Zeigt Titel in Zeitgenössische Fantasy

Der zweite und abschließende Teil von Liza Grimms gefeierter Urban Fantasy. Bedenke, was du dir wünschst, denn es könnte in Erfüllung gehen... Für den Edinburgher Zirkel junger Hexen und Hexer scheint plötzlich alles möglich zu sein, als das mysteriöse Artefakt "Talus" auftaucht, denn der magische Würfel ist in der Lage, jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Doch ein derart machtvoller Gegenstand zieht finstere Mächte an wie ein Magnet - und ein Herzenswunsch kann eine äußerst gefährliche Angelegenheit sein.

A devastating plague, the missing cure, and a healer who didn’t plan for love… I’m Faelynn, a healer and servant of the fae God. I’d sworn off every fae male who set his sights on me … until him. Dreythis was … unexpected. He has the answers to the questions I face, and resisting his pull on our journey will be no easy feat. The fae in my city are sick with a mysterious plague, and my healer magic has done little to help. With so many dying, I never expected that crossing paths with this fae warrior would lead me to the cure. But will solving one problem only bring me to another?

For Maddy Madrigal, preserving the peace in her exclusive neighborhood feels like walking a razor’s edge. Her grasp on her newfound magic is tenuous at best. And now, there are disturbing signs the spell she cast to keep supernatural entities at bay may be beginning to falter.

Broke and rejected by both the Adventurer and Courier Guilds, Alex doesn't slay monsters, but he does need a job before he hits rock bottom―and he'll take whatever he can get. That's when he stumbles into Nino's: a hole-in-the-wall slice shop run by an eccentric pizzaiolo . . . who happens to be a lich. Alex is hired to deliver delicious pizza to dungeon bosses in sixty minutes or less―or else. Armed with a seemingly useless skillset, he'll need to dodge adventurers, deal with scorned exes, and hope for loot in place of tips.

Now that Missy has finally graduated from West Point, she can marry her soulmate Mike. Of course, she also has joined her Special Forces team as their executive officer and there are lots of added responsibilities which go along with that role. Can she carry those out and still handle her role as Alpha for her werewolf pack? Then, too, she has that other role she plays in Russia, being a spy while also being a celebrity. One thing leads to another while doing that and soon she finds someone has targeted her for death.

One accidental spell in a dusty library archive changes everything–binding her to four women she's only just begun to call friends, and awakening power none of them knew they had. But magic has enemies. A violent order called the Torch Bearers has been hunting witches for generations. They've already burned other covens out of existence. Now they're coming for Darby's. Five women. No training. No time. And a bond forged in concrete, grit, and the kind of magic that refuses to die. And the unbreakable bond of women who refuse to burn.

When the god of chaos calls the shots, you can expect Hel on Earth. And maybe hell, too. Almost everything was back to normal: governments had been restored, cities were rebuilding, and the existence of the ancient gods remained a secret. Mostly. Only one thing was left to do: rescue the witches trapped in hell. When Sera discovers the only way in and out of the underworld is to become immortal—the one thing she most definitely does not want to do in life—she must make the decision of a lifetime, an everlasting lifetime.

Du wirst einen der sieben Prinzen heiraten. Und du wirst die nächste Königin. Das bist du deiner Familie schuldig. Neah muss auf die Venturi Academy gehen.

Jeder der sieben Prinzen gibt alles, um Neah von sich zu überzeugen und der künftige König zu werden.

Als ich starb und ein Weltenreisender wurde, hatte das System eine Störung. Machte mir das etwas aus? Kein bisschen. Immerhin hatte ich mein ganzes Leben davon geträumt, zu verschiedenen Welten zu reisen! Es stellte sich heraus, dass die Fehlfunktion des Systems mir nur Vorteile brachte. Ich hatte nicht nur nichts verloren, ich hatte etwas wirklich Cooles gewonnen. Da mir diese Gelegenheit nun mal in den Schoß gefallen war, wollte ich sie auch voll und ganz ausnutzen und der coolste Typ aller Zeiten werden. Nein, mehr als das — ich würde eine Legende werden.

They call me the Spider. I'm the most feared assassin in the South -- when I'm not busy at the Pork Pit cooking up the best barbecue in Ashland. As a Stone elemental, I can hear everything from the whispers of the gravel beneath my feet to the vibrations of the soaring Appalachian Mountains above me. My Ice magic also comes in handy for making the occasional knife. But I don't use my powers on the job unless I absolutely have to. Call it professional pride.

Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop students with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes.

Like the desert gods and spirits lingering outside Selena’s house at night, keeping watch.
