Book Description

Cassandra lives in a world where you fall in love at first sight—or not at all. Too bad she's blind, and being blind makes her not only immune to love, but also a criminal. She must now live alone or face being sentenced to a life of slavery. Though she's grown accustomed to her solitude, everything changes when Cassandra stumbles across a mysterious man in her domain. A royal soldier is hunting Nikon down, endangering her freedom as well. If the warriors discover her, she'll be bound by the law. Not willing to risk slavery or death, Cassandra abandons her familiar home and ventures into an unforgiving world with Nikon. Forced to trust a man she doesn't even know, Cassandra finds she’s drawn to him even though a relationship between them is impossible. And she can't afford any distractions. If they don't stay one step ahead of the warriors, Nikon will be imprisoned and she enslaved. Cassandra must use all the senses she has left if they're to remain free.

Book Description

Ever since Nikon entered Cassandra’s life, she’s gone from a peaceful existence to a world of danger and answers she never wanted—except about her parents possibly being alive. Though her parents caused her to go blind, Cassandra still wants to know what happened to them. But with warriors patrolling the streets and targeting members of the rebellion, both she and Nikon are reluctant to take on a perilous search for her family. When warriors are sent to oust the two of them, Nikon and Cassandra quickly find themselves fleeing for their lives. With the rebellion struggling, there’s few people to aid them unless they find a way to pull the rebels together. While on the run, Cassandra and Nikon must race to find her parents and help fight against the Reding and Vading’s iron rule. Should the warriors capture them, their lives and the lives of those they care about could be forfeit. Too bad the secrets still simmering between them could get in the way of everything they’re trying to accomplish. Finding Cassandra’s parents, aiding the rebellion, and the most impossible task of all—falling in love—now seem farther away than ever.

Finding her parents and discovering who Nikon really is transformed Cassandra’s life forever. On the run from the warriors who want to deliver her to the nefarious high priest, while dealing with the new truths she’s discovered, she will face challenges from known and unknown foes whose cruelty pushes beyond her breaking point. Despite the dangers, Cassandra is determined to discover and fix the wrongs that have plagued her country, friends, family, and Nikon. Yet, the deeper she delves the more she discovers that her own past may be the key to her country’s future. The blindness of her sight will be nothing to the blindness of the heart—but even that is nothing compared to what the rest of Eppla will suffer should she fail.

Book Description

"A comprehensive and entertaining historical and botanical review, providing an enjoyable and cognitive read.”—Nature The foods we eat have a deep and often surprising past. From almonds and apples to tea and rice, many foods that we consume today have histories that can be traced out of prehistoric Central Asia along the tracks of the Silk Road to kitchens in Europe, America, China, and elsewhere in East Asia. The exchange of goods, ideas, cultural practices, and genes along these ancient routes extends back five thousand years, and organized trade along the Silk Road dates to at least Han Dynasty China in the second century BC. Balancing a broad array of archaeological, botanical, and historical evidence, Fruit from the Sands presents the fascinating story of the origins and spread of agriculture across Inner Asia and into Europe and East Asia. Through the preserved remains of plants found in archaeological sites, Robert N. Spengler III identifies the regions where our most familiar crops were domesticated and follows their routes as people carried them around the world. With vivid examples, Fruit from the Sands explores how the foods we eat have shaped the course of human history and transformed cuisines all over the globe.
