Beschreibung

This issue, we have original mysteries by Christina Hoag and Greg Herren (both courtesy of Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken), plus a crime tale by Greg Herren (courtesy of Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman). Our mystery novel is Annihilation by classic American mystery novelist Isabel Ostrander, whose detective fiction was influential in the early 20th century. Of course, there’s a solve-it-yourself puzzler by Hal Charles, too!
 
On the science fiction and fantasy front, we have a real treat—Phyllis Ann Karr has been going through her files and found the previously unpublished short-story version of her novel Wildraith’s Last Battle for us. Plus, we have classics by David Mason, Cordwainer Smith, and Allen K. Lang. Our science-fantasy novel is Lin Carter’s sword-and-planet tale, Under the Green Star (the first of the Green Star series, very much in the Edgar Rice Burroughs tradition).

    In the not too distant future Darcy Loras and Milah Johaness have been in a bi-coastal relationship for the last two years. Their relationship is perfect. They were friends for years before they started dating, they communicate so well because they talk all the time, and they can’t imagine their lives without each other. The only thing in their way is the distance. 
    Now that’s a thing of the past! Instant teleportation has finally been unlocked and there is nothing standing in their way of being together. Or so they thought. 
    Transitioning a relationship that used to be entirely virtual to one where they can be together whenever they want is not without its challenges, and now with their biggest obstacle removed, they have to discover what they really want out of their relationship and where they go from here. Maybe the distance wasn’t the only thing keeping them apart.

    Matt is inside Maggie's head, and their oddly dangerous frenemies are gone for the time being, but their troubles are only just beginning. Cyrilla is out of commission and some young witches are setting themselves up to be her successors . . . and courting Cole in the process. 
     
     
     
    Which annoys Maggie, given that she's his girlfriend now. 
     
     
     
    It's complicated. 
     
     
     
    Maggie doesn't have any interest in taking Cyrilla's place, but when she hears that a magical bounty hunter is preying on the children in her community, she's sure as hell not going to let him get away with it. 
     
     
     
    Tracking him down requires her to go to James Shalton for help. Cole's father. The guy who might or might not have killed Cyrilla. Who might or might not have it out for Maggie. 
     
     
     
    Is anything going to be simple ever again?

    My great-grandmother always said, “The good Lord won’t give you more than you can handle.” If that’s the case, the big guy upstairs must think I’m a freaking superhero. 
    My hands were already full with two great guys, a daughter, and a brand-new baby. Not to mention, my job as a victim’s advocate and psychic medium for the Orange County Police Department. But evidently, the universe thought I needed more. 
    A lot more. 
    Namely, the brother I never knew I had, showing up and claiming our long-lost father was in grave danger, a series of murders that only I can solve, and enough family secrets to fill an entire season of the Jerry Springer Show. 
    I may be Fae, but everyone has their limits… 
    And I’ve reached mine. 
    It’s time to put on the red cape and kick some serious butt, because no one messes with my family and gets away with it.

    What’s worse than being a broke wizard? Having a gluttonous fiend for a pet.
     
    When scholar and spell-caster Professor Croft trapped a succubus in a kitten’s body, he believed he was being merciful. His reward two years on? A morbidly obese cat with a lethal attitude.
     
    When Tabitha isn’t busy lounging, gorging on delicacies, or honing her insults, she’s devising ways to devour his well-meaning soul.
     
    But as supernatural mysteries pop up in the city—from a haunting on Roosevelt Island to a monster lurking in a child’s closet in Brooklyn—Prof Croft dares to consider that Tabitha’s unique makeup might actually be an asset.
     
    Can he convince his ginger adversary to shelve their differences long enough to solve cases and save innocent lives? Or will Tabitha insist she has better things to do?
     
    Like shredding his favorite reading chair.
     
    Set before the main books in the Prof Croft series, this complete collection of mini-adventures can be enjoyed on its own. If you like snarky cats, fledgling mages, and supernatural investigations, you're sure to love Croft & Tabby!

    Inside the cartographer's hidden atlas of Wayfarer Hold, where mapmakers draw wandering compasses from ink trails and lost explorers step into uncharted lands, weaver Mira directs path to explorer Ronan, whose lost steps conceal a compass pointing to home. Their compass, drawn in ink vows and trail-kissed adventures, directs love—or veers into mazes of perpetual wandering. As they chart through atlas-laced vaults and explorer-veiled maps, lost to trail wardens and path rivals, Mira's weaving direction merges with Ronan's exploring wander, revealing a mapmaker legend of directed quest. When a faded ink summons labyrinth shades, they must draw the path to find the way. In the wandering of mapmaker's compass, where every trail leads to discovery and every step uncovers passion, their directed bond becomes the map that guides the soul home.
