Sinopse

Book written by 12-year-old Vincenzo Pignetti from Italy: Where can they bring the depths of their mind? What happens when a strange curse strikes a normal 12-year-old boy? What of what we perceive is "true" and what is not is it just a nightmare or is it reality? What if things are so expensive and not so different? If in the end one finds nothing but the same, frightening, what? If reality is a nightmare and reality is a nightmare? The author in this journey poses and asks us all the questions, desperately looking for the answer. That story of a normal boy, told by himself in the first person, turns into an agonizing and tormented journey that transports him to a dark and fantastic world populated by the strangest creatures. The protagonist will face trials, pilgrimages, difficulties, research, friends and in an undefined metaphysical grand piano. His will also be an introspective journey in search of his own identity, his uniqueness, his place in the universe. He will fight against the most varied spells and the strangest dark sorceries in a lively direct journey into his emotions and his reactions to the impossible and the unknown. Fantasy can fly in this monstrous world where the reader will then have to draw . Is it the second life that will prevail or will my "normal" life have the upper hand? They will fight each other, they will quiver, they will cry to be released in a continuous coming and going between dream and reality. But where one ends and the other begins, we will not know for sure. Instagram: @vincenzopignetti_real

Breaking and Entering 101

Honor Raconteur

Since Jamie and Henri agreed to be Kingsmen consultants, they’d not had much call to actually consult. Which is a fortuitous thing, as Henri is up to his neck in labwork and interviews for a new Magical Examiner due to Sanderson’s departing. He is hardly in any position to add more tasks onto his shoulders. 
Which, naturally, means two disasters strike at once. 
In a brilliant coup, a group of thieves have struck the railroad and stolen a breathtaking three hundred thousand pounds in gold. No one has any idea how, who, or where the ingots have gotten to. The Kingsmen on the case are baffled, as this is hardly their normal purview. They naturally reach out to their Kingsmen consultants, which mean Jamie and Henri are now on the week-old case. 
To spice things up further, someone is routinely sneaking through the palace wards and lurking about the grounds, and no one has any idea how the breach is occurring. Seaton’s beside himself trying to figure it out and Henri has been drawn in to assist him. 
As Jamie would say: When it rains, it pours.
