Zhara

S. Jae-Jones - Engels - Paperback

Sailor Moon meets Cinder in Guardians of Dawn: Zhara, the start of a new, richly imagined fantasy series from S. Jae-Jones, the New York Times bestselling author of Wintersong.

Magic flickers.
Love flames.
Chaos reigns.

Magic is forbidden throughout the Morning Realms. Magicians are called abomination, and blamed for the plague of monsters that razed the land twenty years before.

Jin Zhara already had enough to worry about—appease her stepmother’s cruel whims, looking after her blind younger sister, and keeping her own magical gifts under control—without having to deal with rumors of monsters re-emerging in the marsh. But when a chance encounter with an easily flustered young man named Han brings her into contact with a secret magical liberation organization called the Guardians of Dawn, Zhara realizes there may be more to these rumors than she thought. A mysterious plague is corrupting the magicians of Zanhei and transforming them into monsters, and the Guardians of Dawn believe a demon is responsible.

In order to restore harmony and bring peace to the world, Zhara must discover the elemental warrior within, lest the balance between order and chaos is lost forever.

How much would you give to win the world?

Zhu Yuanzhang, the Radiant King, is riding high after her victory that tore southern China from its Mongol masters. Now she burns with a new desire: to seize the throne and crown herself emperor.

But Zhu isn’t the only one with imperial ambitions. Her neighbor in the south, the courtesan Madam Zhang, wants the throne for her husband—and she’s strong enough to wipe Zhu off the map. To stay in the game, Zhu will have to gamble everything on a risky alliance with an old enemy: the talented but unstable eunuch general Ouyang, who has already sacrificed everything for a chance at revenge on his father’s killer, the Great Khan.

Unbeknownst to the southerners, a new contender is even closer to the throne. The scorned scholar Wang Baoxiang has maneuvered his way into the capital, and his lethal court games threaten to bring the empire to its knees. For Baoxiang also desires revenge: to become the most degenerate Great Khan in history—and in so doing, make a mockery of every value his Mongol warrior family loved more than him.

All the contenders are determined to do whatever it tak

There will be blood.

Ace of Spades meets House of Hollow in this villain origin story.

Laure Mesny is a perfectionist with an axe to grind. Despite being constantly overlooked in the elite and cutthroat world of the Parisian ballet, she will do anything to prove that a Black girl can take center stage. To level the playing field, Laure ventures deep into the depths of the Catacombs and strikes a deal with a pulsating river of blood.

The primordial power Laure gains promises influence and adoration, everything she’s dreamed of and worked toward. With retribution on her mind, she surpasses her bitter and privileged peers, leaving broken bodies behind her on her climb to stardom.

But even as undeniable as she is, Laure is not the only monster around. And her vicious desires make her a perfect target for slaughter. As she descends into madness and the mystifying underworld beneath her, she is faced with the ultimate choice: continue to break herself for scraps of validation or succumb to the darkness that wants her exactly as she is—monstrous heart and all. That is, if the god-killer doesn’t catch her first.

From debut author Jamison Shea comes I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast Is Me, a slow-burn horror that lifts a veil on the institutions that profit on exclusion and the toll of giving everything to a world that will never love you back.

Niets past beter bij een Hawthorne dan winnen
Nieuw boek in de bestsellerserie ‘Het Hawthorne-mysterie‘!

Grayson Hawthorne zou in de voetsporen van zijn schatrijke grootvader treden; het fortuin laten groeien en zijn familie beschermen. Daar bestond geen twijfel over. Inmiddels is de grote Tobias Hawthorne dood en zijn familie onterfd, maar sommige van zijn lessen zijn Grayson bijgebleven. Wanneer zijn halfzussen dreigen te ontdekken wat er met hun vader is gebeurd, doet hij wat hij het beste kan: zorgen dat de zaak wordt opgelost – efficiënt, effectief, genadeloos. En zonder dat gevoelens en emoties hem in de weg staan.

Jameson Hawthorne is een gokker, een sensatiezoeker, een spelletjesspeler. Als zijn mysterieuze vader opduikt en hem om een gunst vraagt, kan Jameson de uitdaging dan ook niet weerstaan. Om te slagen moet hij infiltreren in de meest exclusieve ondergrondse club van Londen, waar aristocraten, politici en buitengewoon rijke mensen gokken om geld en geheimen. Daar moet hij een onmogelijk spel met een torenhoge inzet winnen. Gelukkig leeft Jameson Hawthorne voor het onmogelijke.

Beiden verwikkeld in hun eigen strijd, moeten Grayson en Jameson – met hulp van hun broers en Avery – besluiten wie ze willen zijn en wat ze bereid zijn op te geven om te winnen.

‘De Hawthorne-broers‘ speelt zich af tussen het laatste hoofdstuk en de epiloog van ‘De laatste zet‘.
