    Book two in this fast-paced and exciting series for middle grade fantasy, mystery, and animal buffs. 
    Noah and his friends thought they had seen it all during their first journey into the Secret Zoo—but it was only the beginning. Now they must train to become Crossers, members of a secret society who freely travel to the Secret Zoo and back, helping to defend its borders. But now that the monstrous sasquatches are on the loose and the evil Shadowist is plotting destruction, will Noah, Megan, Ella, and Richie have what it takes to survive? 
    The author originally had the idea for The Secret Zoo when he was nine and wondered what would happen if zoo exhibits had secret doors that allowed kids to go inside—and the animals to come outside. He brings that sense of adventure and excitement to this story, making it a favorite for home and classroom reading along with such middle grade fantasy favorites as The One and Only Ivan.

    Can three unlikely companions, each hiding a secret, survive one deadly quest? 
    When Tessa Skye’s father is killed by order of a powerful conjurer, her world is turned upside down. As a locksmith’s apprentice with a magical amulet that lets her transform into a sparrow, Tessa is determined to do the impossible, bring him back. 
    Her only hope lies in stealing the Dreadmarrow, the conjurer’s most prized artifact, said to hold power over life and death. 
    But she won’t make the journey alone. Ash, a quiet boy with unmatched skill in swordplay, is desperate to avenge his twin brother’s mysterious death. Calder, a wandering fortuneteller with a bag full of clever tricks, is searching for the girl he once loved, now vanished into the conjurer’s shadowy world. 
    Together, the three must cross the dangerous Cursed Wood, survive attacks by monstrous boarmen and wraiths, and outwit the deadly forces that guard the conjurer’s fortress. Each of them has something to hide. Each of them has something to lose. And if they fail, more than one life may be lost forever. 
    Full of danger, heart, and magic, Dreadmarrow is a tale of unlikely friendships, unbreakable courage, and the powerful choices that shape who we become, even when all hope seems lost. 
    Some doors were never meant to be unlocked.

    Boarding Party by Robert F. Young - The fey Mr. Young continues his scholarly researches in the scientific origins of our myth and legend with this tale of an agile—and avaricious—one-man boarding party. 
    (Translator's note: The original of the following report was recently acquired by the Terran Industrial Library through the Interstellar Historical Exchange Society, into whose illustrious fold the member nations of the Terran Economic Bloc have at last been admitted. The narrative is of primary interest to the library officials because it provides unequivocable proof that, long before the Interstellar Economic Community took official cognizance of our existence, several articles of Community Commerce found their way into our culture. To the layman, however, the narrative is of primary interest because it provides an intriguing parallel to a narrative of an altogether different nature.) 
    TO: Interstellar Nurseries, Frimm 4 
    FROM: Captain of the Greenship Uxurient, Urtz 2 
    SUBJECT(S): (1) Why the Uxurient put in to an out-of-bounds system during the Frimm 4-Urtz 2 run; (2) how a boarding party of one gained the greendeck and made off with a Uterium 5 snirk bird, a toy friddlefork, and two containers of yellow trading disks; (3) why the Uxurient's flexible ship-to-ground capillary tube is ten exids shorter than it used to be.
