Somewhere deep beneath the massive root system of our northern Canadian forest lies the continent of Nethermost, floating on a pool of liquid gold — Nethermost, an underground realm, home to magical and non-magical folk, a prosperous society with a consistently temperate climate, secreted on Earth’s second layer under unexplored wilderness — until four decades ago.
Now it is a Nethermost has been brought to its knees, many of its citizens exiled, its climate in ruins. What remains it is a disarray of miserable survivors living with exile and misery. It is a realm virtually destroyed by the disappointed younger brother of Nethermost's rightful Swayer, Nicola. Eighteen year old Cait O’Quinn knows nothing of the continent Nethermost, let alone of its grim plight. Raised in virtual captivity at the edge of nowhere Canada, she is self-deprecating and unsure. After being convinced that the fate of Nethermost rests on her uneasy shoulders, Cait's panic is palpable — “I’m just a stupid girl of little significance, leading a very dull life on a very small bump in the road. What do you want from me?" For ages 15 and up.

The Nights and Times of Ned Clery
"Why would a Rhyll want to be friends with an ordinary boy like me?"
"Why would a Rhyll want to be friends with an ordinary boy like me?"
$19
This question refrains every time Ned Clery remembers that first encounter with the strangely shaped clump one full moon night in his vegetable patch. From the instant that it glows green and hums tunefully in response to his innocent questions, Ned is caught up in a curiosity and daring that begins a series of journeys to mystical realms, to meet a cast of wonderful beings and to solve a puzzle-book full of challenges. With the flawed reasoning of a ten year old, his decision to transplant the Rhyll to a flowerpot begins a chain of missteps that transports him in his greenhouse on an irregular schedule of full moon night adventures.
For ages 9 and up.
