- A Military Astromance
184,95 kr. On a distant dwarf planet, a young soldier discovers her mortal enemy is her only tie to the world she left behind, in a high-stakes sci-fi romance. Two months after her eighteenth birthday, scrappy Hikari Skye is ready to leave her ramshackle mobile home on Earth for icy dwarf planet Ceres and the underground bases that house Space Force. She's trading her dingy trailer park; her baby sister, Bea; and her best friend, Rho, for the excitement of the Proxy Wars and the freedom of the galactic front lines--where her father once deserted his own platoon. And the most appealing part? She's leaving behind Draeden Rache, the cocky, privileged bully who tried to kiss her last year. Appealing, that is, until Drae and Kari are tied together by the Pairing Ceremony as Sympathetics. Each week, she'll share everything with him and him alone: emotions, fears . . . and the sneaking suspicion that something is very, very wrong. As Kari struggles to survive life in a unit that can only see her as a defector's spawn, Drae and Rho work to solve a mystery of their own back at a futuristic UC Berkeley while their professor is hunted down for daring to teach beyond propaganda. With the California Federation's proxy war with the Siberian Federation heating up and Raiders creeping closer by the day, Kari and Drae's weekly interactions turn into a race against time, even as their feelings for each other grow. And there's something both Kari's tough drill sergeant and Drae's wealthy father don't want them to know . . . Fourth Wing meets The Expanse in A Sacrifice of Blood and Stars, the first book of an enemies-to-lovers sci-fi series for the ages. "Conjures the magic of romance amid the horrors of a war-torn future. Fast-paced, filled with action, and alive with love and need. Highly recommend!" --Jonathan Maberry, New York Times-bestselling author of the Sleepers War and NecroTek series

148,95 kr. The Castle of Horror Anthology returns with stories of the young-- horrible, thrilling, terrible flamin' youth at its most harrowing.>The Most Dangerous game gets a very contemporary send-up in the world of sorority sisters on a Yoga retreat in Jennifer Brody's "Namaste." Alethea Kontis returns to the Castle of Horror with a castle-bound story of her own, the exciting, French romantic fantasy story "Blood From Stone," about a young woman turning to black magic for love. "The Black House" by Bryan Young brings us a small-town-American love story of a boy and his (to reveal what would be spoiling it.) David Bowles' haunting "Shattered Intaglio" gives us a fresh alternate world of magic wielders and revenge. A girl pours herself into her haunted hobby of gravestone rubbings while a family member wastes away in Debbie Daughetee's "The Black Door." Julian Michael Carver's "1/1" is a story about baseball card collection that would be right at home in an old issue of Tales from the Crypt. The Indian city of Amritsar is the locale for a classic tale of a boy, a curse, and a night in a haunted mansion in "The Curse of Amritsar" by Ammar Habib. In Jess Hagemann's strange, dreamlike "House of Many Rooms," young people are just... disappearing, so many of them that people have given up trying to explain. Carmen Gray's "A Tale as Old as Time" tells of a sweet young girl whose growing anger against injustice may find a voice in dangerous power. Sam Knight's "The Light at the End of the Tunnel" is a Lovecraftean, post-apocalyptic story that oscillates smoothly between comfort and slimy fear. In "I am Laid to Rest in Maine," Mike Owsley gives us the narrative of a young person, now dead, coming to terms with their own demise-- and maybe not staying that way. Scott Pearson came to us with "The Creature in Jay Cooke Park," a companion story to "The Loneliness of Monstersm" which appeared in Castle of Horror Anthology Volume 7: Love Gone Wrong. Here, three friends encounter a strange visitor in a world where such visitors are arriving more and more. Amidst a raging hurricane, a young woman struggles to survive against the elements, both physical and supernatural, in an effort to be reunited with her younger sister in S.N. Rodriguez' "Penumbra." And Leanna Renee Hieber returns to the spooky Colorado town of Glazier's Gap, the location of her book Ghosts of the Forbidden, with the tale of a 17-year-old rocker in 1999 who feels the weight of spirits all around her-- spirits that may bear a deadly warning.
