It's illegal for mythical beings and humans to be together. However, laws can be broken. When human Ezekiel is discovered meandering the Elflands, the punishment for such an infringement between the species is certain death. Frantically, he lies to the mythical beings about his true intentions and reasons for being in the Elflands in the hope they will spare his life. A mythical being, Jenilia has zero faith in Ezekiel, not simply because he is human but because he speaks the language of man. In this language, lying is easy, but it is impossible in Elvish, her native tongue. Using her instincts alone, Jenilia decides to allow Ezekiel to live, teach him her native language, and then uncover the truth. Only during their journey together do they realise their true intentions towards each other, which are forbidden by the laws of the land. However, so much more is revealed when Ezekiel stumbles upon a sinister plot that threatens the Elflands and the mythical beings that despise his entire race. The fate of the Elflands is in the palm of his hands. Whichever decision Ezekiel makes affects not only him but Jenilia as well. Will he put his own life at risk to save a race that despises humans? Should he risk everything he's ever known to save the Elflands? You can find out in this fast-paced, thrilling fantasy novel, Mythical.

How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse
Author: K. Eason
Publisher: Astra Publishing House
ISBN: 0756415306
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 365
Book Description
First in a duology that reimagines fairy tale tropes within a space opera—The Princess Bride meets Princess Leia. Rory Thorne is a princess with thirteen fairy blessings, the most important of which is to see through flattery and platitudes. As the eldest daughter, she always imagined she’d inherit her father’s throne and govern the interplanetary Thorne Consortium. Then her father is assassinated, her mother gives birth to a son, and Rory is betrothed to the prince of a distant world. When Rory arrives in her new home, she uncovers a treacherous plot to unseat her newly betrothed and usurp his throne. An unscrupulous minister has conspired to name himself Regent to the minor (and somewhat foolish) prince. With only her wits and a small team of allies, Rory must outmaneuver the Regent and rescue the prince. How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a feminist reimagining of familiar fairytale tropes and a story of resistance and self-determination—how small acts of rebellion can lead a princess to not just save herself, but change the course of history.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
With Waypoint Kangaroo, Chen makes his debut with this outer space thriller. Kangaroo isn’t your typical spy. Sure, he has extensive agency training, access to bleeding-edge technology, and a ready supply of clever (to him) quips and retorts. But what sets him apart is “the pocket.” It’s a portal that opens into an empty, seemingly infinite, parallel universe, and Kangaroo is the only person in the world who can use it. But he's pretty sure the agency only keeps him around to exploit his superpower. After he bungles yet another mission, Kangaroo gets sent away on a mandatory “vacation:” an interplanetary cruise to Mars. While he tries to make the most of his exile, two passengers are found dead, and Kangaroo has to risk blowing his cover. It turns out he isn’t the only spy on the ship–and he’s just starting to unravel a massive conspiracy which threatens the entire Solar System. Now, Kangaroo has to stop a disaster which would shatter the delicate peace that’s existed between Earth and Mars ever since the brutal Martian Independence War. A new interplanetary conflict would be devastating for both sides. Millions of lives are at stake. Weren’t vacations supposed to be relaxing?
