The first three books in Tony Lewis's Skullenia series, now available in one volume! Wherewolf: After Half-vampire Ollie inherits his uncle's detective agency in the undead town of Skullenia, Count Jocular commissions his team to help resolve a series of unexplained disappearances. With the help of his motley crew and some quite frankly ridiculous characters, he attempts to get to the bottom of the perplexing mystery. Cup and Sorcery: The Fibulan Museum has been burgled and our intrepid detectives are appointed to solve the mystery. During their investigation, they find themselves undertaking a quest of literally epic proportions, while hoping that they can stave off disaster and avoid seeing Mrs. Ladle's legs. Wuthering Frights: Grendle the Shopkeeper has disappeared. Meanwhile, a young couple has discovered a cadaver while taking a moonlit stroll through the cemetery. What links the strange events? Is anything else going to happen? Someone needs to find out what's going on, and in Skullenia that can only mean one thing: Ollie and the boys have another puzzle to solve.

Books 4-6 in Tony Lewis's Skullenia series, now available in one volume! The Quest for the Bone Idol: Ollie and the boys need a break from the detective agency, so when Stitches wins a competition at The Bolt and Jugular, it seems that fate may be finally smiling down on them. But But what should have been a relaxing cruise turns into a voyage of intrigue and mayhem on the high seas, when our intrepid explorers find themselves entangled in yet another mystery involving a strange relic, a dangerous foe, and a rather bawdy crew of pirates with interesting beards. A Witch in Time: Despite it being slightly more fun than a visit to a 12th century dentist, Stitches doesn't want to go Mrs. Ladle's game night. Tonight, she has promised them something special: a game that hasn't been played for a very long time. One that's bound to make the evening fly by and take them to an adventure packed full of derring-do and never-before chronicled acts of heroism and bravery. Intensive Scare: A psychic message, a portly medium, missing residents and a strange glow can only mean one thing: something is happening in Skullenia, and it's down to Ollie and the gang to sort it out. With the help of Deirdre Clownpuncher, the boys try to find out where everyone's gone before they disappear forever. Our heroes must employ all of their guts and guile to follow the clues which, seeing as they don't actually have any guts and guile, means they'll be relying on other people as usual.

Slugg: A Boy's Life in the Age of Mass Incarceration is a blueprint for survival and a demonstration of the power of love, sacrifice, and service. The son of a Kingpin and the prince of a close-knit crime family, Tony Lewis Jr.'s life took a dramatic turn after his father's arrest in 1989. Washington D.C. stood as the murder capital of the country and Lewis was cast into the heart of the struggle, from a life of stability and riches to one of chaos and poverty. How does one make it in America, battling the breakdown of families, the plague of premature death and the hopelessness of being reviled, isolated, and forgotten? Tony Lewis' astonishing journey answers these questions and offers, for the first time, a close look at the familial residue of America's historic program of mass incarceration.

This is the first book of a teen fantasy book series that nurtures the bloom of MAGIC in the soil of SCIENCE. The magic in this world is different from the "traditional" concept, because it's backed up by realistic, physical scientific theories. As the story goes on, you'll enjoy the unique charm of science and magic merging into each other - something that has rarely been attempted before. The transition from magic to science will be bit by bit, so the early books do read like a "mainstream" magic fantasy.Soarame has a pair of special eyes. He can see magic elements in this world, which are supposed to be invisible. This enviable gift of his could reveal the truth of the world, but it also puts him in danger.Many animals in this world possess magic power, so they are called "magimals" - dragons as examples. Soarame fortunately got a baby magimal as his best friend, but they got into troubles together - troubles that were a lot bigger than dragons.Could they survive?

A cautionary tale about the life of former kingpin Azie Faison, who has become the fabric of street legend Faison was a ninth grade dropout who earned more than $100,000 a week selling cocaine in Harlem, New York, during the peak of America's "War on Drugs" between 1983 and 1990. Faison, along with two partners, was an urban prince with cars, jewels, and people -- in awe of this million-dollar phenomenon -- at his feet. His legacy has been praised by hip-hop's top names in their lyrics, and his life was the basis for the urban cult classic film Paid in Full starring Mekhi Phifer, Wood Harris, and rapper Cam'ron and produced by Jay-Z's Roc-A-Fella Films. In Game Over, Azie brings forth a powerful memoir of New York's perilous drug underworld and music industry, with an intellect and wisdom to empower and challenge the street culture he knows so very well.
