Mary Elizabeth Chapman boards the Speedwell in 1620 as a Separatist seeking a better life in the New World. William Lytton embarks on the Mayflower as a carpenter looking for opportunities to succeed - and he may have found one when a man from the Virginia Company offers William a hefty sum to keep a stealth eye on company interests in the new colony. The season is far too late for good sailing and storms rage, but reaching land is no better as food is scarce and the people are weak.

Intra Muros ('Between the Walls'), or My Dream of Heaven, was written in 1898. It was a vision given to the author during a severe illness. On reflection, she came to understand the short book as a series of basic truths about heaven, offering readers both confidence that God had prepared a place for them and that awaiting them there was a wonderful reunion with loved ones who had gone before.

Built on the backs of those who fell before it, Julius Caesar's imperial dynasty is only as strong as the next person who seeks to control it. In the Roman Empire, no one is safe from the sting of betrayal: man, woman - or child. As a boy Nero's royal heritage becomes a threat to his very life, first when the mad emperor Caligula tries to drown him, then when his great-aunt attempts to secure her own son's inheritance. Faced with shocking acts of treachery, young Nero is dealt a harsh lesson: It is better to be cruel than dead.

Resumen del Editor
The land of Asteria exists far beyond the stars. There, wishes hold immense power, and the only limit is your imagination.
The kingdom is ruled by King Sidus and his daughter, Princess Carina. Carina has a special gift that lets her make dreams come true. Her cousin Stella is immensely jealous of her power and wants to rule Asteria herself. She would do anything to ruin Carina’s plans…
Meanwhile, on Earth, a magnificent ship is ready to set sail on its maiden voyage. The Titanic is called the “Ship of Dreams,” and six-year-old William Parker is excited about the journey ahead.
When William talks to one of the ship’s passengers, he learns the truth about wishes. For every pure wish someone holds in their heart, another star appears in the sky.
When William makes a pure wish for the fantastic voyage to never end, Carina hears it from all the way beyond the stars. She resolves to grant it, but the evil Stella schemes to stop the Titanic by any means necessary.
Historical fact blends with fantasy to create this incredible adventure about the power of pure wishes and big imaginations.
William's Wish is a children's short story to enjoyed at bedtime cuddled up next to family or even alone while on the bus journey to school.

Often described as an alchemical allegory, John Crowley instead decided this is "the first science fiction novel". After all, "it's fiction; it's about the possibilities of a science; and it's a novel". No matter what else it might be, it's definitely one of the great outlandish stories in Western literature.

Intra Muros ('Between the Walls'), or My Dream of Heaven, was written in 1898. It was a vision given to the author during a severe illness. On reflection, she came to understand the short book as a series of basic truths about heaven, offering readers both confidence that God had prepared a place for them and that awaiting them there was a wonderful reunion with loved ones who had gone before.
