  Beware the shadows, because not everything hiding in them is harmless . . . 
   
   
   
  The Shadow Council have found new allies: shadowy creatures called wraiths. Summoned from another dimension, the wraiths are immune to most forms of attack—and they eat life force. A deadly threat to everyone in Kortall, the wraiths change the balance of power completely. 
   
   
   
  The Council is on the march again. If Smith and his allies cannot find a way to defeat the wraiths, everything will be lost! 
   
   
   
  There's one chance. Legend says there was a Sword of Light carried by a hero centuries ago. If it's real, the sword would be a deadly weapon against the wraiths, but nobody has seen it in hundreds of years. 
   
   
   
  The quest to find the sword will demand everything from the seekers. 
   
   
   
  But if they fail, everything in their world will fall to shadow!

  Some Rambling Notes of an Idle...

  Some Rambling Notes of an Idle Excursion is a humorous travelogue chronicling a trip to Bermuda with friends that captures the essence of Twain's observational style, and showcases his talent for turning everyday experiences into comedic masterpieces. Blending humour, satire, and insightful commentary on people and places, this is a delightful blend of travel writing and humorous fiction.
  Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain (1835–1910), grew up along the banks of the Mississippi River, and his early experiences inspired many of his most famous works, including The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Widely celebrated as America's greatest humorist, Twain captured the spirit of a rapidly changing nation, and his sharp wit, keen eye for human nature, and gift for storytelling made him not only a beloved novelist but also a popular lecturer and essayist.
  
  Twain's innovative style, character-driven storytelling and ability to interweave humour with profound social critique laid the groundwork for modern American literature and has inspired countless authors, including Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Indeed, Hemingway famously declared that "all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn."

  Every family has its secrets. Josephina “Joey” Harris wouldn’t mind if her family still had a few of their own after a lawsuit tarnishes their name. When an opportunity opens to become a temporary keeper of a decommissioned lighthouse on a North Carolina island, she takes the opportunity to escape the scrutiny of her small town to oversee its restoration.  
   
  Soon Joey discovers strange notes tucked deep in the crevices of the lighthouse’s old stone walls—pages torn from a keeper’s log recounting harrowing rescues at sea. When things start to go amiss on the island, locals are convinced that it is the ghost of the lighthouse keeper and his daughter who were lost at sea during World War II.  
   
  As Joey sifts through decades of rumors and legends and puts together the pieces of the past, a love story emerges—one that’s clearly not over yet. 
   
  “An emotionally gripping must-read [that] reminds us that life is a beautiful gift and love overcomes all.”—Julie Cantrell, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Perennials

  “Each book in the O’Connell Family series makes me fall more in love with this family.” Rebmay 
  Owen O’Connell wants only one thing: to put a ring on the finger of his long-time girlfriend, Tessa Brooks. But when her past fears become an obstacle between them, Owen may not get the new beginning and the happily ever after he truly wants.

  As the O’Connells work together to keep their sister out of jail, can big brother Owen, who has been a father figure to all his siblings, achieve the future he dreams of with the only woman he’s ever truly loved?
