Siren Daughter
To save myself, I bargain with the gods. To save my family, I bet my own life. Sirens were once known for irresistible songs. Yet centuries after our ancestor’s exile, we’re like every other creature in the Akri Sea—unremarkable, forgotten, mortal. When famine sweeps through the sea and drags my mother to the realm of the dead, I refuse to be like the rest of my kind. I refuse to die forgotten. To change my fate, I journey to the city of the gods. To gain immortality, I bargain with god-king Zeus in his gilded palace. And with the aid of a deity whose smoldering eyes pull emotions out of me I never thought possible, I might just succeed in the three trials to come. I’ll risk anything for immortality. But when an opportunity presents itself, will I risk everything to save my family? If you like Greek mythology, slow-burn romance, and legendary creatures, you’ll love Siren Daughter, the first book in an enthralling fantasy trilogy.

Weaving a compelling story of scandal, service, and opportunity, Patrick Cox and Michael Phillips describe the divisions within the traditional Democratic Party, the ascendance of Republicans, and...
Carmer and Grit, Book Two: The Crooked Castle
Carmer and Grit investigate a mysteriously magical flying circus in the follow-up to“a fun and frolicking middle grade adventure full of enough fantasy, humor and heart to make giddy even the most finicky reader.” (BookPage) Shortly after saving the faeries of Skemantis, magician’s apprentice Felix Carmer III and his faerie companion, Grit, head out to see the world. They soon come across a mysteriously magical flying circus. As they get to know the outlandish world of Rinka Tinka’s Roving Wonder Show, it becomes clear there's something not quite normal about this circus or its inventor–and that recent airship disasters plaguing nearby Driftside City may have a sinister explanation. Fans of the Wildwood trilogy and Lockwood & Co. series will love the thrills and chills of Carmer and Grit, Book 2: The Crooked Castle as it takes readers up in the air with a flying circus, under the sea to the evil Unseelie kingdom, through a terrifying magical snowstorm, and on a chase with the menacing Wild Hunt.

Mosca Mye and Eponymous Clent are in trouble again. Escaping disaster by the skin of their teeth, they find refuge in Toll, the strange gateway town where visitors may neither enter nor leave without paying a price. By day, the city is well-mannered and orderly; by night, it's the haunt of rogues and villains. Wherever there's a plot, there's sure to be treachery, and wherever there's treachery, there's sure to be trouble – and where there's trouble, Clent, Mosca and the web-footed apocalypse Saracen the goose can't be far behind. But as past deeds catch up with them and old enemies appear, it looks as if this time there's no way out . . . 'Everyone should read Frances Hardinge. Everyone. Right now' - Patrick Ness, author of A Monster Calls.
