A Glow From the Window
C.P. Du Toit
Since Sahle became Queen of Izwe one year ago, she has struggled to understand this new world. She has denied her power. She has lost her closest friend during a recent palace attack. Racked by guilt, she knows her next decisions determine the fate of her kingdom.
​
Yet, the realm is more chaotic than ever. Magic like hers has not been seen in generations, and she must raise a dormant power if she is to master it. As external threats continue to mount and internal allegiances splinter, marriage becomes the key to holding a nation together. The question is, which man is destined to wear the Consort’s crown?
​
The sequel to A Certain Slant of Light continues Sahle’s story amidst the lush, evocative land of a reimagined colonial Africa. Only this time, Sahle must decide how much she is willing to sacrifice for the sake of her people.
Jet Fuel Can't Melt Steel Beams
James Vachowski
In the spring of 1993, Jessie Carpenter is fifteen years old, and still alive. A few months from now, a bullied student is going to shoot up Jessie’s school in a horrific act of revenge. The coming massacre was foretold by her younger stepbrother—an adult version of the autistic toddler from Jessie’s present—who traveled back in time to deliver the warning.
​
With her future uncertain and her own life hanging in the balance, Jessie works to prevent the tragedy. Taking cues from her father—a professional wrestler whose losing career is now suddenly, almost unbelievably, on the rise—Jessie manages to connect with her troubled classmate through a shared interest in World Wide Wrestling. As the unlikely relationship deepens, the odds of Jessie living to see high school increase exponentially.
​
But by tampering with the events in her timeline, and by changing her future, Jessie will unintentionally create a second, larger disaster. One so massive, it will defy all belief.
A Winged Embrace
Toni Mobley
Emilia Bauer expected her European college experience to be unforgettable—but not like this. When a rare meteor shower rains down more than just stardust, sleek, bone-winged creatures emerge from
tar-soaked pods and begin tearing across the continent. Fleeing the chaos with her friends, Emilia narrowly
escapes an initial onslaught and joins a military convoy en route to Germany.
Trapped in the serpentine roads of the Alps during a blizzard, Emilia is separated from the group and comes face to face with one of the alien beings. Instead of killing her, it hesitates—and something inside her shifts. As the snow falls and loyalties blur, she begins to suspect the truth is far more complicated than anyone realizes.
Are the aliens humanity’s destroyers—or is the real enemy already among them?
