| The Waking Fire | | | | Anthony Ryan | | | “Heroic epic fantasy.”
—Fantasy Book Critic
Throughout the vast lands controlled by the Ironship Trading Syndicate, nothing is more prized than the blood of drakes. It can be distilled into elixirs that bestow fearsome powers on the rare men and women known as the Blood-blessed. But not many know the truth: that the lines of drakes are weakening. The Syndicate’s last hope resides in whispers of the existence of another breed of drake, far more powerful than the rest, and the few who have been chosen by fate to seek it. | | | | | | |
| Red Queen | | | | Christina Henry | | | “A fun and magical read.”
—The Oklahoman
The land outside of the Old City was supposed to be green, lush, hopeful. A place where Alice could finally rest. But the verdant fields are nothing but ash—and hope is nowhere to be found. Still, Alice and Hatcher are on a mission to find his daughter, a quest they will not forsake even as it takes them deep into the clutches of the mad White Queen and her goblin or into the realm of the twisted and cruel Black King. | | | | | | |
| Paper and Fire | | | | Rachel Caine | | | “A thrill-a-minute adventure.”
—Booklist (starred review)
The Great Library controls the knowledge of the world, ruthlessly stamping out all rebellion, forbidding the personal ownership of books in the name of the greater good. Jess Brightwell has survived his introduction to the world of the Library, but serving in its army is nothing like he envisioned. Embarking on a mission to save one of their own, Jess and his band of allies make one wrong move and suddenly find themselves hunted by the Library’s deadly automata and forced to flee. | | | | | | |
| Flameout | | | | Keri Arthur | | | "Stellar writing and plotting.”
—Just Talking Books
