About the book
He wakes with no name, no past—only a prophecy and a letter that could doom a kingdom.
In a realm where magic is outlawed and prophecies bring death, Zephyrus finds himself thrust into a gladiator’s arena with nothing but questions and blood on his hands. Named as a peacemaker in one breath and a harbinger of ruin in another, he battles not only mortal enemies but divine forces manipulating fate.
Each fight earns him freedom—but unearths dangerous truths. Within the palace, royalty plots rebellion. In the shadows, gods wage war. And Zephyrus is caught in the middle, his own identity the key to salvation or destruction.
The arena is only the beginning.
Can a man with no memory defy destiny—or is he already playing a role written by gods?

Red Sonja: Consumed
Fantasy · Travis' Picks · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
A battle-hardened warrior who fears nothing finds herself drawn back toward the one place and past she has never wanted to face. In Red Sonja: Consumed, rumors of buried horrors and a voice in her dreams pull Sonja home to confront what was left behind. This fantasy adventure blends brutal action, dark supernatural menace, and a heroine forced into reckoning as much as combat.

About the book
"Gail Simone writes like a storm gathering. Thunder is coming!" ―John Scalzi, New York Times bestselling author
"Fierce and fascinating. This is the story Red Sonja has always deserved. Unmissable." ––Felicia Day
Red Sonja, the iconic, fiery, she-devil with a sword, is reinvented for a new generation of readers in this action-packed epic fantasy by legendary comic book writer Gail Simone.
The warrior Red Sonja, the famous fiery She-Devil of Hyrkania, has never concerned herself with the consequences of her actions. She’s taken what she wanted, from treasure to drink to the companionship of bedfellows. She’s fought who deserved it (and sometimes those who didn’t). And she’s never looked back.
But when rumors start bubbling up from her homeland—rumors of unknown horrors emerging from the ground and pulling their unsuspecting victims to their deaths—and a strange voice begins whispering to her in her sleep, she realizes she may have to return to the country that abandoned her. And finally do the only thing that has ever scared her: confront her past.

About the book
Nothing says “European vacation” like chasing down a kleptomaniac octogenarian through ancient ruins… and straight into the arms of a fire-breathing dragon.
Sophea Long thought escorting her eccentric client, Mrs. P, would be the weirdest part of her trip. Then she’s kissed senseless by Rowan Dakar—a smoldering stranger who insists Sophea is part of a dragon prophecy. A very flammable prophecy.
Rowan didn’t earn the nickname “Dragon Breaker” for nothing. He’s on a mission to rid himself of dragonkin once and for all, not fall for a woman who literally ignites every time they kiss. But the more he resists fate, the hotter things burn.
There’s just one problem: prophecy doesn’t care what you want.
Is love powerful enough to rewrite destiny—or will they go down in flames?

About the book
From the bestselling author of The Ragged Edge of Night comes a powerful and poetic novel of survival and sacrifice on the American frontier.
Wyoming, 1876. For as long as they have lived on the frontier, the Bemis and Webber families have relied on each other. With no other settlers for miles, it is a matter of survival. But when Ernest Bemis finds his wife, Cora, in a compromising situation with their neighbor, he doesn’t think of survival. In one impulsive moment, a man is dead, Ernest is off to prison, and the women left behind are divided by rage and remorse.
Losing her husband to Cora’s indiscretion is another hardship for stoic Nettie Mae. But as a brutal Wyoming winter bears down, Cora and Nettie Mae have no choice but to come together as one family—to share the duties of working the land and raising their children. There’s Nettie Mae’s son, Clyde—no longer a boy, but not yet a man—who must navigate the road to adulthood without a father to guide him, and Cora’s daughter, Beulah, who is as wild and untamable as her prairie home.
Bound by the uncommon threads in their lives and the challenges that lie ahead, Cora and Nettie Mae begin to forge an unexpected sisterhood. But when a love blossoms between Clyde and Beulah, bonds are once again tested, and these two resilient women must finally decide whether they can learn to trust each other—or else risk losing everything they hold dear.

About the book
A woman delves into a centuries-old murder to find the truth behind her self-destructive behavior in a powerful novel about love, loss, and healing by the bestselling author of An Unfinished Story and The Stars Don’t Lie.
Unable to catch a break in life or love as she approaches thirty, Charli Thurman sees red lights at every crossroads. And given the Thurman family’s tumultuous history, she knows things will only get worse, unless she can break the cycle and figure out where—and when—it all went wrong.
Charli is skeptical when her best friend introduces her to a “soul reader” who specializes in generational trauma. But during family constellation therapy with the guru, Charli experiences an inexplicable memory of terrible violence. Whatever happened in the past, it created an imbalance that’s still in the Thurman blood.
When Charli’s research leads her to Winchester, England, she meets a charming pub owner named Noah, whose own family history is similarly twisted. As the mystery deepens around a damaged inheritance and a tragic death, Charli is resolved to find the truth—and create the fresh start she has been hoping for her whole life.
