Isaac is the new kid in town. His mother, Vera, is in the hospital with a mysterious illness, and the only person left to care for Isaac is his distant grandfather. Friendless and often alone, Isaac loses himself in his collection of optical illusions, including a strange mirror box that he finds in his new house, left behind by the previous tenants. Designed for amputees, it creates the illusion of a second limb. Lonely Isaac wishes someone would reach out to him, and then someone does—a phantom limb within the mirror box! It signs to Isaac about a growing danger: someone who has murdered before and is out to get Vera next. The only way Isaac can solve the mystery and save his mother is with the help of the mirror box. But can he trust the phantom limb?

Threatened by invaders on all sides, the Roman Empire in the sixth century fought to maintain its borders. Leading its defense was the Byzantine general Belisarius, a man who earned the grudging respect of his enemies, and who rose to become the Emperor Justinian's greatest military leader.Loosely based on Procopius' History of the Justinian Wars and Secret History, this novel tells the general's story through the eyes of Eugenius, a eunuch and servant to the general's wife. It presents a compelling portrait of a man bound by a strict code of honor and unrelenting loyalty to an emperor who is intelligent but flawed, and whose decisions bring him to a tragic end. Eminent historical novelist and classicist Robert Graves presents a vivid account of a time in history both dissolute and violent, and demonstrates one again his mastery of this historical period.

It's Chad's first spring as a batboy, and the Pine City Porcupines are hot—until they come up against the league-leading Heron Lake Humdingers. Now Chad's got a whole lineup of problems: his favorite player, shortstop Mike Stammer, thinks he's jinxed; Dylan, the other batboy, doesn't even like baseball; there's a goofy new porcupine mascot on the field; plus, Chad has to fill in as batboy for the Herons. It's a good thing there's something in the cards—his baseball cards, that is—that can help Chad sort it all out.

平凡的我有着不平凡的人生，我就是這麼牛B

《世说新语伤逝》载：“王戎丧儿万子，山简往省之。王悲不自胜。简曰：‘孩抱中物，何至于此？’王曰：‘圣人忘情，最下不及情；情之所钟，正在我辈。’”每读这段，都确信自己亦难脱情之所钟范畴。流行歌曲里的“忘情水”，是不可能取来的，即便有，我也不会喝。在春光春色春水里，让我的情感涟漪至老不绝吧！写文章，需要用情，但最忌滥情。为文时，控制感情，少用形容词，就显得格外重要了。春水可以晃动荡漾，但不能泛滥，泛滥即成灾害。文字亦然。那么，就认认真真听天由命地生活，小小心心克制冷静地用情。春水无尽，长流到老。
