The Elf on the Shelf


Book Description

The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition is an activity the entire family will enjoy. Based on the tradition Carol Aebersold began with her family in the 1970s, this cleverly rhymed children's book explains that Santa knows who is naughty and/or nice because he sends a scout elf to every home. During the holiday season, the elf watches children by day and reports to Santa each night. When children awake, the elf has returned from the North Pole and can be found hiding in a different location. This activity allows The Elf on the Shelf to become a delightful hide-and-seek game.

The Elf Queen of Shannara


Book Description

“Find the Elves and return them to the world of Men!” the shade of the Druid Allanon had ordered Wren. It was clearly an impossible task. The Elves had been gone from the Westland for more than a hundred years. There was not even a trace of their former city of Arborlon left to mark their passing. No one in the Esterland knew of them -- except, finally, the Addershag. The blind old woman had given instructions to find a place on the coast of the Blue Divide, build a fire, and keep it burning for three days. “One will come for you." Tiger Ty, the Wing Rider, had come on his giant Roc to carry Wren and her friend Garth to the only clear landing site on the island of Morrowindl, where, he said, the Elves might still exist, somewhere in the demon-haunted jungle. Now she stood within that jungle, remembering the warning of the Addershag: “Beward, Elf-girl. I see danger ahead for you . . . and evil beyond imagining." It had proved all too true. Wren stood with her single weapon of magic, listening as demons evil beyond all imagining gathered for attack. How long could she resist? And if, by some miracle, she reached the Elves and could convince them to return, how could they possibly retrace her perilous path to reach the one safe place on the coast? BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Terry Brooks's The Measure of the Magic.

The Elf Sojourn - Book Eight of the Magi Charter


Book Description

It has been a year since the incident that stranded the Continental ship Eureka outside the galaxy. The unprecedented use of a limitless portal technology has provoked the galactic Imperial powers to go on the defensive, preparing for war. The Elves and Santa are largely to blame for the state of galactic politics; despite their intentions being for the greater good, things have only grown worse... After failing the Mission, Tiberius is resolved to keep his people together, determined not to forsake his commitment to the masses. Tiberius was told he would be the last Santa, that he must now separate himself from the Elves. Yet Tiberius refuses to listen to anyone, sure that he will find a solution to keep the Mission going. Time is running out, his control is slipping; the distrust amongst the Elves is reaching a flash point. Forced to evacuate their home and scattered to the stars, the Disciplines struggle to coordinate their Elves and keep their organizations running. The galaxy's people, great and small, need help and guidance. For some Elves that means having to rely on themselves and not their Disciplines. All must find innovative ways to keep the galaxy from disintegrating into chaos. The fabled Key Stones are the Elves' last hope to save the Mission and return to their home. But they are not the only ones on the hunt for the mysterious objects. Returning from the stranded Eureka, the Elfin ship Vega resumes the search for the Key Stones while being pursued by the sinister Shinsei; a Rune Master who has been plotting in the shadows and is revealed to be the mastermind behind Emiko and the rival of Merlin. Kyanite Astro, a young elf struggling with basic Rune control and his own identity, will be forced into a face-off with Shinsei that will ultimately determine the fate of the Elves and the galaxy. About the Magi Charter series: For over two thousand years the legend of Santa Claus has endured. His is a Mission of peace as outlined in the Magi Charter, given to the first Santa by the Child. From humble beginnings, following that First Christmas, the Santa lineage has been passed down through the ages. This epic adventure tells the story of those Santas from the founding of the North Pole and the origin of the ancient elves, to our modern times where the world's problems affect even those in the secluded complex of the North, and concluding in the distant future which finds Santa and the elves committed to their mission on a galactic scale where Christmas traditions are barely recognizable. In every era, those committed to the Mission must find a way to deliver that which is needed most to those most deserving.
