Holly Blair
Holly ist eine Tochter der Blairs - eine der mächtigsten Familien Sargonias. In ihrer Familie gibt es viele veraltete Traditionen und Bräuche, zum Beispiel, dass die Mitglieder dieser Familie sich nicht unter das normale Volk begeben dürfen. Holly schafft es schließlich, ihre Eltern zu überreden, auf eine öffentliche Schule gehen zu dürfen und baut sich dort ein Leben auf, in dem sie sich zuhause fühlt. Trotzdem ist ihr neues Leben alles andere als perfekt. So wie sämtliche Adlige Sargonias ist Holly eine Feuermagierin - eine Art von Magier, der von der ganzen Welt vorgeworfen wird, dunkle Magie auszuüben. Auch Holly wird auf ihrer neuen Schule täglich mit diesen Vorurteilen konfrontiert und muss sich die Frage stellen, ob sie unter der normalen Bevölkerung wirklich ein Zuhause finden kann. Gleichzeitig muss sie zuhause bei ihrer Familie ständig ihre Entscheidung rechtfertigen, auf eine öffentliche Schule zu gehen und ihren Eltern immer wieder ihre Loyalität beweisen. Währenddessen ist sich Hollys Schwester sicher, hinter dem Namen Blair läge ein dunkles Geheimnis und versucht Holly dazu zu bringen, sich gegen ihre Familie zu verschwören.
Modern HERstory
An inspiring and radical celebration of 70 women, girls, and nonbinary people who have changed—and are still changing—the world, from the Civil Rights Movement and Stonewall riots through Black Lives Matter and beyond. With a radical and inclusive approach to history, Modern HERstory profiles and celebrates seventy women and nonbinary champions of progressive social change in a bold, colorful, illustrated format for all ages. Despite making huge contributions to the liberation movements of the last century and today, all of these trailblazers come from backgrounds and communities that are traditionally overlooked and under-celebrated: not just women, but people of color, queer people, trans people, disabled people, young people, and people of faith. Authored by rising star activist Blair Imani, Modern HERstory tells the important stories of the leaders and movements that are changing the world right here and right now—and will inspire you to do the same.
An Overdose of Truth
Instead of starring in the NFL, injured All-American Bart “Bulldog” Dobbins is now forced to earn his living as a rookie investigative reporter. His first assignment is exposing the plight of disabled veterans from the mid-east war. Forced to dig for the truth, he uncovers deadly outcomes surrounding veteran patients being used as research guinea pigs for an HIV vaccine to combat AIDS. As veteran study patients turn up dead or infected with the HIV virus, Bart races to unravel the deadly thread between TRIFEM (the vaccine’s maker) and the FDA. Greed, murder, and vengeance are intertwined with passion and fierce loyalty. Bart must use all his tenacity against the enemies trying to silence him, and to avoid becoming the next victim of an overdose of truth.
