Magical tracker and thief Tara Knightley fought for and won her freedom -- or did she? It seemed like life was taking a turn for the better when Tara finally broke free from her blood oath with Fae mob boss Grant Shaw. But as much as Tara wants to be done with Faerie, she can't walk away yet because a bigger battle still looms ahead, and she has a very personal stake in the outcome.

If O'Malley and the Unseelie win, Tara's Fae family will be lost forever. The Seelie alliance wants her help to ensure the Unseelie fail. If she joins their cause, she might have the chance to know her Fae father and half-brother and finally mend the fractured parts of herself. But if the cause fails, she'll lose the freedom she's worked so hard for . . . and possibly her life. A battle for freedom, an insider betrayal, and Tara's final chance to understand who she really is. Don't miss this epic final book in the Tara Knightley series!

Book Description

During the Silent Era, when most films dealt with dramatic or comedic takes on the "boy meets girl, boy loses girl" theme, other motion pictures dared to tackle such topics as rejuvenation, revivication, mesmerism, the supernatural and the grotesque. A Daughter of the Gods (1916), The Phantom of the Opera (1925), The Magician (1926) and Seven Footprints to Satan (1929) were among the unusual and startling films containing story elements that went far beyond the realm of "highly unlikely." Using surviving documentation and their combined expertise, the authors catalog and discuss these departures from the norm in this encyclopedic guide to American horror, science fiction and fantasy in the years from 1913 through 1929.

Book Description

Will Poppy has always been fascinated with writing - he thinks there’s something almost... magical about it. But when his mother passes away, Will finds himself stuck living with his awful aunt, unable to write a single word (despite the fact that two Muses will not leave him alone), and handed a mysterious package which includes an old picture of his grandparents and a piece of cloth with the words "The Griffin of Darkwood" on it. When his aunt decides to move both of them to a small village, Will is excited for a new adventure, and in a castle no less! But after a rude welcome to the town that includes stories about a curse, and an introduction to the servants of the castle who evidently mean to cause him harm, Will’s sense of dread about the whole village rises. What is the curse the villagers all claim has been on the castle for hundreds of years, and what does it have to do with the disappearance of a young girl forty years ago? More importantly, what’s The Griffin of Darkwood, and what does it have to do with Will and his family?

Book Description

Works of science fiction and fantasy increasingly explore gender issues, feature women as central characters, and are written by women writers. This book examines women's contributions to science fiction and fantasy across a range of media and genres, such as fiction, nonfiction, film, television, art, comics, graphic novels, and music. The first volume offers survey essays on major topics, such as sexual identities, fandom, women's writing groups, and feminist spirituality; the second provides alphabetically arranged entries on more specific subjects, such as Hindu mythology, Toni Morrison, magical realism, and Margaret Atwood. Entries are written by expert contributors and cite works for further reading, and the set closes with a selected, general bibliography. Students and general readers love science fiction and fantasy. And science fiction and fantasy works increasingly explore gender issues, feature women as central characters, and are written by women writers. Older works demonstrate attitudes toward women in times past, while more recent works grapple with contemporary social issues. This book helps students use science fiction and fantasy to understand the contributions of women writers, the representation of women in the media, and the experiences of women in society.

Book Description

Being a supernatural bounty hunter requires more smarts than magic. Which is lucky for me since my magic is about as good as a leaky cauldron. When my latest client--a kleptomaniac werewolf--disappears, I'm on the hunt to drag him to justice. It should be a simple track 'em and cuff 'em operation, something I've done a hundred times before. Instead, I somehow acquire a vampire sidekick, wake up in a ditch, and piss off shifter nation. It's not fun, but it's all survivable right up until I'm accused of being in cahoots with my skip trace to steal Witchdom's most wanted magical relic. Suddenly smart isn't nearly enough to stay alive. Stephanie Plum hijinks meets Twilight's vampires and werewolves. All the fun, twice the fangs. Full length novel. Editorial Reviews "Sylvie is a wisecracking witch with a sense of humor who makes the reader want to root for her from the first page." IndTale Reviews "Fun. Funny. Sassy.
