No-one can stand against his will, as he reigns destruction on the house. Amelia and her team must find a way to fight not only the enemy, but the very people they strive to protect.As the terror looms, Amelia’s heart is torn in two when she spies Trenton in another’s arms. Comforted by a new and unexpected teammate, she finds herself thrust into a new level of adrenaline and adventure, in the arms of a Shifter. Among the danger is a time of celebration, where two of Amelia’s friends solidify their relationship in a ceremony none of them could ever forget. The House becomes a fortress of sanctuary and of hostility, as fires explode, minds are assaulted, and hope fades. While the world pulls the team apart, Amelia must find the strength to keep them together, and decide: should she surrender and give the enemy what he wants, or fight side by side with her friends, knowing all will not survive?

Warriors who have been tasked to repair the light within Earth. An impossible mission that only becomes possible after they discover the gifts that reside within their shadow selves. Gifts that can only be unlocked by traveling the maze of light that is as much outside of them as inside of them.A book for children and teens of all ages, especially those who feel a little different on the inside and/or outside.

What a relief when the old story-book is republished and the characters who live inside it suddenly discover they have Readers again -- lots of Readers!Princess Sylvie finds herself rushing to get to her place whenever a new Reader -- whether in Boston or Bangkok -- opens the book. Her mother, the queen, is especially frazzled when the popular story is loaded onto the Web, a weightless, virtual world of unforeseen challenges. To cope with the stress, Sylvie convinces the Writer to add a new character, who gives yoga instruction to the storybook's cast in those moments when they have time off. But stress proves the least of their problems as strange things start happening -- words get changed around, scenes disappear -- and Sylvie and her friends must launch themselves into the labyrinth of cyberspace to confront a twenty-first-century evil that threatens to destroy their world.

We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
