In the still evening air he heard the very soft but very distinct sound ... of a war horn. Excitement grips fifteen-year-old Michael Zachary as he rides out for the first time to help patrol the perilous eastern border of King Krydon's kingdom. Having grown up on a remote farm in the dangerous wilderness, Michael is very good with a sword, but even better with a bow. His father has trained him well. Skilled and courageous, he is as much a warrior as a farmer; he has to be. As the youngest member of the patrol, Michael fights both men and wolves. But will he have the courage to stand up for what he believes in the face of opposition? Michael must wrestle with himself and try to overcome the doubts of the older and more experienced fighting men on the patrol-so they can all survive the challenges that lie ahead.

Too busy to spend the money they make, too clever not to shuffle a little beneath the bright lights of their high-gloss worlds, when George's boss buys out Lizzie's company, making her his personal advisor, the couple discovers that no amount of super-modern spin can erase certain basic instincts...

All but one of its crew is killed by the massive serpentine horror that rises from the sea. The creature likes this human prey. The chewy outer hide. The tender saltiness within. And it wants more… IT FEEDS Responding to a distress signal, fishing-boat captain Brian Hawkins arrives in time to save the ship’s last survivor. But the nightmare is just beginning.

IT IS REAL . . . Some call it a spirit, a demon. Others, an all-consuming force of nature. According to Cree legend, it goes by the name of Wendigo. For a hundred years it has been sleeping. Resting beneath the earth. Buried in a godless no-man’s-land known as Resurrection Pass . . . IT IS RISING . . . Led by half-Cree guide Jake Trueblood, a clandestine team of exploratory miners enter a remote valley in the Canadian wilderness. Searching for veins of untapped rare earth elements, they begin drilling into the spongy soils of the forest—and uncover something unbelievably large, unspeakably grotesque, and inexplicably alive . . . IT IS RAVENOUS. Within seconds, all hell breaks loose. Giant grasping tendrils shoot out of the earth. Poisonous spores explode into the air. And the horrified miners become a living, screaming feast for the biggest, hungriest creature the world has ever seen. Jake Trueblood and a young ecologist named Rachel barely escape with their lives, only to confront the Okitchawa, a murderous group of local Cree infuriated by the presence of the mining team. But even if they can escape the Okitchawa, Jake and Rachel’s ordeal is far from over. The nightmare is just beginning . . . to feed.
