Book Description
It has been three years since the events prophesied about the Gate of Fire came to fruition. King Malick’s work of bringing together the newly-named Kingdom of Calridian is never-ending. A new castle is being constructed, journeys are undertaken to unexplored lands, and a Council of Peace is being formed. Every corner of the Kingdom plays a role in these efforts, led by the King. Amidst this flurry of activity, Jyres and Lalatco carry out their duties as Keepers of the Key. The protection of the key that unlocks the Gate of Fire remains Jyres’ number one priority, though the creature that escaped from the Gate of Fire remains a mystery and has not been seen in two years. The more time that goes by without appearances from the creature, the more others seem to forget about the key’s importance. Lalatco and Leah live in married bliss and the King’s focus remains elsewhere. Meanwhile, Elonda’s adventures take her far away from Jyres. This leaves Jyres feeling more alone and lost than ever before. As Jyres loses confidence in his friends, the enemies of the Kingdom of Calridian stir, waiting for their opportunity. Thinking he needs to be the lone hero, Jyres tries to embrace the role as these enemies emerge to oppose the Kingdom and try to take the key. Will Jyres’ decision prove costly? The fate of the key–and of all the Kingdom–hangs in the balance as conflict ensues. The Kingdom of Calridian finds help in unexpected places but will it be enough? And when the dust settles, who will be in possession of the key to the Gate of Fire?

Book Description
One of the most enduring and influential of all human institutions, the papacy has also been amongst the most controversial. No one who seeks to make sense of modern issues within Christendom -- or, indeed, world history -- can neglect the vital shaping role of the popes. In Keepers of the Keys of Heaven, eminent religion scholar Roger Collins offers a masterful account of the entire arc of papal history -- from the separation of the Greek and Latin churches to the contemporary controversies that threaten the unity of the one billion-strong worldwide Catholic community. A definitive and accessible guide to what is arguably the world's most vaunted office, Keepers of the Keys of Heaven is essential reading for anyone interested in the role of faith in the shaping of our world.

Book Description
A New York Times bestselling series A USA TODAY bestselling series A California Young Reader Medal–winning series In this riveting series opener, a telepathic girl must figure out why she is the key to her brand-new world before the wrong person finds the answer first. Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. The reason? Sophie’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. No one knows her secret—at least, that’s what she thinks… But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well…she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth, and she is forced to leave behind her family for a new life in a place that is vastly different from what she has ever known. But Sophie still has secrets, and they’re buried deep in her memory for good reason: The answers are dangerous and in high-demand. What is her true identity, and why was she hidden among humans? The truth could mean life or death—and time is running out.

Experience the fantastic adventure filled with magical objects, secret sects, and life as we know it on the line! Mixing magic and physics, Ted Sanders has created an epic story that has the feel of classic fantasy but twists it into something new and innovative. From the moment Horace F. Andrews sees the sign from the bus—a sign with his own name on it—everything changes. The sighting leads him underground, to the House of Answers, a hidden warehouse full of mysterious objects. But there, he finds only questions. What is this curious place? Who are the strange, secretive people who entrust him with a rare and immensely powerful gift? And what is he to do with it? When Horace finds the Box of Promises in the curio shop, he quickly discovers that ordinary-looking objects can hold extraordinary power. From the enormous, sinister man shadowing him to the gradual mastery of his newfound abilities to his encounters with Chloe—a girl who has an astonishing talent of her own—Horace follows a path that puts the pair in the middle of a centuries-old conflict between two warring factions in which every decision they make could have disastrous consequences.
