lead to trouble for the Gardner children and their new friend, once the police become suspicious of their behavior. After enjoying the hospitality of a US ambassador, Susie and Bennett try to find a way to make a positive difference at their school, all with the help of a pair of glittery, red-sequined shoes.

When the children find themselves surrounded by the Royal Guard and being evacuated from a palace ballroom, they question whether they will ever “see the light of day” again. But through it all, the five friends lean on each other for support, as well as their royal hosts, in an effortto find a way home.
