Quest Kids and the Dark Prophecy of Doug (Quest Kids)
by Mark LeiknesIt's been six months since the Quest Kids—Ned, Terra, Gil, Boulder, and Ash—saved a village from a furious dragon (no big deal) and turned their questing efforts toward finding Ned&’s parents. But when the crew notices a serious sense of doom and gloom across the Seven Kingdoms, they set out in search of Doug, whose mysterious Dark Prophecy has the potential to send the world into even more dire darkness and dread. With help from new and old friends, the Quest Kids sail through stormy seas, vacation on the newly rebranded Contentment Island, and venture into the Forsaken Lands to find Doug, whose wicked tunes and even wickeder plans are in full force. Can the Quest Kids get it together to counter Doug's plans and find Ned's parents—or must they watch as a triumphant Doug surfs on waves of fire and fulfills his terrible prophecy?
Quest Kids and the Dragon Pants of Gold (Quest Kids)
by Mark LeiknesComics artist Mark Leiknes delivers a laugh-out-loud story set in a fantastic world of dragons, rock creatures, and golden loungewear. The Quest Kids are ready for their first real quest. This time, they won&’t oversleep, they won&’t be put off by a little rain, and they won&’t accidentally burn down the village that hired them. All they have to do is find the Golden-Fleeced Rage Beast, shave it, and make a really nice golden tracksuit to appease a furious dragon. Simple, right? Meet the Quest Kids crew: Gil, a wizard (well, wizard in training . . . the beard isn&’t his); Terra, a 700-year-old elf kid; Boulder, a rock troll who is more of a cook than a fighter; Ash, a flatulent pig-dog-maybe-lizard hybrid; and, Ned, the intrepid and overly optimistic leader with his own personal quest to find his missing parents. With humor, magic, mystery, and at least one acid swamp filled with skeletal alligators, Quest Kids and the Dragon Pants of Gold is a richly illustrated saga of fantasy friendship for readers from all kingdoms!

In the wake of the narrow escape from the evil Doug (an ex-bard determined to bum out and rule the world), the Quest Kids&’ leader, Ned, was turned into a Doug-loving zombie by Doug&’s powerful soul-stealing gem. The rest of the Quest Kids—Terra, Boulder, Gil, and Ash—have spent a year wandering the Seven Kingdoms, going from town to town trying to warn the people of Doug&’s impending invasion. But always too late! By the time they revive Ned, all but one kingdom—the Goblin citadel of Dunglemire—has been transformed into mindless Doug fans. Arriving at Dunglemire, the Quest Kids find a huge encampment of Doug followers, ready for the biggest soul-stealing event of all time: Dougfest! The Quest Kids must work fast to pierce the impassable walls of Dunglemire, make common cause with the mysterious, and reputedly hideous, Goblins, and solve the mystery of an ancient spell that can neutralize Doug and free the world. Using their wits, magic, and questing knowledge (as well as the help of a flame-farting dog-lizard thing), can the Quest Kids stop this world conquerer? And can they reunite Ned and his long-lost parents? Mixing clever diary-style writing with charming graphic novel sequences, Mark Leiknes once again takes readers on a hilarious romp through the perilous world of the Quest Kids.
Quest for Lost Heroes
by David A. Gemmell"You are good with a rapier," said Logar. "I am better with a saber," Chareos answered. "In that case we will take no chances," hissed Logar. "Kill him!" Two swordsmen leapt forward. Chareos blocked a wild slash, spun to avoid a second thrust, and back handed his blade across the first man's throat. Blood spurted and the attacker fell, thrusting his fingers at the wound in a vain attempt to stem the flow of his life. The second attacker sent a cut at Chareos' head, but he ducked. The swordsman fell back, eyes widening. "Well?" Chareos glared at Logar. Logar attacked. Chareos leapt back from a slice that would have disemboweled him. Then he swept a ri poste that plunged into Logar's groin, severing the huge artery at the top of the inner thigh. Logar stared at the blood drenching his leggings; then his legs gave way and he fell to his knees before Chareos. He blinked up at his killer before toppling to the ground . . .

As he searched, so grew his own powers, his fearful heritage. Across wide seas, in conquered cities, and among haunted mountains, the hunt took him.
