When Dev gives birth to a baby boy who caused the floor to rumble, the walls to shake and the lights to flicker during delivery, she knows she is raising a witch. Oak was raised in a family coven, but witches don't need magic the way they did in the past. In order to suppress his powers from bursting at the seams, they find that raw garlic keeps his powers in check. Unfortunately, the consequences of smelling like garlic in high school takes a toll on your social life. While creating a magical pin that will replace the need to eat raw garlic, Oak stumbles upon a problem that needs to be solved. He is having visions of a false reality and it's getting him into trouble. With the help of his family and coven, they set off on a journey to discover why he is having these visions and find out what they need to do to stop them. The journey is long and hard, but they discover a secret about him and their families lineage that has been covered up for centuries. Join Oak on his adventure as he explores the ancient world of witchcraft, searching for answers while struggling to maintain a normal friendship with his best friend Kyle-Ray. If you love stories about magic, witchcraft, fantasy creatures and locations, or self discovery, you will love this book!
The legend of the Singing River has evolved into a world where the folds of time touch to transport Lauren Rayburn, a pursued mother, back to the 17th century. Here she finds a Native American tribe untouched by the encroaching Europeans. Her presence sparks an age old war that had almost extinguished the peaceful tribe many years before.
Tim O’Connor is paid to be violent. He plays for the El Paso Storm in the West Texas Hockey League. People call him Oak. He’s been an enforcer for longer than his hip or shoulder or back have been able to hold together. He is a broken machine of gristle and rage. And he has been away from home for too long. He’s called back to Boston by his mother’s death. There he confronts a life he failed to live, a daughter he doesn’t know, and a body that is quickly breaking down. Still, he can’t conceive of a future without hockey, even as he chews oxycodone and Adderall to numb his injuries and steady his brain. When a brutal encounter with the police places him in the path of Joan Linney, a haunted public defender, and Kip, a boy with a brave face, Oak and his chance companions roam cold streets from Castle Island to Quincy Point, struggling to believe in a different future. In spare, potent language, Jeff W. Bens builds a remarkable character from the skates up. The Mighty Oak is a visceral and emotional experience. The fact of Oak’s physical existence is powerfully rendered, and the bone-deep transformation of his character is one you will not soon forget.
