Book Description
Stay away from the mines of Mt. Couture. Advice that the village of Faiwell followed for thousands of years. But when precious metals from the surrounding mountains become scarce and the threat of famine looms, two teams are sent to explore the long abandoned mines. The first team becomes trapped by a tunnel collapse and are hunted by an otherworldly terror that roams the mines at night. Even worse, the workers act peculiar and mumble on about a Dark Savior. Gold Fever follows Joel, a young mute from the second team of miners who knows more than he lets on. He and his new friends navigate the many dangers of Mt. Couture and attempt to hunt for valuable metals, find the first team, and most importantly... survive.

Book Description
Shining Black Lights The Way To A Place Where Your Dark Savior Lay... Tasked with gathering precious metals to save their struggling settlement, the miners of Faiwell aim to enter Mt. Couture for the first time in over 100 years. Joel knows the treacherous secret of the mountain and why they should avoid it at all costs. He tries to warn the others, but his muted pleas fall on deaf ears, and they enter the mines in search of treasure and glory. Within the shadows, Joel and the others are plagued by mischievous creatures, cave-ins, and treachery at the hands of their own allies. To make matters worse, they are hunted by an otherworldly terror with an appetite for human flesh. Sword and pickaxe alike shatter against its impenetrable hide, and every encounter with the beast ends in bloody disaster. Yet, even in the face of such horrors, the miners are too enamored with their treasures to escape. For the tunnel collapses and monsters of Mt. Couture are not what worry Joel. It is the enigmatic voice in their dreams telling them they must have more: the one who would call himself Dark Savior. Can Joel lead the miners away from their madness and back to safety? Or will their newfound desires see Mt. Couture swallowing them up like so many before?

Book Description
DARK MINDS CONSPIRING Thousands of years ago, seven seals were created to lock the Dark Savior away in another realm, never to torment the world again. After the Mt. Couture disaster one year prior, six seals remain. Aldous, now a disgraced Wizard, fears that Village Elder Drake Danvers and a mysterious Dark Wizard aim to break the remaining six seals. Joel and Alistair accompany Aldous to Drake's next suspected target, the struggling city of Thironas. There, they find more than they bargained for: old rivals, desperate bandits, a terrifying monster, and an all-powerful Wizard who forces them to live out their worst memories rather than help. Meanwhile, Dalton and Lucia travel to the far away shores of Bosfueras in search of Conrad, who mysteriously disappeared three months ago, leaving nothing but a letter behind. In this unfriendly land, they stumble upon a conspiracy which could threaten the very fabric of their world!

Book Description
Morgan offers an authentic and deliciously humorous account of the prostitutes and other "disreputable" women who were the earliest female pioneers of the Far North. At the turn of the century, tens of thousands of Americans left their homes, escaping a worldwide depression & the restraints of the Victorian Era, to stampede to Alaska & the Yukon, where millions of dollars in gold was being discovered in remote, subartic mining camps. Women accompanied the men on the long journey to the Far North--more often prostitutes, dance hall girls & entertainers than respectful wives & schoolteachers. These are the girls of the demimonde, that "half world" of disreputable women who lived on the outskirts of society. Meet "Dutch Kate" Wilson, who pioneered many areas long before the "respectable" women who received credit for getting there first; ruthless heartbreakers Cad Wilson & Rose Blumkin; "French Marie" Larose, who auctioned herself off as a wife to the highest bidder; & Edith Neile, called the "Oregon Mare," famous for both her outlandish behavior & her soft-hearted generosity. These "good time girls" crossed geographic & social frontiers, finding freedom, independence, hardship, heartbreak & sometimes astonishing wealth. They were an important part of this key chapter in the history of the West, which holds a special place in the American imagination.

Book Description
MacKayla Lane’s life is good. She has great friends, a decent job, and a car that breaks down only every other week or so. In other words, she’s your perfectly ordinary twenty-first-century woman. Or so she thinks . . . until something extraordinary happens. When her sister is murdered, leaving a single clue to her death–a cryptic message on Mac’s cell phone—Mac journeys to Ireland in search of answers. The quest to find her sister’s killer draws her into a shadowy realm where nothing is as it seems, where good and evil wear the same treacherously seductive mask. She is soon faced with an even greater challenge: staying alive long enough to learn how to handle a power she had no idea she possessed—a gift that allows her to see beyond the world of man, into the dangerous realm of the Fae. . . . As Mac delves deeper into the mystery of her sister’s death, her every move is shadowed by the dark, mysterious Jericho, a man with no past and only mockery for a future. As she begins to close in on the truth, the ruthless Vlane—an alpha Fae who makes sex an addiction for human women–closes in on her. And as the boundary between worlds begins to crumble, Mac’s true mission becomes clear: find the elusive Sinsar Dubh before someone else claims the all-powerful Dark Book—because whoever gets to it first holds nothing less than complete control of the very fabric of both worlds in their hands. . . . Look for all of Karen Marie Moning’s sensational Fever novels: DARKFEVER | BLOODFEVER | FAEFEVER | DREAMFEVER | SHADOWFEVER | ICED | BURNED | FEVERBORN | FEVERSONG

Strangers Have Gathered to Weather the Storm Two of the seven seals which imprison the Dark Savior have been broken by the scheming Drake Danvers and his supernaturally gifted team. With a crafty and powerful Dark Wizard aiding them, they have become a force to be reckoned with, now setting their sights on Endoshire, where the seal of Degenerate lies. Aldous the Wizard and his mute cohort Joel worry that a third seal breaking would spell the Dark Savior's eventual return and mankind's doom. They, along with their friends, rush to stop the dark forces, but find that they're heavily outnumbered and underpowered. Out of desperation, they find themselves relying more and more on the help of unfamiliar faces. In this epic confrontation, pirates will carve their name out in legend, Wizards shall create spectacular light shows as they battle, swords will be shattered, friendships will be tested, and scores shall be settled. Along the way, Joel and the others will encounter unthinkable magic, unpredictable rogues, and creatures long thought to be myth. To defeat Drake and his team, however, they will need to find fellowship among strangers!
