Fleeing college pressure, Jules heads home to rest, recharge, and figure out a plan before fall break ends. Eager to spend time with her mother and stepfather, there's one presence she's less thrilled about seeing: Red. The sentient, smirking pitcher of Cherry Chill-Assist Punch was a huge pain in the glass. He'd been getting under her skin for two years now, ever since their parents' wedding day. Red's taste in entertainment and weirdly suggestive commentary were driving her crazy, a destination she was capable of finding all on her own.

Nobody is coming to save me. I've been kidnapped and charged for a crime I didn't commit. To stay alive, I need to convince the King of my worth. But he's my enemy. I come face to face with my captor, the Fae King, and he's as terrifying as he is mesmerizing. His dark hair, chiseled body, and icy blue eyes draw me in, but he's dangerous—especially because I'm a human.

In naher Zukunft schlägt ein Komet auf der Erde ein und löscht die Sonne aus. Auch sieben Jahre später ist die Welt dunkel, eisige Landschaften prägen den nunmehr lebensfeindlichen Planeten. Und dann kamen sie, tierische Kreaturen, die vor nichts zurückschreckten, um die Welt, wie wir sie kannten, zu zerstören.

They stole my throne and stood by while I was taken captive. To reclaim my crown, I must trust my worst enemy. When I wake up in a coffin after the worst Clan wedding in Malhaven’s history, vengeance is the only thing keeping me alive. But the world I claw back into is colder than death. My father, the leader of the Protectorate Clan, is dead. My uncle sits on the throne meant for me. I’ve been taken to a brutal, frozen land ruled by the ruthless Commander, a man as terrifying as he is magnetic.

The Fae King claims me as his own, but a fairytale ending is not in my foreseeable future. Half of the kingdom supports our union. The other half of the kingdom wants to hunt me down. I keep getting visions, and I must run to escape that possible truth. How am I supposed to convince the kingdom I'm not evil? I can't even convince myself.

Betrayed at the altar by the man I love, I don’t have the luxury to mourn my broken heart. The Blood Brotherhood Clan is under attack and dark secrets from my past begin to claw their way to light. Now I must fight beside the man who almost destroyed me. As the merciless prince leads his army on the battlefield, I wage my own war in the treacherous court, where smiles are sharper than blades and words can change the fate of a dynasty. If either of us falters, both of our Clans will be doomed.

When the vicious Blood Brotherhood prince I’ve been hidden from all my life finally comes to claim me at my wedding and kills my heinous groom, he gives me one choice—stay here and take my chances with the unknown force raining poisoned arrows on my ceremony or leave with him as his bride. He’s the man I was raised to fear. He’s the most ruthless warrior in all of Malhaven. Few dare to even speak his name. But with my family’s safety on the line, I choose the unthinkable and agree to become his queen.

A terrible accident wipes Nylah's memory clean. She's thrust into a world where she doesn't know her role or if the Fae surrounding her are being honest. Dex makes her feel safe, and she's told that they once loved each other, but they can never be together. But if she is supposed to love him, why can't she remember anything about him? And why can't they be together? Then, another unexpected event changes the course of her life, and new questions need to be answered.

My enemy claimed me as his own. I must return to Palgia—to the place that was once my prison. The Kingdom of Palgia is fractured, divided, and broken. It's up to me to bring the light back to the country overrun with darkness. Erol was once the ruthless captor who kept me imprisoned. He is set to become the King of Palgia, and I'm expected to cater to his every whim. It doesn't matter that I can't stop thinking about him and imagining what his lips would feel like against mine.

Cloaked with magic and determined to protect the ones I love, I travel to enemy territory to find my answers. But the enemy captures me before I complete my mission.

I must fulfill the prophecy.

Vera is an analyst who wants to find enough time outside of work to learn to love jazz. She can't. Because she's swept up into the world of a secret nation that claims to have guided world events for centuries. Who are they? Why do they think Vera is the key to saving the world? And why do they want to kill her brother?

A plan. A sensible, efficient, and most definitely unrushed plan. Every dwarf has one. Dwarves in general are like rhinos—slow to get going, but unstoppable once they do. The dwarf named Crow is no exception. He has a plan, too: one that is properly thorough, unhurried, and carefully laid out. This is the plan he has been following since the day he arrived at the Gray Peak outpost.

The vicious battle with the gray orcs is over. The outpost of Gray Peak has not surrendered to the enemy. Battered by swords and magic, the orcs have retreated back to their home mountains. The black storm clouds have scattered. But the break promises to be short-the orcs will soon return.

The hardworking dwarf has overcome many hardships. He has clashed with formidable opponents, but managed to protect himself and his domain. However, there is no break in sight. The future is an uphill battle, filled with long hours of blacksmithing and digging, and lots of adventures and surprise encounters. Nobody knows what will happen next. For now, the outpost of Gray Peak continues to hold the fort, with no intention of surrendering to the enemy . . .

At the foot of the foreboding Gray Peak lies a desolate valley. These are the backwoods of the world of Waldyra—they offer nothing valuable to players, who rarely visit as a result. Yet this is the very place where the calm and good-natured dwarf named Crow is headed. Straight after leaving the Creche, he hopes to make a living there. This hero does not crave epic battles with monsters. Quite the contrary. He wants to be a merchant and develop his blacksmithing skills, while staying far away from fighting, long voyages, and clan squabbles.

Noch ahnt keiner der Lockes, wen Bode da aus dem Brunnen befreit hat: Die "Brunnenfrau" ist ein Dämon, dessen Geist dort gefangen gehalten war. Dieser Dämon war es auch, der Sam Lesser damit beauftragt hat, die magischen Schlüssel ausfindig zu machen... Alsbald nimmt die "Brunnenfrau" mithilfe des Geschlechter-Schlüssels die Gestalt eines jungen Mannes an und wird zu Zack. Um an weitere Schlüssel zu kommen, erschleicht sich Zack das Vertrauen von Tyler und Kinsey, den beiden älteren Locke-Geschwistern. Doch ein alter Lehrer an der Schule droht, die Pläne des Dämons zu durchkreuzen: Professor Ridgeway erkennt in Zack seinen ehemaligen Schüler Lukas, der vor Jahren spurlos verschwunden ist.

Noch immer hat keiner der Lockes den Dämon, der als Zack im Keyhouse ein- und ausgeht, enttarnt. Kinsey Locke hat sich sogar in den charmanten Zack verliebt. Die dunkle Kreatur nutzt jede Gelegenheit, um an die magischen Schlüssel zu kommen. Doch einer will verhindern, dass der Dämon in den Besitz weiterer Schlüssel kommt: Der Geist von Sam Lesser ist im Keyhouse gefangen und hat Rache geschworen. Der Mord an ihrem Mann hat Nina Locke völlig aus der Bahn geworfen. Sie ertränkt ihre Sorgen in Alkohol und lädt die Verantwortung auf den Schultern ihrer Kinder Tyler und Kinsey ab.

Bode findet einen weiteren magischen Schlüssel, der Menschen in Tiere verwandeln kann. Doch nicht nur der Locke-Sprössling, sondern auch Zack macht sich die Zauberkraft des Tier-Schlüssels zu Nutze: Er nimmt die Gestalt eines Wolfs an, um Kinsey und Tyler unerkannt zu töten. Zum Glück ist Bode, der sich in einen Spatz verwandelt hat, zur Stelle und greift den Dämon mit einem Spatzenschwarm an. Die Locke-Geschwister werden immer misstrauischer: Wer steckt hinter den sich häufenden Angriffen?

Говорят, что где-то там под этой грудой мусора скрывается дом настоящей ведьмы. Безумной, правда, но это уже мелочи жизни. Подумаешь, тащила выжившая из ума старушка домой всякий магический хлам, которому место на свалке. Это ведь не повод проклинать её до седьмого колена…
