Lost City

The fantasy kingdom of Lentari (introduced in Jeffrey Poole’s Bakkian Chronicles series) comes to life once again, in this acclaimed series. Lukas, a young dwarf, narrowly averts tragedy while attending a class by the master craftsman Maelnar, falling into the forge’s fire. Amazingly, he comes away from the near miss with only a mark on his back. The mark is not quite a burn. But it is disfiguring and embarrassing to the family, and it’s not fading away, so his father, Venk, takes young Lukas to consult the most respected wizard in the kingdom. They learn this mysterious mark is part of a Questor’s Mark, a sort of roadmap to an adventure that had long been the dream of many—to find the Lost City of Nar. Tales abound about the riches of Nar and the unsurpassed skills of that dwarven community, but no one has been there and no Narians seem to have survived. What happened? And how will Venk and the search party find the series of additional clues in order to complete the map? For completing the quest is the only way young Lukas will be free of the awful mark, and the only way his people will learn the answers to the age-old questions. Lost City has been newly edited and re-released! * * * Praise for Jeffrey Poole’s epic fantasy novels: “I loved this book. It had so much imagination to it. Great for young and old.” - D.

Valuable memorabilia and movie props—including a movie weapon Michael Biehn owns—are disappearing, and Zack and the corgis are tasked with finding and recovering the priceless items. Meanwhile, Zack and Jillian are settling into their new over-the-top home, she with her extensive library and he with a game room and home theater that’s the dream of every guy on the planet. But unpacking everything must wait because comic-con is only in town for the weekend and these crooks are a slippery bunch. As the police, along with Zack, Sherlock, and Watson investigate the thefts, it turns out that quite a few pieces of memorabilia are missing, from events all around the country, and they may be dealing with an international ring of masterminds. How are the team going to track down everything? They must act quickly to catch the thieves before they leave Pomme Valley, or the good stuff will disappear forever.
