New Dragon City
by Mari MancusiSet off on a high-stakes, action-packed adventure in this story about friendship, survival, and fighting for ones you love, perfect for fans of Wings of Fire and How to Train Your Dragon. No one predicted the dragon apocalypse. The dragons came suddenly and decimated the world as we knew it, including New York City. Now, three years later, Noah, his hardcore survivalist father, and a ragtag group of survivors are barely scraping by in this new reality. Kids scavenge not only for materials in abandoned homes but also for leftover books at the library. Adults spend their time establishing a make-shift society and defending their shelter... with any means available. At least for the few months the dragons are hibernating, until it&’s no longer safe aboveground. Noah has seen the damage these creatures can do firsthand. When it comes to dragons: It's kill or be killed. But a chance encounter between Noah and a young dragon causes him to question everything he thought he knew. With rumors spreading that there&’s a group of survivors living in harmony with dragons instead of hiding underground, Noah teams up with his fire-breathing ally to find out if peace between humans and dragons is really possible. But the division runs deeper than scales versus skin because trying to follow his heart might just cost Noah his family too. If Noah and his father can&’t see eye to eye, can he really get humans and dragons to?

A New Fiedler Reader
by Leslie A. FiedlerLeslie Fiedler's radical opinions and theories have changed the way we think about literature and pop culture, challenging long-established schools and ushering in a genre of first-person, experience-based criticism. His views, such as suggesting that college students read Timothy Leary along with John Milton, and his willingness to treat comic books, soap operas, soft porn movies, and romance novels as seriously as the canonical great books, often outraged an intellectual community that labeled him controversial, obscene, and annoying. Fiedler was accused of corrupting the young with dangerous leftist ideas that challenge some of the most dearly held traditional beliefs and easy affirmations, as well as unqualified pieties and allegiances. Now praised and respected as "one of the most important figures in the history of American cultural thought in this century," Fiedler has been applauded for introducing groundbreaking concepts that currently permeate university studies i! n literature. Designed to delight Fiedler's contemporary audience and introduce the author to a whole new generation of readers, A NEW FIEDLER READER is a captivating anthology of Fiedler's most notorious essays, from the often misread and maligned "Come Back to the Raft Ag'in, Huck Honey!" to the creative evaluation of an American literary giant in "An Almost Imaginary Interview: Hemingway in Ketchum." Also included are more recent essays, such as "In Every Generation: A Meditation on the Two Holocausts" and "Who's the Cowboy? Who's the Indian? The Slowest Gun in the West." Complementing these essays are various lesser-known poems and short stories, providing the reader with the complete Fiedler experience.
