Lydia is defeated. She is now Techninja's willing slave, an oracle of the greatest artifact in all of the underworld, the Throne of Shadows. With it, Lydia sees clearly through the darkests of shadows, the secrets of the blackest hearts. But in her vision, she also sees her allies moving to the rescue.

The parents of were-rat Lydia Iceron leaders of the were-rat clan, recently engineered their own demise after assuring that 1) Lydia was properly trained to survive their absence and 2) she had two friends whom she could trust absolutely. Now Lydia has inherited the Throne of Shadows, which allows its rightful heir to read his/her underlings' minds, and all the power that comes with it. There's a couple of problems, though. The first is that she doesn't WANT it. She'd prefer to take the money and run with her two friends, Moisha Rich and Romeo Ellis. The second is that several former members of the super-criminal organization Crime Syndicate-X DO want it, and are all too ready to cause Lydia and her friends any amount of pain and suffering to get it! This thrill-packed paperback collects the entire fan-favorite four-issue mini-series by GD creator Fred Perry and monster-master Craig Babiar (I Hunt Monsters, Pirates vs. Ninjas)! Don't let it get stolen from you!

Lydia, Moisha and Romeo regroup on their new yacht to figure out what to do about the people out to kill Lydia so the were-rat throne--and the reins of the criminal underworld--will be up for grabs. Between the stealthy Techninja scoping them out, the power-packin' T-Hawk and the feral Rabid striking head-on, and the indestructible zombie Burnhead heading their way with an underwater mine, the were-rats might not survive long enough to leave a sinking ship!

Naga and Stone covet the First Sword, and now they must face each other and the weight of Eon and his majin army for possession of the ancient blade. Now, Naga must confront her own shadowed soul and her ultimate destiny.

Best-selling author Rick Riordan Presents the penultimate book in the Pandava series by best-selling author Roshani Chokshi. Aru Shah and her sisters--including one who also claims to be the Sleeper's daughter--must find their mentors Hanuman and Urvashi in Lanka, the city of gold, before war breaks out between the devas and asuras. Aru has just made a wish on the tree of wishes, but she can't remember what it was. She's pretty sure she didn't wish for a new sister, one who looks strangely familiar and claims to be the Sleeper's daughter, like her. Aru also isn't sure she still wants to fight on behalf of the devas in the war against the Sleeper and his demon army. The gods have been too devious up to now. Case in point: Kubera, ruler of the city of gold, promises to give the Pandavas two powerful weapons, but only if they win his trials. If they lose, they won't stand a chance against the Sleeper's troops, which will soon march on Lanka to take over the Otherworld. Aru's biggest question, though, is why every adult she has loved and trusted so far has failed her. Will she come to peace with what they've done before she has to wage the battle of her life? Filled with wondrous magic, unforgettable creatures, manipulative gods, and laugh-out-loud dialogue, this fourth book in the Pandava series, a fantasy adventure loosely based on mythology, will leave readers wishing they could read the finale right now.
