Jacob Grimm Books Novels & Stories

"Please, I want the book. One day I will understand." Brandt smiled and replied with humor, "If you ever make sense of it, let me know. You can then argue with my father on the merits of Christianity. He believes in the Goddess and loves nothing better than a good philosophical debate." He turned and picked up another book. It had a picture of a wolf with a snowy mountain background. "This is Jack London's Call of the Wild and it's the one we'll read first. Let's finish the cake and then get ready for our evening company."

After that, he saw to the care of his mother until her passing in the 1920s. After that, the book became a meticulous record of Jacob Cypress's campaign to purge the world of all supernatural beings. But never once in there did it explain why he held such a vendetta against creatures that he didn't have a connection to. The origins of Jacob's non-human half were still shrouded in mystery. When Julianne and I both ran out of questions, we shut the book and locked it, putting the key back and placing the book on the shelf. My stomach growled and I looked at the clock.

Letting their closeness comfort me, the way it always has. It’s not too long before Issac comes back with three books handing each of us a book. I look over the maroon colored book that looks to be centuries old and place my fingers over the title. ‘The Golden Goddess.’ My eyes look back up to Issac and he smiles. “We don’t have a lot on the golden wolf here. Maybe the king can help us get a few more books to research. Or we can ask him what he knows.” He says and I shake my head, “I don’t want to know what he knows. If the books are out there, I’ll find them myself.” Issac looks disappointed but nods and looks back at the book.

My heart beats fast, and I feel a wetness between my legs that I can’t ignore. One gray afternoon, it was pouring rain outside. The library was dead empty. No one to bother me. I locked the front door early and turned the sign to closed. My hands were sweaty as I picked out my four favorite books from the back shelf. There was the pirate story with Captain Thorne, a tough guy who sails the seas and takes what he wants. Then the vampire book with Lord Draven, all dark and mysterious, with eyes that pull you in. Next, the cowboy tale with Buck, rough and ready from the wild west. And finally, the barbarian adventure with Garrick, a big brute who fights with his hands and conquers everything. E

I punched the bridge of my nose and rubbed my temples, telling the stress that had chained me to release me from it's shackles. Jade's turn and she told a story that had already been written by some author known as Godwin Hosanna Aga. The book was named in the deep and it was about some girl named Hephzibah and it was pretty interesting and scary the way my baby sister had told it with a touch light under her chin, illuminating her face and weird canines. "And that is, in the deep!" Jade screamed, stomping her feet on the floor and howling like a wolf.

Another and the final reason why we haven't started the search yet is because Alex and Mason want to investigate the wolf killings in the other part of the forest even though it isn't our territory and even though none of ours has been killed. But it is so very close to ignore. As Thwy are doing that, I am learning with the oracle about being a witch. He has these two big volumes of spell books that he told me are called grimoires. One has a big black cover that is shining like it was made of a very rare snake skin and on top of it written with letters that look like fire are a big words "THE GRIMOIRE OF THE HOUSE OF CASPER". "Who's Casper?" I ask the oracle as I flip its pages.

But instead of old stories from my grandmother’s life, the pages were scrawled with strange symbols and sketches—shorthand in her handwriting explaining the purpose of different runes and sigils. Flipping through the pages, there were sketches of wolves, and the last page that she’d written in had a detailed rendition of a nightmarish wolf-beast that made my blood run cold at the sight of it, it’s eyes smudged over with charcoal in the shape of a protective rune. My heart raced when I realized what I was holding. This was no ordinary journal, it was a spell book.

By the time Momma passed I was married with a little one on the way, so my chance for college had passed, too. But I never stopped reading. Got me a nice little library out back, filled with all sorts of books crammed on bookshelves made by my own two hands. Books like Tom Sawyer, Edgar Allen Poe stories, Huck Finn and The King in Yellow, (that last one I don’t read much cause it always gives me strange dreams), some old mysteries, a clutch of Lovecraft’s books (they hurt my head, too, so I don’t read them much neither), my Hardy Boys books from growing up, and a whole bunch of newer ones by Stephen King and Dean Koontz. Got some heavy thinking books, too. The family King James, The Book of

“You didn’t read all of these books?” “I read books one through five. That fifth book was when all the fighting happened between them. I don’t know why but I just kept buying the other books when they came out.” She shrugged. “I just. . .I couldn’t stop. I had to buy them.” Maddox raised his eyebrows. “Even though you didn’t want to read them?” “Exactly. It was the oddest thing.” “These are spelled.” He picked them up and turned to the author again. “This Grace Moon must be a witch.”
