Synopsis A Walker Trilogy by : Daisyann Walker Palmer, PhD

A Walker Trilogy: Three to Read on Walker Mountain is a compilation of stories set in different times during the lives of the Walker families the 1900s, 1949, and 2013. They recount the Walkers' struggles to raise children, find happiness, and keep their faith. The Walker women prevailed over losses and challenges while their men served God and America, through inventions, music, and the sacrifices of military service. The stirring stories rekindle memories of harmonicas, poetry, and circle letters. Recently found decades-old recordings of family music have been preserved and recorded for current generations to enjoy. As for their letters, they were the electronic mail of nearly a century of Walker writings. The WWW (wild Walker women), with adventurous spirits, preceded the other www the World Wide Web. Every family has their stories and traditions; if you ever meet a WWW, she will bless you with a bit of music, a poem, some storytelling, tea on a back porch, a sumptuous meal, a lap quilt, or a horse ride. A Walker Trilogy ties together the strength of past generations of the Walker family with the promise of the newer generations of their clan. These intimate family stories offer an excellent opportunity to observe human strengths, perseverance, and the refusal to succumb to defeats throughout the decades.

Synopsis Dreamfire by : Kit Alloway

A young dream walker must save the world from certain destruction one dream at a time, in this riveting debut from Kit Alloway, an exciting new talent in young adult fiction. Unlike most 17-year-olds, Joshlyn Weaver has a sacred duty. She's the celebrated daughter of the dream walkers, a secret society whose members enter the Dream universe we all share and battle nightmares. If they fail, the emotional turmoil in the Dream could boil over and release nightmares into the World. Despite Josh's reputation as a dream walking prodigy, she's haunted by her mistakes. A lapse in judgment and the death of someone she loved have shaken her confidence. Now she's been assigned an apprentice, a boy whose steady gaze sees right through her, and she's almost as afraid of getting close to him as she is of getting him killed. But when strangers with impossible powers begin appearing in the Dream, it isn't just Will that Josh has to protect--it's the whole World.

But how can he deny a burning desire that threatens to consume him? As Hope’s past catches up with her in the worst way, Remy is determined to break through her defenses, earn her trust, and keep her safe in his arms—before it’s too late.
