Book Description
Percy Jackson meets Tristan Strong in this hilarious middle grade “edge-of-your-seat adventure” (James Ponti, New York Times bestselling author of City Spies) that follows a young boy as he journeys across China to seal the underworld shut and save the mortal realm. Zachary Ying never had many opportunities to learn about his Chinese heritage. His single mom was busy enough making sure they got by, and his schools never taught anything except Western history and myths. So Zack is woefully unprepared when he discovers he was born to host the spirit of the First Emperor of China for a vital mission: sealing the leaking portal to the Chinese underworld before the upcoming Ghost Month blows it wide open. The mission takes an immediate wrong turn when the First Emperor botches his attempt to possess Zack’s body and binds to Zack’s AR gaming headset instead, leading to a battle where Zack’s mom’s soul gets taken by demons. Now, with one of history’s most infamous tyrants yapping in his headset, Zack must journey across China to heist magical artifacts and defeat figures from history and myth, all while learning to wield the emperor’s incredible water dragon powers. And if Zack can’t finish the mission in time, the spirits of the underworld will flood into the mortal realm, and he could lose his mom forever.

Book Description
A 2022 MARY HIGGINS CLARK AWARD Nominee In this Avery Ayers Antique Mystery series debut, perfect for fans of Ellery Adams and Jane K. Cleland, an antiques appraiser hunts a missing gem while probing her parents' deaths. After her parents' deaths, Avery Ayers takes over the family business, Antiquities & Artifacts Appraised, from the home office in Lilac Grove and a branch in Manhattan. Now living back at home with her younger sister Tilly and their newly moved-in, eccentric Aunt Midge and her Afghan hound, Avery's life is filled with jewels, tapestries, paintings, and rare finds. But their world is rocked when Avery learns that the theft of a priceless ruby may be connected to her parents' demise. The trouble starts when the Museum of Antiquities hires Avery to appraise a rare, resplendent ruby. It bears a striking similarity to a solitary stone in the museum's prized Xiang Dynasty bejeweled dragon medallion exhibit, which has long been missing one of its ruby eyes. Now, Avery and her colleagues--ostentatious Sir Robert Lane and fatherly Micah Abbott--suspect they may have the missing gem. But facets of the case remain cloudy. Security guard Art Smith is always underfoot but is not what he appears. Another body turns up connected to the appraisal. And Avery receives mysterious notes that begin to put her life in danger. Avery enlists possible ally Art's help in cutting the list of suspects who might have polished off her parents and swiped the jewel. Was it art collector Oliver Renell? Curator Nate Brennan? Acquisitions Liaison Francesca Giolitti? Actor Tyler Chadwick? Was the crime impersonal or perpetrated by someone all too close to Avery? If she can't find the culprit, lovely Lilac Grove may be the setting for Avery's own death.

Publisher: Jaymi Hanako
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 536
Book Description
The most dangerous thing for a dragon... is to fall in love. That's what their father taught them, but for each of the brothers, they'll find that love isn't something that can be controlled, and it's also worth fighting for. This boxed set includes the first four books of the Heart of a Fire Dragon series. The Dragon and the Queen of Ice (Book One) Blinded and cursed to freeze from the inside out, Queen Kyra knows that only falling in love might cure her. She doesn’t have time for that. As the last in her line, she must produce an heir to keep her kingdom from falling into chaos. But no human can touch her without risk of frostbite. The solution? Marry a dragon. Hidden Magic (Book Two) No one told Seira she was engaged to a dragon. That was why she fell for the lies of an imposter and nearly lost her life. Though unsure how she broke the sorcerer’s spell, doing so gained her the loyalty of a band of dread-trolls. The ancient enemies of the dragon she is meant to marry. Of course, the dragon isn’t exactly what he first appears to be either. Rergyn shifts into the most handsome man that she’s ever seen. His touch sets her body on fire, but she is not about to trust him, especially when she learns he has a few secrets of his own. Stolen Dragons (Book Three) Permanently injured and unable to take to the air after an ‘accident,’ Aldriss lives on the edges of her former life. Shunned by society and considered unworthy of any task. But she won’t let that stop her from searching for a high-born dragon youth who disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Her quest becomes even more complicated when she encounters a fire-dragon searching for his younger brother. Tyndarr is handsome, well-connected, and everything she can no longer aspire to have in her life. He’s convinced that she is meant to be his mate. Aldriss cannot resist the temptation to surrender to the desire that burns hot between them, though she knows it cannot last forever… Guardian of the Mist Dragon (Book Four) Stealing her father’s armor was the easy part. Now alone and confronted by mercenaries, Lin must defend a rare mist dragon’s egg. Just as she is badly wounded, a strange dragon drops out of the sky, breathing fire and scattering her enemies. Then the creature’s massive talons wrap around her body, and he carries her away… The Heart of a Fire Dragon series was previously published as the Fire Dragons of Grieghern series by Amber Jantine. Each book has been revised and edited from its earlier version.
