    From the iconic science fiction author of Fahrenheit 451, a chilling dystopian short story that became a classic episode of TV’s Ray Bradbury Theater.  The Playground, first published in the hardcover edition of Bradbury’s legendary work Fahrenheit 451, tells the story of Charles Underhill, a widower who must protect his young son, Jim, from the horrors of the playground. Passing the playground on their daily walk brings Charles back the anguish of his own childhood—a nightmare of vulnerability and suffering. He will do anything to spare his sensitive son from the same torment.   Charles’s sister, Carol, who has moved in to help raise the young boy, feels differently. The playground, she believes, is preparation for life, and Jim will be more equipped to deal with the rigor and obligation of adult existence by facing it.   Paralyzed by his own fear and his sister’s invocation of reason, Charles learns of a way that Jim can be spared the playground. But it will come at a great cost . . . perhaps more than he can pay.

If I want to overthrow her and reclaim my pack, I’m going to need some help. Keeran and I put Queen Thea on her throne, but I’m unsure if the lonely warlock is still alive… or if he’s still has feelings for me. I want to search for Keeran, but my wolves come first, and I might be forced to make a choice between them. 
    Keeran

If Luana wants me to aide her in bringing down Isalia, she’ll have to help me achieve an impossible task: finding the warlock coven, and becoming a legendary Warlock Lord. But things are complicated. I have a tainted past that still gives me nightmares. Yes, I want Luana. But the closer she gets to me, the more danger she’s in…
