Choose Your Own Adventure XXVII. You and your friends are holidaying in your great-uncle's cabin in the mountain town of High Ridge where legend says murderous ghosts lurk everywhere. You don't believe it - until an arrow bursts through the window, whizzes past your head, thuds into the all - and vanishes. If you decide it's safer to stay in the cabin, turn to page 12. If you choose to run for your jeep and get out of town, turn to page 8. High Ridge is full of danger - you may end up trapped in a burning building or hurtling off a cliff - or you may become the hero. So what will happen next? It's up to you - and there's 27 possible endings. -
Book I of The Dreamers. They look like sleeping children. They are, in fact, Gods. There are eight Elder Gods - four awake, four asleep, by turns. When they sleep, they sleep for eons. The only time the Gods are vulnerable are when the sleepers awake. The Ruler of the Wasteland knows that - and ambitious to become a God by destroying Gods, watches and waits, marshalling troops for war. So it is that the coming of the Dreamers goes unnoticed in the Wasteland. But the World is soon out of kilter; it is being dreamed and the awakening of Gods is no simple transition. The Sleeping Gods are stirring. When the wake, the Battle will begin...there will be trickery and deception. Tribes of humans, creatures of the deep, the sea and the earth, the weather and the Divinities will all play their part in the epic struggle against the Ruler of the Wasteland.

Goddess: Fiona McIntosh
$7.00Book III of Percheron. The city-state of Percheron is in crisis. Zaradine Ana has been captured by the mysterious Arafanz and his desert warriors and is being held in their isolated fort. It is also suspected that she is pregnant with Zar Boaz's son, the heir to the throne...Though Lazar has made it out of the desert, his heroics in bringing the Valide and Grand Vizier to safety have cost him. Afflicted with the drezden illness that befalls him when he is weak, he is too sick to move from his bed, when help comes from an unexpected source. Zar Boaz finds himself trapped by both his heart and his head. Though he can think of nothing but Ana, imprisoned in the desert, his country is on the brink of war and his Spur is helpless. Hatching a daring plan, he calls for Percheron's strongest to make one more pilgrimage into the desert, even as warships threaten Percheron's harbor, and the Goddess reaches the crest of her ascent, throwing all parties—mortal and divine—into a perilous battle for their hearts, their lives, and their souls.

But Ben's idyll was not to last. The dark and pitiless Rydall, king of lands beyond the fairy mists, was at the gates of Sterling Silver. His armies ready to invade if Ben would not accept his challenge: to face and defeat seven different champions of Rydall's choice. And accept he must, for Mistaya had been snatched from her guardians by foul magic and only Rydall had the key to her fate ...Cover art by Steve Stone.
