Champions of Solar Springs

Benjamin Ashford

Sinossi

In the sun-scorched sands of Sunvale Flats, climatology enthusiast Arwen and renewable-energy intern Keon dive into the bubbling world of geothermal springs. At the Champions of Solar Springs research station, they deploy thermal probes, unearth shimmering microbial mats, and learn to convert Earth’s inner heat into clean electricity. When natural vents clog with mineral buildup, they race against time—injecting cool water to revive the springs. By building a prototype greenhouse fed by warm aquifer flow, they empower local farmers to grow desert vegetables year-round. With laughter, mishaps, and discovery, “Champions of Solar Springs” reveals how science and community spirit can harness the planet’s fiery core to nurture life.

Wingless

Catherine Witzaney

In a world of flight, he was born wingless. But that’s the least of his problems. 
Since being orphaned at a young age, wingless sprite Asher Songfeather has been sure of one thing: Bat sprites aren’t to be trusted. The fact that his own mother was one is something Asher does his best to forget. 
But when his adoptive sister Carinen falls deathly ill, he’ll risk anything to save her—even if it means striking a bargain with a mysterious Bat sprite newcomer. The deal sends Asher on a perilous quest into the heart of the Bat Colony itself, where nothing is as it first appears. Saving his sister will require more than just courage and wits. It will take trust, too. 
And Asher will have to rethink everything he knows about Bat sprites—including himself.
