Book Description

Captain Redbeard has a penchant for telling tall tales and unlikely stories. So when he and his companions are stranded on a remote African beach, he launches into one of his greatest sagas yet, a compelling account of his younger years-battling pirates, fighting sea serpents, and discovering the legendary Fountain of Yuth. But he had no idea just how important this tale was, that he and others would have an impact not only on the rest of earth's history, but that of the entire galaxy. In this book, you will meet the characters who really mattered in ages past, including: An aquaphobic accountant turned pirate-in-training A dastardly buccaneer bent on discovering El Dorado. A solitary rigger who cherishes his pet lizards. A Xenonite Ciri whose mind is torn between opposing desires. A tiny leprechaun searching for violet. And a wandering Sheek who is about to lose his mind.

Book Description

True love and destiny collide in the conclusion to the Haven trilogy, which Booklist called “a blend of the Gemma Doyle trilogy, the Twilight saga, and Lois Duncan’s thrillers.” Forced to endure the violent punishment of the Tribunal for murders he has no recollection of committing, Aidan is slowly rotting away in a Paris dungeon. Violet is all but an unreachable dream to him now. But unlike Aidan, Violet has not given up hope as she works tirelessly with Matthew, her guardian and protector, to prove Aidan’s innocence and unravel the haunting vision that plagues her thoughts—the death of someone closest to her. Determined to set Aidan free, Violet discovers that a dangerous vampire war is brewing—and that Aidan may be at the center of it all. It’s only when the war reaches the doors of Winterhaven and tragedy strikes the school that Violet has to finally accept her fate. But that could mean losing Aidan—forever. With no other option, Violet must choose between true love and fulfilling her destiny…unless she can find a way to have them both.

In a secret society where human medical experimentation is conducted at any cost... There are bound to be mistakes. Behind the protective walls of the Colony... Layla is growing restless. The Colony is filled with secrets, and James has been keeping her in the dark. So when a woman from her youth opens a crack into her past, Layla discovers everything she believed about the Colony has been a lie—even the baby she carries. Burdened with an unnerving pregnancy and tormented by terrifying hallucinations and blackouts, she sets out to uncover the unspeakable truths inside the Colony's walls. Outside, in the poisoned world... The virus has killed millions and devastated the economy, but investigative reporter Nick Slater is determined to find and expose the illegal biohacking ring that's snatching young people from the impoverished streets.
