October's roundup of New in Paperback includes THE VENGEKEEP PROPHECIES by Brian Farrey, in which Jaxter Grimjinx is supposed to be a born thief but is a disgrace to the family name --- but then a suspiciously convenient prophecy emerges naming the Grimjinx clan as the soon-to-be heroes of Vengekeep; Peter Lerangis' THE COLOSSUS RISES: Seven Wonders, Book One, in which Jack McKinley is an ordinary kid with an extraordinary problem: in a few months, he's going to die, and the only way to save himself is to find and combine seven magic loculi; and THE RED BLAZER GIRLS: THE SECRET CELLAR by Michael D. Beil, in which Sophie finds a secret message in the antique fountain pen she bought for her father, and the girls are on a case.
