The Realms of Nyx have been peaceful ... until now. Short-eared elf Dru is a warrior in training. Long-ear Bren is an apprentice mage. Their two tribes have been taught to distrust each other. But when their families and entire villages suddenly disappear, Dru and Bren only have one choice: to join forces and enter the Mysterious Forest in search of those they love. According to legend, the forest is full of terrifying and mysterious occurrences and creatures. Dru and Bren have zero reason to trust each other. To make matters worse, neither elf has ever dared to enter the forest alone. And if their villages have been taken by the soul suckers, as they suspect, then entering the forest is the worst thing they can do. Will they be able to find their loved ones, or will they disappear into the forest without a trace? Or worse, be taken by the soul suckers?

KEY SELLING POINTS: • A new fantasy series about short-ear and long-ear elf tribes fighting to save their world from the soul suckers that want to destroy them. • The first book in a brand-new quest series for readers who love adventure, mystery and magic. • Includes gorgeous black-and-white illustrations inside by Chad Mitchell. • Beautifully written by Yvette Poshoglian, the best-selling author of the Ella and Olivia series. • For fans of Deltora Quest and Nevermoor fantasy series.

MACKENZI LEE Type: NOVEL SCHOLASTIC AUSTRALIA Age Level: 13+ 9781761990069 Dimensions: 194 X 133 MM PAPERBACK Page Count: 320 PP

From New York Times best-selling author Mackenzi Lee comes a thrilling tale set in the world of the Masters of the Universe live-action film, where Eternian warrior Teela must decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice to save the people—and home—she loves. A Fallen kingdom. A Forbidden alliance. A Magic that could Save— Or Destroy—Them all. Four years after Skeletor decimated the kingdom of Eternos, Teela and the scattered refugees of Eternia survive by never staying in one place for long. When a brutal storm of acidic rain deep within the Evergreen Forest leaves their camp ravaged and hope at its thinnest, some, like Teela’s friend Locke, begin to plan for a future beyond Eternia. But Teela knows her father, Duncan, the once-mighty Man-At-Arms, won’t survive leaving the land he swore to protect. Desperate to save her people, Teela ventures to Darksmoke to bargain with the ancient dragon Granamyr. He bestows upon her a vial filled with a mysterious, powerful elixir—and no instructions on its use. Enter Evil-Lyn, Skeletor’s ruthless second-in-command, who intercepts Teela with a dangerous proposal: an alliance. In exchange for the vial’s secrets, Teela and the Heroic Warriors must someday help the sorceress overthrow Skeletor himself. The vial heals the sick and brings food back to empty tables— until the forest around the camp begins to change. Rivers vanish. Trees peel to bone. Creatures flee. As the land around them withers at an ever-increasing pace, Teela must confront an impossible question: Has the very magic she used to save her people doomed Eternia instead?

Thanos is in the final stage of his plan to collect the Infinity Stones. With the other Stones scattered across the galaxy, the Children of Thanos set their sights on the Mind and Soul Stones that are on Earth. But the Avengers won’t make it easy for them to get the Stones … nor will the Guardians of the Galaxy stay quiet across the other side of the universe.

After the battle for the gauntlet, the remaining Avengers unite to take down Thanos ... and they succeed. Now, five years have passed and those who remain are learning to live without all the people they lost in the blip. That is until Scott Lang appears at the Avengers Compound and gives the heroes hope that they might have a chance to bring back all that was lost. Join the Avengers as they take a final stand against the Mad Titan from the past!
