Mosca è in preda alle fiamme, e per salvarsi Vasja deve fuggire via, inseguita da tutti coloro che la accusano di morte e distruzione. Raggiunge così il regno della Mezzanotte, una terra magica fatta di ogni mezzanotte passata, presente e futura. Ma rimanere lì sarebbe una condanna a morte per tutta la sua famiglia e per le sue terre... Intanto il Gran Principe di Mosca è in preda alla rabbia e alla frustrazione, e sceglie alleati che lo condurranno su un percorso di guerra e rovina.

Deina la Dissociante a découvert sa véritable identité, tout comme son véritable amour. Mais pour sauver ceux qu’elle aime, elle s’est sacrifiée, et les Enfers sont désormais sa nouvelle demeure. Chez les mortels, l’infâme Aristée s’est proclamé nouveau souverain de Thèbes, à la place de son roi légitime : Theron. Et il est déterminé à retrouver les Dissociants en fuite pour régner en maître absolu.

Deina est une Passeuse d’âmes au service du dieu Hadès sur Terre. Sa tâche est de guider les mourants hors du monde des mortels. Un jour, le tyran Orphée est en visite à Athènes. Il fait alors une dangereuse mais tentante proposition : il rendra sa liberté à celui qui pourra libérer Eurydice du monde souterrain et la ramener à lui...

Orfana e sola, costretta ad abbandonare il suo villaggio, Vasja dovrà rassegnarsi a trascorrere la vita in un convento o a permettere alla sorella maggiore di darla in sposa a un principe moscovita. Entrambe le strade la condannano a una vita in una torre, tagliata fuori dal vasto mondo che invece desidera esplorare. Così sceglie una terza via: travestendosi da ragazzo cavalca attraverso il bosco per sfuggire a un destino che altri hanno scritto per lei. A Mosca, intanto, la corte imperiale è scossa da lotte di potere e tumulti.

In uno sperduto villaggio ai confini della tundra russa, l'inverno dura la maggior parte dell'anno e i cumuli di neve crescono più alti delle case. Ma a Vasilisa e ai suoi fratelli non importa, perché adorano trascorrere le notti riuniti accanto al fuoco, ascoltando le fiabe della loro balia. Vasya ama soprattutto la storia di Frost, il demone invernale dagli occhi blu, che appare nelle notti gelide per reclamare le anime incaute. Per questa ragione i saggi russi lo temono e onorano gli spiriti affinché proteggano le loro case dal male.

A gorgeously woven tale of magic, friendship, and self-discovery set in a dream-like landscape filled with fairies. After years of living in America, Clare Macleod and her father are returning to Ireland, where they’ll inhabit the house Clare was born in—a house built into a green...

Once an outcast and an orphan, Evie Wilder now finds herself as the new leader of the Dark Fable. But the secret group of globetrotting thieves is not the prestigious magical crew it once was, after suffering losses in their last heist. Evie must plan their next series of thefts carefully, to keep them alive until they can regain their strength and reharness the demons that control their unique magic.

Alice has lived in the forest on the fringes of Alder Vale ever since her parents abandoned her. Alone, exiled, and feared by all. All except Lily. Nature has always been Lily’s tonic, and she never feels more alive than when she’s amidst the trees. It was Alice who first called them the sisters of shadow, Lily, the sunshine to her moonlight, for neither can exist without the other. But something is stirring beyond the mountains. Whispers of spectres stalking the moors, women of unfathomable power luring children into a cult that has haunted local lore for a generation.

Traicionará sus sentidos,superará sus pesadillas,la mayoría morirá. Kiara Frey es una joven aldeana de un reino donde una maldición ha impedido que los habitantes vean la luz del sol desde hace cincuenta años. Su vida cambia de un día para otro cuando los Caballeros de la Estrella Eterna se presentan a reclutar a los jóvenes más capaces para luchar contra los peligros que habitan en la oscuridad. Aunque el llamado es solo para hombres, Kiara destaca al usar sus habilidades de combate para defender a su hermano de las burlas de unos muchachos.

Nations rise and fall in the aftermath of war over the Eternity Gate. The corrupted desert throne stands empty, and the Immortal Abyss awakens. Drought ravages the continent, and people long for the rebirth of a starpalm, who will rise from among mortals and end their judgment. Orphaned at birth, Tol grew up hiding in the farthest corners of the desert, training under powerful rebel fire wielders. She now dedicates her life to the Rebellion’s cause to seize the throne and Abyss from the surviving dynasty and deliver both to the coming deity.

Evie Wilder is an orphan who has gone through most of her life unnoticed...until she's caught up in a dramatic heist and captures the attention of the Dark Fable. They have chosen her for a reason: she can turn invisible. This skill would make Evie a treasured asset to the legendary group of thieves known for spiriting away obscure and occult artifacts. Evie cannot resist their allure and is eager to join this newfound family. But she discovers there are more skeletons in the Dark Fable’s past than she could have ever imagined. And these secrets might be the answer to her own tragic past.

Some fear the darkness. It’s the place where horror hides, concealing its rank, sharp teeth and insatiable hunger. But there is no darkness more feared than that of the mist that’s overtaken the kingdom … and its brave—and ultimately doomed—soldiers. Except for Kiara Frey. She has nothing to fear from the night. Not anymore. Driven by the fury of her splintered heart, Kiara knows that the answers—and the only possible way to a future with Jude Maddox—begin with the realm’s most notorious thief, the Fox.

Jude Maddox knows nothing of love or even light. He knows only his grim duty as the Hand of Death, to lead the Knights of the Eternal Star into a land filled with nightmares and certain demise. It’s only when he sees her—a young woman with wild, amber eyes who’s as fierce, defiant, and swift as the shadow beasts themselves—that he feels the warmth of life in his blood …
