Book Description
Flint had concerns about being in charge of a convocation of all the Chosen on Haroon but was willing to do whatever it took to heal her world. With Steel, Marten and Stash, she had barely arrived at the ancient fort in the desert before things went sideways. Juggling the needs and egos of Hands, Guides, Ministers and representatives of gods she’d never heard of was tricky. The combined volume of their different magics was frightening and chaotic. Despite their best efforts, the damage was deeper than they realized and harder to heal. Rifts to lower planes were opening and the danger of incursion imminent. Flint and her companions would need to fight on multiple fronts to restore the world before the fractures could shatter it.

Pages : 362
Book Description
Flint thought that growing up in the dangerous frontier town of Far Enough, with six older brothers, would prepare her for anything...until she met the monster. She had worked hard for a chance to study at the School for Wizards and Weirdlings, but things went sideways when fearsome magic turned her world inside out. Seeing a cruel injustice, Flint took a stand to protect the life of a dangerous creature. The ensuing complications could set her against some powerful people. She’ll need a lot more than a strong back and an honest heart to survive the repercussions of her good intentions. Not sure of who might be her allies or enemies, she’ll have to learn to survive by a very different set of rules or suffer the dire consequences. For fans of smaller world, character-driven fantasy without romance.

Pages : 441
Book Description
An addictive fantasy romance from TikTok sensation Piper CJ, now newly revised and edited. Two orphans grow into powerful young women as they face countless threats to find their way back to each other. Farleigh is just an orphanage. At least, that's what the church would have the people believe, but beautiful orphans Nox and fae-touched Amaris know better. They are commodities for sale, available for purchase by the highest bidder. So when the madame of a notorious brothel in a far-off city offers a king's ransom to purchase Amaris, Nox ends up taking her place — while Amaris is drawn away to the mountains, home of mysterious assassins. Even as they take up new lives and identities, Nox and Amaris never forget one thing: they will stop at nothing to reunite. But the threat of war looms overhead, and the two are inevitably swept into a conflict between human and fae, magic and mundane. With strange new alliances, untested powers, and a bond that neither time nor distance could possibly break, the fate of the realms lies in the hands of two orphans — and the love they hold for each other.

Gardens of the Moon
Author: Steven Erikson
Publisher: Macmillan

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
Vast legions of gods, mages, humans, dragons and all manner of creatures play out the fate of the Malazan Empire in this first book in a major epic fantasy series from Steven Erikson. The Malazan Empire simmers with discontent, bled dry by interminable warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations with the formidable Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii, ancient and implacable sorcerers. Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins. For Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners, and for Tattersail, surviving cadre mage of the Second Legion, the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to mourn the many dead. But Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, yet holds out. It is to this ancient citadel that Laseen turns her predatory gaze. However, it would appear that the Empire is not alone in this great game. Sinister, shadowbound forces are gathering as the gods themselves prepare to play their hand... Conceived and written on a panoramic scale, Gardens of the Moon is epic fantasy of the highest order--an enthralling adventure by an outstanding new voice. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Edinburgh: 1828 In the starkly-lit operating theaters of the city, grisly experiments are being carried out on corpses in the name of medical science. But elsewhere, there are those experimenting with more sinister forces. Amongst the crowded, sprawling tenements of the labyrinthine Old Town, a body is found, its neck torn to pieces. Charged with investigating the murder is Adam Quire, Officer of the newly- formed Edinburgh Police. The trail will lead him into the deepest reaches of the city's criminal underclass, and to the highest echelons of the filthy rich. Soon Quire will discover that a darkness is crawling through this city of enlightenment -- and no one is safe from its corruption. The Edinburgh Dead is a powerful fusion of gothic horror, history, and the fantastical.
