  The Hot Steppers Volume II follows a youth soccer team facing both tough competition and personal struggles. As they begin a new season, the team deals with the pressure of playing at an elite level, the possibility of a newcomer, Alina, joining, and the growing tension between staying loyal to their roots or pursuing corporate-sponsored opportunities like Elite Academies. A central conflict arises as the team fights to protect their practice space, The Lot, which is at risk of being demolished or taken over, threatening their community and identity. Simmie, the captain, struggles with perfectionism and leadership, challenging her ability to keep the team united. As tensions rise, the team's unity is tested, and they must learn to rely on each other to succeed. The volume explores themes of teamwork, identity, and the pressure of expectations, blending emotional highs and lows.

  The Seventymile Kid tells the remarkable account of Harry Karstens, who was the actual—if unheralded—leader of the Hudson Stuck Expedition that was the first to summit Mount McKinley in Alaska. All but forgotten by history, a young Karstens arrived in the Yukon during the 1897 Gold Rush, gained fame as a dog musher hauling U.S. Mail in Alaska, and eventually became the first superintendent of Mount McKinley National Park (now known as Denali National Park and Preserve). Aided by Karstens's own journals, longtime Denali writer and photographer Tom Walker uncovered archival information about the Stuck climb, and reveals that the Stuck "triumph" was an expedition marred by significant conflict. Without Karstens's wilderness skills and Alaska-honed tenacity, it is quite possible Hudson Stuck would never have climbed anywhere near the summit of McKinley. Yet the two men had a falling out shortly after the climb and never spoke again. In this book, Walker attempts to set the record straight about the historic first ascent itself, as well as other pioneer attempts by Frederick Cook and Judge Wickersham. 
   
   
   
  Fans of Alaska literature, American history, and mountaineering lore will love this adventurous biography of the largerthan-life "sourdough" Karstens, in which Alaska—its wilderness, its iconic mountain, and its pioneer spirit—looms large.
