Book Description

The Chaos Portal is a source of strange, dark power that sits deep within a cave on the edge of a remote town. It is guarded by an elite group of stalwart protectors who have been tasked with preventing the portal’s power from spilling over into the outside world. Cordelia, a young woman from the town, whose parents mysteriously disappeared into the portal while providing supplies to the guardians one day, befriends the youngest of the guardians, a man named Dormholt. Over time, he becomes a mentor to her, training her in combat and teaching her the ways of the world. However, one day she goes to visit Dormholt, only to find him and other guardians missing and the portal growing in size and power. Not only that, but the people in her town also seem to have completely forgotten that the portal ever existed. With time running out, she sets off on a journey to find Dormholt and the other guardians before the malevolent powers within the portal engulf her town and the rest of the world . . . forever.

Book Description

A group of thirteen-year-old shapeshifters are sent on a rescue mission to the thirteenth floor of a highrise building where something terrible lurks. The people of Old Earth are busy rebuilding their towns and cities, putting industries back to work, and forging new communities, all the while getting to know their newfound neighbors-a parallel world full of mythical creatures, magic, and wonder! But magic isn't always good. Sometimes it's downright evil. In a newly restored city, something disturbing has happened in an office building. People have vanished without trace, and rescue teams can't get past a pack of deadly hellhounds. The situation is well beyond Old Earth's capabilities, and the authorities request the help of Miss Simone and her team of shapeshifters. With Friday 13th coming up in a few days, is it too much to hope that luck will be their side?

Book Description

It's been six months since I died on Earth and was brought to the Kingdom of Craesti. In that time, I've made friends, gained a family, and begun learning how to gather and channel Aether, a.k.a. magic. I started attending Azyl Academy, the premier magic school of the city, after it was discovered that my talent was exceptionally high. I am learning Alchemy, Inscription, and how to fight, all with the goal of expanding the Kingdom and keeping the populace safe. It hasn't all been smooth sailing, though. I made an enemy of one of the local noble Clans, and just survived an assassination attempt thanks to one of the guardian Beasts of the Academy I have a budding friendship with. Now I have to recover from my injuries and continue to advance. Coming soon will be our ranking tournament, where we will compete within our tiers to see who is the strongest. After the tournament, we will be divided into teams and go on an expedition into the Great Western Forest to cull Beasts and harvest rare plants. Throughout all of this, though, my focus is on getting stronger; to be ready for the calamity I was warned about by Darkness, the deity that brought me here. I just hope I have enough time.

Jesus Christ and his angels can make human beings experience ectoplasm and can possess you in broad daylight and at night. Any spirit or deity that can shift-shape himself into anything like a fog, smoke, fire, clouds, insects, people or animals is considered not human, suspicious, unknown, scary, sneaky, secretive, and evil.

Book Description

A witch named Abby and her three friends—a wolf-girl, a ghost, and a pumpkinhead—band together to try and save their supernatural town from an invasion of rabid (but adorable!) chaos bunnies in this enchanting middle-grade graphic novel for fans of Making Friends, The Okay Witch, and Lumberjanes. It’s fall break in the supernatural town of North Haven, and young witch Abby’s plans include pitching in at her mom’s magical coffee shop, practicing her potion making, and playing board games with her best friends—a pumpkinhead, a wolf-girl, and a ghost. But when Abby finds her younger sister being picked on by some speed demons, she lets out a burst of magic so strong, it opens a portal to a realm of chaos bunnies. And while these bunnies may look cute, they’re about to bring the a-hop-ocalypse (and get Abby in a cauldronful of trouble) unless she figures out a way to reverse the powerful magic she unwittingly released. What’s a witch to do? In this deliciously humorous, cozy, and bewitching graphic novel, sometimes the most of powerful magic comes from our connections to family and friends (but kicking bunny butt is great, too).
