Charlie Daniels is more than six feet tall, allergic to almost everything, and has a pet dinosaur at home. His life in Arizona is relatively normal. That is, apart from the nightmares Charlie has...But when his dinosaur, Trike, gets kidnapped by a strange old lady and her cat-like sidekick, Charlie and his misfit friend Arty are sucked into a story bigger than both of them. Risking everything to rescue Trike, Charlie and Arty are flung into the past, landing in the chaos of New York City, 1865.Dodging the mysterious Nasten Cobblestine, and avoiding the perils of New York's nastiest street cleaners' strikes, test Charlie's wits as well as his courage. All he wants to do is reunite with his dinosaur and somehow find a way back home...As Charlie searches for Trike, he draws dangerously close to P.T. Barnum's eerie museum and the creature that lies within. Will he find Trike and get home alive? And who is the Ice Lady of his nightmares?

When Cassie falls head over heels in love with Daniel, she knows it will lead to disaster one day. Although she loves him with all her being, there is one problem...her being is not of the Earth, but of somewhere far more sinister. You see Cassie, otherwise known as Regan, is quite literally the Devil's daughter and that could spell the end for not only Daniel, but the whole human race.

Jenny never felt at home anywhere. Not at her house, not at school...Not even in her own mind.However, one fateful night she wakes with a jolt, surprised to find herself in the bathroom, with every part of her warning her to get out of there.But the human mind is cursed with curiosity, and Jenny stays for one second too long. Jenny is dragged into what she hopes to be a bad dream, but is in fact a new reality she wants no part of. A new reality where she has to adapt fast, or she'll die.Or maybe the people with all the secrets will just kill her instead? Shadows and Fire is a book where the unimaginable suddenly becomes possible. Where two opposites, magic and science, walk hand in hand.Is magic just a construct of the human mind, or is it perhaps a suppressed reality, ready to be revealed?But be careful, the human mind can only handle so much truth. When the veil of lies which surrounds us dissolves, we are forced to look at ourselves, and we might not like what we see.

Having moved from London and her old school, Trixie finds herself starting afresh. New town. New school. That'd be difficult for most of us at the best of times. But when you're someone with unique abilities, like Trixie, it's much harder. Especially if you don't want to be the weird girl, the one who is able to see and talk to the dead. How do you cope with that and still make friends? Luckily, for the first time in her life, Trixie bags herself a fun group of friends and maybe even a love interest or two (if you can count a ghost). All seems good until the murders start. At first, seemingly random. Until Trixie begins to see a connection between the murders and an ancient book of spells. Can she and her friends figure out who is killing these innocent girls?
