Lore Alemeyu bargains with a Fae lord to enter a deadly cursed library, seeking the magic the Fae crave.
Lore of the Wilds
Romantasy
Our take
Lore Alemeyu bargains with a Fae lord to enter a deadly cursed library, seeking the magic the Fae crave.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Trapped in a forested prison by ruthless Fae, twenty-one-year-old Lore Alemeyu bears the scars of failed escape attempts. When her village faces destruction, she strikes a desperate bargain with a Fae lord: she’ll venture into a deadly, cursed library untouched for a thousand years.
No Fae can enter the library, but a human might. Ostensibly seeking wealth, Lore’s true goal is more dangerous—a taste of magic coveted by the Fae.
To survive the perilous journey, Lore must rely on two enigmatic Fae males: one brooding and guarded, the other dangerously charming. As sparks fly and trust fractures, Lore risks more than her life—she risks her heart to the very beings she vowed to defy.
In a world of power and treachery, can Lore rewrite her fate?

About the book
The destruction of Kirkwall’s Circle of Magi has brought chaos to the lives of the mages and templars throughout Thedas. Some mages teeter on the brink of rebellion against their templar watchers, while others struggle to maintain order and stability amid the tides of change.
In the majestic White Spire, at the heart of templar power in Val Royeaux, tensions have reached the boiling point. The actions of a few radicals draw the attention of the seekers, a powerful and secret segment of the templars, who arrive to take command and restore order no matter the cost. To make matters worse, a mystical killer stalks the White Spire’s halls, invisible to all save one lone mage.
As Rhys is the only one who can see the killer, all eyes turn to him as the prime suspect in the murder investigation. With little hope of proving his innocence, Rhys’s future looks to be short and grim. But his skill with spirit magic earns him a reprieve, as he is drafted into an expedition traveling deep into the western wastelands of Orlais. There, his fate will become entwined with that of a beautiful templar, a tormented soul, and Wynne—heroine of the Blight. Together they will uncover a secret far greater than they imagined. One that will forever change the fate of mages in Thedas forever.

About the book
Death is one thing, it's what you do afterward that matters.
Aspiring-comedian Raely is the sole survivor of a disastrous train wreck. While faced with the intense grief of losing her best friend, she realizes that someone is following her—and has been following her all her life. Trouble is, no one else can see him. For a ghostly tag-along, Casper’s not so bad. He might even be the partner Raely needs to fight the evil spirit hell-bent on destroying her.
Raely and her friend must learn why this demonic spirit is haunting Raely and how she can stop him before he destroys her life—and her soul. Which, much to her chagrin, means she needs the help of a psychic (although she’s sure they are all charlatans) and must rid herself of the pesky ghost hunter who’s interested in exploiting her new abilities.

About the book
In the jianghu, you break the law to make it your own.
Lin Chong is an expert arms instructor, training the Emperor's soldiers in sword and truncheon, battle axe and spear, lance and crossbow. Unlike bolder friends who flirt with challenging the unequal hierarchies and values of Imperial society, she believes in keeping her head down and doing her job.
Until a powerful man with a vendetta rips that carefully-built life away.
Disgraced, tattooed as a criminal, and on the run from an Imperial Marshall who will stop at nothing to see her dead, Lin Chong is recruited by the Bandits of Liangshan. Mountain outlaws on the margins of society, the Liangshan Bandits proclaim a belief in justice—for women, for the downtrodden, for progressive thinkers a corrupt Empire would imprison or destroy. They’re also murderers, thieves, smugglers, and cutthroats.
Apart, they love like demons and fight like tigers. Together, they could bring down an empire.

Our take
Magicless Princess Illiana Dresden must endure deadly marriage trials to secure her throne.

As darkness spreads across Brookmere, alliances shift and peril mounts. Lana must decide whom to trust in a deadly game where love, betrayal, and survival collide, and the fate of her kingdom hangs in the balance.

About the book
“Polaris Rising is space opera at its best, intense and addictive, a story of honor, courage, betrayal, and love. Jessie Mihalik is an author to watch.”--Ilona Andrews, #1 New York Times bestselling author
A space princess on the run and a notorious outlaw soldier become unlikely allies in this imaginative, sexy space opera adventure—the first in an exciting science fiction trilogy.
In the far distant future, the universe is officially ruled by the Royal Consortium, but the High Councillors, the heads of the three High Houses, wield the true power. As the fifth of six children, Ada von Hasenberg has no authority; her only value to her High House is as a pawn in a political marriage. When her father arranges for her to wed a noble from House Rockhurst, a man she neither wants nor loves, Ada seizes control of her own destiny. The spirited princess flees before the betrothal ceremony and disappears among the stars.
Ada eluded her father’s forces for two years, but now her luck has run out. To ensure she cannot escape again, the fiery princess is thrown into a prison cell with Marcus Loch. Known as the Devil of Fornax Zero, Loch is rumored to have killed his entire chain of command during the Fornax Rebellion, and the Consortium wants his head.
When the ship returning them to Earth is attacked by a battle cruiser from rival House Rockhurst, Ada realizes that if her jilted fiancé captures her, she’ll become a political prisoner and a liability to her House. Her only hope is to strike a deal with the dangerous fugitive: a fortune if he helps her escape.
But when you make a deal with an irresistibly attractive Devil, you may lose more than you bargained for . . .

The Unheard
Horror · Thriller
Our take
When her daughter, Poppy, returns from a weekend with her ex-husband withdrawn and frightened, Tess’s unease turns to terror. A chilling crayon drawing and Poppy’s cryptic words—“He did kill her”—set Tess on a desperate search for answers. As memories fade and others dismiss her fears, Tess digs deeper, unearthing dark secrets that threaten to destroy everything—and everyone—she loves.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Maybe Tess is overprotective, but passing her daughter off to her ex and his new young wife fills her with a sense of dread. It’s not that Jason is a bad father—it just hurts to see him enjoying married life with someone else. Still, she owes it to her daughter Poppy to make this arrangement work.
But Poppy returns from the weekend tired and withdrawn. And when she shows Tess a crayon drawing—an image so simple and violent that Tess can hardly make sense of it——Poppy can only explain with the words, “He did kill her.”
Something is horribly wrong. Tess is certain Poppy saw something—or something happened to her—that she’s too young to understand. Jason insists the weekend went off without a hitch. Doctors advise that Poppy may be reacting to her parents’ separation. And as the days go on, even Poppy’s disturbing memory seems to fade. But a mother knows her daughter, and Tess is determined to discover the truth. Her search will set off an explosive tempest of dark secrets and buried crimes—and more than one life may be at stake.
