Phoenix Rising

Ok, I know it's been a while but I found a whole bunch of great series just recently. For a long time I couldn't find any but here are some.
First of all, this great series called phoenix rising.
It's about a girl named Elissa who does not know anything about her father. There is a Phoenix prophecy that everyone seems to know about-except her. She is taken to the evil Khan. Elissa is on a quest to find her past and freedom.
The second book is called Elissa's Odyssey.
I don't know if there are any more books, cause that is as far as I've gotten.





The next series I want to bring up is called Ranger's Apprentice. It is about a young boy named Will. He can't be a knight due to the fact that he is to small and not a brawny as others. One day he is sneaking around and a man named Halt notices him and asks him to be his apprentice. Halt is a well known Ranger.
The first book is The Ruins of Gorlan
The second book is The Burning Bridge
The third book is The Icebound Land
The fourth book is Battle for Skandia
The fifth book is The Sorcerer of the North
There are seven books in all, but only those five have come out in the U.S.


Okay, I know that this series isn't exactly old, but I really like it. It's about a boy name Eragon, who finds a dragon egg. The series is called 'Inheritance'. I think it is going to be a quartet, but I'm not sure.

The first book is Eragon

The second book is Eldest

The third book is Brisingr




Okay, this is more of a children's series but it is about owls. Soren has been taken to St. Agoleus Acadamy for Orphaned Owls, but he is definitely NOT an orphan. There he meets Gylfie, an elf owl. As they plan their escape, they must avoid being moonblinked and plucked. Will they learn to fly in time?
There are 15 books, I think, and here are the first four.
The Capture
The Journey
The Rescue
The Seige
I wish you a good reading!!

Ok, so i know its been a while but I just found this one! the first book is called The Fire Within. Its about a college student/writer who's landlady makes clay dragons. When she makes David a dragon, it has a pencil and notepad in its paws, and suddenly he starts thinking of it constantly as it helps him write a story about a squirrel named Snigger! Could the clay dragons really be alive?

The Skittles Game

Ok, so I had this really fun party last night. I think the best part was when we played the skittles game. for the skittles game, you will need: a bowl of skittles, straws, dice, 3-4 players, and cups. heres how to play.
first, choose a player to go first. they roll the dice. if they get a 7 or a 3, they get to take the bowl. using the straws, try to get skittles to stick to one of the end of the straw by sucking on the other end. NO SPITTING! while that person is trying to get skittles from the bowl to their cup using the straw, the other players are passing the dice in a clockwise circle. when someone else rolls a 7 or a 3, they take the bowl away and they try to get the skittles. whoever has the most skittles at the end wins. game ends either when you run out of skittles or get bored.
You can also play the game with M&M's.
