Why do you make such a mess when you're cooking? Will you ever stop nagging me about the hoovering? When did you last help the kids with their homework? I did the shopping like you asked, but you're still giving me that look. While it's often women doing more than men, inequality and arguments about fairness can upset the lives of couples of every stripe and flavour. Sometimes it's just annoying, sometimes it can feel much, much worse. Repeating the same arguments over and over doesn't change anything.

When we hear people talk about being present, many of us remember raising our hands in elementary school in response to roll call. Paul, CFO of Gladsen Manufacturing, saw it pretty much the same way. He felt that being present at work simply meant he was in the room for one of many gatherings and slide show presentations. Overall, he thought of himself as a present dad, husband, and executive, but was he really? In an attempt to support his son’s theatrical ambitions, Paul takes an acting class and learns that presence is a whole lot more than he thought it was.

He saw the play. He knew the throw. He didn't act. In Bellmere, football isn't just a game—it's certainty. And Jake Halvorsen is the one person everyone trusts to deliver it. Calm. Precise. Unshakable. Until something changes. It starts as a delay no one else can see. A fraction of a second between knowing and doing.

As King David’s reign nears its end, his eldest son, Joseph, is destined to inherit the throne, while his younger brother, Raymond, devotes himself to understanding the villagers—walking among them, listening to their struggles and hopes, and earning their trust. When a black raven appears before the king, he takes it as an omen of death and decides to divide his kingdom between his two sons. Aware that such a decision may cause conflict, Raymond—though wiser and more suited to rule—humbly asks that Joseph reign alone.

The Wave nearly ended Tahama. No one knows why it happened. Someone has to find out. A deep patrol Crawler rolls into the Pale. Small crew. Dangerous mission. Mars volunteers without explaining himself, not to the crew, not to anyone. The old world is still down there, broken and buried and full of things that used to be people. That's expected. What isn't: something is organizing those things. Not everyone comes home.

In the realm of gaming sensation The Gates of TirNiki, Earl Hail Jeoran just might be the best of both worlds. His father was a Traveler, or player, and his mother was an NPC. As a result, he's a native player character, with abilities and potential beyond imagining . . . which is how he landed in his own personal holosuite jail. Apparently, when in-game threats lead to real-life violence, people can get sort of touchy.

The thousand-year-old Imperium era is drawing to a close, and the threat of war and violence hangs over the land. With no magic or wealth, Lansius has to face this new reality on his own. Well, mostly. The squire Stefi is at his side as he leaves his new home to march with young Lord Arte against the invaders. When Lansius is separated from Stefi and their liege, he faces his greatest challenge yet: taking command of a ragtag group of misfits as they battle to save their people. And as he reluctantly climbs the ranks of power, others flock to his banner seeking glory or safety.

Following the guidance of a mysterious blue prompt, Sylas journeys to the town of Ember Hollow to breathe new life into a quaint local pub. Along the way, he meets a clever apothecary named Mira, who helps him acclimate to the ins and outs of the realm, and Patches, a corpulent cat who’s slightly . . . shall we say, unusual. Dubbing the pub “The Old Lamplighter,” Sylas hopes it will be a safe haven for other weary souls. Of course, it doesn’t feel that safe when the prompt reappears with a warning: [You have 89 days until the invasion.]

In the game world of The Gates of TirNiki, Earl Hail Jeoran has just been killed. Luckily, his very nature as a native player character and avatar of a god makes this a minor detail. All he has to do is reboot himself and he's back in action. But that doesn't mean he's immortal—and someone is about to put that fact to the test. Although Hail would be perfectly happy remaining an earl/adventurer, he's been drawn into a lethal contest for the throne of Yuikon. Meanwhile, an enigmatic enemy is systematically assassinating other members of the royal line.

For Prince Hail Teoran, there's never been a greater hero than his own father, a true living legend who came through the gates with his fellow Travelers years ago to rescue the continent of Lagrea from the forces of darkness. Unfortunately, when the young prince actually meets his dad for the first time, he turns out to be, well, a total jerkweed. Naturally, Hail is crushed. That is, until he's visited by a seemingly all-powerful administrator who explains that Hail, his mother, and everyone in their world are part of a game the Travelers are constantly playing.
