Actually, every book does this. We are all part of the books we read, because our individual reactions, ideas, and emotions make the book whole, and these things are changing all the time. Keri Smith has helped millions of people free their creativity and find their own voice with her interactive books, and now she brings that sensibility to children and to the act of reading. This picture book is an invitation to honor your own vision and to welcome imperfection. Kids will discover that reading can engage all five senses, and that what they themselves bring to a book is an important contribution.
Cayden Veles, renowned Demon Commander of Vareveth, overthrew the throne to save Elowen Atarah, the woman he searched for since childhood. Now he’s determined to fulfill his quest for revenge against her father, even if it means forcing the only person he’s ever wanted into a marriage of political convenience.
Elowen Atarah has everything she thought she’d ever want. Finally reunited with her dragons, she now has an army to enact vengeance, but as events transpire, she begins contemplating if she wants more. As her father’s only living heir, the Imirath throne is her right and destiny. But fighting and winning a war will require trusting Cayden Veles, her partner in crime and now king to her queen; the man she both longs for and doubts, especially after opening her heart only to become a pawn in his game.
Navigating the shifting allegiances amongst all the kingdoms of Ravaryn will require all their strategy and strength, with devastating and bloody attacks on one side and cutthroat diplomacy for alliances on the other. But Elowen and Cayden must find a way to stand strong within the power they’ve gained, or risk losing everything.
Delving deeper into a vast and ever-changing world, Wrath of the Dragons will take you on a journey filled with epic battles and a tender, angsty love for the ages.

The world outside has grown toxic, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. The remnants of humanity live underground in a single silo.
But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they want: They are allowed to go outside.
After the previous sheriff leaves the silo in a terrifying ritual, Juliette, a mechanic from the down deep, is suddenly and inexplicably promoted to the head of law enforcement. With newfound power and with little regard for the customs she is supposed to abide, Juliette uncovers hints of a sinister conspiracy. Tugging this thread may uncover the truth . . . or it could kill every last human alive.
Ludwig Wittgenstein ha conquistado la imaginación popular como el Sócrates moderno, el fascinante maestro del razonamiento enigmático quien, con su fría lógica, convenció a Bertrand Russell de que había un hipopótamo en la habitación. Es un icono del modernismo, pero ¿qué es lo que dijo realmente? En Wittgenstein, una guía ilustrada, nos encontramos con un hombre extraño, un lógico riguroso que daba más importancia a la poesía que a la filosofía, que heredó una fortuna y la donó, que buscó la muerte en las fronteras de la Primera Guerra Mundial, un gran profesor que aconsejaba a sus estudiantes a abandonar la filosofía, un hombre solitario que, sin embargo, inspiró amistades que duraron toda la vida. También nos ofrece una guía clara y accesible para introducirnos en la obra principal de Wittgenstein, el Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, un glaciar de lógica, y su más tardía y accesible Investigaciones lógicas. Esta es una introducción accesible para cualquiera desconcertado ante la complejidad o intrigado por la reputación de este gran filósofo del siglo XX.
