Binglow is a young pig-troll (Paglot) of the Torry Mountains, who decides to follow the advice of the Black Dwarfs to join the resistance against the cannibal swine-dogs – Opules. Of course, it wasn't for free, as the Black Dwarfs were mining gold in the Torry catacombs. Such a tempting offer lured Binglow and his pig-troll friends to prepare for an ambush, but there was one little problem.

While scouting over Norwin, he finds more friends from Amber Heights, Kazool, and other nooks of the fantasy terrain, to form the alliance. Alas, revealing awkwardness and inability in expelling the stronger enemy. A brutal force was not the point of Norwin, the land that lay in prosperous glens of an upcoming disintegration. The magic was all forgotten, or hidden in the hands of those who had barely preserved it.

The team of young rebels, at last, had started noticing that many problems of their lands weren't coming just from the evil intruders of Shakalot, but from something else...

Alice Alexis Queensmeadow, a twelve-year-old girl, cherishes three things above all: her Mother, who wouldn't miss her; magic and color, which seem to elude her; and her Father, who always loved her. Father disappeared from Ferenwood with only a ruler, almost three years ago.

Alice is determined to find him, embarking on a quest that will take her through the mythical and dangerous land of Furthermore. Here, down can be up, paper is alive, and left can be both right and very, very wrong. Her only companion is Oliver, whose own magic is based in lies and deceit.

In this enchanting world, Alice must first find herself and hold fast to the magic of love in the face of loss. Join her on this colorful adventure, where every page is filled with whimsy and wonder.

A year has passed since the Tournament. Fletcher and Ignatius have been locked away in Pelt’s dungeons, but now they must face a trial at the hands of the Inquisition, a powerful institution controlled by those who would delight in Fletcher’s downfall.

The trial is haunted by ghosts from the past with shocking revelations about Fletcher’s origins, but he has little time to dwell on them; the graduating students of Vocans are to be sent deep into the orc jungles to complete a dangerous mission for the king and his council. If they fail, the orcish armies will rise to power beyond anything the Empire has ever seen.

With loyal friends Othello and Sylva by his side, Fletcher must battle his way to the heart of Orcdom and save Hominum from destruction… or die trying.

Daring mission... or deadly mistake?

But even the bravest dragons can’t follow him to the Ice Kingdom, where he’ll have to face the greatest threat of all: his own family.
