Book Description
Enter the world of The Storm Makers, where there's magic behind every forecast. What starts as an ordinary summer turns exciting and perilous for twins Ruby and Simon when strange occurrences begin happening on their farm -- sudden gusts of wind, rainstorms, and even tornado warnings -- that seem eerily timed to Simon's emotions. Then a stranger arrives and tells the twins that Simon is a Storm Maker -- part of a clandestine group of people entrusted with controlling and taming the weather -- and that he is in great danger. Soon Simon and Ruby must race against the clock as they try to master Simon's powers in time to stop a rogue Storm Maker's treacherous -- and potentially deadly -- plans. In this thrilling new adventure, loyalties can shift as quickly as the wind . . . and the ordinary can turn extraordinary in the blink of an eye.

Book Description
Discover the first in the epic trilogy by New York Times bestselling authors W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear (Sun Born, Morning River), which vividly recounts the devastating clash of cultures that occurs when Native Americans and Europeans make first contact. The pale, bearded newcomers who call themselves “Kristianos” fascinate Black Shell, an exiled Chickasaw trader, and not even the counsel of Pearl Hand, the beautiful, extraordinary woman who has consented to be his mate, can dissuade him from interacting with them. Only after a firsthand lesson in Kristiano brutality does Black Shell fully comprehend the dangers these invaders pose to his people’s way of life. While his first instinct is to run far from the then, Black Shell has been called to a greater destiny by the Spirit Being known as Horned Serpent. With Pearl Hand by his side, Black Shell must find a way to unite the disparate tribes and settlements of his native land and overcome the merciless armies of the man called Hernando de Soto. Using archeological data, ethnographic records, and historical journals, the authors bring to vivid life the beliefs, technologies, and daily experiences of lost American civilizations.

Book Description
Eleven-year-old Mason Davis has a big problem. Huge! His evil uncle is up to something - well . . . evil. Now he and his family have less than two weeks to find the stone of storms, strengthen their nephilim powers, and rescue their cousin from demons. Yikes! Connor can't even tie his own shoe and the only thing Reese is good at is burping his ABCs. Mason Davis and the Rise of the Storm Makers is a middle grade urban fantasy adventure with a touch of coming of age humor. It is a Percy Jackson meets Diary of a Wimpy Kid kind of book that celebrates all things boys - like how they smell so bad that no self respecting monster will come within ten feet of them. Who needs garlic when you've got BO? The boys are by no means angels, but they do have good hearts. Watch out! The littlest one even has a pretty lethal left hook. Thunderbirds, Windigos, and even Big Foot have no idea what is coming their way!
