  A desperate boy escapes his abusive home by joining a carnival and is drawn into a dark conspiracy in this tale by "a master storyteller" (Kurt Vonnegut).Though only eight years old, little Horton "Horty" Bluett has known a lifetime of sadness. Tormented and abused by his adoptive family, he's had enough—and with a beloved broken toy he calls "Junky" as his sole companion, the desperate little boy runs away to join a carnival. There, among the fortune tellers, fire-eaters, sideshow freaks, and assorted "strange people," Horty hopes to find acceptance and, at long last, a real home. But disgraced doctor Pierre "Maneater" Monetre's traveling show is no ordinary entertainment, and its performers are not what they appear to be. The Maneater has sinister plans for the world that go far beyond fleecing unsuspecting rubes and other easy marks—a dark and terrible scheme that requires unleashing the extraterrestrial power of the dreaming jewels, and the unwitting assistance of a young boy who may be far more remarkable than he's ever imagined.The full-length debut by Theodore Sturgeon, a legendary writer who won Nebula and Hugo Awards and authored such classics as More Than Human, this journey into a circus of shadows is "an intensely written and very moving novel of love and retribution" (The Washington Star).

  They say it takes a predator to catch one. Does an overweight cat qualify? 
  With my apartment scheduled for fumigation, Tabitha and I are forced to pitch camp in my friend’s living room. 
  Fortunately, Kayla already knows my succubus cat can talk—and that she doesn’t hold back. But something’s been preying on our host. I immediately suspect her new roommates, mainly the creep with the vampiric vibes. 
  The feeder could also be lurking inside Kayla’s favorite nightclub, which will require this bookish wizard to infiltrate New York’s hardcore punk scene. And since I can’t leave Tabitha alone, we’re teaming up again. Even if she is eyeing the crowd a little too hungrily… 
  Can we nail the predator before it devours my friend? And can I keep Tabitha from going full predator herself? 
  Let’s don some studded leather and find out. 
  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!

  In a reservation where magic has been unrestrained for entirely too long, there is no rest from the wicked… 
  After dealing with the fallout of a shape-shifting, fire-throwing demon, Lizzie, Belle, and Aiden are hoping the reservation will finally catch a break from the constant influx of evil. Those hopes are quickly dashed when Lizzie comes across the scent of evil and tracks it back to the clean-picked bones of a man. 
  As it quickly becomes obvious that this is not a one-off situation and there’s now a demon with a taste for human flesh on the reservation, another problem arises in the form of a White Lady—a ghost not only seeking bloody revenge, but demanding Belle’s assistance to get it. 
  And she won’t take no for an answer. 
  But the greatest threat of all might be the witch who is a magical bloodhound. A witch who’s been sent to the reservation to by one Clayton Marlowe… 
  Lizzie’s husband.
