  What do you do when you become the very thing you were taught to hate? 
  All I, Adalynn Taethen, have ever wanted to do was to serve my beloved home, the kingdom of Rothschan, in their famed military. Not only did I grow up knowing it was my duty, but I also hoped it would change the fortunes of my impoverished family. 
  But on the day of my enrollment, a disastrous meeting reveals my family's long-dormant enemy. Someone my parents have kept secret from me for years. 
  Along with other family secrets. 
  I have a surprise of my own—I can do magic. But in Rothschan, where magic is hated and anyone who wields it is feared and killed, my life is forfeit. 
  So I escape to the northern kingdom of Calia to learn more about my newfound magical powers. 
  And maybe I'll even learn more about my family secrets there, too. 
  But first I have to master my magic before it destroys me. And before my enemy finds me and destroys everything I hold dear.

Heir of Magic and Mischance is the third book in the Kingdom Legacy series set in this magical world.

  Warning: Foul-mouthed cat ahead  
  Prof Croft here and, yes, I trapped a murderous succubus in a kitten’s body and made her my pet. The alternative was to behead her, and as wizards go, I’m just not that callous. 
  Do you think Tabitha shows any appreciation? Two years old now, her speech has grown along with her girth, and when not insulting me, she’s plotting ways to devour my soul. 
  But that’s the least of my problems. An early winter storm has plunged our unheated apartment to near freezing, and I’m too cash-strapped to afford a chimney sweep. So when a strange woman appears, asking me to investigate an attack at an old smallpox hospital, I accept the case along with her vague offer of compensation. 
  And If I can involve Tabitha, who knows? Maybe we’ll finally start bonding. 
  Sure, and maybe Hell will host the next Winter Games. 
  Croft & Tabby is a spinoff of the popular Prof Croft series, set before the main books. If you like snarky cats, fledgling mages, and supernatural investigations, you'll love Croft & Tabby!

  After a harrowing journey through infected territory, Jane Finch, her loyal Great Dane, and her equally protective almost-zombie Grey have reached the military base in the mountains. It's supposed to be safe. But the last thing they can do is drop their guard. Surrounded by soldiers, reeling from her first kiss with Grey and the news that he has a wife, Jane is separated from Grey. The loss leaves her aching. Then she's thrust into a tenuous role of 'behavioral investigator' for the base. When she uncovers a shocking truth, she's desperate to reach Grey. 
   
   
   
  Kept in chains and subject to constant tests, Grey is torn between reclaiming his life as Commander Jack Hale and embracing his altered state. The base's expert doctor and the woman claiming to be Jack's wife insist that he needs to focus on training soldiers and leave Jane behind. But those same people are keeping deadly secrets—including feral zombies in cages. 
   
   
   
  Grey is told that Jane makes him feral. But his altered instincts are convinced he belongs with her—and that she's in terrible danger. And he's right. There's a hidden enemy in the base, a traitor plotting to destroy all the survivors. 
   
   
   
  If being feral means he can save his pack, does he even want to be human?

  The Blue Fairy Book

  Andrew Lang (1844–1912) in collaboration with his wife Leonora Blanche Alleyne (1851-1933) published The Blue Fairy Book in 1889 and it was to become the first of a series of twenty five collections of fantastical tales from around the world, ending with “The Strange Story Book” published in 1923. 
  In this first collection we find many of the traditional favourites from the “Fairy Tale” world, including amongst others “Goldilocks”, “Sleeping Beauty”, “Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves”, Tom Thumb" “Rumpelstiltskin” and “Jack the Giant Killer”. While many of these have some vestige of the narrative we may be accustomed to through many sanitised adaptations, there are many surprises! 
  The telling of these stories in the “Blue Fairy Book” are by no means the cosy bedtime stories we might expect. You will search in vain for the three friendly bears in “Goldilocks”, or the accommodating dwarves in” Snow-white”. There is no attempt to soften the edges or the expunge the blood thirsty fates that befall may of the unfortunate characters. 
  Head Stories Audio presents " The Blue Fairy Book", narrated by Simon Hester. With original music.
