In this riveting sequel to the Newbery-Award winning Crispin: The Cross of Lead--the second book in a planned trilogy--Avi explores themes of war, religion, and family as he continues the adventures of Crispin and Bear. The more I came to know of the world, the more I knew I knew it not. He was a nameless orphan, marked for death by his masters for an unknown crime. Discovering his name- Crispin-only intensified the mystery. Then Crispin met Bear, who helped him learn the secret of his full identity. And in Bear-the enormous, red-bearded juggler, sometime spy, and everyday philosopher-Crispin also found a new father and a new world. Now Crispin and Bear have set off to live their lives as free men. But they don't get far before their past catches up with them: Bear is being pursued by members of the secret brotherhood who believe he is an informer. When Bear is badly wounded, it is up to Crispin to make decisions about their future-where to go, whom to trust. Along the way they become entangled with an extraordinary range of people, each of whom affects Crispin and Bear's journey in unexpected ways. To find freedom and safety, they may have to travel to the edge of the world-even if it means confronting death itself.
Unleashed by ancient geologic forces, a magnitude 8.25 earthquake rocked San Francisco in the early hours of April 18, 1906. Less than a minute later, the city lay in ruins. Bestselling author Simon Winchester brings his inimitable storytelling abilities to this extraordinary event, exploring the legendary earthquake and fires that spread horror across San Francisco and northern California in 1906 as well as its startling impact on American history and, just as important, what science has recently revealed about the fascinating subterranean processes that produced it—and almost certainly will cause it to strike again.

Volcano You blow yourself up to nurture your children, to draw attention to a larger reality than human history, to teach us that destruction is part of creation, to remind us that the Earth is alive and every day of bearable light is a gift.
In the summer of '87, Chris Marshal travels to the Western Isles of Scotland and spends the night in a remote mountain hut. There, he's joined by an adventurous backpacker, Jen Munroe, who invites him to go with her on the trip of a lifetime, just the two of them, hiking along the old Hippy trail, all the way to India. But Chris is shy, and afraid of this bold, confident woman. He says no, then wakes the following morning to find her gone. It's then he realizes going with her was actually the one thing his life actually needed, that he's now doomed to spend the rest of it searching for the essence of what it was he lost that day. Through the cold-war of the eighties, the surveillance-capitalism and political disintegration of the early twenty-first century, and finally into the depths of a very British dystopia, Chris does his best to adapt, but is forever wishing he could turn back time, and strike out along a more authentic path. And of course, never far from his thoughts is Jen. She's never far from his dreams either, and in particular his strange recurring dreams of the Inn at the Edge of Light, a place where there's always a welcome, wise counsel, and a warm bed for the night. Here too might lie the answer to the enigma of his life, if he could only work out why it is the landlord keeps asking him if he's happy always with the same room,... Or if he'd like a change now and then.
