Anatéma - Éldekorált
Csak a száműzöttek tudják, mi lakozik az erdőn túl… Az Elemésztő erdő #1 Pletykálnak ezt-azt, hogy mi található Boszorkányvölgy erdején túl, ahová a bűnösök mennek meghalni. A falubeliek egyszerűen Elemésztő erdőnek hívják, mert amit az erdő elvesz, azt soha nem adja vissza.
Senki nem merészkedne még csak közelébe se annak a helynek – hacsak eszét nem vesztette. Vagy ha száműzött. Maevyth Bronwicknek esze ágában sincs berontani a fák közé, ebbe a ködbe burkolózó labirintusba, de egy tragikus esemény folytán muszáj átvágnia a csontok boltívén túlra, túl a határon, ahol halandó még soha nem járt. Fantasztikus és sötét világba kerül, amely éppoly veszedelmes, mint amennyire vonzó. Ezen a helyen él Eidolon elátkozott ura. Neki kell elrejtenie Maevytht a mágusok elől, akik a nőt egy okkult jóslat nevében akarják feláldozni. Zevander Rydainn, aki skorpióknak parancsol, hidegfejű, számító bérgyilkos – a legveszélyesebb egész Etíriában. Hamarabb vetné oda Maevytht a tűzdrákók martalékául, mintsem hogy megvédje és garantálja a lány biztonságát. Márpedig ez lesz a feladata. Igéző, gótikus dark fantasy a Nocticadia szerzőjétől. Egy lány arra kényszerül, hogy átlépje a tiltott határvonalat, és a halandók birodalmából az elátkozott lelkek és torz teremtmények ijesztő világába kerül.
Keri Lake USA Today Bestseller szerző. Gótikus románcaiban gyakori motívum a bosszúállás, felbukkannak bennük démonok, és előszeretettel ábrázol morálisan kétes figurákat. Két gyermeke van, Michiganben él. Főszereplői gyakran merész, állhatatos figurák, antihősök, női szereplői erős, temperamentumos jellemek. Szeret olvasni, zenét hallgatni, utazni, szereti az étcsokoládét és a vörösbort.
Az Anatéma sötét, gótikus fantasy, Az Elemésztő erdő címet viselő széria első könyve. Élvezni fogják azok az olvasók, akik szeretik a cselekményben tobzódó, erős atmoszférájú történeteket, amelyek egyedi mágikus rendszerre épülnek, a lassan fortyogó románcot, amelyet egy csepp horror fűszerez.

They should be celebrating, but Tella isn't free yet.

Vörösbegy a tölgytrónuson - Éldekorált
Annál, hogy rettegsz a szörnyetegtől, csak egy rosszabb van: ha beleszeretsz.
Kierse épp most szegte meg a Szörnyegyezményt. Újra.
Nem egészen az ő hibája. A feladat egyszerűnek tűnt: ellopni a koboldok által készített karkötőt a nimfák királynőjétől, a saját palotájában. Aztán elcserélni az ékszert az igazságra - arra, ami Kierse múltjából hiányzik.
Csakhogy minden félresiklott.
Kierse-t Gravesnek kellett kimentenie, ennek az árnyékban élő, sármos szörnyetegnek, aki sajnos pontosan tudja, mi kell a lánynak.
Márpedig Graves semmit nem ad ingyen. Kierse-nek részt kell vennie egy lopásban, ami a legnagyobb hatalmú szörnyeket fogja Kierse ellen fordítani, köztük Graves halálos ellenségét, a Tölgykirályt.
Egy titokzatos műtárgyat kell megszerezni, és Graves csak Kierse-szel együtt tudja ellopni. Kierse dolga csak annyi, hogy beengedje Gravest.
De ha egyszer beengedtél egy szörnyet, azt egy életre megjegyzed. Mert a szörnynek nagyon nehéz ellenállni.
"A fegyver csak annyira erős, amekkora a gyengesége, az enyém pedig te vagy."

Vér a fényes égbolton
A mágia ipari utópiává formálta Tiran városát – de komoly árért cserébe. És most eljött a törlesztés ideje.
Sciona négyéves korában vesztette el a szüleit, ezért egész életében úgy érezte, hogy többet kell bizonyítania a diáktársainál. Az azóta eltelt húsz évben minden idejét és energiáját a mágia tanulmányozásának szentelte, azon eszelős vágytól hajtva, hogy teljesítse a lehetetlent, és ő legyen az első nő, akit felvesznek a Legfőbb Magisztrátusba. De amikor felküzdi magát a főmágusi rangra, rájön arra, hogy a valódi kihívások csak most várják. Ráadásul új kollégái hamar az értésére adják, hogy nem látják szívesen, és asszisztensként egy egyszerű takarítót osztanak be mellé.
Csakhogy sem Sciona, sem a többi mágus nem sejti, ki is az új segéd valójában. Thomil egykor nem takarító volt: a várost körülvevő mágikus határon túlról származik, egy nomád vadász törzsből. Tíz éve élte túl azt a veszélyes átkelést, amely a családját elpusztította. Most pedig, hogy egy főmágus mellett dolgozik, végre lehetősége nyílik megérteni azokat az erőket, amelyek elpusztították a törzsét, száműzték szülőföldjéről és a tiraniakat hatalmon tartották.
Ellentmondásokkal terhelt szövetségük során Sciona és Thomil egy olyan ősi titok nyomára bukkannak, amely örökre megváltoztathatja a mágiat – ha előbb bele nem pusztulnak. Sciona egész életét az igazság keresésének szentelte… de vajon mennyit ér egyetlen igazság, ha a civilizáció jövője a tét?
Katabasis
Katabasis, noun, Ancient Greek. The story of a hero's descent to the underworld.
Grad student Alice Law has only ever had one goal: to become the brightest mind in the field of analytic magick.
But the only person who can make her dream come true is dead and - inconveniently - in Hell. And Alice, along with her biggest rival Peter Murdoch, is going after him.
But Hell is not as the philosophers claim, its rules are upside-down, and if she's going to get out of there alive, she and Peter will have to work together.
That's if they can agree on anything.
Will they triumph, or kill each other trying?

Ak existujú miesta pohlcované temnotou, príbytky, kam živý nepatria, potom je Crochemort Manor určite jedným z nich.
Oriel a Silence sú neobyčajné deti. Silence počuje hlasy a Oriel vidí budúcnosť. Po tragickej nehode sa z nich stali siroty a teraz sú nečakane pozvaní do sídla starých rodičov, o ktorých existencii nemali ani tušenia. Whisper Town je bizarné miesto, ktoré je odtrhnuté od zvyšku sveta – nie je tam internet, pevná linka, pošta ani autá. Navyše po zotmení všetko zahaľuje desivá hmla, z ktorej vyliezajú strašidelné tvory, vraždiace jeho obyvateľov. Mesto je prekliate a zdá sa, že kľúčom k rozlúsknutiu tejto záhady sú samotné dvojčatá.
