  Tarzan of the Apes is Burroughs’ exciting, if improbable, story of an English lord, left by the death of his stranded parents in the hands of a motherly African ape who raises him as her own. Although he is aware that he is different from the apes of his tribe, who are neither white nor hairless, he nevertheless regards them as his “people.” When older, larger, stronger apes decide that he an undesirable to be killed or expelled from the tribe, it is fortunate that Tarzan has learned the use of primitive weapons. 
  Although small and weak by ape standards, Tarzan is a human of god-like strength and agility to men who discover him. By studying these people, he gradually decides he is not an ape at all, but human. 
  And when he meets Jane, a beautiful American girl marooned with her father and friends on the hostile coast of Africa, Tarzan conceives love for her. When they are unexpectedly rescued before Tarzan can find a way to reveal his feelings to Jane, he determines to become civilized and follow her into the world of people – to find her and wed her, though he must cross continents and oceans, and compete with two other suitors for her hand. 
  This story was the subject of a successful film in 1932, with Tarzan being played by Johnny Weissmuller, who acted in a further eleven Tarzan films. According to Weissmuller in an interview with Mike Douglas, his famous ape-call was audio stitched together from a soprano, an alto, and a hog-caller!

  Banishment is heart-wrenching… so why choose it? 
  Cast to the winds, Kala’s to-do list is daunting… 
  - Survive another day… (so far so good) 
  - Regain her humanity… (easier said than done) 
  - Track down the “one that got away”… (he’s out there) 
  - Find a way home… (can’t give up hope) 
  - Serve the Goddess of Death… (what the hell?) 
  - Stop the Apocalypse… (seriously?!?) 
  How can a girl stop the Apocalypse when she is the Goddess of Death’s chosen weapon? 
  Kala may have a talent for killing, but it won’t help her escape what she fears most. As the only contact between the isolated communities of her world, mysterious airships demand a youth in exchange for the goods that each community so desperately needs to survive. If you have to send someone away, you choose a misfit, and Kala has always been at the top of the list. 
  Kala’s trepidation is upended by the arrival of charismatic Skye, who teases a life beyond her village, then is carried away from her on the winds. Kala is thrust into the brutal and unforgiving wider world, where she is enslaved by a lord who desires her talents as his personal assassin. The Church also wants her, believing her to be the prophesied weapon of the Goddess of Death. 
  Kala just wants to regain her freedom and her humanity, find Skye and a way home, but all of those things seem outside her reach. 
  With fresh characters and page-turning suspense, this richly imagined fantasy series explores unimaginable choices, the price of a soul, and the power of redemption.

  A werewolf, a leprechaun, and a teenage tech genius walk into a bar... 
  Sounds like a joke, right? 
  Well, for Petra Graves, supernatural assassin, self-professed loner, and deadly sorcerer, that joke has just become a reality. 
  When Graves is sent to a ruined castle in Poland to hunt down a rogue bloodmancer, she suddenly finds herself facing off against an enemy she can’t defeat. 
  Her only option? 
  To release the wild magic within and hope it doesn’t obliterate everything in its path, including her. 
  That single act sets in motion a series of bizarre circumstances which rapidly complicates Petra’s simple life, surrounding her with a cadre of misfits, igniting a burgeoning romance with a two-hundred-year-old werewolf, and placing her squarely in the crosshairs of the coming apocalypse. 
  Get ready, sh*t’s about to get weird!
