<\/a><\/div>\n

We’ve circled the globe during July and the Ultimate Blog Challenge<\/a>, highlighting books set in many countries (and eras).<\/p>\n

The Grassland Trilogy reaches back beyond written history, showing the courage of young people trying to Escape the Mask<\/a><\/i>, see Beneath the Mask<\/a><\/i>, and go Beyond the Mask<\/a><\/i>.<\/p>\n

Cate of the Lost Colony<\/a><\/i> traveled from the glittering court of Queen Elizabeth I to the desolate sand dunes of Roanoke in the New World, and Plain Kate<\/a><\/i>, driven from her home by superstition, must search for answers down the river, into the mists.<\/p>\n

Esty’s Gold<\/a><\/i> took us from famine-stricken Ireland to the Australian goldfields in the 1880s, while The Reformed Vampire Support Group<\/a><\/i> sticks together in today’s Sydney.<\/p>\n

Online gamers in China, India, Singapore and the US are fighting For the Win<\/a><\/i> and a fair chance at life.<\/p>\n

Annexed<\/a><\/i> and Briar Rose<\/a><\/i> brought us perspectives on the Holocaust – the Netherlands, Germany, Poland – so many bitter sorrows, so many untold tales.<\/p>\n

Modern-day Paris hides decades-old secrets in Die For Me<\/a><\/i>, while in Montreal, Mira just wants her own today in Pieces of Me<\/a><\/i>.<\/p>\n

And we’ve just begun the Rivers of Time trilogy, as Lia and Gabi go back to 14th century Tuscany in Waterfall<\/a><\/i>. <\/p>\n

Oh, the photo up there? That’s me aboard the wooden sailing ship Southern Swan<\/a> in Sydney Harbour in the 21st century. Ready for more great books in August?
