Book excerpt: In this extraordinary novel of mischief and menace, we see a young man's very self vanishing before his eyes—from the winner of the PEN/Malamud Award and “one of our most gifted writers” (Chicago Tribune) "Entirely original.... So craftily construcyed that to appreciate how liberally Baxter plants creepy hints of what's to come a reader should really savor this book twice." —The Washington Post As a graduate student in upstate New York, Nathaniel Mason is drawn into a tangle of relationships with people who seem to hover just beyond his grasp. There's Theresa, alluring but elusive, and Jamie, who is fickle if not wholly unavailable. But Jerome Coolberg is the most mysterious and compelling. Not only cryptic about himself, he seems also to have appropriated parts of Nathaniel's past that Nathaniel cannot remember having told him about.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the end of World War Two nears, a young German soldier concealing his Jewish heritage plots an escape from his commander and the war – and plans to bring his commander's mistress with him. Atmospheric and intense, The Soul of a Thief captures the turbulent emotional rush of those caught behind the lines of Occupied France, where one false step could spell death, and every day brings a new struggle to survive. In the spring of 1944, I realised that I was not going to survive the war... Shtefan Brandt, adjutant to a colonel of the Waffen SS, has made it through the war so far in spite of his commander's habit of bringing his staff into combat, and a pair of secrets that is far more dangerous than the battlefield. Shtefan is a Mischling and one of the thousands of German citizens of Jewish descent who have avoided the death camps by concealing themselves in the ranks of the German army. And he is in love with Gabrielle Belmont, the colonel's French mistress. Either of those facts could soon mean his end, were Colonel Erich Himmel to notice. Colonel Himmel has other concerns, however. He can see the war's end on the horizon and recognises that he is not on the winning side, no matter what the reports from Hitler's generals may say. So he has taken matters into his own hands, hatching a plot to escape Europe. To fund his new life, he plans to steal a fortune from the encroaching Allies. A fortune that Shtefan, in turn, plans to steal from him...

After the devastating battle at the Tabernacle, trappers are dead and injured, her boyfriend Simon is gravely injured, and now her beloved late father's been illegally poached from his grave by a very powerful necromancer. As if that's not enough, there's Ori, one sizzling hot freelance demon hunter who's made himself Riley's unofficial body guard, and Beck, a super over-protective "friend" who acts more like a grouchy granddad. With all the hassles, Riley's almost ready to leave Atlanta altogether. But as Atlanta's demon count increases, the Vatican finally sends its own Demon Hunters to take care of the city's "little" problem, and pandemonium breaks loose. Only Riley knows that she might be the center of Hell's attention: an extremely powerful Grade 5 demon is stalking her, and her luck can't last forever... Soul Thief is Book Two in Jana Oliver's bestselling young adult series, Demon Trappers.

Book excerpt: They were one soul in two bodies, Corban and Mav, twins born to the lord of a Irish coastal farmstead. Mav had the second sight and was her father's delight; Corban, though, was a deep disappointment, finally exiled for refusing his father's command to go and take up a sword for the High King. But on the night of Corban's exile, as he slept in the woods and brooded on injustice, the dreadful dragon ships of the Vikings bore down on his home with fire and the sword. The farm was plundered and burned; all the people were slain, save the young women--they were raped and dragged off to a life of slavery. From the coast of Ireland to the occupied village of Dublin, across the Irish Sea to a Viking stronghold in Britain, and then across the North Sea to the Kingdom of the Danes. Corban is drawn in the track of his ravaged sister, fighting for his own life and to earn the influence and money he will need to buy her freedom. His quest is not hopeless, for Mav's second sight, made stronger by the dreadful fate that has befallen her, has brought her to the attention of the Lady of Hedeby. The Lady, wealthy and influential in the Kingdom of the Danes, has bought Mav; she intends to use the twins , and their link with each other, to extend that influence far beyond Hedeby.

Book excerpt: It's not every day that an Angel of God sneaks into Hell to steal a soul... My name is so old that the sands of time have scraped its memory. I was a powerful Guardian once. The proud leader of my kin. But my weakness compelled me to the World. And in the World, I met the most peculiar creatures, beings so extraordinary they defied the bounds of our Lord’s Creation. Vampires, I soon discovered, were the vilest kind. For it was a vampire who seduced me into sealing an unbreakable vow. And because of that vow, I committed the darkest sin: stealing a soul from Hell. I am Drahoslav, the Soul Thief. The Almighty’s wrath has stripped me of my wings. I am determined to get them back. There's just one thing I failed to consider as I devised my plan... Falling in love. ◆ Excerpt: "It's not every day that an Angel of God sneaks into Hell to steal a soul. It's a once-in-a-lifetime feat too, for invariably when that precious soul is missed, punishment follows. There was no previous summoning, no warning of what would follow. I simply opened my eyes one night and found myself in a dungeon. The pain came later; searing on my back, scorching my skin down to the bone. I hugged my knees close to my chest and in the darkness, I screamed." © Silvana G. Sánchez 2021 The Soul Thief is the sequel to Vesely Academy: Academy of Extraordinary Creatures. Dark academia and paranormal romance tangle in a fast-paced tale that will thrill your heart! Fans of the Zodiac Academy will love Vesely Academy!
