Beschreibung

The first of a unique trilogy, Rise of the Last Pendragon ensnares readers aged twelve to late adulthood. It follows a fascinating twelve-year-old girl from Liverpool, developing to her mid-teens, discovering supernatural powers for the wars to come. Real life meets fantasy, as a horrific outcome looms amidst plots delivering mythical creatures of every sort, twists, mystery, and an enthralling, heart-warming performance from Matilda.	In 2021, Matilda meets a Dragon in the Dark Forest, bound to her by an ancient prophecy, telling of her destiny to be the Lioness, rightful Queen of Camelot. Catapulted into a world of hidden realms, Matilda embarks on a thrilling voyage of discovery, spiralling through a web of death, crime, violence, and gut-wrenching emotion. Empowering, heroic, relentless, Matilda’s magnetic, impetuous character bodes well for adventure. If anyone, who does she trust? A tear-jerking finish leaves more questions than answers, but all will be revealed in the next instalment.

    Mia Fredrickson, the wry, vituperative, tragic comic, poet narrator of The Summer Without Men, has been forced to reexamine her own life. One day, out of the blue, after thirty years of marriage, Mia's husband, a renowned neuroscientist, asks her for a "pause." This abrupt request sends her reeling and lands her in a psychiatric ward. The June following Mia's release from the hospital, she returns to the prairie town of her childhood, where her mother lives in an old people's home. Alone in a rented house, she rages and fumes and bemoans her sorry fate. Slowly, however, she is drawn into the lives of those around her—her mother and her close friends, "the Five Swans," and her young neighbor with two small children and a loud angry husband—and the adolescent girls in her poetry workshop whose scheming and petty cruelty carry a threat all their own. 
     
     
     
    From the internationally bestselling author of What I Loved comes Siri Hustvedt's provocative, witty, and revelatory novel about women and girls, love and marriage, and the age-old question of sameness and difference between the sexes.

    The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.

    USA Today bestselling paranormal suspense author Dakota Cassidy, weaves a stunning tale of revenge, murder, passion, and desire, as Irish McConnell risks everything for the woman he loves. 
     
     
     
    In a world gone crazy, where the supernatural is segregated from humans, a lone vampire stands against the odds in a dystopian society, and fights for the rights of his fellow paranormals to exist. 
     
     
     
    Irish McConnell would give his immortality for a taste of Claire Montgomery. But the Fangs of Anarchy leader can't risk his biker club, his vampire clan, or his tenuous truce with werewolf Gannon Dodd, Claire's pack alpha—and her intended mate. Nope. Vamps and weres don't mix, and Irish has managed to keep that in mind for five long, lust-filled years. 
     
     
     
    But now Claire's gone and done something really, really (really!) bad, guaranteeing her doom if she's ever found out. Truce be damned, Irish won't leave her unprotected, despite the fact this is one murder-filled bundle of trouble he doesn't need. 
     
     
     
    And unfortunately for Irish, the trouble's just beginning . . .
