Kaos (Profanebiblioteket #1)
by Jb TrepagnierProfanebiblioteket har alt det ditt svarte hjerte ønsker seg. Men vi tillater ikke hvem som helst et lånekort. Trenger du å mane frem en demon? Vekke de døde? En klan med vampyrer som plager deg? Liker du skikkelig klissete varulverotikk? Profanebiblioteket har alt dette, men det er ikke alle som kan håndtere innholdet (noen folk håndterer ikke varulvporno). Jeg har vært bibliotekar her i fem år, og når jeg sier jeg drepte for å få denne jobben, så tuller jeg ikke. Du kan ikke se gjennom bøkene våre. Noen av bøkene er selvbevisste og liker det ikke. Vi har rom for å utføre trylleformlene i, og vi har en kopimaskin (kopier koster ekstra). Da en heks kom inn og sa at de trengte å gjøre litt nekromanti, satte jeg ikke spørsmålstegn ved det. De ville ikke fått et lånekort om de skulle mane frem noe fryktelig. Jeg hjalp dem med nekromantien fordi det er en av jobbene mine som bibliotekar. Men det var ikke noe normalt de manet frem. Det var den fysiske personifikasjonen av Kaos. Da han våknet, så han meg først, og nå er han knyttet. Personifikasjonen av Kaos er en forferdelig bibliotekgjest, og han vil ikke dra med heksen som manet ham frem. Han kommer konstant inn i ting som han ikke skal, og han er sykt interessert i varulverotikk. Det er ikke sånn at jeg kan slippe ham ut, fordi Profanebiblioteket skal liksom holde igjen Kaos. Resten av verden skal ikke det. Han er også veldig dårlig på å holde identiteten sin hemmelig. En trollmann, en Helveteshund og en vampyr vet at han er her, og de maser på meg for å la Kaos ha det litt gøy. Jeg vil bare ha en normal dag med å mane frem demoner, forbanne folk og fortelle dem å være stille i biblioteket mitt. Dette er for mye.
Karmic Penance: The Accidental Zodiacs (The Accidental Zodiacs)
by Gracen MillerAs the living deity of the Karmic Penance faith, Jozie Carmichael is worshipped by its followers. To the Zodiac Enforcement Agency, she’s a Fallen, her magic too red to be anything other than evil. As a god, her will is supreme and she won’t apologize for it. Beau Winchester is a ZEA agent hellbent on catching Jozie Carmichael, an insane cult leader. She snubs morals and laws, and any practical decency, which is dangerous in the hands of a Zodiac wielder. Especially since her selfish agendas leave a trail of anguish in her aftermath. Then he gets lucky and collars her, discovering the Amulet of Time in her possession. But when it’s stolen from lockup, he must face the implausible idea that Jozie may not be the most imminent threat to humanity. Unfortunately, there’s no one better than her to track the item, so, he offers her a chance at redemption. Will she take his deal? Can he trust her if she does? Or will fate deliver karmic penance to him in the form of a beautiful, but maniacal Fallen?

La Llamada de los Monstruos (Mis Bellos Monstruos #3)
by Jb TrepagnierPuede que antes la gente adorara a los Olímpicos, pero yo nunca lo hice. Mataré a cada uno de ellos para recuperar a Hefesto. Me encantaban mis clases de mitología griega hasta que me secuestraron y conocí a algunos dioses. Tuve a Hefesto como amante y Hades y Perséfone no son tan malos, ¿pero el resto? Hacen daño a mis monstruos. Zeus secuestró a Hefesto y le está haciendo quién sabe qué por hacer una daga cuando fui yo quien la usó para matar a Deméter. Los Olímpicos se llevaron a Hefesto porque ni siquiera pueden contemplar la idea de que una humilde medio demonio matara a una de ellos. Sé por qué nadie dijo nada cuando Zeus vino al Inframundo. Sé que hay un plan para recuperar a Hefesto. También hay mucho que no sé y que necesito aprender rápido. Tengo esta misteriosa forma demoníaca de mi padre a la que necesito aprender a acceder. Hefesto hizo todas estas armas capaces de acabar con los Olímpicos si venían, pero no sé cómo usarlas. No voy a tener tanta suerte otra vez como con Deméter. Tengo que aprender todo esto y tengo que aprenderlo deprisa porque sé por Hades y por mi padre, que si no lo hago, estaré castigada en mi habitación cuando todos intenten rescatar a mi Dios. Y tengo un resentimiento personal con su padre por todo el daño que le hizo a Hefesto.
