DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn a contemporary town in the American midwest where he has no connections, Bax, an educated man recently released from prison, is staying in a motel. He writes letters to his brother and to others, including a friend still in jail, to whom he progressively reveals the intriguing pieces of a strange and fantastic narrative. When he meets a real estate agent who tells him he is, to his utter surprise, the heir to a huge old house in town, long empty, he moves in. He is immediately confronted by an array of supernatural creatures and events, by love and danger. His life is utterly transformed and we read on, because we must know more. We revise our opinions of him, and of others, with each letter, piecing together more of the story as we go. We learn things about magic, and another world, and about the sorcerer Mr. Black, who originally inhabited the house. And then knowing what we now know only in the end, perhaps we read it again.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom a New York Times–bestselling author, an adventure featuring the ancestor of Charlie Bone, a prince with magical powers, on a quest to find a new home. Timoken is a prince born in a secret kingdom. At his birth, a forest jinni bestows magical gifts upon him: a cloak made by the last moon spider and a youth potion called Alixir. When the peaceful land is attacked, Timoken and his sister, Zobayda, must find a new kingdom to call home. Together, with only the magical gifts and a talking camel, the siblings set off. In this brand-new series, New York Times and USA Today–bestselling author Jenny Nimmo takes readers on an extraordinary quest with one of her most powerful and mysterious characters, the one who started it all for Charlie Bone and the children of the Red King. “Timoken is a highly appealing young hero.” —Publishers Weekly “Jenny Nimmo has created an original and compelling novel with fascinating details, unique mythology, and an exciting continent-spanning journey. Fans of the popular Children of the Red King series . . . will delight in these new adventures; however, this prequel series stands on its own.” —School Library Journal
