“Life of Pi” author Yann Martel’s first book since 2011, “The High Mountains of Portugal” begins in Lisbon in 1904, when a young man named Tom\u00e1s discovers an old journal that takes him on a journey to find a mysterious artifact that could redefine history.<\/p>\n

Thirty-five years later, a Portuguese pathologist finds himself on the same quest, and fifty years later a Canadian senator finds himself following their footsteps as well. Martel’s beautiful story spans decades and mixes modern fable with heartwarming bedtime story.<\/p>\n

The highly anticipated sequel to No. 1 New York Times young-adult best seller “Red Queen,” “Glass Sword” follows Mare Barrow, a member of the lower class whose blood is red, unlike those of the elite silver-blooded class. However, she still manages to wield the same superhuman powers as those in the Silver class, making her\u00a0seem like an imposter \u2014 albeit a dangerous one \u2014 to the royal court.<\/p>\n

But she’s not an imposter, and Mare escapes the royal court, discovering along the way that she’s not the only one of her kind.<\/p>\n
