  • Redwall

    Creator

    Jacques, Brian

    Abstract

    When Redwall was published in 1987 it catapulted author Brian Jacques to international stardom. And small wonder! This enthralling tale is jam-packed with the things we long for in a great adventure: danger, laughter, hairbreadth escapes, tragedy, mystery, a touch of wonder, a truly despicable villain, and a hero we can take to heart. That hero is Matthias, a young mouse who must rise above his fears and failures to save his friends at Redwall Abbey. The villain is Cluny the Scourge, one of the most deliciously despicable rats of all time.

  • Kingdom of villains

    Creator

    Fields, Ella

    Abstract

    A dark fae prince with a beastly secret. A faerie princess with a curiosity for things better left alone. A bond that will turn enemies to lovers. A love that might cost them their lives ... I'd known exactly who he was--the Unseelie prince. But I hadn't known just what he was. I'd been fooled. The creature I'd formed a tentative friendship with in my family's dungeon was not the gentle, intriguing prince I'd thought him to be. He was a monster. A bloodthirsty beast. And I'd helped him escape my uncle's clutches.
