Welcome to Eelong, the 5th terrotory of Halla! Here you find tall rainforests, tree-cities, and intelligent cats. Serving as the setting of the book Black Water by DJ MacHale, you can follow Bobby Pendragon everywhere on this great territiry on his quest. Here is a review of the book:
When Bobby Pendragon gets a message from his fellow traveler Gunny, he blasts through time and space to Eelong, a jungle territory that is ruled by giant cats called “klees”. When the food stores begin to run low and disease spreads through the crops Bobby must fins a way to stop the repealing of edict 23: the law that prohibits eating people.
Meanwhile, on 2nd Earth, Bobby’s friends Mark and Courtney find a contaminated klee at the entrance to the flume. Sampling the poison, they take it to the territory of Cloral. There Mark and Courtney learn that it is the same plague as the one that swept Cloral in book 2 (The Lost City of Farr). Should the two mix territories by bringing the antidote to Eelong, breaking the rule of mixing territories? Or should they leave it alone and give St. Dane a second victory?
With 5 stars, the 5th book in the Pendragon series begins with a shock, follows with page-turning thrills and ends with a bang. More impossible to put don than its predecessors, Black Water is a good book for everyone to read. Have a great time reading this book!

Look, Up In The Sky!
Most superhero books are from the hero's perspective. They tell about how evil the villain is and how the great hero stopped it. This book is different. It gives a book from the villain's perspective. Here is the review.
Before “the stars fell” in the city of Bouring, Kyle Camden was the most popular kid in school. He pranked everyone in every way imaginable. Then in came “Mighty Mike”, an alien superhero who took his place.
When Kyle is bathed in the same plasmas as Mike was created by, he decides to get rid of the annoying superhero. Using a bunch of home-made gadgets, will Kyle be able to show the world what Mike really is?
Coming out in October 2010, this book gives the story from the villain’s point of view. He is just a normal kid trying to get even, not some evil maniac who wants to destroy the town. Have a blast reading this book!

3 years ago Alannah Malarra’s parents disappeared on a business trip. No one has seen them since then. But they weren’t on a normal business trip. They were psychic ghost hunters.
Today Alannah is hunting ghosts by night and taking their treasure to fund the search for her parents. Along with her cat burglar friend Wortley Flint, she has banished many a ghost in Britain.
Flhi Swift was never a favorite on the ANGEL (Attack ready Network of Global Evanescent Law-enforcers) police squadron. But when she is nearly fired she is given one last chance: check on an emergency alarm in Britain, home of the locked Door of Souls, prison of ghouls, gargoyles, and the most powerful fugitive known to ANGEL.

Who Are You?
"Who are you when you're alone? When When no one is watching? What's left then?" That is a question Katy, aka "Kid" must answer in her futuristic high school.
Unidentified
By: Rae Mariz
In the future the government will lose all funding for education. Schools will be forced to turn to corporations for funding. Technology will begin to replace teachers.
At least, that is history to Kid. She is a normal student in the Game: a mall-turned-school with invention beyond your very belief. Her school has it all: an amusement park, a studio, a movie theater (where they play only documentaries), an arcade, a mechanics shop, and a Sweat Shop. The most talented are chosen to promote products. School is normal.
That is, until a dummy falls into the center of the Game with a note saying “UNIDENTIFIED, CHOOSE YOUR SUICIDE”. When most people shrugs it off as a bad advertisement, Kid researches more and finds out that the Unidentified is a group of people against the corporate sponsors and the Game itself. When Kid learns that the Unidentified are sending out a computer virus into the Game she tries to prevent it. But the question is “How?”
Coming out in October, this book gives a taste of high school drama as well as everything students wish school was. With 5-stars, this book is for teens everywhere.
