Cassim ist ein Verräter. Um sich und die anderen Drachenwandler aus der grausamen Herrschaft des Königs von Eldeya zu befreien, schreckt er vor keinem Verbrechen zurück. Auch seine Reiterin Yessa war für ihn nur ein Mittel zum Zweck. Doch aus der einstigen Feindin ist längst mehr geworden, und seine Liebe zu ihr könnte ihn nun alles kosten. Bleibt er bei ihr, riskiert er sein Leben. Verlässt er...

Cassim und Yessa haben versagt. Der Versuch, Yessas Eltern zu retten, ist gescheitert und hat zu ihrer Gefangennahme geführt. Nun bestimmt Eldeyas König über ihr Schicksal – und seine Pläne sind an Grausamkeit kaum zu übertreffen. Erst viel zu spät wird ihnen klar, was sie riskiert haben. Nicht nur ihre eigenen Leben stehen auf dem Spiel, sondern Tausende. Denn Cassim ist kein gewöhnlicher...

Ich bin das lebende Symbol der Macht von König Midas. Die Macht, alles in Gold zu verwandeln, was er berührt. Für Außenstehende bin ich nur seine goldene Hure, aber für Midas bin ich mehr. Ich war schon bei ihm, bevor er König wurde. Ich war bei ihm, als wir nur einander hatten. Er hat mir damals versprochen, dass er für meine Sicherheit sorgen würde. Und das hat er getan. Obwohl ich meine...

Most schools are about being the best. This school? It’s about being the worst. Calder Academy is where the rogue paranormals go. The ones who break the rules or lose control. And when that happens for vamps, werewolves, witches, and dark fae? It gets pretty freaking scary._x000D_

After Katmere, I shouldn’t be surprised by anything. Including the existence of a world beyond my world called the Shadow Realm. Yet here I am, stuck in a strange, dangerous place with the worst of the supernaturals, the monster that other monsters fear: Hudson Vega. He might be Jaxon’s brother and ridiculously hot, but he’s a complete bona fide pain in my ass.

‘You are not respectful enough to your king,’ he said hoarsely, looming over me, ‘and you deserve punishment.’ I ran away from my home to be with my lover. And he lost me at dice. This was the price I paid for my recklessness, a cruel lesson. In a world where lust and passion are the source of power, I became a bargaining chip. There is no justice here, only law, which tries to protect people...

In the wake of the Kejari, everything Oraya once thought to be true has been destroyed. A prisoner in her own kingdom, grieving the only family she ever had, and reeling from a gutting betrayal, she no longer even knows the truth of her own blood. She’s left only with one certainty: she cannot trust anyone, least of all Raihn.

Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth, first in The Locked Tomb Trilogy, unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap off the page, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a...

Evie Sage has never been happier to be the assistant to The Villain. Who would have thought that working for an outrageously handsome (shhh, bad for his brand) evil overlord would be so rewarding? Still, the business of being bad is demanding, the forces of good are annoyingly persistent, and said forbidding boss is somewhat…er, out-of-evil-office. But Rennedawn is in grave trouble, and all...

The tale of Beren and Lúthien was, or became, an essential element in the evolution of The Silmarillion, the myths and legends of the First Age of the World conceived by J.R.R. Tolkien. Returning from France and the battle of the Somme at the end of 1916, he wrote the tale in the following year.

It is a legendary time in the First Age of Middle-earth, long before The Lord of the Rings, and Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwells in the vast fortress of Angband in the North; and within the shadow of the fear of Angband, and the war waged by Morgoth against the Elves, the fates of Túrin and his sister Niënor will be tragically entwined.

Never before published in a single volume, Tolkien’s four novellas (Farmer Giles of Ham, Leaf by Niggle, Smith of Wootton Major, and Roverandom) and one book of poems (The Adventures of Tom Bombadil) are gathered together for the first time, in a fully illustrated volume. This definitive collection of works -- which had appeared separately, in various formats, between 1949 and 1998 -- comes...
