The
Spider’s
Friend
Murdered shamans. Tortured gods. A shadowy villain behind it all. Maru knows the culprit is one of his siblings but not which; a week ago, he didn’t know he had a family. An army of zealous bison waits in the wings, waiting to invade, and the only person with any solid information is a talking plant who can’t get the humans to listen to him.
And the worst thing is? Before Maru can worry about any of it, he has to save the lying magician who conned him into getting involved in this.
WE
In the dream of a desert, a witch brings them together: embittered siblings dueling for one throne; a demon, an athlete, a sorcerer; foreigners from a distant land; a barbarian, a scholar, a kidnapped princess. They may have the will, the grit and magic and martial skill to save the day. But only if she can convince them they’re not enemies.
The Elsewhere Riddle
Once upon a time, humans waged war against elves, trying to take magic and their shared homeland for themselves. They lost and wound up vassals to masters who pretend they don’t exist. It’s puzzling that the gods seem to be trying to unite their peoples two hundred years later. As if something bigger than their feud is coming.
The
Foreign
Sorcerer
A foreign sorcerer has come from afar to Liath-Tamren, greatest metropolis in the world. His mission: ambiguous. As a member of a cabal so secretive many doubt that they exist, and possessed of powers unique to them, uncanny is Japhet’s normal. But none of his orders make sense, and his fellows are being cagey with him.
Into
the
Darkbower
30 years ago, Esmerelda landed a spot on an all-star squad, investigating the rarest kind of case: a criminal who appears to have a faerie for a bodyguard.
Zimanges
A group of roommates has to save the day, but only once the laundry gets done and the bills are paid. In a crossroads city founded by a bandit, a crew of strangers comes together. They’d rather focus on their new friends and making new lives, but a pile of leaves has given them a mission: save the city from a demon.
