Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - When Charles Mandrake's condition turns critical on the Skelderheim steppe, Anna and Todd do the only thing they can. They bring him home. They return to East Bay with more than they left with. A Veil guard named Lenne, gravely wounded and running out of time. A five-year-old girl named Azaya who came off the Skelderheim docks with a bread board, a set of lock picks, and no intention of leaving the woman who fell protecting her. And questions about Myles Pibbles that have been waiting in the walls of the mansion on the hill since before any of them arrived. The answers surface the way Myles did everything. Quietly, and exactly where he intended them to be found. A locked room off the main hall holds a library built from two worlds. A private freight system runs beneath the entire city of Skelderheim. A radio in Finch's shop comes to life on a frequency nobody has touched in years. One by one, the people who have always been closest to them turn out to have always been exactly where they were meant to be. The third book in the Charles Mandrake arc is not about a world in crisis. It is about what gets built in the quiet, who it gets built for, and what happens when the people meant to inherit it finally start opening the right doors.It is also, unexpectedly, about a five-year-old who figures most of it out first. …

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - On a late July day, Charles Mandrake in East Bay, Maine, a small coastal town where the days run on tides, weather, and routine. An old observatory sits on the property that everyone calls 'the Pibbles place.' It has been locked up for decades. Most people treat it like a landmark. Charles treats it like a problem.Inside, the place is still wired for work. There are consoles, binders, a shortwave radio annex, and a diesel generator that shouldn't be there if the observatory was only meant for stargazing. Then Charles finds the notes. Measurements. Warnings. A sequence of numbers written like a combination.With Anna Ko and Todd Baskerville, Charles begins restoring the observatory, but the work doesn't behave like a normal repair job. The more they fix, the more the system seems like a procedure waiting to be followed. Lights flicker at the same moments. The telescope mount rotates back to north on its own. A low hum settles into the floor when the generator takes load. And one small pilot lamp keeps glowing even when nothing else is powered.East Bay has plenty of opinions about the observatory, and most of them boil down to: leave it alone. Charles doesn't. The details don't add up. The equipment feels overbuilt. The notes feel too careful. And there are iron rings in the floor that have nothing to do with seeing stars.Myles Pibbles disappeared in 1969, and the town decided it was an accident. Charles isn't so sure. Not after what the logs suggest, and not after the observatory starts responding like it recognizes what they're doing.Whatever Myles built, it was never meant to look into the heavens.It was meant to look somewhere else.…
