This town's only big enough for one sorcerer... Jane Fortune is a talented young businesswoman, having turned her hobby of making candles and bath bombs into a decently lucrative career. The north Georgia mountains attract tourists, after all, and who doesn't like to smell nice? But Ragged Gap's witchier townsfolk know about some of Jane's other talents. Rumor has it that she can make problems disappear, especially if someone is being abused. Jane doesn't advertise her gifts, nor does she take payment for her "special" jobs, but she's highly effective. Unbeknownst to her neighbors, Jane is a sorcerer, the real deal. It's a pity that her existence is evidence of a crime, at least by Pactlands standards. Jane's never been into the pocket world her long-missing mother called home, as her father was merely human-and the adopted father who raised her, a sorcerer in his own right, didn't turn her mother in when he had the chance. While Jane's curious about the Pactlands, she doesn't want to put her dad in danger by exposing herself. But then she finds a dead faun in her yard, and a stranger with talent of her own begins promising Jane's neighbors magical power beyond their wildest dreams. Ragged Gap is Jane's town, and she'll defend it...even if that means revealing her existence to the people who could cost her everything she holds dear.
The only constant is change... On the surface, the realms coexist more peacefully than they ever have. The Three of Faerie keep the chaotic elements of their courts in check by holding their people on a tight leash. Arik, the young king of Conota, enjoys calm in his land and eagerly anticipates the birth of his first child. And while Toula's quarter-century as the Arcanum's grand magus hasn't always been easy, her tenure has brought stability to the mortal realm's magical factions. But placid waters can hide nightmares in their depths. In Faerie, long-brewing resentment against the Three is poised to boil over, and a new power on the ascent threatens old alliances and the tenuous peace. While Toula attempts triage, a movement from within the Arcanum sees a prize within its grasp: the grand magus's chain of office. Meanwhile, the Away Team stumbles across a forgotten artifact from Eadwig's past, a weapon of war with catastrophic potential. Regimes that rise must one day fall, and this time, magic may not be enough to avert the impending disaster...
Ruling Faerie isn't all it's cracked up to be...Colin Leffee-Lord Coileán these days-has it all. His once-lost love is back in his life and willing to give him another chance, their daughter's magical bind and fake memories seem secure, and his hold on his mother's vacated throne hasn't wavered during his six-month reign. True, ruling a faerie court comes with the headache of superintending his quarrelsome people and placating his hostile siblings, but Coileán envisions smooth sailing ahead.But then his resident would-be knight stumbles onto a baby dragon. A sea monster in south Florida sends the merrow into a panic. The captain of his guard learns a secret with consequences for the future of the courts. Meanwhile, the Arcanum has its own nasty surprise in store for the novice king.And with Mab's demise, a new power is rising in the Gray Lands-one willing to do whatever it takes to seize his birthright.For Coileán, the cost of his throne may be everything-and everyone-he holds dear.
Some secrets should stay buried... From where Kitty Connolly is standing, the summer looks promising in Glastonbury. With her boyfriend by her side, her sisters preparing for glory at the Arcanum's annual Games, and the Away Team's resident dragon off on paternity leave, Kitty sees smooth sailing ahead, a season unbothered by pesky fires in need of smothering. But that's before Kitty meets Quinn Dellucci, a young wizard in desperate need of remedial training. All Quinn wants is a job in art conservation. Unfortunately, her stress can blow up cars. She never expected to stumble across magic, much less the nasty surprise hiding in her family tree. And Quinn's not the only concerning discovery. A mundane archaeological excavation in the west of Ireland draws the Away Team's attention when a stone coffin wrapped in spells is found deep beneath a parking lot. Inside that coffin lies the key to one of the Arcanum's greatest cover-ups...and a clue to the location of a legendary grail. The Away Team excels at retrieving misplaced magical items. But sometimes, things go missing for a reason, and not all that is lost should be found...
Fleeing her fate was the easy part... One year ago, Lady Imaranta of High Vale escaped Conota-the so-called Gray Lands-and joined her human mother in the mortal realm. Living in a small Oklahoma town as Hope Lozano, keeping her true appearance masked by magic, she's tried to blend in and make a life for herself as she adjusts to her freedom. But the locals still regard her with suspicion, she knows precious little about her new home, and then there's the tiny matter of the dead to consider. Cynaeli are natural mediums, and Hope, who's particularly gifted, has to contend with a constant stream of requests from the departed. Still, even if Hope's path forward isn't entirely clear, she thinks she has matters under control. That is, until Arik shows up. Another highborn cynaeli in Oklahoma would be dangerous enough, but Arik is wounded and weakening...and he carries an ominous message. Back in Conota, no one has yet stepped forward to claim the late queen's throne, and the rival factions are massing their armies. Worse still, Arik's father fears that another of his sons might be the missing monarch-a son who, like Hope, fled Conota. Now, an insatiable force is loose in the mortal realm, hunting him down, and no one in its path is safe. If Hope and Arik want to save Arik's brother from a bloody end, they'll need to go on the run-and with lives and a throne in the balance, they'll need help from the living and the dead.
