Against all odds, Mio has defeated the evil Nekomata and seen her love, Shinobu, restored to life. But in the wake of the battle, Mio’s unsettling connection to the katana—an ancient sword her family has been compelled to guard for generations—has grown more frightening. And now the Underworld has sent the Shikome—foul women whose feathers carry death—to spread a supernatural plague through London. With her best friend in the hospital, Shinobu’s very existence at risk, and the city in chaos, Mio realizes there is no way she can keep everyone she loves alive. What terrible sacrifice must she make to save the world?

'One of the best fantasy book series of the past decade' TIME Never trust an assassin. Celaena's story continues in this second book in the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. Celaena Sardothien won a brutal contest to become the King's Champion. But she is far from loyal to the crown. Though she goes to great lengths to hide her secret, her deadly charade becomes more difficult when she realises she is not the only one seeking justice. Her search for answers ensnares those closest to her, and no one is safe from suspicion - not the Crown Prince Dorian; not Chaol, the Captain of the Guard; not even her best friend, Nehemia, a princess with a rebel heart. Then, one terrible night, the secrets they have all been keeping lead to an unspeakable tragedy. As Celaena's world shatters, she will be forced to decide once and for all where her true loyalties lie ... and what she is willing to fight for. The second book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series returns readers to a land destroyed by liars, where one woman's truth is the only thing that can save them all.

In the riveting final volume of Zoë Marriott’s urban fantasy trilogy, all hell is breaking loose in London. Literally. It’s been a long few days since Mio stole the ancient, magical katana from her family’s attic.

With no time to succumb to guilt and grief, Mio must find a way to defeat the vengeful gods Izanagi and Izanami once and for all. Her only hope lies in the one place immortals can’t go: the realm of dreams, a shifting dimension of water and ice, echoes and memories, beauty and danger.

Mulford’s viral sensation! A magic sword. A powerful curse. An untested fae princess. And a continent on fire... Eighteen-year-old Ruadora Dammacus now possesses the Immortal Blade, a powerful artifact that might be enough to overthrow the cruel oppression threatening the land. Yet when Rua discovers the Northern Court King’s uncle is not only alive but has cast a spell on the blue witch army, she realizes that the battle is just beginning. Venturing into the Northern Court, Rua finds herself working closely with the young Northern King. Her problems are mounting, and the handsome—and perhaps evil—king is only one of them. With the eyes of her newfound family on her, can Rua prove herself worthy of the Immortal Blade and break the curse over the blue witches, or will its magic be too difficult to control? And, perhaps even more dangerous, is her growing connection to the Northern King and what that means for her people…and her heart.
