Becoming Bob
Satisfied with a Grade 8 education? Not fourteen-year-old Allister McRuer.

Allister’s one thread of hope for more education involves waiting for their one-room school to get a teacher with a high school diploma, and then persuading that teacher to help him study Grade 9. However, when fire spreads from Turtle Mountain towards the McRuers’ farm and the school, Allister must work quickly to prevent this hope from disappearing into ashes. In the midst of his fight for an education, Allister meets Sam Pollack in the fall of 1896, an itinerant worker from Ontario who comes to the farm. He asks Allister a pointed question: “What do you want to do with your life?” Will answering truthfully change anything? And if he ever gets his wish to attend high school in Cherry Creek, what name should he ask his classmates and teachers to call him by? Certainly not Allister!

Restless rake and lovesick aristocrat Lucian Augustus has fallen in with a wealthy, decadent coven of witches endowed with a new immortality. They are incited to leave, dismiss their appointed lives of wealth and privilege in Northern England and start a new life along the warm Mediterranean but end up in a bitter, century's old feud. The Dark Sisters, Benedikta and Kristabelle Ambrose refuse to let another witch, let alone several, reside within a thousand miles of Genoa. Autumn Anders, the group's oracle and seer, Viktoria Ambrose, from the same ancient family of immortals, Kristian Asher, Lucian's mysterious mentor and teacher and others keep him in the dark as to the true reasons of this twisted, darkly enchanted migration. Through his memoirs and through his eyes we see that happiness eludes him as he is torn between his desire to remain in this group or to leave it. It is on this quixotic search for meaning that he longs to find that which could save his soul and darkened heart.
