Book excerpt: Here is a fantasy novel for children and for the child at heart, for anyone who has ever felt the pangs of wanderlust, who has ever heard the far-off call of the horizon, and who longs to answer it. On a chill night when the pale beams of the harvest moon keep him awake, a boy named Fritz sneaks away from his parents' home and passes over the horizon. A restless longing without object urges him on, through the wild wood, over mountains, under ground, beyond the moon itself to lands like no other. Beautiful maidens, fierce queens, horrifying monsters, and an ancient evil await him on his journey. But he must face them all to save the Lands Beyond the Moon, and his very soul! In the tradition of George MacDonald and C.S. Lewis, embark on a spiritual journey and experience all the wonder of another world!

Book excerpt: Finally, someone has written a comprehensive, easily readable explanation of the tides on earth that is both simple enough for students and solid enough for their professors. Step by step, by analogy and illustration, Beyond the Moon describes how the cyclical motion of the near solar system is impressed upon the earth's oceans, and how the hydraulics over the continental shelf and the geography of the coastline orchestrate this rhythm into the bewildering variety of tide patterns seen around the globe. This volume demystifies the complexity of the tides by systematically examining its many constituents and demonstrates that: "Nature is, at once, awesome in complexity and beautiful in simplicity."

Book excerpt: A rogue scholar defies his destiny and ventures into a forbidden, mythical land, on a perilous quest to unlock the ancient secrets of a lost empire's magic. Known for immersing himself deeply within the cultures he studies, Kores, an infamous explorer, now finds himself outliving his welcome at his beloved school. He has become an enigma to his superiors who urge him to conform and retire to a comfortable life, marrying into nobility. But a stirring within his blood—an agelessness he attributes to a connection with the lost Alcar Empire—fuels his desire to understand the nature of magic, a knowledge decimated when the Alcar's homeland, Saylassa, turned to ruin. This relentless yearning drives him to a daring act during a tribal ritual. He drinks from a blood-filled cauldron mixed with the sacred dust of Saylassa, openly defying the tenets of his school. This choice sets him on a course he can't reverse and pushes him further from the future his superiors planned for him. Upon his return, a stack of letters awaits him, most bearing the stern words of the headmaster. But amongst these, a golden sigil catches his eye, an invitation from a mysterious lord whose residence lies a week's journey away. This invitation, along with an enchanted map bearing secret writing, pulls him towards a land of dark power and mythical beings—a forbidden continent he had dreamt of since his youth. It's a dangerous path, but one that promises answers to the mysteries he's been chasing. Choosing a road less traveled, the scholar sets off on a perilous quest to the enigmatic continent of Vailassa, seeking an ancient Alcar portal that could unlock the secrets of a bygone era, forever altering the fabric of their world. The Practice of Power books can be read as standalones but also a series of interwoven stories.

Book excerpt: From the critically acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Sharon Kay Penman comes the story of the reign of King Baldwin IV and the Kingdom of Jerusalem's defense against Saladin's famous army. The Kingdom of Jerusalem, also known as Outremer, is the land far beyond the sea. Baptized in blood when the men of the First Crusade captured Jerusalem from the Saracens in the early twelfth century, the kingdom defined an utterly new world, a land of blazing heat and a medley of cultures, a place where enemies were neighbors and neighbors became enemies. At the helm of this growing kingdom sits young Baldwin IV, an intelligent and courageous boy committed to the welfare and protection of his people. But despite Baldwin's dedication to his land, he is afflicted with leprosy at an early age and the threats against his power and his health nearly outweigh the risk of battle. As political deception scours the halls of the royal court, the Muslim army--led by the first sultan of Egypt and Syria, Saladin--is never far from the kingdom's doorstep, and there are only a handful Baldwin can trust, including the archbishop William of Tyre and Lord Balian d'Ibelin, a charismatic leader who has been one of the few able to maintain the peace. Filled with drama and battle, tragedy and romance, Sharon Kay Penman's latest novel brings a definitive period of history vividly alive with a tale of power and glory that will resonate with readers today.
