One mission. One curse. No escape. Zaira doesn't want a hero. She needs a weapon. To save her sister from a soul-devouring curse, she has to cross The Shallows - a nightmare landscape of ruined magic, shifting paths, and vicious creatures that eat people alive. Her guide - Thane Valkor: sorcerer, assassin, walking red flag. His name clears rooms. His magic kills quietly. And whatever he's really after, it's not salvation. He promises to help. He might even mean it. But Zaira knows better than to trust a liar with a blade and ice in his veins. She just doesn't have a choice.

This breathtaking first edition is available for a limited time and while supplies last! - THE GODS WANT HER DEAD...HADES WILL BURY THEM. You'd think I'd have learned by now: Don't mouth off to deities. Don't fall for the King of the Underworld. And definitely don't get dragged into a divine deathmatch where I'm the cursed mortal prize. But here I am - trapped in Tartarus, humanity's worst pit stop, squaring off against monsters who make the gods look merciful. Titans, twisted by centuries of rage and ruin, are sealed behind seven ancient locks. And guess what? I'm the key. To escape, I'll have to survive every horrifying trial they throw at me. To win, I might have to become something the gods never saw coming. Oh, and Hades? He's about to break every rule the gods ever wrote. Because to save me . . . the god of death will burn the world. But if I break free? So do the Titans. And the world won't just suffer - it'll beg for the end.

THE GODS PLAY FOR POWER. HADES PLAYS FOR HER. LIMITED FIRST PRINT RUN - featuring spray-painted edges with a stenciled design, plus gorgeously detailed endpapers. This exclusive edition is available only while supplies last. The gods love to play with us mere mortals. And every hundred years, we let them… I have never been favored by the gods, thanks to Zeus. Cursed and working as a lowly clerk for the Order of Thieves, I survive by keeping my head down. No easy feat in Zeus' patron city of San Francisco. Until the night I cross paths with a different god. The worst god. Hades. For the first time, the ruthless King of the Underworld has entered the Crucible, the deadly contest where gods choose mortals to fight in their stead. And he has chosen me - a sarcastic nobody with a curse on her shoulders. Am I his pawn, his weapon, or something else entirely? Every time he calls me his, my heart betrays me. Because Hades is playing by his own rules… and Death will win at any cost.

Shield of Sparrows is a slow-burn, high-stakes romantasy for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel. I’ve spent my life kneeling to their will and to my father's. As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king. I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood. But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my father’s throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life. Now I’m crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him bound to a future I didn’t choose and a husband I barely know. Everyone wants me to be something I’m not a queen, a spy, a sacrifice. But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there’s power in being underestimated? And what if for the first time I reached for it? Tropes: Enemies to Lovers Magic, Myths and Monsters Slow-Burn Forced Proximity Arranged Marriage Hidden Identity High Stakes
