Krabat and the Sorcerer's Mill

by Anthea Bell Otfried Preussler

New 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.

Krakatoa: The Day the World Exploded: August 27, 1883

by Simon Winchester

The bestselling author of The Professor and the Madman and The Map That Changed the World examines the enduring and world-changing effects of the catastrophic eruption off the coast of Java of the earth's most dangerous volcano -- Krakatoa.The legendary annihilation in 1883 of the volcano-island of Krakatoa -- the name has since become a byword for a cataclysmic disaster -- was followed by an immense tsunami that killed nearly forty thousand people. Beyond the purely physical horrors of an event that has only very recently been properly understood, the eruption changed the world in more ways than could possibly be imagined. Dust swirled round die planet for years, causing temperatures to plummet and sunsets to turn vivid with lurid and unsettling displays of light. The effects of the immense waves were felt as far away as France. Barometers in Bogotá and Washington, D.C., went haywire. Bodies were washed up in Zanzibar. The sound of the island's destruction was heard in Australia and India and on islands thousands of miles away. Most significant of all -- in view of today's new political climate -- the eruption helped to trigger in Java a wave of murderous anti-Western militancy among fundamentalist Muslims: one of the first outbreaks of Islamic-inspired killings anywhere.Simon Winchester's long experience in the world wandering as well as his knowledge of history and geology give us an entirely new perspective on this fascinating and iconic event as he brings it telling back to life.

Luna Lee, fragile and vague, had wandered off for parts unknown. And that left fifteen-year-old Livvy, self-reliant and practical, all alone. True, her mother sent her a postcard now and again, but never a clue to her whereabouts--or when she might return, if ever. Livvy knew if it was learned that she was on her own, her mother could be in trouble. For that matter, so could Livvy, because what if the officials forced her to live with her obnoxious uncle and his family?--a fate that Livvy hopes to avoid at all costs! And so for two years, Livvy has expertly managed to keep secret from the people of Kumquat, her home town, the fact that she is alone. This is harder than it might seem because Kumquats folks are quite nosy. Yet, it is also easier than it should be, because Kumquats folks, like many of us, are too busy and self-absorbed to look too deeply into Livvy's various ruses. Only Livvy's best friend, Rosella, knows, and she loyally helps Livvy maintain her secret. But two years of living alone has made Livvy lonely and vulnerable. When Raymond comes along, it's too easy to fall in love. In love with Raymond, Livvy wants to tell him her secret too. But can Raymond be trusted?
