Trying to keep up with reading and writing the reviews - while getting more great books.
On the northwest side of Chicago, Ruby has a perfect life. Her family feeds her everyday, they are home with her all the time, and they allow her to patrol the backyard. What more could a dog ask for? But when Ruby meets Ortis the blue bunny, all of this changes. In order to help Ortis return to his home in The Six Realms, Ruby must jump into the family's pool with the rabbit. Ruby never expected anything to happen. But when the water started swirling and pulled her under, there was nothing the little dog could do. Now Ruby is in Rocia, one of the Six Realms underneath the earth. This new land is fraught with dangers at every corner, from hideous Crites to the ball-like Ozzixites. But something else has been silently pulling strings from inside the Diamond Dust Desert. An evil, older than the world itself, has begun its plans. The fate of the Six Realms and Ruby's home in the world above is at stake. Now, Ruby must brave these strange new lands to save everything she holds dear.
A radical fundamentalist will stop at nothing to create a global Caliphate, a Muslim Empire. The world-s safety rests on American Steve Church, a businessman recruited by the CIA as a reluctant undercover operative.
Interesting books...I've not heard of either of these titles. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThat Caliphate book sounds very good!
