Hell to Pay

It's been one month since Bex's rebel crew took over the Seattle Anchor, and things have been suspiciously good. They're emancipating slaves by the busload, earning money from their thriving Free Market, and basically living the Gilgamesh-free life of their dreams. It's what Bex always wanted for her people, so why does she feel so uneasy? It could be because she's working twenty-hour days desperately trying to free her wrath demons. Or because Gilgamesh has sealed off all the Anchors still under his control, creating a worldwide shortage of the magical quintessence their new fortress needs to stay afloat. Everywhere Bex looks, timers are ticking down on the safe haven she's built for her demons, but the biggest threat is the one she doesn't see, because Heaven hasn't been idle. The man who killed the gods knows how to handle a rebellion. The closer the demons get to victory, the tighter the invisible noose becomes, and when the Queen of Wrath crosses the final line, there will be Hell to Pay.

Legend Has It

A magic book causes chaos across New York City, forcing a monster hunter to set things right, in this fifth entry in the urban fantasy adventure series. "As always the best part of the book is John's irreverent wit. Include that with an interesting and well-plotted story, clever characters, exciting battles, and excellent worldbuilding, all of which made it a hard book to put down." —Elitist Book Reviews For John Charming, living the dream just became a nightmare. Someone, somewhere, is reading a magic book that is reading them right back. Real life is becoming a fairytale: high school students are turning, quite literally, into zombies, subway workers into dwarves, drug addicts into vampires. John Charming and his motley band of monster hunters are racing to find the villain of this story, following the yellow brick road through a not so wonderful wonderland. And if they can't find Reader Zero before the book is closed, there won't be a happily ever after again. "Rising star James is back with the newest installment in his dangerous and dangerously wacky Pax Arcana series. Combining hair-raising peril and humor is a James trademark that works extremely well in taking readers on over-the-top UF adventures they won't soon forget! If you have not checked out James's books, you are missing out!" — RT Book Reviews

Such Sharp Teeth

A young woman in need of a transformation finds herself in touch with the animal inside in this gripping, incisive USA Today bestselling novel from the author of Cackle and The Return. Rory Morris isn’t thrilled to be moving back to her hometown, even if it is temporary. There are bad memories there. But her twin sister, Scarlett, is pregnant, estranged from the baby’s father, and needs support, so Rory returns to the place she thought she’d put in her rearview. After a night out at a bar where she runs into Ian, an old almost-flame, she hits a large animal with her car. And when she gets out to investigate, she’s attacked. Rory survives, miraculously, but life begins to look and feel different. She’s unnaturally strong, with an aversion to silver—and suddenly the moon has her in its thrall. She’s changing into someone else—something else, maybe even a monster. But does that mean she’s putting those close to her in danger? Or is embracing the wildness inside of her the key to acceptance? This darkly comedic love story is a brilliantly layered portrait of trauma, rage, and vulnerability.

Feast of Shadows

One part mystery. One part savagery. Three parts magic. Years ago, driven by greed, men penetrated the last soft places on earth. Out of the clear-cut jungle—out of nowhere—a man appeared, eyes rimmed in blue. The last shaman. A man who could make magic. Across five stories, five victims of inexplicable events narrate their encounters with an enigmatic titan of magic, a man without a past, whose tattooed palms hold the power to alter human history—or to end it. Agony in Violet As his marriage crumbles around him, a brilliant medical scientist searches for the source of a horrific illness that leaves its victims ashen and wasted. With no apparent connections between them, his only clues are the strange symbols that appear near the bodies after death. When a child is stricken, old traumas resurface and the good doctor turns in desperation to a curious consultant, who reveals that not every labyrinth has walls, and that the horrors you face there are always your own. Curse of the Red Dagger A troubled young woman, pregnant with a billionaire’s baby, disappears without a trace. Determined to save his child, he offers her best friend one million dollars to find her. But following in her friend’s footsteps proves more difficult than she expected. Everyone connected to the disappearance seems desperate to hide the truth. As they each fall to mysterious circumstances, death closes around her, and her only chance to save her friend is to sacrifice herself to an ancient power. To the White of the Bone A mangled body floats to the surface of a reservoir with nothing to distinguish the victim save for a binding knot branded under her tongue. The case is routed to the NYPD’s resident occultist, an uncompromising homicide detective whose history of unusual and uncertain results has left her career in shambles. Dodging an inquiry into a fatal shooting and pursued by a homicidal witch, she contemplates a devil’s bargain to stop the killer, who just may be the Lord of Shadows. The Song on the Green One by one, the children of an upscale Pennsylvania neighborhood are found crippled and catatonic, their minds seemingly vanished. As the panicked community searches in vain for a human predator, they neglect the only witness, an eight-year-old boy with a menagerie of strays, who is left to stand alone against the very creature that hunts him. Bright Black After carelessly killing an innocent, a beautiful aristocrat is cursed with eternal youth. Forced to endure as waves of friends and loved ones wither and fade around her, she wanders the ages in search of meaning—from the wars of Napoleon to the Victorians in India, from the Great Depression to the collapse of the Iron Curtain. Recruited as a spy in an occult war, she soon tires of blood and loss and retreats to a small village in the mountains, where an accident reveals missing memories and an unfortunate truth: that the mistakes of five lifetimes are not so easily fled. Part urban fantasy, part hard-boiled whodunit, FEAST OF SHADOWS is a five-course occult mystery and the most devilish meal you’ll ever read. The complete epic conundrum is available in two parts.

Il bacio della buonanotte

Londra, giorni nostri. Martin ha diciott'anni, un futuro tutto da inventare e un padre che detesta. Quando incontra Bruce e Summer scopre di far parte dei Pellegrini, creature che si reincarnano nei secoli e la cui guerra continua di vita in vita; a ogni incarnazione possono cambiare sesso, origine, nazionalità, ma restano sempre se stessi. Ogni volta il fato li riporta in contatto e ogni volta nessuno di loro ricorda nulla del passato. Recuperare quei ricordi è possibile, ma ha un costo; spezzare la ruota, invece, sembra impossibile. Fino alla comparsa di un'arma leggendaria. Per trovarla, Martin dovrà decidere per cosa combattere – e quanto sarà disposto a sacrificare.

Crown of Imp and Bone

Once more the fate of mankind rests on Satan’s shoulders. A stupid misunderstanding has broken a ten-thousand-year old contract between the fae and the angels, and humans are now paying the price. Fairies are crossing through portals and freely kidnapping men, women, and children without fear of reprisal. The humans have no idea what’s happening to these random people, and the angel’s answer is to close the fae portals every couple of days and establish a committee to study the problem. And nobody has time for that. It’s up to me to get the Seelie queen to back down, to bring peace to a war-torn realm, and to rescue a bunch of teenage fairy girls—all while planning my wedding. Because the solution to every problem is chaos, and that’s what imps do best.

The Map That Led to You

Perfect for fans of One Piece, this is an epic Black queer pirate fantasy that you won't be able to put down! A long time ago, a witch burst into flames. A pirate and a mermaid fell in love. A map was marked with a glowing X. And a republic was born. Levi and Vega are the children of the fearsome pirate captain of The Sea Dragon. They have been raised on tales of daring feats and seafaring adventures, but there are stories they haven't been told--stories about witches and mermaids and magical maps. When tragedy strikes, the siblings land on the Pirate Republic, a self-governed island of freedom and adventure. Levi uncovers the secrets of his past as he works with his sister, a sea nymph, the pirates, and witches to protect the island from the conquering Empire. But he must learn to accept himself before he can even begin to help his friends. In the present day, two girls are given a history assignment: to try and piece together the rise and fall of the famous and corrupt Pirate Republic, which once formed their island home. As Reggie and Maeve's tentative friendship deepens into something more, they realize that a magical world could be on their very doorstep--if only they can find the map. Published in partnership with GLAAD, this novel is an intoxicatingly rich fantasy that blends high seas, swashbuckling adventure and lyrical poetry.

Hard Liquor - Der Geschmack der Nacht

Tycho ist als Nachfahrin alter Götter übermenschlich stark. Besonders, wenn sie Alkohol trinkt. Nicht schlecht, um sich als Barkeeperin in New York gegen zwielichtige Typen zu behaupten. Doch auch nicht ohne Schattenseiten. Damit niemand jemals hinter ihr Geheimnis kommt, muss sie selbst ihren besten Freund Logan auf Abstand halten. Dann taucht auf einmal die attraktive Grayson in ihrem Leben auf, und Tycho hat zum ersten Mal das Gefühl, sich jemandem öffnen zu können. Aber Grayson hat ihr nicht die ganze Wahrheit erzählt. Und als kurz darauf eine Sekte hinter Tycho her ist, um ihre Kräfte für sich zu beanspruchen, weiß sie nicht, wem sie vertrauen kann ... »Hard Liquor ist Urban Fantasy vom Feinsten. Düster, sexy, actionreich und ganz am Puls der Zeit. Tycho ist cool. Grayson ist krass. Und die Geschichte der beiden einfach berauschend.« LAURA KNEIDL

Payback's a Witch

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina meets The L Word in this fresh, sizzling New York Times bestselling rom-com by Lana Harper. Emmy Harlow is a witch but not a very powerful one—in part because she hasn't been home to the magical town of Thistle Grove in years. Her self-imposed exile has a lot to do with a complicated family history and a desire to forge her own way in the world, and only the very tiniest bit to do with Gareth Blackmoore, heir to the most powerful magical family in town and casual breaker of hearts and destroyer of dreams. But when a spellcasting tournament that her family serves as arbiters for approaches, it turns out the pull of tradition (or the truly impressive parental guilt trip that comes with it) is strong enough to bring Emmy back. She's determined to do her familial duty; spend some quality time with her best friend, Linden Thorn; and get back to her real life in Chicago. On her first night home, Emmy runs into Talia Avramov—an all-around badass adept in the darker magical arts—who is fresh off a bad breakup . . . with Gareth Blackmoore. Talia had let herself be charmed, only to discover that Gareth was also seeing Linden—unbeknownst to either of them. And now she and Linden want revenge. Only one question stands: Is Emmy in? But most concerning of all: Why can't she stop thinking about the terrifyingly competent, devastatingly gorgeous, wickedly charming Talia Avramov?

Wicked Girls

You're a witch, Teagan! That's what my new roommate tells me - not exactly what I was expecting from my first week of college. My first thought is she's off her rocker, but when she brings me to a huge, gothic building in the middle of town that I somehow never noticed before and welcomes me to Lilith Academy - a school for witches - it starts to feel real. And so do my powers. The little tingles I always wrote off as my imagination turn into surges of energy I struggle to control - especially when my roomie and two of the other girls from class are nearby. They make my newfound magic go wild. If I don't find a way to tame it and pass my first-year exams I'll lose my power... but I can't stay away from these deliciously wicked girls. Welcome to Lilith Academy, a sapphic urban fantasy series about girl power, smashing the patriarchy, and once-in-a-lifetime love between four hot, fiery witches.

I promised to avenge my parents. But their killer is still on the loose, and he's stolen more than my parents' lives. Now, as he draws closer to his mysterious goals, he's poised to destroy what little I have left. I promised to translate an ancient grimoire. But it holds the secrets of my family--and the secret history of demon summoning. I fear its answers as much as I need them. Who was the foremother of Demonica...and who am I? I promised to send my demon home. But the way he watches me, the way he protects me, the way he touches me--how can I cast him away forever? I swore I would do this for him, but can I? Should I? But I promised--and I will keep my promises even if they cost me my heart, my soul, and my life.

Golden Hood

I’m just your friendly neighborhood Robin Hood. Ever since my coven was destroyed, I spend my days in The Wild stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, along with my merry band of werewolves and a grumpy wizard. The people protect my identity in exchange for my good deeds. If Lord Doran and his vampire rangers ever discover who I am and what I’m capable of, my body parts would end up as a crispy kebab. When humans start dropping dead from a horrible disease, they turn to me for help, but they’re not the only ones. Lord Doran wants me to report my findings and I’m unnerved by my response to our first up-close-and-personal meeting. I stamp out the indecent thoughts because anything short of repulsion is unacceptable. Besides, there’s another interested party and this one doesn’t have a target on my back. During my investigation, a new player emerges but I’m the one getting the blame. Somebody’s out for blood—and this time it isn’t a vampire. As the pressure increases, so does the body count—and if I don’t play my cards right, there won’t be any winners. Golden Hood is the first book in the Midnight Empire: New Dawn urban fantasy trilogy set in a world of darkness where vampires rule, magic abounds, and the biggest threat to the status quo is a woman who embraces her true power.

Terrible Praise

For five hundred years, all Stela had known was a roving life in service to her maker, Fane. But in the last century her family has built a permanent residence in the abandoned freight tunnels beneath Chicago, where anonymity reigns supreme. Navigating the modern world is not easy and Stela, once a fierce warrior, has traded the heat of battle for petty negotiation, her sword for a pen, and her station as Fane’s enforcer to now serve as her family’s financial liaison. When a late meeting forces Stela to visit a nearby hospital, she crosses paths with the beguiling Elizabeth Dumas—a brilliant nurse who sacrificed her academic career to care for her ailing mother. Their charged encounter will threaten the secrecy Stela has sworn to uphold, and the bond they unwittingly forge will irrevocably alter both their lives. Worlds collide and entwine in Terrible Praise, Book One of The Redamancy Series.

Sparkle Witch (The lazy Girl’s Guide to Magic #3.5)

The man didn't look like much at first glance. Taller than me but weedy, with an oddly bulbous head perched on top of a white, scrawny neck. He was smartly dressed, with a suit and tie, but I should have known better than to assume that clothes maketh the man. I'd had some ridiculously wealthy people in the back of my cab in the past and the most affluent of them looked as if he'd been sleeping rough for three months. Maybe that was why he had such a healthy bank account - because he didn't waste time on things like shaving or brushing his hair or, um, washing. Anyway, this man, the one holding a thin arm up to flag me down, looked like a strong gust of wind would blow him over. Judging from his pale skin, he didn't get outside much. Perhaps he had a fear of strong breezes. Whatever, I figured that one more customer would be good enough to see me through until the end of the week. I hoped, however, that he wasn't travelling far. I'd kicked people out before for requesting destinations that were going to take hours to reach. Not the done thing, but I have a life too. I've got better things to do than spend all of it driving people around and having the same conversations over and over again about their holidays or the weather or the latest goings on in Enchantment over on Channel 5. Not that I dislike my job - far from it - but I don't live to work. I'm not deranged. I pulled up at the kerb and he got into the back, sitting directly behind me. Cutteslowe,' he grunted. Then he glanced at me and did a double take. I get that a lot; for some reason, people always seem to find it surprising that a woman drives a taxi. I have no idea why. It's not as if it takes a special skill set that I don't have because of my gender. Having some dangly bits wouldn't make holding a steering wheel and finding my way around a small city like Oxford any easier. No, my breasts do not impair my ability to drive. And yes, I can park. I've heard all the jokes. They're never funny. Men can be witches and women can be taxi drivers. Big bloody deal.

Trans Wizard Harriet Porber and the Bad Boy Parasaurolophus

How the treatment of sexual consent in erotic fanfiction functions as a form of cultural activism. Sexual consent is--at best--a contested topic in Western societies and cultures. The #MeToo movement has brought public attention to issues of sexual consent, revealing the endemic nature of sexual violence. Feminist academic approaches to sexual violence and consent are diverse and multidisciplinary--and yet consent itself is significantly undertheorized. In Dubcon, Milena Popova points to a community that has been considering issues of sex, power, and consent for many years: writers and readers of fanfiction. Their nuanced engagement with sexual consent, Popova argues, can shed light on these issues in ways not available to either academia or journalism. Popova explains that the term "dubcon" (short for "dubious consent") was coined by the fanfiction community to make visible the gray areas between rape and consent--for example, in situations where the distribution of power may limit an individual's ability to give meaningful consent to sex. Popova offers a close reading of three fanfiction stories in the Omegaverse genre, examines the "arranged marriage" trope, and discusses the fanfiction community's response when a sports star who was a leading character in RPF (real person fiction) was accused of rape. Proposing that fanfiction offers a powerful discursive resistance on issues of rape and consent that challenges dominant discourses about gender, romance, sexuality, and consent, Popova shows that fanfiction functions as a form of cultural activism.

Furia y Tormenta

Puede que a sus dieciocho años Trinity Marrow se esté quedando ciega, pero es capaz de ver fantasmas y espíritus y comunicarse con ellos. Su extraordinario don forma parte de un secreto tan peligroso que Trinity lleva años escondiéndose en un aislado complejo fuertemente vigilado por Guardianes, gárgolas cambiaformas que protegen a la humanidad de los demonios. Si los demonios descubren la verdad sobre Trinity, la devorarán, literalmente, para aumentar sus poderes. Cuando llegan Guardianes de otro clan con la alarmante noticia de que algo está matando tanto a demonios como a Guardianes, el seguro mundo de Trinity se hace añicos. En gran parte debido a que uno de los recién llegados es la persona más irritante y fascinante que jamás haya conocido. Zayne guarda secretos que pondrán el mundo de Trinity del revés una vez más, pero se ven obligados a trabajar juntos cuando los demonios irrumpen en el recinto y el secreto de Trinity sale a la luz. Para salvar a su familia, y tal vez al mundo, Trinity tendrá que confiar en Zayne.

Warping Minds & other Misdemeanors

Je m’appelle Kit Morris. Bienvenue dans ma vie pour le moins... tordue. Je suis un type normal. Bon, j’ai des pouvoirs psychiques qui, eux, n’ont rien d’ordinaire, mais, comme vous, j’essaie tant bien que mal de m’en sortir dans un monde impitoyable. Alors oui, j’ai peut-être arnaqué quelques personnes, mais méritais-je pour autant de me retrouver dans les prisons du MPD aux côtés de tueurs en série qui manient la magie ? L’agent Lienna Shen en est persuadée, en tout cas. Sauf que, malgré son attitude inflexible et son statut de prodige de l’Arcana, elle ne parvient pas à arrêter mon ancien meilleur ami, qui échappe au MPD et est à deux doigts de soumettre la ville à des horreurs inimaginables. Ou de voler quelque chose. Je ne sais pas trop, à vrai dire. Quoi qu’il en soit, c’est la raison pour laquelle je me retrouve dans cette salle d’interrogatoire avec Lienna. C’est aussi la raison pour laquelle je viens de proposer d’être son partenaire temporaire afin de contrecarrer les plans de mon ex-complice. Parce que ça va me permettre de m’évader. Et, qui sait, il se pourrait même que je l’aide à avancer un peu sur l’affaire avant de mettre les voiles. #Magie #PouvoirsPsychiques #Enquête

Nice Girls don’t have Fangs

The first in the Half-Moon Hollow series is “wry, delicious fun” (Susan Andersen, New York Times bestselling author) as it follows a librarian whose life is turned upside down by a tempestuous and sexy vampire. Maybe it was the Shenanigans gift certificate that put her over the edge. When children’s librarian and self-professed nice girl Jane Jameson is fired by her beastly boss and handed twenty-five dollars in potato skins instead of a severance check, she goes on a bender that’s sure to become Half Moon Hollow legend. On her way home, she’s mistaken for a deer, shot, and left for dead. And thanks to the mysterious stranger she met while chugging neon-colored cocktails, she wakes up with a decidedly unladylike thirst for blood. Jane is now the latest recipient of a gift basket from the Newly Undead Welcoming Committee, and her life-after-lifestyle is taking some getting used to. Her recently deceased favorite aunt is now her ghostly roommate. She has to fake breathing and endure daytime hours to avoid coming out of the coffin to her family. She’s forced to forgo her favorite down-home Southern cooking for bags of O negative. Her relationship with her sexy, mercurial vampire sire keeps running hot and cold. And if all that wasn’t enough, it looks like someone in Half Moon Hollow is trying to frame her for a series of vampire murders. What’s a nice undead girl to do?

There's bad, and then there's bad. And I'm not sure which applies to a certain reluctant friend of mine. His transgressions include black-magic dealings, kidnapping, and murder, and he's about to add "revenge-fueled killing spree" to his resume-if I don't stop him. Maybe the question is ... should I stop him?

Abandoned Things

Throne? In danger. Alien boyfriend? At odds with alien fiancé. A coup designed to take over both her planets? Only one of this earth girl’s troubles. Delaney wishes she were a normal teenager back on Earth with no cares but her recent graduation, her best friend, and her hot alien boyfriend. Instead she’s on Xenith, a war-torn planet half a galaxy away. And on Xenith, she isn’t just a regular girl anymore. She’s gone from kidnapped imposter to legitimate heir to the throne. Not to mention she is, once again, engaged to Trystan, the enemy prince that turned her life upside down for a second time. Trystan isn’t all bad. Behind his poised exterior is an unwavering devotion to the people of his planet and...to her. With her actual boyfriend finally free and planning for their return to Earth, it’s getting hard to ignore that the stars are shifting for Delaney. She loves Ruckus, but she can’t shake a nagging sense of responsibility to the people of Xenith. Worse, she can’t seem to find it in her to take Trystan’s engagement necklace off... This choice might be easier if a war wasn’t hanging over all of their heads. Awkward love triangles aside, Ruckus, Delany, and Trystan will have to trust each other and work together to stop Trystan’s father from forging an empire. He will stop at nothing to get what he wants and no one, not even his only son, is safe. And once he’s conquered Xenith...he’s heading straight for Earth.

Dragon Juctice

In my time with PUPI, formally known as Private, Unaffiliated Paranormal Investigations, I've seen a lot. Learned a lot. And not all of it's been good. But what we do—make people accountable for crimes committed with magic—is important work. Still. Even I need to take a break every now and again. Or so I've just been told (ordered). So hey, vacation. Maybe I'll finally figure out what's going on with the "special bond" between me and the boss man, Benjamin Venec. Venec seems to like that idea—he's invited me down to join him on a jaunt to Philly. But no sooner do I arrive in the City of Brotherly Love than we're called in to look at a dead body. And that's when life gets really complicated….

Rupert Wong, Cannibal Chef

It's not unusual to work two jobs in this day and age, but sorcerer and former triad soldier Rupert Wong's life is more complicated than most. By day, he makes human hors d'oeuvres for a dynasty of ghouls; by night, he pushes pencils for the Ten Chinese Hells. Of course, it never seems to be enough to buy him a new car—or his restless, flesh-eating-ghost girlfriend passage from the reincarnation cycle—until opportunity comes smashing through his window. In Kuala Lumpur, where deities from a handful of major faiths tip-toe around each other and damned souls number in the millions, it's important to tread carefully. Now the Dragon King of the South wants to throw Rupert right in it. The ocean god's daughter and her once-mortal husband have been murdered, leaving a single clue: bloodied feathers from the Greek furies. It's a clue that could start a war between pantheons, and Rupert's stuck in the middle. Success promises wealth, power and freedom, and failure... doesn't.

Whispers from the cotton tree root

The lushness of language and the landscape, wild contrasts, and pure storytelling magic abound in this anthology of Caribbean writing. Steeped in the tradition of fabulism, where the irrational and inexplicable coexist with the realities of daily life, the stories in this collection are infused with a vitality and freshness that most writing traditions have long ago lost. From spectral slaving ships to women who shed their skin at night to become owls, stories from writers such as Jamaica Kincaid, Marcia Douglas, Ian MacDonald, and Kamau Brathwaite pulse with rhythms, visions, and the tortured history of this spiritually rich region of the world.

Boundary Crossed

A federal agent in Chicago is charged with stopping a vampire crime surge in this urban fantasy thriller series debut. Humans have never been all that comfortable with the knowledge that they coexist with otherworldly bloodsuckers known as shades. Yet life does go on . . . with some adjustments. The Bureau of Paranormal Investigations has special authority to apprehend shades—or vampires as they’re more widely known—who break the law. Alex McKenna is the new Special Agent in Charge of the BPI’s Chicago office. And he has plenty to keep him busy. Children have been going missing, and agents are routinely being slaughtered. It’s up to McKenna, and some unlikely allies, to get to the bottom of the problem, and find the kids before it’s too late.
