Summary

The Door in Lake Mallion brings readers into a world of magic, monsters, and the folks who love them, telling a story of dazzling performers, glowing mushroom cities, and the power of shining our light for everyone to see
		 
“A hot ticket, chockablock with memorable performances.” — Kirkus Reviews, starred review
		 
Dunstan has had big ambitions his entire life — bigger than the small lakeside town of Knockum — imagining himself heading a chorus line with a leading man he hasn’t quite cast yet. But on his way out of town for good, a gang of his classmates capture him and send him to the bottom of nearby Lake Mallion, rumored to harbor a magical door in its depths.
		 
Before Dunstan drowns, the door opens. On the other side is the Geodom of Jet and the reptilian Prince Ven, who is on the run — from his past, his destiny, and the stories people tell about him. Now Ven has a chance to tell a different story, and he’ll use Dunstan to pen the script.
		 
But the door has been keeping a dangerous secret that not even the lakebed can contain, and both worlds hang in the balance. Will the final curtain reveal that not all lights are meant to shine?

    Dedicated to the glaciers, streams, and wild places that sustain us all. 
Location: Rocky Mountains, USA 
High above the clouds, where the air is crisp and the world feels endless, two best friends—Kiko the pika and Miri the marmot—welcome the magic of spring. Their mountain is alive with rushing streams, swaying wildflowers, and the hum of creatures big and small. It has always been their playground, their home. 
But this spring feels different. The streams are quieter. The glacier is shrinking. Something is changing. 
Determined to understand what’s happening, Kiko and Miri set off on a journey to the mountain’s heart—the great glacier itself. Along the way, they meet a wise eagle, who shares a truth they never expected: the mountain’s strength isn’t just in the ice and rock—it’s in the creatures that call it home. 
Now, Kiko and Miri must find a way to bring the mountain back to life. But how can two small friends make a difference in something so vast? 
The answer may be closer than they think. And the mountain is listening.

    This recording has been digitally produced by Morgan Rice, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. In a long-anticipated new vampire series by Morgan Rice, #1 bestselling author of The Vampire Journals (1,500 five star reviews), 17-year-old Taylor Night, exiled from her trailer park in Texas to a juvenile detention camp in the rainy Northwest, tries to understand her mysterious power while surviving on an island of misfits. As an ancient evil is released and Taylor learns that Mistfalls holds a shocking secret, the ultimate test of her power—and of her love for the mysterious boy—has arrived.

POSSESS is book #14 in a new series by #1 bestselling author Morgan Rice, a USA Today bestseller and critically acclaimed author of the fantasy series The Sorcerer’s Ring (over 3,000 five star reviews) and the vampire fantasy series The Vampire Journals (over 1,500 five star reviews). 

Mistfalls Wilderness Camp is an awful place, a series of islands in the rainy Northwest, populated by delinquents and outcasts from their families. It is supposed to be a remedial place—but Taylor soon learns something else is happening here. They are training the kids here for something. But what?

These kids are all different, not normal somehow. And as Taylor herself goes through changes she doesn’t understand, she can’t help but wonder: is she different, too? 

But when she finds herself having a crush on a mysterious boy, Taylor realizes he is not what he seems—and that her own destiny may be far greater than she imagined.

But will their forbidden love take them both down for good?

Weaving a world of fantasy, love, destiny and sacrifice, WISH is a page-turning vampire saga, one that will whisk you away to another place and make you fall in love with a bold new heroine as you turn pages late into the night. With shocking twists and turns at every corner, you will not put it down. Fans of books such as Crush, Twilight, and Vampire Academy are sure to fall in love!

Future books in the series will soon be available.
