Ding Dong, the Technowitch is dead.As an illegal clone of the murdered galactic princess, Dora's face would get her killed the minute she steps off her dull farming moon. She spends her days tinkering with gadgets and gears, with Tau, her kitchen-timer-bot, for company. But when forces close in and threaten her family, her escape attempt lands her deep in the Outer Zone - and on top of the Technowitch of Night, crushing her in the process.Now a fugitive in two solar systems, Dora's only chance of survival is to find her way to the mysterious Technomage on his Emerald moon. In a place where science has advanced to be indistinguishable from magic, she must accept the help of an unlikely trio: a cryogenically-preserved girl with no memory, an obsolete theme park droid, and a bioengineered beast with a penchant for the dramatic.As Dora realizes there's more to the princess's death than what the universe has been told, she must choose - save her family, or risk everything to right a centuries-old wrong.

Silvia Scheibli new book of poetry, "In the House of Rain," contains nature poetry inspired by locations in the southwest United States. Shy is an internationally acclaimed poet who is the author of six previous collections of poetry.

"Magical Moon" is an enchanting tale written entirely in verse, where magic and mystery intertwine in gentle ways. On a fateful night under the glow of the harvest moon, an ancient book of runes is discovered in an attic, setting the stage for a series of magical adventures. This is no ordinary book; it holds the power to answer any question asked of it, but only if the query is inscribed perfectly upon the restless, wavering lines drawn on a parchment that was found with it. The book's unique challenge is met with the help of an enchanted pen, brought by a resourceful raccoon. It can write perfectly on the wavering lines. As each question is carefully written, the words turn into runes and shimmer to life, and the magic book opens on a page that contains the answer to the question. The answers, however, are not in any language known to the common reader. Instead, they require the interpretation of a special cast sent by the magical moon itself. This sets off a chain of fantastical events and adventures that make up each of the thirteen stories in this book. The magical moon's celestial envoy includes a diverse array of characters, each more whimsical than the last: a banker to the stars, a perpetually confused genie who blunders in charming ways; a Bedouin merchant who who has been to magic places; and a host of other mystical beings, each bringing their own peculiar flair to the unfolding drama. These characters are not mere readers; they are gatekeepers to other worlds, each answer a portal to wondrwous places. Through these adventures, readers are transported to vivid locales: the opulent palace of the bemused genie, the scholarly halls of a celestial university, and even a secretive city inhabited by thieves. Each setting is rendered in rich, poetic detail, inviting readers to lose themselves in environments that pulse with magic and mystery. The book is structured around thirteen questions, and with each query, the story delves deeper into the enchanting world of the magical moon. These questions do more than advance the plot; they weave a complex narrative tapestry, revealing hidden layers of the story with each answer. The land of the magical certainties and elusive truths is slowly pieced together by the reader, forming a picture that is as beautiful as it is enigmatic. "Magical Moon" is not just a book; it is an experience. It is a journey through a land where the boundaries between the possible and the impossible blur, where every page holds a new enchantment, and every rune is a promise of a new adventure. As the banker to the stars might tell you, this book represents transaction number 5-4-3-2 in the Magical Moon's ledgers, a mystical record where every entry hints at stories waiting to be told, inviting you to leap into its pages and discover the magic within.
