  SYNOPSIS
A house dreams of a family to love and shelter. A family longs for a house all their own. And so is born the dream - house ... a gentle book of life's natural cycles. A dream-house watches his occupants and himself grow up and get older, and in the process, learns that it isn't wood, or walls, or bricks that make a house a home, but family, friends, and most importantly, love.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
'Fu-Ding Cheng is an artist, architect, and independent filmmaker, whose name means "return to peace" in Chinese. The inspiration for Dream-House came from Mr. Cheng’s short film Spirit of the Dream-House, which was chosen by the Asian-American International Film Festival for their "Best of the Decade" celebration.

A Sequel to Six of Crows

Crooked Kingdom: the highly anticipated sequel to Leigh Bardugo's thrilling #1 New York Times-bestselling Six of Crows. Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn't think they'd survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they're right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and badly weakened, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz's cunning and test the team's fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city's dark and twisting streets—a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of the Grisha world.

Captain Pausert thought he had finally made good with his battered starship, successfully selling off odd-ball cargoes no one else could sell. And then he made the mistake of freeing three slave children from their masters (who were suspiciously eager to pan with them). No good deed goes unpunished, and in fact the harmless-looking little girls were three of the notorious Witches of Karres. A rollicking novel from the master of space adventure.

A New Sequel to The Witches of Karres. Two Top Writers Continue the Bewitching Adventures Begun in One of Science Fiction's Most Beloved Novels.

As Captain Pausert had often had occasion to observe, life just wasn't fair! Hadn't he (with the help of the notorious witches of Karres, of course) outmaneuvered the deadliest of space pirates and eliminated the threat of the Worm World (as told in The Witches of Karres), after which, at the least, he deserved some time off. No such luck, though, as the Empress herself sent him on a secret mission to stop the nanite plague, but an enemy had somehow convinced the Imperial Fleet that he was actually a wanted criminal, so after a battle leaving his ship in urgent need of repairs all three of them joined an interstellar traveling circus (don't ask!) in order to save the galaxy once again (as told in The Wizard of Karres).

      Time for a vacation? Don't be ridiculous--there's a new urgent mission that has Captain Pausert's name on it! This new novel finds the long-suffering Captain and the two young Karres witches--Goth, who vows she will marry him when she grows up, and her younger sister The Leewit--being sent off to investigate mysterious and ominous events in the notorious Chaladoor region of space. Goth soon becomes aware that unknown but surely inimical forces are tracking them, and in order to foil them she takes a desperate route to travel back in time and meet Pausert as a young boy. Meanwhile, the Captain and the Leewit find themselves in the middle of their own desperate situation in the Chaladoor.

      Whoever it was who said that a change was as good as a vacation never met any of the Witches of Karres--nor experienced their amazing talent for getting Captain Pausert into trouble.
