For twenty years Claire Randall has kept her secrets. But now she is returning with her grown daughter to the majesty of Scotland's mist-shrouded hills. 
 
Here Claire plans to reveal a truth as stunning as the events that gave it birth: about the mystery of an ancient circle of standing stones, about a love that transcends the boundaries of time, and about James Fraser, a warrior whose gallantry once drew the young Claire from the security of her century to the dangers of his. 
 
Now a legacy of blood and desire will test her beautiful daughter as Claire's spellbinding journey continues in the intrigue-ridden court of Charles Edward Stuart, in a race to thwart a doomed uprising, and in a desperate fight to save both the child and the man she loves.

For fifteen-year-old Wisty and her older brother Whit, life turns upside-down when they are hauled out of bed one night, separated from their parents, and thrown into a secret compound for no reason they can comprehend. The new government is clearly trying to suppress Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Being a Normal Teenager. 
 
Imprisoned together and condemned to death, Wisty and Whit begin exhibiting strange abilities and powers they never dreamed of. Maybe there is a reason they were singled out.

The Devil's Scribe

Deepak Chopra

THE RETURN OF MERLIN is a brilliantly realized narrative that begins in Arthurian times and boldly to our own twentieth-century dark age of war, pollution, predation, and hatred. Gripping from beginning to end, it is an inspiring saga with a deeper message that millions of receptive readers will take to their hearts: Just as we each hold within us the wisdom to heal the body, within our collectice psyche is the invincible power to create a new age of chivalry and honour, magic and glory.
