When Basil discovers a threat to his world and to Merlin, he begins an epic journey that takes him from the Great Tree of Avalon to the outermost edges of the spirit realm.

The Dragon of Despair (Through Wolf's Eyes #3)
by Jane LindskoldFrom Publishers Weekly In Lindskold's exciting third installment of her wolf-girl fantasy saga (after 2002's Wolf's Head, Wolf's Heart), Firekeeper finds herself deeply entangled in the politics and intrigues of her high-born human relations and even more so in the fight for survival of her alternate family, the Royal Beasts of the forest. (Despite the title, the action has little to do with dragons.) Malevolent sorceress Lady Melina Shield has wed New Kelvin's version of a king and become his "Consolor." Hawk Haven's King Tedric wants to know exactly what Melina is up to, and the only way he can discover her plans is by sending an expedition to New Kelvin, ostensibly as a trade delegation. If that isn't enough to worry about, unauthorized settlers have encroached on the territory of the Royal Beasts, forcing them (and therefore Firekeeper, as a member of the pack) to declare themselves ready for war against humans. Since Firekeeper is, as it were, neither fish nor fowl, she finds her loyalties divided in a most uncomfortable situation. While the feisty Firekeeper plays a subordinate role here, the author provides lots of engrossing lore about pack behavior and feral animals. Fans can look forward to more of Firekeeper's unique perspective in the fourth book, the start of a new sequence, Wolf Captured.

The Dragon's Apprentice (The Dragon's Apprentice)
by James RileyIn this hilarious fantasy adventure from the New York Times bestselling author of the Story Thieves series, a girl strikes a deal with the ancient, cranky dragon she accidentally summoned to teach her the forbidden magic she needs to save her mother.STOP. Don&’t read any further. There are magic spells in this book, and the Emperor has forbidden anyone from learning magic, because it&’s way too dangerous! If you try one of the spells, any number of terrible things might happen (or so the Emperor says). Don&’t be like Ciara, a twelve-year-old girl living in the tiny village of Skael. When she used a spell from within this book, she ended up summoning a dragon. A DRAGON! Those things breathe fire! From their mouths! She&’s obviously doomed. And don&’t listen if Ciara tells you that dragons won&’t hurt humans, and that they even once taught us magic, a thousand years ago. Definitely don&’t pay any attention to the fact that the dragon she summoned, Scorch, might be willing to help rescue Ciara&’s mother and free her village from the Emperor and his Warden, because it&’s all obviously a big lie. So put this book down, and forget about it. Magic is just way too dangerous. After all, you wouldn&’t want to summon your own dragon, would you?
