Book Description
There is a secret society that presides over every world. This society is so powerful that it can control a nation, strike fear into the bravest of men and bring turmoil onto the most unsuspecting of victims. . . .There is a dangerous society in Seoul that is plaguing Choi Yoori. Her world is turned upside down when she is told that she bears a strong resemblance to the "Queen of the Underworld," a notorious Underworld crime lord who died 3 years prior - the exact same time Yoori woke up with amnesia. The dangers of this new world is crashing in on her and Yoori's only grip on stability lies with the guidance from her crime lord boss and the secrets the Queen of the Underworld hid from her powerful society. Welcome to a world where "Gods" walk amongst humans. Where the heartless and vengeful are revered like Kings and Queens - and the weak, the distracted are punished without mercy. It is a cruel world and once you're in, the only exit is death.

Book Description
Perpetual scaredy-cat Conor O'Neill has the fright of his life when a banshee girl named Ashling shows up in his bedroom. Ashling is--as all banshees are--a harbinger of death, but she's new at this banshee business, and first she insists on going to middle school. As Conor attempts to hide her identity from his teachers, he realizes he's going to have to pay a visit to the underworld if he wants to keep his family safe. "Got your cell?" "Yeah . . . . Don't see what good it'll do me." "I'll text you if anything happens that you should know." "Text me? Javier, we'll be in the afterlife." "You never know. Maybe they get a signal." Discover why Kirkus has called Booraem's work "utterly original American fantasy . . . frequently hysterical." This totally fresh take on the afterlife combines the kid next door appeal of Percy Jackson with the snark of Artemis Fowl and the heart of a true middle grade classic.

Book Description
The Dirty Harold is a book of a lifetime...it may not take a lifetime to fully read it, but to grasp it...but maybe you get it as soon as you can say Jack Robinson, even if Jack Robinson is new to you.So you can rely on the fact that the Ultra-Short Stories in this book change your perspective on short stories and not only on short stories, as long stories just take too much time to fully read them in our restless times. This much The Dirty Harold can tell you, as his Ultra-Short Stories are loaded with dynamite, sometimes shimmering, sometimes humorous, sometimes bizarre, and sometimes just dynamite, but always something to think about. Welcome to the Underworld of Literature!

Book Description
Lucifer's here. And he's pissed. Lucifer has descended on Fortune Academy Underworld a whole five days early-leave it to Cole to be a big fat liar about his timetable. He wasn't lying about Lucifer's secret weapon, though, and the truth will take us all for a ride. Olivia is my best friend and she has a past almost as dark as mine, one even she's not ready to remember and one Lucifer is ready to exploit. I want to help her through all of this, but two of my newest Virtues are trapped in the pit, the lowest level of Hell and Lucifer's territory. Getting to them will prove harder than we thought. Lucifer's weapon is bleeding through the realms and if he gets his way, Purgatory will be forever destroyed-and my Virtues with it. The race starts now. Fortune Academy Underworld is Book 5 in a NA paranormal academy romance series with fated mates where there's no choosing required. As this is a series, there will be a cliffhanger. It is recommended to read "Seven Sins" and "The Vampire Curse" before reading this novel for the best experience since there is cross-over of reoccurring characters and events.
