The Colonies: Raccolto

By Jeanette Morris and Jamie Taylor

Marie Nigh was tired of being called "Scarecrow". Sure, she was skinny, but she was a hard worker. When her father suddenly dies, she must take charge of the family farm. The year was 1945. With most of the local men off to war, how is she going to harvest the crops alone? With the aid of a crazy, wild-haired gypsy that the locals call, "The Winter Witch of the Woods," help is on the way. Marie is forced by circumstances to face her fears. With Jaco's help, Marie explodes from her sheltered life like a rocket into a brand-new world filled with excitement and adventure. Jaco is a gargoyle from the Colony of Raccolto. He was wounded in the war and is as insecure as she is. As their friendship blossoms, they heal each other's wounds and provide the strength and confidence to take on both of their worlds! This is the 3rd book in the series called, "The Colonies"; following the 1st book called, "The Colonies: Gunderic" and the 2nd book called, "The Colonies: Architetti." There are 25 colonies in all, and we hope to take you on many more adventures to The Colonies.
