Stray Cat Strut 3

RavensDagger

Summary

A wave of kidnappings leads cybernetic samurai Cat LeBlanc deep into the labyrinthine tunnels beneath the city in this action-packed cyberpunk adventure.
In the megacity of New Montreal, those with wealth and power live in towers high above the teeming masses struggling to get by day after day. When the poor and destitute vanish, the police can't be bothered to spend time and resources investigating. But Franny, a nun who isn't afraid to practice what her religion preaches, sets out to find the missing by confronting street gangs with nothing but a baseball bat . . . and a lot of pent-up frustration.
Afraid for Franny's safety, pyrotechnic nun-samurai Gomorrah recruits Catherine "Cat" LeBlanc to protect her zealous friend and get to the bottom of the mysterious mass disappearances. And get to the bottom is exactly what Cat must do when she discovers the gang known as the Sewer Dragons has been abducting people into their underworld.
Within the cavernous channels that spread below the entirety of the city, the Dragons have created their own society of towns and nations. Their bodies have been augmented to withstand the poisonous toxins of waste so they can work cleaning out sewers and ensuring New Montreal has fresh water. In return, the city authorities leave the Dragons alone.
But Cat isn't willing to sacrifice people, simply because they lack money, just to keep the plumbing on. And when she, Gomorrah, and Franny descend into the Dragons' lair, they'll uncover the horrific truth behind the kidnappings—and be led into battle with not only sewer-dwelling cyborgs but also the dirtiest of politicians . . .

Clawing for Survival

Kevin McLaughlin, Michael Anderle

Cast out by dragonkind, threatened by his own family . . . A dragon with nothing left to lose can be a dangerous thing. 
 
 
 
Unless, of course, that dragon is Galen Stormwing. He's never been very dangerous. He was a failure at school, a failure at gaining powers, and a failure at keeping them. 
 
 
 
Now his own parents have told him he needs to do something to impress them within three days, or they'll have him executed as an embarrassment to the clan. He does the only sensible thing he can think of. 
 
 
 
He runs for it. Survival trumps pride, as far as Galen is concerned. Most dragons won't go to Canada, realm of the dwarf people, so that's where he must go. 
 
 
 
But he's not the only one fighting for survival. Vala is a young dwarf in school to become an engineer when she begins exhibiting magical powers. There's never been a dwarf mage before, and not all her people are thrilled about it. In fact, some of them would rather see Vala dead than allow their race to become polluted in that manner. 
 
 
 
Both of them are vulnerable, lost, alone—and hunted. But together, they might just have what they need to save each other!

Phoenix Feathers Adorned in...

Hang Nguyen

In the ritual circles of Emberfall, where fire dancers twirl phoenix feathers in blazing rites and rain spirits grace the air with downpour kisses, dancer Aria performs a ritual that quenches her flames with spirit Liriel, whose tears adorn the feathers with iridescent joy. Their dance, adorned in tearful vows, harmonizes fire and rain—or drowns the circle in steamy conflict. As they spin through feather-strewn pyres and rain-veiled altars, contested by flame zealots and storm sentinels, Aria's fiery twirl merges with Liriel's graceful cascade, revealing a phoenix legend of tear-quenched rebirth. When a dried feather summons drought wraiths, they must dance the tears to renew the grace. In the swirl of adorned rituals, where every feather gleams with sorrow and every raindrop sparkles with passion, their love becomes the ritual that balances eternal elements.
