Crescent City by Sarah J. Maas
Bryce Quinlan had
the perfect life—working hard all day and partying all night—until a demon murdered
her closest friends, leaving her bereft, wounded, and alone. When the accused
is behind bars but the crimes start up again, Bryce finds herself at the heart
of the investigation. She’ll do whatever it takes to avenge their deaths.
Hunt Athalar is a
notorious Fallen angel, now enslaved to the Archangels he once attempted to
overthrow. His brutal skills and incredible strength have been set to one
purpose—to assassinate his boss’s enemies, no questions asked. But with a demon
wreaking havoc in the city, he’s offered an irresistible deal: help Bryce find
the murderer, and his freedom will be within reach.
As Bryce and Hunt
dig deep into Crescent City’s underbelly, they discover a dark power that
threatens everything and everyone they hold dear, and they find, in each other,
a blazing passion—one that could set them both free, if they’d only let it.
With unforgettable characters, sizzling romance, and page-turning suspense, this richly inventive new fantasy series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas delves into the heartache of loss, the price of freedom—and the power of love.
Truthwitch by Susan Dennard
In a continent on
the edge of war, two witches hold its fate in their hands.
Young witches
Safiya and Iseult have a habit of finding trouble. After clashing with a
powerful Guildmaster and his ruthless Bloodwitch bodyguard, the friends are
forced to flee their home.
Safi must avoid
capture at all costs as she's a rare Truthwitch, able to discern truth from
lies. Many would kill for her magic, so Safi must keep it hidden - lest she be
used in the struggle between empires. And Iseult's true powers are hidden even
from herself.
In a chance encounter at Court, Safi meets Prince Merik and makes him a reluctant ally. However, his help may not slow down the Bloodwitch now hot on the girls' heels. All Safi and Iseult want is their freedom, but danger lies ahead. With war coming, treaties breaking and a magical contagion sweeping the land, the friends will have to fight emperors and mercenaries alike. For some will stop at nothing to get their hands on a Truthwitch.
Nevernight by Jay Kristoff
Daughter of an
executed traitor, Mia Corvere is barely able to escape her father’s failed
rebellion with her life. Alone and friendless, she hides in a city built from
the bones of a dead god, hunted by the Senate and her father’s former comrades.
But her gift for speaking with the shadows leads her to the door of a retired
killer, and a future she never imagined.
Now, Mia is
apprenticed to the deadliest flock of assassins in the entire Republic—the Red
Church. If she bests her fellow students in contests of steel, poison and the
subtle arts, she’ll be inducted among the Blades of the Lady of Blessed Murder,
and one step closer to the vengeance she desires. But a killer is loose within
the Church’s halls, the bloody secrets of Mia’s past return to haunt her, and a
plot to bring down the entire congregation is unfolding in the shadows she so
loves.
Will she even survive to initiation, let alone have her revenge
Star Daughter by Shveta Thakrar
Stars like her
mother, who returned to her place in the constellation Pushya years ago. Since
that day, Sheetal has been forced to hide.
But as her
seventeenth birthday draws near, the pull from the sky is growing stronger. So
strong that Sheetal loses control, and a flare of starfire burns her human
father—an injury only a full star's blood can heal.
Sheetal has no
choice but to answer the starsong and ascend to the sky. But her celestial
family has summoned her for a reason: to act as their human champion in a
competition to decide the next ruling house of heavens.
Desperate to save her father, Sheetal agrees. But nothing could have prepared Sheetal to face the stars' dark history—or the forces that are working to shut the gate between the realms for good.
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway—a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them, this is a game in which only one can be left standing, and the circus is but the stage for a remarkable battle of imagination and will. Despite themselves, however, Celia and Marco tumble headfirst into love—a deep, magical love that makes the lights flicker and the room grow warm whenever they so much as brush hands.
True love or not, the game must play out, and the
fates of everyone involved, from the cast of extraordinary circus performers to
the patrons, hang in the balance, suspended as precariously as the daring
acrobats overhead.
Written in rich, seductive prose, this spell-casting
novel is a feast for the senses and the heart.
