Seven gripping stories of adventure, exploration and love introduce memorable historical and original characters. In the early 16th century, Lawrence of Pannonia joins a peasant rebellion led by the heroic George Dozsa. In 1942, Japanese-American Andy Yamanago evades internment to take part in the Battle of Midway. Mother and daughter and a downed American airman find refuge and love on a Danubian farm in 1944. In the 1960s, a young immigrant finds work and friendship in Philadelphia and, ultimately, the Silicon Valley. In the 1980s, a Stanford physicist finds gold in California, receives the Nobel Prize, and pursues his dream of organizing the Danubian Federation. In the latter part of the 20th century, young people seek the elixir of youth among the redwoods of northern California, and receive a radio message with possible extraterrestrial origins. In the middle of the dynamic 21st century, the heroic crew of a starship sends an ice-teroid toward Mars to help its terraforming. The characters in these seven stories promise many surprises for the adventurous reader.

Will Poppy has always been fascinated with writing - he thinks there’s something almost... magical about it. But when his mother passes away, Will finds himself stuck living with his awful aunt, unable to write a single word (despite the fact that two Muses will not leave him alone), and handed a mysterious package which includes an old picture of his grandparents and a piece of cloth with the words "The Griffin of Darkwood" on it. When his aunt decides to move both of them to a small village, Will is excited for a new adventure, and in a castle no less! But after a rude welcome to the town that includes stories about a curse, and an introduction to the servants of the castle who evidently mean to cause him harm, Will’s sense of dread about the whole village rises. What is the curse the villagers all claim has been on the castle for hundreds of years, and what does it have to do with the disappearance of a young girl forty years ago? More importantly, what’s The Griffin of Darkwood, and what does it have to do with Will and his family?
