  “Owen turned around slowly. Crouched between the junipers, its deep gloss-green scales glinting, its golden eyes fixed on his blue ones, was the dragon that Jake had made for his Medieval Day diorama last spring. He tried to scream…” 
  Owen has heard Jake’s wild tales about Drakenaarde, but deep down he didn’t believe in other worlds. Even after meeting a dragon and a wizard, he still doesn’t. People have lucid dreams all the time; that’s a scientific fact. 
  Emelina’s life is upside down; she doesn’t fit in anywhere anymore. She’s ready to leave her old life behind and plunge into romantic adventure. At least, she thinks she is. 
  Owen and Emelina are quickly pulled far beyond their depth. They prepare to abandon ship. But their friends need them; there’s no room for retreat. They must reform their beliefs and trust in each other to save Jake’s parents and set things right – in a trio of worlds.

  Man of Distinction - One Man...

  Man of Distinction by Michael Shaara - Being unique is a matter of pride—but being a complete mathematical impossibility? 
  The remarkable distinction of Thatcher Blitt did not come to the attention of a bemused world until late in the year 2180. Although Thatcher Blitt was, by the standards of his time, an extremely successful man financially, this was not considered real distinction. Unfortunately for Blitt, it never has been. 
  The history books do not record the names of the most successful merchants of the past unless they happened by chance to have been connected with famous men of the time. Thus Croesus is remembered largely for his contributions to famous Romans and successful armies. And Haym Solomon, a similarly wealthy man, would have been long forgotten had he not also been a financial mainstay of the American Revolution and consorted with famous, if impoverished, statesmen. 
  So if Thatcher Blitt was distinct among men, the distinction was not immediately apparent. He was a small, gaunt, fragile man who had the kind of face and bearing that are perfect for movie crowd scenes. Absolutely forgettable. Yet Thatcher Blitt was one of the foremost businessmen of his time. For he was president and founder of that noble institution, Genealogy, Inc. 
  Thatcher Blitt was not yet 25 when he made the discovery which was to make him among the richest men of his time. His discovery was, like all great ones, obvious yet profound. He observed that every person had a father.
