Welcome to Dog Beach (The Seagate Summers #1)评论

Here is a funny middle-grade mystery from a bright new fiction talent. Things in the New England town of Ashcrumb are getting weird. Or just weirder. Misty Gordon, whose antique-dealing parents drive a van that says "D.E.A.D." on the side (for "Deceased’s Estate and Antique Dealer"), is accustomed to weird. One day, when accompanying her father to the estate of a recently departed clairvoyant, Misty discovers a notebook and a pair of eyeglasses that enable her to see ghosts! And solve mysteries. With the help of her new powers and her best friend, Yoshi, Misty learns that her hometown was settled not by respectable colonists but by pirates! And the ghosts of the pirates are returning to reclaim a dangerous, powerful treasure they lost centuries ago. Who will find it first, Misty or the pirates?

With an introduction by Meg Rosoff William Golding's final novel, left in draft at his death, tells the story of a priestess of Apollo. Arieka is one of the last to prophesy at Delphi, in the shadowy years when the Romans were securing their grip on the tribes and cities of Greece. The plain, unloved daughter of a local grandee, she is rescued from the contempt and neglect of her family by her Delphic role. Her ambiguous attitude to the god and her belief in him seem to move in parallel with the decline of the god himself - but things are more complicated than they appear. "A remarkable work...A compelling storyteller as well as a clear-eyed philosopher of the dangerous puzzles of being human." (The Times). "A wonderful central character. The story stretches out as clean and dry and clear as the beach in Lord of the Flies."(Independent). "Feline, deadpan and at moments hilarious." (Observer).

在《订婚》一书中（龙人期日志＃6），凯特琳和迦勒发现，自己再次回到从前，这一次，是在1599年的伦敦。1599年的伦敦是一个蛮荒之地，充满了矛盾和悖论：虽然，一方面它是一个令人难以置信的、开明的、先进的时代，培养了像莎士比亚一样的剧作家，另一方面，它也十分野蛮和残酷，每天公开处决囚犯，还有各种酷刑，甚至将囚犯的头和挂在长钉上。这个时代也非常迷信，十分危险，缺乏卫生设施，而老鼠携带的腺鼠疫在街头蔓延。在这种环境下，凯特琳和迦勒着陆寻找她的父亲，寻找第三把钥匙，寻找可以拯救人类的神秘的盾。他们的任务带领着他们来到伦敦最令人惊叹的中世纪风格的建筑里，来到英国乡村最壮丽的城堡。他们接着回到了伦敦的心脏地带，亲眼见到了莎士比亚本人，看了他的现场戏剧。他们找到了一个小女孩，斯嘉丽，她有可能是他们女儿。与此同时，凯特琳对迦勒的爱加深了，最终他们走在一起——迦勒终于找到了完美的时间和地点，向她求婚。山姆和波利也跟着穿越过来，但他们发现自己被困在自己的征程中，他们的关系加深，他们无法控制对彼此的感情越来越深。但这一切并不顺利。凯尔也跟着回来了，还有他的邪恶搭档，谢尔盖，他们都有意摧毁凯特琳生活中一切美好的事物。这将是一场比赛，凯特琳被迫做出她生命中最困难的决定，为了救她生命中所有爱的人，挽救与迦勒的关系——而且尽量做到全身而退。《订婚》是龙人日志第六弹（之前是被爱，背叛，命中注定和欲望），但它也可作为一个独立的小说。《订婚》一书接近7万字。

老钱每天凌晨一点钟的时候离开岗亭，独自巡一会儿街，到另外的两个岗亭查一下岗，看看值班的人在不在，睡没睡觉。这个过程大约需要一个小时左右。街是步行街背后的一条巷子，曲曲弯弯的，有六百多米长，开着小饭店、小旅馆、理发室、美容院、复印店等等，这会儿全都安静了。整条巷子空无一人。路灯老远竖着一盏，发着惨淡的白光。路面又黑又脏，油腻腻滑溜溜的，几乎每过一个拐角就能碰到一堆垃圾。老钱高一脚低一脚，走得有点急，不像往常那么慢慢悠悠地晃。
