    Persephonice is given the mission of distracting the shadow elves who are bound to learn what is blocking their water source before they discover a space ship is sitting in the middle of their river. That's how all the trouble begins.Extended DescriptionPersephonice is an overseer--an observer and recorder of information about inhabitants of civilized worlds. Only she's lost her lifemate and cannot be an overseer without one. She's given a second chance if she can prove she's worthy if she can survive an inhospitable planet inhabited by elves and other mythical creatures she's only read about, very little of which is known of them except that they constantly battle amongst themselves and are not civilized enough to safely observe.The shadow elf, Dracolin, a warrior given the task of learning what is blocking their water source, doesn't expect to find the most unusual creature he's ever encountered--a red-haired, green-eyed land-bound mermaid. That's only the beginning. She understands and can speak his language, falls off cliffs without injuring herself, and swims like a mermaid--without the fishtail.Everyone is intrigued with her--except some fear her uniqueness and want to destroy her. That is the problem with observing uncivilized worlds.
  • The Elf

    Robert Mc lean, Rayuela Editores Asociados, Claudia Covello

    language (Elf Book Site, Sept. 29, 2010)
    Cassadonia, the place where Elves live, is the reverse of Earth; whenever a tree grows in the upper World, another one grows back in Cassadonia. And conversely, whenever a tree is cut down in Cassadonia, it also falls down in the human world. With the help of Gretheld, a funny troll, half-Gnome, half-beast, Andrew Fox is about to begin a journey that will take you from London to Cassadonia, and back to London, bringing Elves to our time and humans to the old days across the Mirror of Arritz, an ancient piece of art built by Kobold, a Dark Elf and the greatest mirror-maker ever. Since the very first human creation, Elves have been secretly guarding our world and protecting mankind. However, there are some Elves who hate humans and wish to recover what once belonged to the Elf race just before man appeared on Earth. The story is full of horrific creatures that will scare Andy to death, such as Cattivi “The Clown”, who feeds himself on Elves’ corpses and princess Loggry, a cannibal Fairy: among Trolls, Ogres, (sigue pero es largo, son todo monstruos inventados), who are humans that have been turned into elves. Here is where the mess actually begins. About 70,000 years ago, when God created mankind, the Elf race had to abandon the Earth and had to exile to Cassadonia, adapting to a whole new universe of rules in order to survive, thus here is where the mess actually begins...

  • The Could Shelf

    Amy Logan, Amy Belonio

    Hardcover (Full Heart Publishing, Aug. 25, 2019)
    THE COULD SHELF is a MAGICAL story about the power of doing all of our “could haves” and “should haves” while we still can. It’s about how quickly time passes, and a reminder to all who read it that those things you might be afraid to do, “Do them, take chances, and don’t ever forget – The more you don’t do, the more you might regret.”

    Eight years ago, on a rainy night in November, Evan Barrett's parents were lost at sea as a panicked Evan listened to their frantic Mayday calls on a ship-to-shore radio. There was no way to save them, no way to explain the deafening shrieks behind his mother's cries for mercy. Now, Evan has returned to his home in West Hook to search for answers to his parents' disappearance. Were they swallowed up by The She, the angry she-devil of legend that devours ships off the New Jersey coast? Or was it something else? Something more tangible but equally unthinkable?
