Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What would you do if you knew monsters really did creep in the shadows If people had powers or supernatural abilities too strange to believe. If you knew magic was real, would you attempt to tap into it, even though it was regarded with suspicion Try to control it knowing that it could get you hurt, or worse These are the same questions that Paxton McGregor asks himself everyday on his way to lessons. You would think classes would be a breeze for a sorcerer's apprentice like himself, but for some reason his magic skills just aren't clicking. Add a group of pretentious, popular teenagers, bullies with magic-hunting capabilities, and his strict father-who happens to be their teacher to the mix, and his social status isn't any better. Despite Paxton's lackluster skills, he wants to prove himself worthy of following in his parents' footsteps and becoming an agent for the secret order of The Mystic Knights.But as their small town, Misty Meadows, gears up for a summit that hasn't been held in decades, things somehow get even tougher. His father, who hasn't been an active agent for years, is called away on a mysterious mission. That wouldn't be so bad, except it means that he is sent to stay with his classmate Maddison Martinez, an 'empathic' girl out of his league. After hearing rumors about 'dead people walking' and a strange explosion at an old cemetery, both of their fathers fall out of contact. Paxton and Maddison form a reluctant truce to search for them. Can they learn to trust and rely on each other to put together the strange clues they discover on their journey and find their missing parents Perhaps even more important, can they learn to control their abilities and work together to prevent a hostile takeover that could change the world. Sharp, Shawn (illustrator).…

Robert (Bob) E. Lewis was born in Stouffville, Ontario, on February 10, 1929. A few days later he moved to the Lewis family farm in Altona, a small rural community four miles east of Stouffville. Eighty-five years later he is still living on the farm, lovingly called Misty Meadows. 'What a privilege it was for me to have my grandparents living with us. I would sit on my grandfather's knee, which was my favourite seat in the house, and hear his stories.' His favourite book was a book of poems, all about rabbits. Today, Bob can repeat them word for word. It was in this house that Bob and his wife raised their children and many foster children.
