Book excerpt: "Rich detail and vivid anecdotes of adventure....A treasure trove of exotic fact and hard thinking." —New York Times Book Review For millennia, lions, tigers, and their man-eating kin have kept our dark, scary forests dark and scary, and their predatory majesty has been the stuff of folklore. But by the year 2150 big predators may only exist on the other side of glass barriers and chain-link fences. Their gradual disappearance is changing the very nature of our existence. We no longer occupy an intermediate position on the food chain; instead we survey it invulnerably from above—so far above that we are in danger of forgetting that we even belong to an ecosystem. Casting his expert eye over the rapidly diminishing areas of wilderness where predators still reign, the award-winning author of The Song of the Dodo and The Tangled Tree examines the fate of lions in India's Gir forest, of saltwater crocodiles in northern Australia, of brown bears in the mountains of Romania, and of Siberian tigers in the Russian Far East. In the poignant and troublesome ferocity of these embattled creatures, we recognize something primeval deep within us, something in danger of vanishing forever.

Book excerpt: "I don't think getting to know me that intimately is part of the job description," I whispered in her ear, amused by the salacious thoughts. Who'd have guessed the stiff in the lab coat would have such a dirty mind? "Let me make this clear. I would never touch a filthy mortal like you in such a way." Dr Quentin Scott doesn't believe in the Gods. Forsaken at every turn of her life, she refuses to kneel before them and beg for scraps. But when she is recruited to the E.L.I. project, Quen is forced to come face to face with the Gods she detests. Grayson, God of Chaos, never wanted to be part of the project. He would happily spend his days in Upper Elysia, watching the madness he created unfold amongst the mortals, but he's outnumbered. When he's paired with a disrespectful nonbeliever, Gray's temper leads his every action. And then he senses the chaos that lies beneath the pretty façade, and he vows to break her. As Grayson and Quentin lock horns over the smallest things, something sparks between them. But a spark can become a raging inferno in the blink of an eye and the damage done may be irreparable. When secrets emerge that could shift the balance of powers in Elysia, decisions must be made and there's no such thing as an easy choice. The Gods have come to play, but it's a dangerous game. Who can you trust? *This book contains sexually explicit scenes, mature language, discussion of deceased parents and a train accident and OM/OW drama. Not intended for readers below 18.

Book excerpt: Greek mythology meets the Kardashians in Emily Roberson's Lifestyles of Gods and Monsters, a fresh, fast-paced debut young adult novel about celebrity culture, family dynamics, and finding love amidst it all. Sixteen-year-old Ariadne’s whole life is curated and shared with the world. Her royal family’s entertainment empire is beloved by the tabloids, all over social media, and the hottest thing on television. The biggest moneymaker? The Labyrinth Contest, a TV extravaganza in which Ariadne leads fourteen teens into a maze to kill a monster. To win means endless glory; to lose means death. In ten seasons, no one has ever won. When the gorgeous, mysterious Theseus arrives at the competition and asks Ariadne to help him to victory, she doesn’t expect to fall for him. He might be acting interested in her just to boost ratings. Their chemistry is undeniable, though, and she can help him survive. If he wins, the contest would end for good. But if she helps him, she doesn’t just endanger her family’s empire—the monster would have to die. And for Ariadne, his life might be the only one worth saving. Ariadne’s every move is watched by the public and predestined by the gods, so how can she find a way to forge her own destiny and save the people she loves?

Book excerpt: Two worlds threaten to crumble in the face of a common enemy in the epic conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy -- now with a gorgeous new package! What power can bruise the sky? Two worlds are poised on the brink of a vicious war. By way of a staggering deception, Karou has taken control of the chimaera's rebellion and is intent on steering its course away from dead-end vengeance. The future rests on her. When the brutal angel emperor brings his army to the human world, Karou and Akiva are finally reunited -- not in love, but in tentative alliance against their common enemy. It is a twisted version of their long-ago dream, and they begin to hope that it might forge a way forward for their people. And, perhaps, for themselves. But with even bigger threats on the horizon, are Karou and Akiva strong enough to stand among the gods and monsters? The New York Times bestselling Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy comes to a stunning conclusion as -- from the streets of Rome to the caves of the Kirin and beyond -- humans, chimaera, and seraphim strive, love, and die in an epic theater that transcends good and evil, right and wrong, friend and enemy.

Book excerpt: God Made Us Monsters, the debut Novel by Bill Neary, is a tale of the South Seas written in the tradition of James Michener, Jack London and James Clavel. Early in the 20th Century, Hawaii's Molokai Island was not the expected explosion of color, light and trade winds it is today, but a sepia nightmare. Where men, women and children, suspected of contracting leprosy, were cast into the shark-infested waters from the decks of condemned cattle boats and made to swim to shore only to be met and sadistically preyed upon by the members of their own kind, the Lepers of Molokai. Sent there by the Catholic Church, Father Damien is unprepared for the staggering suffering, the loss of limb, sight and mind. He is attacked from every dimension, colonial, social spiritual and forces unexplainable by natural law. All orchestrated by one individual. The "Colonel is an imperial man, dapper, brilliant and ruthless. Contracted by the British, his mission is to destabilize the growing economy and America's influence. However, he has a much darker and sinister agenda. God Made us Monsters is historical fiction, a tale of how an unspeakable hell, where monstrous violence, horror and hopeless desperation was converted into an idyllic paradise by the love and determination of a simple priest
