Koyal Dark, Mango Sweet
by Kashmira ShethJeeta's family is caught up in the whirlwind of arranging marriages for her two older sisters, but the drama and excitement leave Jeeta cold. Even though tradition demands the parade of suitors, the marriage negotiations and the elaborate displays, sixteen-year old Jeeta wonders what happened to the love and romance that the movies promise? She dreads her turn on the matrimonial circuit, especially since Mummy is always complaining about how Jeeta's dark skin and smart mouth will turn off potential husbands. But when Jeeta's smart mouth and liberal ideas land her in love with her friend's cousin Neel, she must strike a balance between duty to her tradition-bound parents, and the strength to follow her heart.Kashmira Sheth was born in Bhavanger, Gujart, India and immigrated to the United States at the age of 17. Sheth attended Iowa State University where she received her B.S. in Microbiology. She is married to a civil engineer and they have two daughters. Sheth is both a scientist and an author. Sheth has worked for the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection as a microbiologist. In 2012 she will teach at the Solstice Low-Residency MFA in Creative Writing Program at Pine Manor College. In her free time Sheth teaches Indian dance to children."Warmly descriptive of life in Mumbai (formerly Bombay), this love story has a rich sense of place. Sixteen-year-old Jeeta's mother is consumed with the problems of arranging marriages for her three daughters and is sure that Jeeta's dark skin and smart mouth will turn off prospective grooms. But the teen's new friend, Sarina, opens her eyes to other possibilities. Discovering the pleasures of learning, Jeeta does well in her last year at school and enters college hoping to study law. Then, a handsome boy whom she meets at the swimming pool turns out to be Sarina's cousin. Because her mother forbids her to socialize with boys, she uses visits to Sarina to provide cover for their developing relationship. Readers may feel let down by the inconclusive ending, expecting at least an engagement, but the family's movement toward more modern ways is realistic. The novel reads like a memoir written by someone who wants to hold on to every detail of a remembered life. The tensions of family life in a small apartment are evident and the conflict between old beliefs and customs and the modern world is clear. Like the matrimonial ad her friend quotes, Jeeta is a girl with strong east-west family values, with all the contradictions that that statement suggests. This first-person narrative is a lush and loving exploration of coming of age." -Kathleen Isaacs, Towson University, MDCopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Krabat and the Sorcerer's Mill
by Anthea Bell Otfried PreusslerNew Year's has passed. Twelfth Night is almost here. Krabat, a fourteen-year-old beggar boy dressed up as one of the Three Kings, is traveling from village to village singing carols. One night he has a strange dream in which he is summoned by a faraway voice to go to a mysterious mill--and when he wakes he is irresistibly drawn there. At the mill he finds eleven other boys, all of them, like him, the apprentices of its Master, a powerful sorcerer, as Krabat soon discovers. During the week the boys work ceaselessly grinding grain, but on Friday nights the Master initiates them into the mysteries of the ancient Art of Arts. One day, however, the sound of church bells and of a passing girl singing an Easter hymn penetrates the boys' prison: At last a plan is set in motion that will win them their freedom and put an end to the Master's dark designs. Krabat & the Sorcerer's Mill was one of Cornelia Funke's most beloved books as a child, and it is easy to see why. It is a wondrous story of magic, black and white; of courage and cunning; and of high adventure.

Kreaturenjagd
by Vianka Van Bokkem Torsten SimonEine Gruppe Wissenschaftler aus Area 51 gaben mir den Namen Elixia. Ich bin eine Jägerin mit Talenten. Meine Anfänge sind in einem ihrer Labore zu finden, die von der "The Abnormal Hunters Society", einer Gruppe exzentrischer Millionäre, gestiftet wurden. Meine Aufgabe ist es, Feinde, die nicht menschlich sind, zu töten oder zu fangen. Sie gaben mir das Aussehen eines neunzehnjährigen Mädchens. Meine Haut und meine kurzen Haare sehen wie eine Kombination aus den Farben Blau und Grün aus. Meine Adern sind weiß und meine Augen haben den hellsten Gelbton, den man sich nur vorstellen kann. Ich muss sogar immer eine dunkle Sonnenbrille tragen, weil wenn Menschen sie sehen denken sie, dass ich ein Vampir oder Werwolf bin. Zu meinen zahlreichen Talenten zähle ich die Fähigkeit, durch meinen Willen mein Aussehen zu verändern, um mich unter die Menschen mischen zu können. Ich bin kein Gestaltwandler, also kann ich nur meine Haarfarbe in Platinsilber ändern und meine Haut weiß werden lassen. Meine Augen bleiben so. Meine Talente geben mir die Möglichkeit die Aufgabe zu erledigen, für die ich geschaffen wurde; Aliens, Vampire, abtrünnige Engel, Werwölfe und so weiter zu jagen.

Our tale begins in 500 A.D., when goblins kidnapped human children and set them to work in underground mines. Kringle is one such child... until he discovers his mission -- to free children from enslavement. His legend lives on today, as he travels the earth every Christmas Eve to quell the goblins once more.
