Witch & Wizard (James Patterson with Gabrielle Charbonnet)

Witch & Wizard

James Patterson with Gabrielle Charbonnet

Blurb: Your books, music and art - banned by the new order.

You are holding an urgent and vital narrative that reveals the forbidden truth about these perilous times.

This is the astonishing testimonial of Whit and Wisty Allgood, a brother and sister who were torn from their family in the middle of the night, slammed into prison, and accused of being a witch and wizard.

They are not alone in their terrifying predicament. Thousands of young people have been kidnapped; some have been accused; many others remain missing. Their fate is unknown, and the worst is feared - for the ruling regime will stop at nothing to suppress life and liberty, music and books, art and magic... and the pursuit of being a normal teenager.

Most copies of this story have already been seized, shredded, or burned. Read this rare surviving edition and pass it along with care - before it's too late.

Middle School - The Worst Years of My Life (James Patterson and Chris Tebbetts)

Middle School - The Worst Years of My Life

James Patterson and Chris Tebbetts

Blurb: This is the totally insane story of how I, Rafe Khatchadorian,

-fought and overcame a diabolical teacher called Dragon Lady,

-sold my soul to the school bully, a dollar at a time,

-wrestled with a real live bear; repeatedly,

-fell kind of in 'like' with the most popular girl in school,

-went into the soda business and went bust,

-and accidentally-on-purpose hurt all the people I care about.

The worst days of my life were good sometimes.

Bad sometimes.

But mostly they were hilarious.

See for yourself.
