Beschreibung

The first of a unique trilogy, Rise of the Last Pendragon ensnares readers aged twelve to late adulthood. It follows a fascinating twelve-year-old girl from Liverpool, developing to her mid-teens, discovering supernatural powers for the wars to come. Real life meets fantasy, as a horrific outcome looms amidst plots delivering mythical creatures of every sort, twists, mystery, and an enthralling, heart-warming performance from Matilda.	In 2021, Matilda meets a Dragon in the Dark Forest, bound to her by an ancient prophecy, telling of her destiny to be the Lioness, rightful Queen of Camelot. Catapulted into a world of hidden realms, Matilda embarks on a thrilling voyage of discovery, spiralling through a web of death, crime, violence, and gut-wrenching emotion. Empowering, heroic, relentless, Matilda’s magnetic, impetuous character bodes well for adventure. If anyone, who does she trust? A tear-jerking finish leaves more questions than answers, but all will be revealed in the next instalment.

    Hailey Dean is in trouble again—and this time it could be deadly. 
    Hailey Dean, the prosecutor who never lost a case, heads to Savannah as an expert witness on the sensational Julie Love Adams murder trial, but she soon finds herself embroiled in a mystery and an unexpected love affair. 
    At the baggage claim, Hailey is greeted by the handsome Lieutenant Chase Billings. On their way to her hotel, they hear an all-points bulletin for a murder that has just been committed. When they race to the scene, they find Alton Turner, a courthouse sheriff known for being as neat as a pin. Only he’s a hot mess now, lying sprawled in a pool of blood, severed in half by a garage door. 
    Never one to mind her own business, Hailey jump-starts Turner’s murder investigation while juggling the Julie Love trial. The timing of the trial and murder could be a coincidence, but everyone knows there is no such thing in criminal law. 
    Next, Elle Odom, a gorgeous clerk, is poisoned at the courthouse cafeteria coffee bar. Then the police technician who helped find the missing handbag that contained Elle’s life-saving epinephrine autoinjector turns into alligator bait at an amusement park. And that’s just the beginning. 
    With Lieutenant Billings falling hard for Hailey, she must dig deeper to find a killer with a very mysterious agenda—knowing full well that the next murder victim may very well be herself.

    In an Age of Fear ...When Berserkers Haunt the Forests of Scandinavia ...A New Terror Rises in the North ... 
    I'm sixteen this year, and my mother says I should marry soon.  
    Loki.  
    I'd already be married if any cheiftains' sons were man enough to have me. 
    When I do find a husband though, I'll inherit the village of Borg, which as the Princess of Lofoten is my birthright.  
    We'll have several farms and command a fleet of viking ships. I'll give birth to mighty warrior sons or a fierce shieldmaiden like myself. And perhaps one day, if it pleases the gods, I'll take my grandfather's place as the Jarl of Hålogaland. 
    That's how things might have been - if my entire life hadn't been a lie. 
    But now the secret's out. Even if I am the last to know. 
    And the truth has awakened something ... something frightening within me. 
    I've always had a temper. There's enough young men with missing teeth who can attest to that. 
    But this? This is different. 
    This rage. This hunger. This intense thirst for blood. 
    It's more than I can control. 
    The worst part?  
    It all makes sense when I learn who my father really is.

    When Candide is cast out of his sheltered life, he embarks on a journey filled with war, natural disasters, betrayal, and heartbreak—all while clinging to the optimistic philosophy of his mentor, Pangloss. As he travels across Europe and the Americas, encountering a bizarre array of characters and suffering the harsh realities of life, Candide's faith in idealism is repeatedly tested.
    
    In this classic satire, Voltaire skewers the pretensions of philosophy, religion, and social systems, offering a compelling critique of human nature. A timeless classic, Candide is a powerful exploration of optimism, human folly, and the search for meaning in a chaotic world.
