Choose your retailer
About the book
A computer programmer must rescue an imprisoned wizard to save the universe in this sequel to The Silent Tower from the New York Times–bestselling author.
There was a time when Joanna Sheraton knew nothing of the Void. She was an ordinary computer programmer, toiling in a cubicle in air-conditioned Southern California comfort, unaware that sinister forces had penetrated her universe. But from across the interdimensional divide, an evil mage had put in motion a scheme for eternal life, by transferring himself into a computer that feeds on Earth's life force. Called upon to help by the wizard Antryg, Joanna could do nothing more than delay. At the end of her first sojourn across the Void, Antryg was imprisoned and their task seemed hopeless.
Now she must depart from Earth once more, to rescue Antryg and save humanity. She is friendless, and the dark mage's forces hound her every step. But a good hacker is not easily deterred.

About the book
"A lush and bloody historical thriller" based on the infamous real-life inspiration for Countess Dracula, a Hungarian noblewoman turned serial killer.(Kirkus Reviews)
In sixteenth-century Hungary, Anna Darvulia has just begun working as a scullery maid for the young and glamorous Countess Elizabeth Báthory. When Elizabeth takes a liking to Anna, she's vaulted to the dream role of chambermaid, a far cry from the filthy servants' quarters below. She receives wages generous enough to provide for her family, and the Countess begins to groom Anna as her friend, confident and lover. It's not long before Anna falls completely under the Countess's spell—and the Countess t"akes full advantage. Isolated from her former friends, family, and fiancé, Anna realizes she's not a friend but a prisoner of the increasingly cruel Elizabeth. Then come the murders, and Anna knows it's only a matter of time before the Blood Countess turns on her, too.
"Popovic balances lush, romantic language with gruesome imagery in this tale of innocence lost. Readers will likely be inspired to do actual research into Lady Bathory's murderous misdeeds." —Booklist
"Popovic also touches on how a patriarchal society can drive women to extremes without letting the truly terrifying Bathory, or Anna, off the hook for their own actions." —Kirkus Reviews
"Hand to fans of dark historical fiction and powerful female characters." —School Library Journal

About the book
Ever wish Amy Poehler could be your hilarious, unfiltered, impossibly wise best friend? This is the next best thing.
Yes Please is not your typical celebrity memoir. It’s a mashup of personal stories, irreverent lists, awkward childhood photos, and laugh-out-loud essays that cover everything from showbiz grit to mom guilt to questionable wardrobe choices.
Whether she’s reflecting on her early comedy days or dishing out life advice like “treat your career like a bad boyfriend,” Amy brings her signature blend of honesty, absurdity, and big-hearted brilliance.
It’s smart. It’s weird. It’s full of haiku.
If you’ve ever wanted permission to be ambitious, funny, and a little messy all at once, consider this your official yes.
Actually, make that Yes Please.
