With a little magic and a lot of luck, Tim broke the contract and set them both free. Now he’s trying to be a superhero, learning the hard way that you can’t save everybody, and some problems are too big to punch. He thought he had managed to flip the script and beat Hell at its own game, but demons are patient, and all debts eventually come due.

Add in a dangerously sexy vampire who’s shadowing her every move, and things are spiraling from bad to cursed.

And then daddy dearest enters stage left. So, I met my father. I beat the crap out of him, but I haven’t killed him yet. Yet being the operative word. I still haven’t made up my mind about that. I had my to-do list before I broke out of Scorchwood and killing him was a major part of my big kill list. I mean, the man framed me, sent me to prison in Hell, then had a mad warlock experiment on me. So, now we are uneasy allies. The fate of two realms is resting on my shoulders. That doesn’t mean I might not still decide to kill him if we manage to pull this off.

Things are going badly for the Clan in this new SF novel of the Merchant Princes, the immensely popular series by Charles Stross. Locked in a vicious civil war for control over the kingdom of Niejwein, their army is bottled up inside a fortress under siege in two parallel universes at once. Duke Angbard, the Clan's leader, has been laid low by a stroke: plotters are already conspiring in readiness for the deadly dance to come.

Chimps, nukes, what could go wrong? It seemed like a good idea at the time: train chimpanzees to fly planes to deliver nuclear bombs. We’d just won the biggest war the world had ever seen, so why not? The project was going really well, right up to the moment that it wasn’t. In June of 1947, a mysterious aircraft crashed on a ranch outside of Roswell, New Mexico, and over the years, many have speculated about what (and who) it might have been. But now, now you’ll learn the truth. Maybe.

Ella is tired of crying. She's more powerful than ever before, but her personal life has the wow factor of vanilla ice cream.

King Cullin may be known as "the Dragon Slayer", but he fears his son’s legacy will be as "King Maurice Who Speaks with Proper Grammar".

Tonight, though, Cullin will educate the prince in the truth behind minstrels’ silly songs of glory….

Part two of Unfinished Business finds Connor back in King Henry's service. Tucked inside King Louis XII's safe are the blueprints for modern war machines designed by master engineer Leonardo da Vinci. Conner is charged with the delicate and quite illegal task of stealing them back before the French monarch and his military advisers have the opportunity to produce those war machines, which would result in tipping the balance of power in the region.

Book two (parts 1 & 2) of this eight-part series focuses on the characters who are rough around the edges: Connor Holden and the fiery Irish physician, Reagan O'Riley. Both characters introduced in book one, The Beginning, have come back together in a dynamic love story full of misunderstanding, deception, and ultimately forgiveness. The growth they experience through the journey comes at a great cost, as is usually the case when lessons are learned the hard way.

Join former scamp Cullin and his merry band of confidence men (and one liberated princess) as they put The Sting in the Middle Ages. With dreams of being a hero, or at least a storyteller, Cullin travels with Sir Dalbry, a washed-up knight in shining armor; Reeger, ready and eager for any part of the dirty work; and Affonyl, former princess, who wanted to study science and alchemy, rather than embroidery.

Но Аресу и этого показалось мало, раз он сделал мне предложение руки и сердца. О, Вездесущий! Я таю! Не представляла как-то себя в роли счастливой невесты… Стоп! Лучше бы на время выбросить из головы все чувства и подумать об испытании во дворце. Император, блондинистая черноглазая зараза, очень сильный менталист. Что будет, если он раскусит преступницу?
