Belladonna Johnson can see ghosts. It's a trait she's inherited from her mother's side of the family, like blue eyes or straight hair. And it's a trait she could do without, because what twelve-year-old wants to be caught talking to someone invisible? It is convenient, though, after Belladonna's parents are killed in a car accident. They can live with her the same as always, watching the same old TV shows in their same old house. Nothing has changed . . . until everything changes. One night, with no warning, they vanish into thin air—along with every other ghost in the world. It's what some people think ghosts are supposed to do, but Belladonna knows it's all wrong. They may not be living, but they're not supposed to be gone. With the help of her classmate Steve, a master of sneaking and spying, Belladonna is left to uncover what's become of the spirits and to navigate a whole world her parents have kept well-hidden. If she can't find her way, she'll lose them again—this time for good.

Spellbinder: A Love Story with Magical Interruptions

There is magic in the big city…literally. New York City has a small, and by preference discrete, population of witches and wizards who live and love and go dancing just like everyone else. Holly McClure is one of them, a successful writer who tries to ignore her heritage, except when the local Magistrate needs her special gift in his coven. Holly is far more interested in Evan Lachlan, the handsome federal marshal who works with her best friend, assistant district attorney Susannah Wingfield.But trouble is coming to the City in the form of a black coven run by a murderous psychopath, and deputy marshals and ADAs are powerless to deal with that kind of crime. The danger to Holly is extreme, for her special gift is the power of her blood to strengthen and bind any spell, for good or for evil. Holly's passionate love affair will be derailed by those who want to drain her for their own purposes. In the end it will be magic against magic, and Holly McClure will have to risk all for life and love.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Fall under the spell of three otherworldly tales of ancient myth and mystery.THE FOREVER KING by New York Times Bestselling Authors Warren Murphy and Molly CochranWhen ten-year-old Arthur Blessing finds a strange antique cup, he has no idea it's the most sought after object in history. Nor does he realize the discovery of the Holy Grail will take him on a journey that defies the rules of space and time. As the cup's fate-appointed guardian, Arthur must protect it from dark magic and a madman determined to harness the Grail's legendary power. The mission threatens his very life, with assassins aligned against him at every turn.DRAGON'S EYE by James A. HetleyThe island township of Stonefort, Maine is home to the Morgans, one-time pirates and now shadowy criminals who live by two cardinal rules--protect the family and never foul your own nest. Kate Rowley, part-time town constable and odd-job specialist, is a high-school dropout who solves problems with her muscles and her fists. And Alice Haskell, EMT and emergency room nurse, doubles as the latest Haskell Witch, a Naskeag shaman with power over both whites and First People through her ties with the spirits of Stonefort's land and water. Now an outside power threatens the ancient balance--white and Indian alike, law and lawbreaker alike.THE SUMMER COUNTRY by James A. HetleyMaureen Pierce works the night shift in a convenience store, carries a .38 Smith & Wesson in her pocket, and talks to trees. She knows enough clinical psychology to think that when the trees answer, it proves she's crazy. She can live with that, until the truth reaches out to her on her way home one cold February night: She isn't truly human. Now her blood heritage drags her from Maine into ancient myth three steps away from the modern world. Camelot is dead. Arthur is dead. Law is dead. Maureen can become either a slave or a mighty witch, but her own dark past may be her worst enemy.

Spellbinders: Break the Game (Spellbinders #2)

It takes more than magic to make a hero, in the next installment of this hilarious and epic illustrated series. One not-so-chosen champion and his mystical friends must cross the multiverse and harness a dangerous power to defeat a mysterious new enemy."My favorite new fantasy series.&”—Max Brallier, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Last Kids on Earth seriesAfter leveling up from basement roleplaying games to saving an entire magical realm, 12-year-old Ben isn&’t happy returning to his ordinary life of homework and chores. So when his very un-magical LARP session is crashed by monstrous frog-men from another dimension, he can't wait to get back into hero mode.Someone is after all the Spellbinder&’s books, which grant the users — including Ben — epic reality-shifting powers. Ben, Niara, Merv, Drake, and their new friend Agnes must embark on an epic quest to save the books and their owners. But while hopping across different realms may be Ben&’s idea of a totally awesome spring break, it&’s tough to be an ordinary kid among extraordinary heroes. Especially when fighting for the fate of the universe seems to consist mostly of finding fun new ways to get them all killed, from zombie rats to pool noodle squids, to a mysterious Big Bad controlling everything from behind the scenes. How do you win the game when someone else is rolling the dice?

Spellbinders: Overpowered (Spellbinders)

Rewrite the rules of the game in the next installment of this hilarious and epic illustrated series about a middle schooler whose gaming fantasies become his reality. "My favorite new fantasy series.&”—Max Brallier, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Last Kids on Earth seriesAfter the universe-altering events of his last adventure, Ben Whitlock is trapped in an endless magical nap, and nobody across the realms knows how to wake him. But that won&’t keep his loyal quest party from trying their hardest. Merv searches the seemingly endless House of Reflection for a cure, while Niara, Agnes and Drake return to Lux, where it all began, to find answers from their ultimate enemy (although they have so many these days, it's hard to keep track).Meanwhile, Ben is stuck with the Spellbinder who first got him into this mess in a mind-bending dream world...and it appears his mind is the one that's bent. Can he escape before it finally breaks? Fighting their way back to one another, the party must face their greatest desires and their greatest fears. But when you play with magic, the rules are always being rewritten...and nothing is as it seems.

Spellbinders: The Not-So-Chosen One (Spellbinders #1)

"Ben may only be pretending to be the 'Chosen One'—but I&’ve definitely chosen this one as my favorite new fantasy series.&”—Max Brallier, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Last Kids on Earth seriesHow far would you go to play the hero? One lonely seventh grader gets way more than he bargained for when he is swept into the fantasy quest of his gaming dreams in this magical illustrated series full of laughs, adventure, and twists.Ben doesn&’t feel chosen by anybody—not by his friends, who haven&’t kept in touch since he moved after his parents&’ divorce, or by his mom, who&’s so busy he barely sees her. He spends all his time living in fantasy worlds and writing extensively planned adventure campaigns in his role-playing-game notebook. So when Niara, a character who could be right out of one of his favorite games, shows up and tells him he&’s destined to save her realm (like, foretold-by-a-prophecy destined), Ben has two possible moves: tell her the truth or play along. He's tired of feeling left behind, so his choice is clear—game on. One interdimensional portal later, Ben is in full hero mode. At first, adventuring in Lux seems like a dream come true, but pretending to be the Chosen One—and lying to his new friends—isn't quite what he imagined it to be. And the more he learns about Lux and his quest, the more he realizes this is way beyond a game—and the rules seem to be changing as he goes. In fact, it might be time for him to write some new ones.
