In a world in the clouds where only the rich own dragons, a poor boy named Remy finds a wild baby dragon--believed to be extinct--and becomes the focus of an evil pirate''s vengeance. REMY spends his days trying to survive the mean streets of Cutthroat Wedge--one of the many islands floating in the gravitational pull of the magical Maelstrom raging below. But his life changes forever when a violent storm brings a baby dragon to his doorstep, and he feels a bond he has never felt with anyone. Remy names the dragon Storm and vows to protect this new friend, no matter the cost. GEM longs for the day when she call herself a true mage. That is, if she can convince her teachers and peers that just because she''s a princess doesn''t mean she''s lazy and spoiled. But when Gem learns that the floating islands that make up her kingdom are rapidly sinking into the Maelstrom, she makes it her mission to save her world. Against the king''s wishes, she accesses forbidden research and discovers the secret to saving humanity may lie in a True Dragon--a dragon capable of intelligent thought and able to cast and use magic. But True Dragons are extinct . . . aren''t they? Remy''s and Gem''s lives will never be the same when their fates collide, thanks to Storm. With an evil pirate mage named Jhaeros determined to claim the rare dragon for himself, the two must learn to trust in each other as they team up with a shifty pirate captain and her crew, stand together against impossible odds, and embark on the adventure of a lifetime.

One of the most beloved stories from The Walt Disney Parks is now a romping middle grade adventure series! High-tech wizardry, old world legends and a little bit of Disney magic all shine through in Shinji Takahashi and the Mark of the Coatl, the first book in the Society of Explorers and Adventurers series from renowned best-selling author, Julie Kagawa. One cannot fight destiny, boy. Even if one did not ask for it. The idol calls for you, and you must answer its call... Shinji Takahashi is just an ordinary kid. An ordinary homeschooled smart-alecky kid being raised by his globe-trotting aunt Yui. But when a magical guardian decides to use him as a conduit to awaken its power, Shinji''s life takes a turn for the anything-but-ordinary. Captured by the menacing Hightower Corporation, which is bent on using the guardian''s magic for its own nefarious purposes, Shinji must team up with a brilliant young tech whiz named Lucy and her robot mouse, Tinker, in order to escape. Together the two turn to the venerable Society of Explorers and Adventurers and its ragtag cast of spelunkers, hackers, mapmakers, pilots, and mythology experts (among other things) to return the guardian to its rightful home and release Shinji from its magic--which seems to be draining his life force. Time is ticking, the Hightower Corporation is in hot pursuit, and success or failure might depend on one small thing--Shinji finally coming around to the belief that he is anything but ordinary. Based on the Society of Explorers and Adventurers lore that exist across the Walt Disney Parks, Shinji Takahashi and the Mark of the Coatl is the first book in an all-new action-adventure series that brings S.E.A. into the twenty-first century through a blend of science and magic, and a focus on two young characters on an epic journey.

One thousand years ago, a wish was made to the Harbinger of Change and a sword of rage and lightning was forged. Kamigoroshi. The Godslayer. It had one task: to seal away the powerful demon Hakaimono. Now he has broken free. Kitsune shapeshifter Yumeko has one task: to take her piece of the ancient and powerful scroll to the Steel Feather temple in order to prevent the summoning of the Harbinger of Change, the great Kami Dragon who will grant one wish to whoever holds the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers. But she has a new enemy now. The demon Hakaimono, who for centuries was trapped in a cursed sword, has escaped and possessed the boy she thought would protect her, Kage Tatsumi of the Shadow Clan. Hakaimono has done the unthinkable and joined forces with the Master of Demons in order to break the curse of the sword and set himself free. To overthrow the empire and cover the land in darkness, they need one thing: the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers. As the paths of Yumeko and the possessed Tatsumi cross once again, the entire empire will be thrown into chaos.

In this first book of her Japanese mythology-inspired Shadow of the Fox trilogy, bestselling author Julie Kagawa weaves a stunning, high-stakes tale of alliances and deceptions, characters who aren’t what they seem, and secrets that could change the fate of the world. Every millennium, whoever holds the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers has the power to call the great Kami Dragon from the sea and ask for one wish. The time is near...and the missing pieces of the scroll will be sought throughout the land of Iwagoto. When demons kill half-kitsune Yumeko’s adoptive family, she’s forced to flee her home with one part of the ancient scroll. Fate thrusts her into the path of mysterious samurai Kage Tatsumi, who is Yumeko’s best hope for survival. But he’s under orders to retrieve the scroll. An uneasy alliance forms, and Yumeko begins the deception of a lifetime, knowing her secrets are more than a matter of life or death—they’re the key to the fate of the world.

Talon-saaga (4) Julie Kagawan uutta luovassa saagassa ihmishahmoihin kätkeytyneet lohikäärmeet vaeltavat keskuudessamme... Lohikäärmetyttö Ember katsoi sylissään makaavaa nuorukaista, josta valuva veri värjäsi maata punaiseksi. Hän tuijotti rakastamiaan kasvoja kyyneltensä läpi ja arveli, ettei mikään voisi olla tätä pahempaa. Mutta hän oli väärässä. Talon, lohikäärmeiden katala järjestö, oli valmistautumassa viimeiseen kuolettavaan iskuun arkkivihollistaan, Pyhän Yrjänän Veljeskuntaa, vastaan. Sen lonkerot ulottuivat pidemmälle kuin kukaan oli uskonut, ja kun Emberille vihdoin selvisi, mitä Talon oli maailmanherruutensa eteen valmis tekemään, hän tiesi, että kaikki, mitä hän oli ikinä rakastanut tai mihin uskonut, oli vaarassa tuhoutua. Hän ei antaisi niin tapahtua. Ei niin kauaa, kun tuli hänessä paloi.

Om under fireogtyve timer fylder jeg sytten år. Jeg har opholdt mig for lang tid i Aldrigaldrig. Når man er i alfernes verden, ældes man ikke, eller man ældes så langsomt, at det ikke er nævneværdigt. Så, mens der er gået et år i den virkelige verden, er jeg nok kun nogle få dage ældre, end da jeg gik derind. I det virkelige liv har jeg ændret mig så meget, at jeg end ikke genkender mig selv. Jeg hedder Meghan Chase, og her er min fortælling. Jeg troede, at det var overstået. Jeg troede, at min tid med feyerne og de umulige valg, jeg blev nødt til at tage, det jeg havde opgivet for dem, jeg elskede, lå bag mig. Men en storm nærmede sig, en der ville sætte mine valg på prøve som aldrig før. Og denne gang ville der ikke være nogen vej tilbage. Jerndronningen er tredje bind i Iron Fey sagaen.

Bag mig hørtes lyden af grene, der knækkede, snerren gav genlyd, og den vrede lyd af goblinchefen, der bandede, blev højere og højere i mine ører. Jeg hev efter vejret og mine lunger brændte, men jeg tvang mine ben til at fortsætte, jeg vidste, at jeg ville dø, hvis jeg snublede eller faldt. Meghan Chase har en hemmelig skæbne; en skæbne som hun aldrig havde forestillet sig. Lige siden hendes far forsvandt for øjnene af hende for 10 år siden, har hun følt, at hun var lidt forkert. Hun har ikke rigtig passet ind, hverken i skolen eller derhjemme. Da en mørk fremmed begynder at holde øje med hende - og hendes bedste ven pludselig bliver mærkeligt overbeskyttende, ved hun at noget er galt. Men hun kunne aldrig have gættet sig til sandheden – at hun er datter af en mystisk elverkonge, og at hun er en brik i et større magtspil. Nu har hun et valg; hvor langt vil hun gå for at redde dem hun elsker, og for at stoppe en ondskab, som intet magisk væsen nogensinde har vundet imod. Intet har heller forberedt hende på, at hun vil stå ansigt til ansigt med sit livs kærlighed, en ung prins, som hellere vil se hende død, end at lade hende røre hans iskolde hjerte. Jernkongen er første bind i Iron Fey sagaen.

About humans, about rogue dragons, about herself. Ember vows to stand against St. George and her own twin brother, Dante—the heir apparent to all of Talon, and the boy who will soon unleash the greatest threat and terror dragonkind has ever known. Talon is poised to conquer the world, and the abominations they have created will take to the skies, bringing blood and death to those who will not yield. With nothing to lose beyond their lives, Ember and her allies prepare for all-out war. Books in the Talon Saga: Talon Rogue Soldier Legion Inferno

Talon-saaga (3) Silmukka Emberin, Cobaltin ja Garretin ympärillä kiristyy. Talon, lohikäärmeiden kattojärjestö, ei siedä rintamastaan livenneitä karkureita ja on antanut kapinallisille kaksi vaihtoehtoa: antautua tai kuolla. Katseilta piilossa se on kehittämässä aivan uudenlaista tappokonetta, jonka tuhovoimasta kenelläkään ei ole vielä varmaa käsitystä. Samaan aikaan Pyhän Yrjänän Veljeskunta, jolle ainoa hyvä lohikäärme on kuollut lohikäärme, on lisännyt iskujaan vihollisiaan vastaan – välittämättä siitä, onko kohteena Talon vai sitä vastaan taistelevat kapinalliset. Ja kun kammottava salaliitto iskujen takana paljastuu, ei kukaan ole enää turvassa. Ember jatkaa sisäistä Jaakobin painiaan tunteidensa kanssa. Hänessä on kaksi minää, jotka rakastavat tahoillaan: Tulisielu, hänen lohikäärmepuolensa, rakastaa Cobaltia, kapinallisverkoston nuorta johtajaa, ja ihminen hänessä puolestaan Garretia, Pyhän Yrjänän Veljeskunnan kouluttamaa ammattisotilasta. Valinta on tehtävä, vaikka se särkeekin hänen sydämensä. Soturi on Talon-sarjan kolmas teos.

Sagaen om Talon (1) I Julie Kagawas nye trilogi går drager gemt i menneskekroppe rundt blandt os … Første del i Sagaen om Talon For lang tid siden lykkedes det Sankt Georg ordenen at udrydde næsten alle drager. De få, der var tilbage, lærte sig at skjule sig ved at antage menneskelig form – og har siden levet blandt os. Langsomt er de blevet flere, stadigt stærkere, stadigt mere snu. De har skabt Talon, en verdensomspændende organisation, som samler alle dragerne, og nu er de klar til at tage magten fra menneskerne. Ember og Dante Hill er to unge drager, som er vokset op som bror og søster i Talons hemmelige anlæg. De er blevet trænet og forberedt til at infiltrere mennekernes samfund, og den endelige eksamen finder sted i Crescent Beach, en idyllisk badeby i Californien. Ember er nysgerrig og længes efter at opleve en enkelt sommer som en helt almindelig teenager – inden friheden er forbi, og hun skal indtage sin plads i Talons organisation. Men en omstrejfende drage dukker op og sætter spørgsmålstegn ved alt, hvad Ember har lært. Garret Xavier Sebastian er kun 17, men er allerede en erfaren dragedræber. Som soldat i Sankt Georg ordenen er hans opgave at eliminere alle drager – især de unge. Han bliver sendt til Crescent Beach på en opgave: at undersøge to eventuelle Talon-agenter og eliminere dem. Men først skal han være helt sikker på, at de er drager, men med Ember Hill er intet sikkert. Embers mod og selvtillid vender op og ned på alt, hvad Garret har lært. Hvor meget er han villig til at opgive for at finde sandheden om dragerne?
