Is it real? Is it a dream? Or could some place like this actually exist?

Step into the ideal world as the author dreamed it could be. The Secret of Misty Mountain offers hope for the future for anyone who wishes to accept it and its main character, Bob, is ready for that change. Bob is a simple, down to earth man that grew up in a small town in the heart of America. He never let go of his downhome values no matter where his lifetime travels took him. Bob is somehow intuitive to a special place out there, somewhere, that will give him peace in his life. This place also offers respect for all and you dont have to fight to get it. During his venture to find out where or when he will find this wonderful other world, Bob makes special friendships and touches lives around the world spreading his message of peace through respect. The mist at Misty Mountain offers a special feeling that Bob has finally found what he knew was out there. He finally enters a whole new world and lives out his life peacefully with his dog by his side.

Valley of the Misty Mountain is Book One of the Kodi Trilogy. When eight-year-old Kodi leaves his coastal village for a hike up Misty Mountain with his grandfather, he imagines they might be back before nightfall. But this is no ordinary journey, and certainly Gardon, his grandfather, is no ordinary person! In Valley of the Misty Mountain, the first book of this exciting trilogy, Kodi and Gardon join with Jalu -- another 'ancient wise one' and friend to Gardon -- and his grandson Kalu. Together, the four must use the Four Lessons and a little magic to escape from a marauding tribe led by the brutal Alcock. The Kodi Trilogy is a coming-of-age journey in which the title character encounters learning situations on his path to becoming 'the one.' Author CHRISTINE BUZZI Born in England with a very active imagination and thirst for adventure, Christine emigrated alone to Australia at the age of 20. There in the outback she met a special someone who later became her husband and father of her two children. Christine is now retired, living on Vancouver Island. Besides the KODI Trilogy, she has also written a novel based on her youthful adventures (think of it as Bridget Jones fumbles through the Australian outback) called Butterfly under a pseudonym.

This epic journey is her last hope to find her lost brother—the only family she has left. When Lola Carson’s father died, his last words spoke of a half-brother she’d never known about. And now, to claim her own inheritance and come to terms with her father’s secret life, she must find this mysterious man—whose last known whereabouts are somewhere west of the wild Rocky Mountains. After hiring family friends to accompany her on the trek, she sets out for a wilderness few white women have ever seen. She doesn’t expect the majestic peaks to captivate her so, nor the half-dead brave they find on one of the slopes. White Owl left his village and his broken heart behind when he set out for fresh a start. His newfound faith is the one anchor in his life. He’s desperate to learn more about the God he’s committed to follow and become an interpreter for the missionaries who led him to faith. But he barely starts his journey when a hunting accident nearly kills him. The woman who discovers him in the midst of his fevered delirium seems to be a gift from above. But the more White Owl learns about Lola’s companions and her dangerous quest, the more he realizes his own calling is clear—to take her safely to her brother. The question is, will he have to sacrifice more than his heart to accomplish that goal? From a USA Today bestselling author comes another epic journey through breathless landscapes and adventure so intense, lives will never be the same.

The Collected Works of Marie-Louise von Franz is a 28 volume Magnum Opus from one of the leading minds in Jungian Psychology. Volume 3 turns to the Maiden’s Quest within fairytales. The maiden/heroine navigates a complicated maze of inner and outer relationships as she builds a bridge to the unconscious. The heroine contends with the animus in many forms like a devouring and incestuous father, demonic groom, the beautiful prince, an androgenous mother, a cold dark tower, and through conflict with the evil stepmother. Dangers and pitfalls await her as the conscious feminine strives to make connections with the unconscious masculine. The maiden is the undeveloped feminine and the promised fruit of her struggle with the animus is the coniunctio. Volume 3 is a masterwork of cross-cultural scholarship, penetrating psychological insight, and a strikingly illuminating treatise. With her usual perspicacity and thoroughness, von Franz gathers countless fairytale motifs revealing a myriad of facets to the maiden’s quest.
