First to Kill

This detailed companion is essential to all who travel to the lands of Skree, and a must-have for all Wingfeather Saga fans. Now with all-new illustrations! Sketcher, adventurer, disguiser, and sneaker Ollister B. Pembrick roamed all of Skree with a sketchbook and pen, searching behind every tree stump and under every stone, in every river and on every hill, to discover and document the endless living wonders of the Maker's world. He risked life and limb--quite literally--to compile sketches and details of the creatures of Skree, usually from the cover of a hollow log, a hedge, or a pile of leaves. Refer to this carefully documented Creaturepedia before traversing through the Stony Mountains or harvesting fartichokes within a fortnight after a sandstorm. The drawings and field notes about squeeblins, toothy cows, oiples, and more will surely save any explorer's life and will definitely keep them--and their appendages--from being gobbled. Tread carefully, young adventurer. The creatures within are not to be trifled with.

Pembrick's Creaturepedia

The Wingfeather Saga Book 1

Whether a first-time visitor or a repeat traveler to the always mysterious and sometimes treacherous Glipwood Forest, this illustrated guide is an invaluable addition to any Wingfeather fan’s knapsack. A Ranger’s Guide to Glipwood Forest expands the legend and lore of this treacherous land of fatal flora and fanged beasts—and the history of the first adventurers daring enough to brave the forest depths. Through detailed line-art, maps, and directions, travelers can safely marvel at the majestic glipwood trees, poke around the (possibly haunted) Anklejelly Cavern, dip toes into the mighty River Blapp (if you dare!), and avoid falling off a cliff edge into the Dark Sea of Darkness and being swallowed by a sea dragon. Both longtime Wingfeather fans and readers new to the series will be enthralled, tickled, delighted, and occasionally disturbed by never-before-known nuggets, familiar factoids, and all new stories about the forest and the brave Rangers who made passage into its dark depths possible. Don’t attempt an exploration, journey, or meander through Glipwood without it!

The Wingfeather Saga Book 4

The Warden and the Wolf King

Trained Marine sniper Nathan McBride is no stranger to sacrifice. Fourteen years ago, he paid a heavy price in service to his country when he was tortured to the brink of death by Nicaraguan interrogator Montez de Oca. When the FBI uncovers a mutilated corpse from a remote Utah lake, McBride must face the ugly truth that Montez de Oca is back in action and will continue to kill unless McBride can stop him.

Forced to Kill

The ex-CIA agent Nathan McBride doesn't give out his phone number and never reveals his operative name. So how does a twelve-year-old girl whom he's never met know both? The girl's name is Lauren, and after she's been kidnapped, she sends a text for help to Nathan's cell phone. Nathan rescues her, but with the kidnappers hell-bent on reclaiming their prize, the ordeal has only just begun. As he tries to stay one step ahead of their pursuers.

Option to Kill

Making something beautiful in a broken world can be harrowing work, and it can’t be done alone. Over the last twenty years, Andrew Peterson has performed thousands of concerts, published four novels, released ten albums, taught college and seminary classes on writing, founded a nonprofit ministry for Christians in the arts, and executive-produced a film—all in a belief that God calls us to proclaim the gospel and the coming kingdom using whatever gifts are at our disposal. He’s stumbled along the way, made mistake after mistake, and yet has continually encountered the grace of God through an encouraging family, a Christ-centered community of artists in the church, and the power of truth, beauty, and goodness in Scripture and the arts. While there are many books about writing, none deal first-hand with the intersection of songwriting, storytelling, and vocation, along with nuts-and-bolts exploration of the great mystery of creativity. In Adorning the Dark, Andrew describes six principles for the writing life: serving the work serving the audience selectivity discernment discipline and community Through stories from his own journey, Andrew shows how these principles are not merely helpful for writers and artists, but for anyone interested in imitating the way the Creator interacts with his creation. This book is both a memoir of Andrew’s journey and a handbook for artists, written in the hope that his story will provide encouragement to others stumbling along in pursuit of a calling to adorn the dark with the light of Christ.

Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby, the Lost Jewels of Anniera, are hiding from Gnag the Nameless in the Green Hollows, one of the few places in the land of Aerwiar not overrun by the Fangs of Dang. But there's a big problem. Janner's little brother - heir to the throne of Anniera - has grown a tail. And grey fur. Not to mention two pointed ears and long, dangerous fangs. To the suspicious folk of the Green Hollows, he looks like a monster. But Janner knows better. His brother isn't as scary as he looks. He's perfectly harmless. Isn't he?

(Wingfeather Series 3)

Monster in the Hollows

Hay una fuerte conexión bíblica entre las personas y los árboles. Ambos provienen de la suciedad. A ambos se les dice que den fruto. De hecho, el lenguaje arbóreo se aplica tan a menudo a los humanos que es fácil pasarlo por alto, ya sea que estemos hablando de árboles genealógicos, pasando nuestra semilla, cortando a alguien como una rama, estando arraigado en un lugar o llevando el fruto del Espíritu. Es difícil negar que los árboles significan algo, teológicamente hablando. Este libro es en muchos sentidos una memoria, pero también es un intento de despertar al lector a la gloria de Dios brillando a través de su creación. Uno de los primeros mandamientos a Adán y Eva fue "trabajar y guardar" el jardín. El galardonado autor y compositor Andrew Peterson, siendo lo más honesto posible, comparte una historia de infancia, dolor, redención y paz, caminando a través de un bosque de recuerdos: "Confío en que al contar mi historia, te encontrarás con la tuya. Con suerte, como yo, verás que el Dios del Jardín está y siempre ha estado presente, trabajando y manteniendo lo que ama". A veces planta, a veces poda, pero en su bondad tiene la intención de cosechar una cosecha de justicia. There’s a strong biblical connection between people and trees. They both come from dirt. They’re both told to bear fruit. In fact, arboreal language is so often applied to humans that it’s easy to miss, whether we're talking about family trees, passing along our seed, cutting someone off like a branch, being rooted to a place, or bearing the fruit of the Spirit. It’s hard to deny that trees mean something, theologically speaking. This book is in many ways a memoir, but it’s also an attempt to wake up the reader to the glory of God shining through his creation. One of the first commands to Adam and Eve was to “work and keep” the garden. Award-winning author and songwriter Andrew Peterson, being as honest as possible, shares a story of childhood, grief, redemption, and peace, by walking through a forest of memories: “I trust that by telling my story, you’ll encounter yours. Hopefully, like me, you’ll see that the God of the Garden is and has always been present, working and keeping what he loves.” Sometimes he plants, sometimes he prunes, but in his goodness he intends to reap a harvest of righteousness.

El Dios del jardín

Seven Thrilling Stories from the World of Aerwiar

Wingfeather Tales

Janner, Tink og Leeli Igiby trodde de var vanlige barn med vanlige liv og en vanlig fortid. Nå vet de at de er Annieras juveler, arvinger til et sagnomsust kongerike på den andre siden av havet, og at mange ønsker livet av dem. For å overleve må Igby-barna flykte i sikkerhet til Ispræriene, der hangene fra Dang ikke kan følge etter. Men før de kommer så langt, må de ta seg forbi monstrene i Glipetreskogen, de tjuvaktige stranderne i Østsvingen og den fryktede gaffelfabrikken. Det aller farligste er likevel sjalusien og bitterheten som truer med å drive dem fra hverandre. Janner og søsknene hans får smertelig erfare at kjærligheten til familien er viktigere enn alt annet. Fantasy for mellomtrinnet.
