Located on a river pathway in a mysterious part of Cambridge, the Crystal Cottage is guarded by mythical beings. Unfortunately, there are those who seek to harm this haven of light. Learning of Ryder - a Shadow Sorcerer with hypnotic powers - Amelina discovers that her own magic is now threatened, and that the Curse of Time might be unleashed again.

NOTE: this book contains mention of self-harm, mental health issues and alludes to the potential dangers of sexual attraction, which may trigger younger/sensitive readers. Review Quote: 'Amelina is a teen with magical gifts. And, believe me, she needs them. Because she has lots of challenges: a weird family, odd and troubled friends (one of them trapped in a mirror), a dangerous creepy sorcerer guy who keeps hanging around hypnotizing people. Did I mention the old lady in the cottage-between-worlds with her hoards of magic crystals? Or the figures from Greek mythology and Arthurian lore? Or the giant mechanical grasshopper with his roller coaster of horror? At times it felt like I was reading Stephen King. At other times, Alice in Wonderland. The novel is well-written, with twists and turns galore. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy YA fantasy.' Jack Massa, Fantasy author.

Spanning more than 100,000 verses, the Mahabharata is undoubtedly one of the largest epics in the world. On the surface, the story of the Kuru Dynasty, and their struggles for power, the epic deals with far reaching themes of love, friendship, hatred, and every emotion in between. The great war at its centre ends with the lines between right and wrong and the victors and vanquished all blurring together. This book of Tales is the author’s interpretation of some of the events of the epic, and deals with mostly imaginary scenarios which are not touched upon in the epic. Despite its vastness and scope, the epic glosses over several areas which have formed a part of the imaginary landscape of several authors and this book is the result of the imagination of one such author. This collection includes the short story, “The Forgotten Son,” which had won Honourable Mention in the Writers of the Future Contest.
