The Cruel Prince meets To Kill a Kingdom in this seductive YA fantasy debut, in which a siren must choose between protecting her family and following her heart in a prejudiced kingdom where her existence is illegal.
Saoirse Sorkova survives on secrets.
That she is a siren and her existence is a crime.
That she cannot always control her deadly powers.
That she does not hate the handsome, thoughtful Prince Hayes, whose father would put her to death.
But when Saoirse and Hayes are forced to work together to hunt a killer, Saoirse's secrets are brought dangerously close to the light. Because Saoirse is the killer, and it's a only matter of time before Hayes finds out . . .

between parallel universes, linked by the magical city of London.
It has been four months since a mysterious obsidian stone fell into
his possession and he met Delilah Bard. Four months since the Dane
twins of White London fell, and the stone was cast with Holland's
dying body back into Black London.Now Kell is visited by dreams of
ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila. And as Red
London prepares for the Element Games-an international competition
of magic-a certain pirate ship draws closer. But another London is
coming back to life. The balance of magic is perilous, and for one
city to flourish, another must fall...

A love story with real bite . . .
Following an incident that involved accidentally almost killing her
best friend, 18-year-old Gabrielle is sent to stay with her grandmother
in a Gothic castle in Whitby for the summer.
There, Gabrielle befriends nice-guy Ethan, the handsome young builder
renovating the castle. She has no choice but to ignore the attraction
between them because Gabby has a secret: she has recently discovered
that she's a soucouyant - a bloodthirsty vampire with fire powers from
Caribbean lore.
As Gabrielle struggles to control her thirst for blood, she joins a
secret support group with other young vampires.
Then she meets rebellious, self-loathing Alok, whose adoptive father
leads a group of local vampire hunters. And Alok has a deadly secret of
his own.
Tensions between vampires and hunters rise as vicious attacks take the
small seaside town by storm, and Gabrielle finds herself caught in a
dangerous love triangle. As worlds collide and secrets unravel, she
must face the disastrous consequences of her actions . . .
There's so much to love about October - Halloween, pumpkin
everything and MAGIC. Especially magic. But for nervous young witch
Clemmie, this October might see the stars descend on her for the
first time, bringing with them a whole month of chaotic new power.
She's spent twelve years watching her mum, aunts and cousin receive
their October power and knows that, for the Merlyns, magic can get
very messy. And there are those who want to harness their magic and
make it last beyond October. It's a bold experiment, until Clemmie
and her coven find themselves in mortal danger. What price must be
paid for magic that never ends? Or for having magic at all?
Featuring a silver-foil-embossed cloth cover, a ribbon marker and
sprayed silver edges, this gorgeous volume is filled with beautiful
illustrations and precise notes detailing the secret life of
mermaids. In 1872, intrepid (fictional) explorer Darcy Delamare
disguised herself as a man to claim a place on board the (real
life) scientific expedition of the HMS Challenger. She made a
record of her findings on the trip, recounting the extraordinary
sea creatures she witnessed: creatures that, until now, nobody had
believed really existed... mermaids! Following on from the
beautiful A Natural History of Fairies and A Natural History of
Magick, this beautifully illustrated vintage album is filled with
descriptions and illustrations of Delamare's findings, from tales
of mermaids in ancient lore to more recent sightings as well as
facts on the beliefs and superstitions surrounding these elusive
creatures. Children will delight in discovering the anatomy,
behaviour and lifecycles of the Merfolk and how they have hidden
themselves from human discovery over millennia. Pore over the
anatomy of tails, learn how these mysterious creatures communicate
and immerse yourself in their underwater world. The Folklore Field
Guides series is a charming collection of beautifully illustrated
handbooks on topics of lore and legend. Fascinating facts are
accompanied by breathtaking illustrations, all presented in an
engaging narrative form.
In the magical city of Nevermoor, long-buried secrets are coming to
light, and Morrigan Crow's life is about to turn upside down.
When Morrigan is invited into Nevermoor's wealthy Silver District, she
discovers a world of extravagance and a family mystery she's eager to
unravel. She could never imagine where it will lead: a white wedding, a
golden dragon and a red pool of blood.
Embroiled in suspicion and danger, Morrigan leaps head first into a
murder investigation, while also grappling with her ever-growing
Wundersmith powers. And although her friends are there to help, she
fears that could change if they learn she's keeping a terrible secret
of her own.
As shadowy forces awaken in Nevermoor, can Morrigan find a killer and
solve the mystery in her own past ... before the clock strikes midnight?
Winner of the Blue Peter Best Story Award 2016 and the Scottish
Children's Book Award 2016, and the North East Book Award 2015.
When the mysterious Nowhere Emporium arrives in Glasgow, orphan
Daniel Holmes stumbles upon it quite by accident. Before long, the
'shop from nowhere' -- and its owner, Mr Silver -- draw Daniel into
a breathtaking world of magic and enchantment. Recruited as Mr
Silver's apprentice, Daniel learns the secrets of the Emporium's
vast labyrinth of passageways and rooms -- rooms that contain
wonders beyond anything Daniel has ever imagined. But when Mr
Silver disappears, and a shadow from the past threatens everything,
the Emporium and all its wonders begin to crumble. Can Daniel save
his home, and his new friends, before the Nowhere Emporium is
destroyed forever? Ross MacKenzie unleashes a riot of imagination,
colour and fantasy in this astonishing adventure, perfect for fans
of Philip Pullman, Cornelia Funke and Neil Gaiman.
