Sinossi

In "The Boy Scouts on a Submarine," John Blaine masterfully intertwines adventure and camaraderie, taking readers on a thrilling journey that extends beyond the typical boundaries of a young adult novel. Set against the backdrop of a daring underwater expedition, this work captures the quintessential spirit of the Boy Scout ethos'Äîbravery, resourcefulness, and loyalty. Blaine's vivid descriptions and engaging dialogue propel the narrative, immersing readers in a pulsating undersea world, while his ability to blend educational elements with entertainment serves to enhance the literary experience, situating the book within the broader tradition of adventure narratives popular in the early 20th century. John Blaine, a pen name for the prolific author and editor John Olmsted, was deeply influenced by his own experiences as a scout and his passion for adventure. His extensive contributions to juvenile literature'Äîincluding the notable "The Boy Scouts" series'Äîillustrate both a commitment to youth-oriented themes and a rich understanding of the challenges faced by young readers in their path toward maturity. This background undoubtedly informed his thoughtful portrayal of young protagonists overcoming obstacles, making the narrative not just an escapade but also a coming-of-age journey. This captivating tale is a must-read for both young adventurers and adult enthusiasts of classic literature. Blaine's ability to weave suspense and moral lessons offers insight into the spirit of discovery during a formative era for youth literature. Readers will find themselves eagerly turning pages, experiencing the exhilarating world beneath the waves alongside the Boy Scouts. Join the journey and discover the depths of bravery and friendship.

    Deep in the crystal spires of Subterra, where gem miners unearth facets that pierce veils of illusion and spire hearts pulse with subterranean magic, miner Thorne unearths a love as radiant as the crystals he seeks— in the form of Lira, a veiled spirit bound to the depths' luminous core. Their discovery, glowing in faceted light, shatters the veil—or awakens guardian golems of stone wrath. As they descend echo chambers and vein-riddled chasms, pursued by claim-jumping rivals and crystal curses, Thorne's miner's grit fuses with Lira's ethereal glow, revealing a spire prophecy of unveiled hearts. When a collapsing shaft unleashes shard storms, they must pierce the core to stabilize their bond. In the depths of crystal veils, where every facet reflects desire and every spire guards a secret, their love becomes the gem that illuminates the buried world.

    Lauren has a secret. Colby has a problem. But when they find each other, everything falls into place. From the author of the Charmed Life series. 
     
    In alternating chapters of verse and prose, new girl Lauren and football hero Colby come together, fall apart, and build something stronger than either of them thought possible—something to truly believe in. 
     
    “Writing in alternating viewpoints, with Lauren’s chapters unfolding in free verse and Colby’s in prose, Schroeder (Falling for You) offers a thoughtful, straightforward, and fairly chaste romance between two kind, generous teens—one burdened by her past, one burdened by his future.” —Publishers Weekly 
     
    “The alternating chapters of Lauren’s poetry and Colby’s conversational prose are well written and help reveal the characters refreshingly unique perspectives, as well as their growth in positive ways . . . This light, fast-paced story will delight romance fans looking for a fun, hopeful read.” —School Library Journal 
     
    “Familiar characters and a quiet plot are elevated by poetry that is as beautiful as it is varied. Lovely in its details.” —Kirkus Reviews

    Once upon a time and with surprising frequency, dragons kidnapped helpless princesses. As the ultimate romantic gesture, heroic princes fought the dragons and saved the damsels in distress. 
    At least, that's the story you've been led to believe. But here's a little secret: 
    Sometimes the dragon saved the princess from the princes… 
    In the kingdom of Marshwood, everybody lives happily ever after – orphans, stepmothers, everybody. King Wesick is wise and beloved. Queen Mattea is beautiful and kind. Prince Nolan is handsome and brave, and his sister Littagale is smart and talented. But when it comes time for Princess Littagale to marry, suddenly the dragon Tor flies down from Mount Shadow, kidnaps the princess, and flies her to his dark lair. 
    "Oh, no! The horror! Who will save her?" cry the townspeople. 
    With great fanfare and the cologne of testosterone, princes from near and far arrive in Marshwood and vow to rescue the princess – in exchange for the honor of becoming her husband and inheriting the kingdom. The townspeople rejoice, place bets, and everyone waits to see who will defeat Tor and save Princess Littagale. 
    But what secret is Queen Mattea hiding? And why does Tor have a spa in his lair?
