Book Description
The Quests continue... Claire Jones has lived a difficult, albeit short, life. Orphaned, abandoned, left to drift through the foster care system, she has developed a hard outer shell designed to keep the world at bay. Yet this strength and resilience is just what the Land needs as it faces a series of devastating storms that cripple a Region and threaten the stability of the entire ecosystem. Naturally skeptical, instinctively distrustful, Claire is far too young and far too unpredictable for the Protector's of the Land. Yet her ties to their group, and to the mystical dimension they are sworn to protect, is undeniable. With reluctance Claire is sent to the Land, where she must find a level of inner strength that belies age, defies her past, and embraces the possibilities. Finding friends and a sense of family along the way, Claire is faced with the most difficult decisions in her young life. The outcome will affect the fate of Claire, the Land, and even the World.

Book Description
With 16 pages of black-and-white illustrations In Storm Kings, Lee Sandlin retraces America's fascination and unique relationship to tornadoes and the weather. From Ben Franklin's early experiments, to "the great storm debates" of the nineteenth century, to heartland life in the early twentieth century, Sandlin shows how tornado chasing helped foster the birth of meteorology, recreating with vivid descriptions some of the most devastating storms in America's history. Drawing on memoirs, letters, eyewitness testimonies, and numerous archives, Sandlin brings to life the forgotten characters and scientists that changed a nation and how successive generations came to understand and finally coexist with the spiraling menace that could erase lives and whole towns in an instant.

Book Description
AWARD WINNER! Book of the Year Awards 2003 BRONZE MEDAL IN THE FANTASY/SCI-FI CATEGORY Of another time and place, WILLSTORM-Quest for Union chronicles the lives of the thousands of worshippers aboard the wandering temple dome, the Carnate of Mygda. Ruled by a council of 12 prelates, the mobile temple dome rumbles like a massive tank across the countryside in its age-old search for Union, a final, undefined, mystical merging with the godhead known only as Mygda. Bral, the acolyte of Yano, Primate of the Wardens of Disaster, has known the temple since the earliest days of his youth when the temple was temporarily landlocked in a narrow gorge at the edge of his village. Now at young manhood, Bral strives to quiet the religious doubts which rage within him as he also struggles first to save a young woman being offered as sacrifice to the godhead, Mygda, and eventually to defend himself against charges of blasphemy and sacrilege. Found guilty, he is sentenced to a deathwalk, leading the temple across the arid plains until he falls beneath its tractor drives. Strange powers in the Orb of Union, the glowing artifact which dates from the earliest history of Mygda, endows Ikol, an itinerant huckster and thief, with the divine power of Mygda. Ikol becomes an anointed one and assumes control of the ruling council as the 13th Primate, the Warden of Willstorm. He will unleash the Great Calamity which is foretold as the preface to the event of Final Union. Amid the violence and religious fanaticism, the love between Bral and Pylar struggles to express itself. Religious faith must be renewed or abandoned, and either course tested in battle. Both a prequel and a sequel to WILLSTORM are in work.
