Author: John Steinbeck

Here, in this short book illumined by the deep understanding and love of humanity that have made John Steinbeck one of the most beloved writes of our day is an old Mexican folk story. It is the story of the great pearl; how it was found and lost again. It is a simple story of simple people, recounted with the warmth and sincerity and unrivalled craftsmanship which Steinbeck brings to his writing. It is deeply moving and so beautifully presented that the reader's hope for mankind is rekindled. Of this story of Kino the fisherman, his wife Coyitito and Juana their baby, Mr. Steinbeck himself writes: "As with all re-told tales that are in people's hearts, there are only good and bad things and black and white things, and no in-between things anywhere."

KINGDOM OF AREGORYA

The Kingdom of Aregorya used to be a cozy, bright, beautiful and the only thing this place wants is the tranquility of their kingdom and the tranquility of the world of people. But because Amadeus was greedy the territorial dispute began because of Amadeus' envy of his brother who inherited him to be the leader of the kingdom. Amadeus was ordered to be expelled from the Kingdom of Aregory for killing the Aregatorian slaves in the Aregory. Amadeus formed his own group and conquered the whole kingdom of Aregory and he succeeded. The kingdom of Aregorya has changed; it is now encompassed by a dark and massive barrier. Amie Arellano is a princess from Aregorya who lost her memories after her parents, King Alfred and Queen Anastasya, died. Since Amie was the only Arellano left after killing all her blood relatives, Harith Beckett became Amie's protector so that Amadeus wouldn't kill her. Because Amadeus is selfish, devilish, and dissatisfied with what he has, Amadeus devised a plan to rule the entire globe of humans. Amie and Harith Beckett work together to bring peace and clarity to Aregorya's kingdom. disclaimer:I'm not a professional writer or novelist, but I'd want to share my work with you:):)This is my very first story, and I'd appreciate it if you could leave a message in a comment to let me know what you think of it.Please bear with me if some of my English isn't perfect:)this story is not yet done and I will keep uploading.AY LAB U ALL:)
