Mercenary. Survivor. Queen.

Who is Casia Greythorne?

Still reeling from an unimaginable loss and the revelation of an identity she isn't sure she wants to embrace, Casia has one plan: Try to control something. Something like the strange magic awakening inside of her. Mastering that magic will take her and her friends on a quest through cursed lands, into the dwellings of old gods, and deep into a southern empire filled with deadly foes and unlikely allies.

Meanwhile, the foundations of the Kethran Empire continue to crumble. The king-emperor clings to his crown with increasingly bloodied hands. Monsters and soldiers alike stalk Casia's every step, determined not to let her return to claim a throne that is rightfully hers. Still, the greatest threat to her possible rule may not lie in the king-emperor, but in a former captain of his army-a man that she came dangerously close to falling in love with.

Elander Revenmar thought he knew who he was. He had a mission, a plan, a god he was content to serve. Then came Casia. A woman as mysterious as she is dangerous. One he should have stayed away from, and whose life he never should have saved.

Because salvation always comes with a cost.

And some debts can only be paid for in blood.

Mt. Therese, New Hampshire, has always had ghosts. Buried in the ground beneath the concrete, woven into the foundations of buildings and houses, and stashed away from prying eyes, they walk the roads bridging the rural to the urban, hiding in the spaces behind the sunlight. Being a seer, Cosette Arden draws them in and sees past their hiding spots, learning how to live alongside them.

But when a strange girl named Genevieve crashes her car outside Cosette's remote house in the middle of a snowstorm, everything starts to unravel and come to light. Ghosts in her house become restless with the newcomer, speaking in hushed voices Cosette can barely hear. Even Genevieve begins reacting to the spirits that won't leave her alone. When she reveals her connection to Mt. Therese--a link to one of Cosette's murdered friends--Cosette unearths a part of her past she thought was lost forever to come to terms with the secrets and ghosts of her own life.

But things are rarely as they seem, and something old lurks in the shadows. An ancient threat that has killed before wants to kill again, and he has his eyes set on someone in Mt. Therese...

Midnight check-ins. Disturbing blood stains. A family with a standing reservation for over a century. These are a few things you may deal with when burdened with inheriting a motel.

Every two years, a family of seven check-in to the remote Bloodridge Motel. Situated along a highway known for its haunting history of disappearances and murder, the mountain-top lodging borders a national park dedicated to a labyrinth of mysterious caverns. Regularly hosting road-weary travelers and tourists, the Bloodridge rarely receives repeat business, except for The Family.

When the motel is left to the founder's last living descendant, the truth behind The Family and their unnatural origin is uncovered, one body at a time. The reluctant owner's decision to sell the motel sets in motion the unraveling of a decades-old mystery that begs the question, who are The Family and why don't they seem to age?

A horrifying story about loss, isolation, and immortality.

Werewolves, vampires, and other preternatural creatures have been living in relative peace with humanity for the past twenty-six years. There are other monsters that humanity doesn't know of, but it's best kept that way.

Valkyrie Dalton is one of these monsters. As a hellhound for Cerberus, she marks souls for the Greek underworld. When she's not gifting people with the 'kiss of death', or drinking away her problems, she's solving cases as a detective for the Las Vegas Preternatural Crime Unit. After all, it takes a monster to catch one.

When headless, heartless bodies start appearing, Val's forced to get close to her new partner, Jack Khoury. He's blunt, forward, and way too hot for his own good. As they spend more time together, the mental walls she carefully built start to crumble.

Fighting her attraction to Jack, Val tries to focus on the case. However, as more bodies appear, she's soon introduced to a whole other underworld.

From the UK Children's Laureate comes a spellbinding YA novel in verse blending the ancient myth of Theseus and the Minotaur with the quest of a modern-day teen in search of his father.

Theo, a seventeen-year-old London schoolboy with a single mother, is desperate to track down the father who left them, whom he scarcely remembers. At school he discovers Greek mythology and the ancient story of Theseus, a fatherless son driven on a similar search. As Theo focuses on Theseus in a series of poems he composes, it becomes clear the two journeys echo each other in uncanny ways. Theseus must conquer his enemies--a psycho Cyclops, a tree-bending murderer, a monstrous pig--while Theo is tricked and double-crossed, confronting obstacles ranging from a search-agency scam artist to a depraved lawyer. Poet Joseph Coelho brilliantly interweaves the boys' stories, following them through dangers, horrors, and false successes, revealing that Theo must be as resourceful and strong as his mythical hero. In a unique twist, readers are asked to take a role in picking which option the heroes should pursue when facing choices on their path to manhood. The two alternating stories, along with stories from the Minotaur's perspective, fuse into one in a riveting climax, as the protagonists meet in the heart of the labyrinth.
