TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION . . . AND IT’LL KILL YOU A WHOLE LOT FASTER!When Lynn Raven set out to win the championship for groundbreaking augmented reality game TransDimensional Hunter, the worst she thought she’d face was sunburn, mosquito bites, and annoying spectators. The more she plays, though, the higher the stakes become—and the stranger the obstacles she has to face. From dodging fans-turned-stalker to managing inter-team sabotage to surviving the increasingly bizarre antics
of a game algorithm that seems to have it out for her, Lynn isn’t sure how much more she can take. And then the other shoe drops. If Lynn has any hope of coming out alive and on top, she’ll have to up her game—and that of her team—beyond anything she thought possible. And even that might not be enough. Get Behind the Veil here.
YOU CAN’T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT . . .After saving the world (again), Thomas Quinn wants nothing more but to return to a quiet life, be forgotten by the world, and run his little shop of esoteric goods in Philadelphia. But it seems fate has other plans, when he accidentally uncovers a problem in the source of magic itself, and he’s once again called upon to figure out what it all means. His investigation takes him back to the Otherworld, where he tangles with a beautiful and mysterious Faerie maiden, monsters of myth and legend, the dangerous intricacies of Fae hospitality, beings once
regarded as gods, and eventually the nature of reality itself. And on top of all that, someone keeps trying to kill him. So much for a quiet life. Action might just be what he needs. . . . Get Blood and Fate here.

Or will he fall into the clutches of a madman bent on remaking both the Gestalt and the Unreal in his own image?
