Book Description
A blind mage teams up with an unlikely ally to save a friend and the world in this quasi-Renaissance epic fantasy adventure by the author of The Soul Mirror. Indicted for crimes against the living and the dead, Dante the necromancer has become the most hated man in Sabria. Becoming blind by his enemy’s cruel vengeance only exacerbates his situation.

Then a retired soldier, haunted by powerful dreams, seeks out Dante’s help. Seeing a magical puzzle to solve and a chance to redeem himself, Dante offers his services—even though he senses the man’s plea hides something far more sinister.

Book Description
A scientific young woman probes the mysterious death of her magically gifted sister in this quasi-Renaissance epic fantasy sequel to The Spirit Lens. Anne de Vernase is fighting to hold herself together as scandal and tragedy tear her family apart. Her father remains at large, convicted of treason and murder thanks to her own testimony—and his pursuit of depraved sorcery. Her mother has gone insane, and her brother is a prisoner. Her sister, a talented sixth-year student at the Collegia Magica, has recently died under mysterious circumstances. And now the man she despises, Portier de Savin-Duplais, arrives with a foreboding summons from her godfather, the king. Once in Merona, Anne finds herself in a city besieged by dark sorcery and in a royal court full of treacherous machinations. Disturbing rumors surround the queen’s volatile sorcerer, while the queen’s mother is waging a manipulative game. And when a killer strikes, Anne questions what really happened to her sister. With no talent for magic and few allies to protect her, Anne begins a perilous search for the truth that will shake up a kingdom . . . “A compelling and altogether admirable work.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “Lavish. . . . Berg’s characters return to vivid life. . . . Berg refreshes and reinvigorates the familiar trappings of epic fantasy, shaping a novel that rings true both linguistically and imaginatively. This is one to savor.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Berg brings life and grace to a story of magic and politics that should appeal to the author’s fans as well as lovers of Renaissance-style fantasy.” —Library Journal “A novel that stakes an early claim to my Top 10 list of 2011. . . . Traditional fantasy does not get better than this!” —Fantasy Book Critic

Book Description
New York Times bestselling author Daniel Suarez imagines a chilling future where technological advances are held hostage by the government in this thriller that perfectly blends “nail-biting suspense with accessible science” (Publishers Weekly). Physicist Jon Grady and his team have discovered a device that can reflect gravity—a triumph that will revolutionize the field of physics and change the future. But instead of acclaim, Grady’s lab is locked down by a covert organization known as the Bureau of Technology Control. The bureau’s mission: suppress the truth of sudden technological progress and prevent the social upheaval it would trigger. Because the future is already here. And it’s rewards are only for a select few. When Grady refuses to join the BTC, he’s thrown into a nightmarish high-tech prison housing other doomed rebel intellects. Now, as the only hope to usher humanity out of its artificial dark age, Grady and his fellow prisoners must try to expose the secrets of an unimaginable enemy—one that wields a technological advantage half a century in the making.

Book Description
A rebellious sorcerer risks it all to save his protégé, deliver justice, and protect his kingdom in this finale of the epic fantasy adventure duology. As civil war and winter lay waste to Navronne, Valen finds himself in high demand. The young monk is currently bound in service to a prince who steals dead soldiers’ eyes and souls. There’s also a fanatical Harrower priestess hellbent on destroying the world. The fairylike Danae guardians are after him as well. And he must also worry about the Pureblood Registry, always eager to maintain their control of every pureblood sorcerer. Torn between evil forces and fighting his addiction, Valen must risk body and soul to rescue one child, seek justice for another, and restore the rightful king to the dying land. With few he can trust, Valen ventures from monasteries to dungeons to the very heart of the world. In the twilight of a legend, he discovers some hard truths about his world . . . and about his past. The two books of the Lighthouse Duet—Flesh and Spirit and Breath and Bone—jointly received the 2009 Mythopoeic Fantasy Award “The narrative crackles with intensity against a vivid backdrop of real depth and conviction, with characters to match. Altogether superior.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “The sequel to Flesh and Spirit builds upon the first book’s events and illuminates the complex intrigues that mark the land of Navronne. Berg’s lush, evocative storytelling and fully developed characters add up to a first-rate purchase for most fantasy collections.” —Library Journal “Berg has once again given us a fantasy that is full of wonder, intrigue and marvelous characters. Valen is a beautifully flawed hero.” —SFRevu

Book Description
In a world filled with charlatans, Lucinda "Lucky" de Salle's psychic ability has always made her an outcast, even as it has also made her a sought-after (if reluctant) investigator of paranormal phenomena. With no remaining family and very few friends, she has only one "person" she can rely on--Kayla, the ghost girl who has been her constant companion since she was born. When Lucky is called in to investigate a spectral disturbance at the all-girls school she attended as a child, she isn't surprised. She herself had had a terrifying confrontation with the troubled spirits of two girls who died in the attic room. But when Lucky goes up to the attic, she discovers that the vicious little girls are the least of the problem--a demon has been released into this world, a creature of such malevolence that even the spirits of the two girls are afraid. When the demon demands that Kayla be handed over to him, Lucky realizes that this case will be like no other she has ever experienced. For one thing, it seems that her chatty, snarky spirit companion is not what she has always seemed to be...
