Unfortunately for Katherine, she cannot imagine anything more loathsome-or dangerous. To help ease her entrance into society, Katherine's family has elicited the assistance of the Earl of Thornewood, a friend and London's most eligible bachelor, to be her constant companion at the endless fetes and balls. But upon her arrival in London, Katherine realizes there will be more to this season than just white gowns and husband hunting.Through her late mother's enchanted diary, Katherine receives warning to keep hidden her otherworldly ability to perform arcana, a magic fueled by the power of the sun. Any misstep could mean ruin-and not just for her family name. The Order of the Eternal Sun is everywhere-hunting for those like her, able to feed on arcana with only a touch of the hand.But society intrigue can be just as perilous as the Order. The machinations of the fashionable elite are a constant threat, and those who covet Katherine's arcana, seeking the power of her birthright, could be hiding behind the façade of every suitor-even the darkly handsome Earl of Thornewood.With so much danger and suspicion, can she give her heart to the one who captivates her, or is he just another after her power?
Archangel
by Garry KilworthIn 1997 an angel fell to Earth. Dave Peters, and his sidekick in the San Francisco police squad, Danny, were right there at the time. Caught up in a supernatural war between good and evil, they had eventually tracked down the rogue entity and brought an end to its reign of deadly fire. But now the stakes had risen. It's 2002, and there's a demon abroad in London, a soul so corrupt and foul that Satan himself has recruited him from the legions of the dead. Only one entity in Heaven can counter his power - an Archangel, an angel of the highest rank.
Archangel
by Mike ConnerFrom the book jacket: Archangel is set in an alternate universe Minneapolis, in the late 1920s, after a decade of devastating plague. Hun, a blood disease that appeared during World War I, ended the war and is killing more people every year. Like other great cities, Minneapolis is a shadow of its former self, isolated by the breakdown of civilization. Whites are dying while blacks are immune and trying to forge a new social compact in a radically changed society. And a mysterious woman calling herself "the Archangel" broadcasts the music of the jazz age-and the real, uncensored news-from a pirate radio station. Danny Constantine, a young newspaperman, discovers a weird series of murders that look like the work of a vampire. But in a world of bad news, even his own paper doesn't care to print his discovery. Danny has been alone in the world since his wife died of Hun, and his investigation becomes his personal crusade, involving him with an embittered black police officer, a doctor seeking a cure for the disease, and the social forces contending for power in the crumbling city- and finally, with the Archangel. Michael Conner has been building a reputation as one of the most talented younger writers in science fiction. His recent story, "Guide Dog," won the 1993 Nebula Award. Now Conner has written Archangel, his most powerful and intriguing work yet.

Savaged in a brutal attack that almost killed her, Honor is nowhere near ready to come face-to-face with the seductive vampire who is an archangel's right hand and who wears his cruelty as boldly as his lethal sensuality--the same vampire who has been her secret obsession since the day she was old enough to understand the inexplicable, violent emotions he aroused in her.

Something is hunting...and it will not stop until it brings a bloodsoaked nightmare to life once more

Arde conmigo
by Steven Savile Alicia L. AlonsoEl autor británico de superventas de series como Doctor Who, Primeval y Torchwood presenta un thriller rodeado de ocultismo, en el que las calles del viejo Londres de la reina Victoria se ven sumidas en un caos de asesinatos y fenómenos sobrenaturales. Cosas muy extrañas y terroríficas ocurren en Londres. Los leones de Trafalgar han abandonado sus pedestales junto a la columna de Lord Nelson, para defender la ciudad y cumplir una antigua profecía. Mientras tanto, una presencia siniestra, libre de nuevo tras vivir aprisionada durante siglos, se ha lanzado a la caza de presas indefensas a través de las calles iluminadas por lámparas de gas y los mercados de carne del distrito de Whitechapel. Las mujeres que persigue son muy distintas de las prostitutas que están siendo brutalmente asesinadas por un tal Jack. Son mujeres que se hacen pasar por vendedoras de flores, pero por cuyas venas corre sangre de ángel. Entre estas dos fuerzas del bien y del mal se encuentran los Greyfriar, dispuestos a enfrentarse a los enemigos infernales sin más armas que su agudeza mental y un toque de magia de la vieja escuela. Para ellos, el éxito radica en poder rescatar la sangre inocente y los tiernos corazones que la hacen latir. El precio de la derrota es demasiado horrible. Únete a Dorian Carruthers y a los inquebrantables caballeros Greyfriar para evitar que el Diablo y sus secuaces tomen la ciudad y la hagan suya, en un viaje a través de las entrañas más oscuras de Londres y directo a la mismísima Escalera Catamina que baja a los infiernos.
