Gender-bending half fae, half kraken shifter Iolani Lionheart has been handed a perfect excuse to stay in Florida with her new flame, but it turns out her demon godfather may have other reasons for keeping her where she is. A new goddess overlord has arrived in Florida, and Io has been tasked with helping her settle in. Old flames and interesting new friends are drawing Io in, and for once she feels like she might have a chance at happiness. Until the sweetest man she knows goes missing.... Author’s Notes *Kraken’s Cult books are longer novellas to shorter novels (40,000-50,000+) words. They may or may not include cliff-hangers. Typically, one plot thread will be resolved or “resolved for now,” while others may continue to build throughout the series. There’s none of that “book that ends abruptly in the middle and I’m gonna call it a novella” stuff. *Includes mentions of past trauma, including but not limited to: implied threat of sexual abuse as a minor, bullying, violence, emotional trauma. *So much swearing. Seriously. *Explicit sex with varying levels of heat and kink possible. *Series contains M/F, F/F, M/M, MMMMFF romance. *Characters with gender fluidity, non-binary/intersex characters, gender bending/gender swap, gray ace, and any other orientation you can think of may appear in this series. *Let’s face it, you’re thinking about reading a book with a kraken main character. There may be tentacles put to use in ways that make some people uncomfortable. It’s just to be expected.

Assessment innovation tied to technology is greatly needed in a wide variety of assessment applications. This book adopts an interdisciplinary perspective to learn from advances in developing technology enhanced innovative assessments from multiple fields. The book chapters address the development of virtual assessments including game?based assessment, simulation?based assessment, and narrative based assessment as well as how simulation and game based assessments serve both formative and summative purposes. Further, chapters address the critical challenge of integrating assessment directly into the learning process so that teacher effectiveness and student learning can be enhanced. Two chapters specifically address the psychometric challenges related to innovative items. One chapter talks about evaluating the psychometric properties of innovative items while the other chapter presents a new psychometric model for calibrating innovative items embedded in multiple contexts. In addition, validity issues are addressed related to technology enhanced innovative assessment. It is hoped that the book provides readers with rich and useful information about the development of several types of virtual assessments from multiple perspectives. The authors include experts from industry where innovative items have been used for many years and experts from research institutes and universities who have done pioneering work related to developing innovative items with formative applications to facilitate learning. In addition, expert advice has been provided on validating such work.

The enthralling examination of one of the most popular and most intriguing animals in the deep blue sea The ocean is the last remaining source of profound mystery and discovery on Earth with eighty percent of it still largely unexplored; thus, it is of perennial fascination. In Kraken: The Curious, Exciting, and Slightly Disturbing Science of Squid, journalist Wendy Williams introduces one of the ocean’s most charismatic, monstrous, enigmatic, and curious inhabitants: the squid. More than just calamari, squid species are fascinatingly odd creatures, with much to teach us about our own species, not to mention the obsessive interest so many of us can't help but have for the enormous beast that is the giant squid, which is quick to attack sperm whales, and even submarines and boats. Williams also examines other equally enthralling cephalopods, including the octopus and the cuttlefish, and explores their otherworldly abilities, such as camouflage and bioluminescence. Kraken takes the reader on a wild ride through the world of squid science and adventure, along the way answering some riddles about how the human brain works, what intelligence really is, and what monsters lie in the deep. Wendy Williams weaves a rich narrative tapestry around her subject, drawing powerfully on the passions and discoveries of scientists, fisherman, and squid enthusiasts around the world.

A spark will kindle a blaze that could sweep the world to ash, and an enemy from beyond the grave will strike that spark.

Kraken, a monstrous experiment, meets Kitten, an innocent-looking girl. Kraken has an insatiable appetite for hunting. Kraken has been bored because it has been so long since she hunted and now she comes across this all so helpless tiny child. Once upon a time... or that was how the story should have started, but was this tale only a story? Maybe this tale was the beginning of something new, horrible, and wondrous. The Kraken Project, a monstrous experiment living within the Sanctum, meets a tiny experiment called the Pandora Project. Kraken calls her Kitten, but Kitten isn't as innocent as she looks. Behind the face of a child hides a fiend even more monstrous than Kraken.

The tentacles are coming out. Iolani Lionheart is done playing around. Caught up in the schemes of her demon godfather, she and her (sometimes difficult) cult of lovers travel across the country to stop a powerful human group bent on genocide. Bashing baddies and saving the day is nothing new for Io. But nothing is ever as it seems with her ridiculous family. And convincing the last of her reluctant lovers to trust her with their hearts (and their darkness) might prove more challenging than she anticipated…. But hey, there’s t-shirts! Author’s Notes *This book in particular includes scenes that may be distasteful for some readers (but are contextual and acceptable if you’re a hungry goblin), including knife play and some mild pain/blood play. (Don’t worry, it’s consensual and krakens are made of hardy stuff, but you’ve been warned). *Includes mentions of past trauma, including but not limited to: implied threat of sexual abuse as a minor, bullying, violence, emotional trauma in the characters’ backstories. *So much swearing. Seriously. *Explicit sex with varying levels of heat and kink possible. *Series contains M/F, F/F, M/M, MMMMFF romance. *Characters with gender fluidity, non-binary/intersex characters, gender bending/gender swap, gray ace, and any other orientation you can think of may appear in this series. *Let’s face it, you’re thinking about reading a book with a kraken main character. There may be tentacles put to use in ways that make some people uncomfortable. It’s just to be expected. *Kraken’s Cult books are longer novellas to shorter novels (40,000-50,000+) words.
