Synopsis The Blacktongue Thief by : Christopher Buehlman

Set in a world of goblin wars, stag-sized battle ravens, and assassins who kill with deadly tattoos, Christopher Buehlman's The Blacktongue Thief begins a 'dazzling' (Robin Hobb) fantasy adventure unlike any other. Kinch Na Shannack owes the Takers Guild a small fortune for his education as a thief, which includes (but is not limited to) lock-picking, knife-fighting, wall-scaling, fall-breaking, lie-weaving, trap-making, plus a few small magics. His debt has driven him to lie in wait by the old forest road, planning to rob the next traveler that crosses his path. But today, Kinch Na Shannack has picked the wrong mark. Galva is a knight, a survivor of the brutal goblin wars, and handmaiden of the goddess of death. She is searching for her queen, missing since a distant northern city fell to giants. Unsuccessful in his robbery and lucky to escape with his life, Kinch now finds his fate entangled with Galva's. Common enemies and uncommon dangers force thief and knight on an epic journey where goblins hunger for human flesh, krakens hunt in dark waters, and honor is a luxury few can afford. “The Blacktongue Thief is fast and fun and filled with crazy magic. I can't wait to see what Christopher Buehlman does next." - Brent Weeks, New York Times bestselling author of the Lightbringer series At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Synopsis Crow Winter by : Karen McBride

Nanabush. A name that has a certain weight on the tongue—a taste. Like lit sage in a windowless room or aluminum foil on a metal filling. Trickster. Storyteller. Shape-shifter. An ancient troublemaker with the power to do great things, only he doesn’t want to put in the work. Since coming home to Spirit Bear Point First Nation, Hazel Ellis has been dreaming of an old crow. He tells her he’s here to help her, save her. From what, exactly? Sure, her dad’s been dead for almost two years and she hasn’t quite reconciled that grief, but is that worth the time of an Algonquin demigod? Soon Hazel learns that there’s more at play than just her own sadness and doubt. The quarry that’s been lying unsullied for over a century on her father’s property is stirring the old magic that crosses the boundaries between this world and the next. With the aid of Nanabush, Hazel must unravel a web of deceit that, if left untouched, could destroy her family and her home on both sides of the Medicine Wheel.

Synopsis One Times One & Other Numinous Stories of Redemption and Loss by : Charles Frode

14 sinister disturbing gently cynical stories where reality is not good or bad, right or wrong, alive or dead. Everything is one thing without limits either in essence or in our feeble attempts to identify and delimit it with our wonderful words. The stories in this second collection present reality as the wonder of redemption and loss. Some stories are about couples, some not. Some are about an individual's personal existential challenge to survive. Some emerged from somewhere inside the author when he unlocked a hidden door. These fourteen stories embody aspects of the spiritual nature of reality, about the redemptive quality inherent in all human beings. Each story presents some kind of loss in the context of spiritual redemption; hope, ultimate hope, hope for self-redemption; and the inherent dignity of all living creatures. Let each story take you somewhere new where you can consider something about yourself, something about ourselves as humans. About the numinous quality of your own redemption and loss.

Synopsis Beautiful Nightmare by : Johnna B

Raven loves the night life, chasing women, and her next high. Men and women fall under her spell at first sight, but she only has eyes for women. She accepts all shapes, sizes, and forms, for they are mere pawns in her quest to feed her cravings. She has a little secret, though, that could cause catastrophic results for anyone who encounters her, and it could potentially lead her into a sticky situation, but her cravings are too powerful for her to resist. Will her little secret come back with a vengeance? Valencia longs to be loved. All she has is her best friend, Sena, who is there for her through thick and thin. Going home to an empty bed every night is starting to wear thin . . . until she meets Wanya “Kidd” Brown, who quickly sweeps her off her feet. Unfortunately, she insists they can never be together, because even if Kidd has stolen her heart, her body belongs to someone else. A low-key assassin working for the notorious Mr. Jackson, Kidd wants nothing more than to be out of the business. He is smitten with Valencia’s beauty and her caring ways. Just when he thinks he can get out of the game and pursue Valencia wholeheartedly, Mr. Jackson calls in a favor—that rocks his world to the core. Will his heart overrule his loyalty to his boss?
