This book is an attempt to assist them from a young age to see the real magic that happen everyday in our world. It is a book to show them that life is magic and should always be respected. It also looks at interesting facts in the animal kingdom and the environment around us- things that are magic but a reality and things that will always be that way- Magic that they can cling to for the rest of their lives. The book is written for my daughter Simone- and I believe this is the first step to show her how magic our world really is. May this book assist you as an educational tool for your children and for yourself to know life and everything within it is magic and this will remain this way till the end of time if we preserve the world we live in.

When the Developers of the new Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game, Thila Online cancelled the project, someone it seems, forgot to turn off the servers, leaving the artificial intelligence of the game worlds more ingenious characters to finish the job themselves. Three years later, thanks to the endeavours of an I.T Department consisting of seven Gnomes in a dark shed round the back of an online pub with an online bank account, the world of Thila has evolved to become the flagship game of one of the largest entertainment software houses, boasting tens of thousands of players from all around the world. George Steel was intending to become one of those players just as soon as he'd entered his Dad's Credit Card details, which, following a brief battle with his conscience, he'd liberated from a drawer in the kitchen. One lightning strike later and he was well and truly logged in, the only problem now being that logging back out didn't seem to be an option as he found himself no longer in his bedroom, but alone in a dark forest somewhere within the world of Thila. Wolfgang meanwhile, is busy working his usual nightshift, deep within the Leafshade forest. It's been a quiet night all in all, but the cool evening breeze carries an unfamiliar scent. Most likely a lost Newbie, this shouldn't take long. With a cough to clear his throat and a quick shake down to loosen up and get into character, the creature raises himself to full height, head to the moon and lets forth a blood chilling howl. It's game on !

Surf’s up . . . and so are the stakes when veterinarian and amateur sleuth Jessica Popper escapes to the land of hula, hibiscus, and geckos for a professional conference. The last time she and boyfriend Nick Burby touched down on the island of Hawaii, Nick caused a volcanic eruption when he unexpectedly popped The Question to commitment-phobic Jess. But this trip proves just as dangerous when Jess befriends an ambitious young reporter whose body later washes up on the sand . . . and someone thinks Jess holds the clue to the killer’s motive. There’s no end of suspects among the exotic flora and fauna, from the victim’s journalistic rivals and a mystery boyfriend to an eccentric beachcomber and a governor’s aide with ties to a controversial biotech firm bringing progress to paradise. One of them is a killer with the chameleon-like ability to stay hidden—and if Jessica doesn’t uncover hula-dunnit in time, she’ll be saying aloha . . . permanently.
