COULD YOU FIND A MUSEUM FOR A MONSTER?OR A JAZZ BAR FOR A
JABBERWOCK?
Zoe Norris writes travel guides for the undead. And she's good at
it too -- her new-found ability to talk to cities seems to help.
After the success of "The Sbambling Guide to New York City," Zoe
and her team are sent to New Orleans to write the sequel.
Work isn't all that brings Zoe to the Big Easy. The only person who
can save her boyfriend from zombism is rumored to live in the
city's swamps, but Zoe's out of her element in the wilderness. With
her supernatural colleagues waiting to see her fail, and rumors of
a new threat hunting city talkers, can Zoe stay alive long enough
to finish her next book?
'Fantasy as it ought to be written' George R.R. Martin Return to
the world of Fitz, the Fool and Nighteyes in the first book of The
Tawny Man Trilogy by international bestselling author, Robin Hobb.
Years have passed since Fitz was tortured by Prince Regal. Now he
lives in self-imposed exile far from the court. Even his beloved
Molly believes him dead. It is safer that way. But safety remains
an illusion. Even though war is over dangerous undercurrents still
swirl around the Six Duchies and suddenly young Prince Dutiful
disappears just before his crucial diplomatic wedding to shore up
the peace. The Fools brings Fitz a secret mission. He and his
bonded companion, the wolf Nighteyes, must find Dutiful and bring
him back to be wed. For if the Outislanders are snubbed, war will
surely resume. But what if the prince does not wish to be found?
Book two in the darkly hypnotic Bargainer series! All your debts
must be repaid... Siren and soulmate to the King of Night, Callypso
Lillis survived the clutches of Karnon, the mad king, and his
twisted prison. But the nightmare isn't over. Callie wears the
physical reminders of her time as a captive, and mounting evidence
suggests the Thief of Souls is still out there. When a fae
celebration thrusts Callie and her mate, Desmond Flynn, into the
Kingdom of Flora, they take their investigation with them. But
under the bright lights and striking blooms of the realm, they find
there are more immediate issues to deal with. No place is more
uniquely savage than the great fae halls, and no amount of bargains
can save Callie from royal intrigues. Fairies play dangerous games.
Some want love, some want vengeance, some want flesh, and some want
things too unspeakable to utter. One thing is for sure: no one is
who they appear to be. Not even Des, who only grows more enigmatic
with every passing secret. But the Kingdom of Flora has its own
secrets, from bleeding trees to branded slaves and missing guards.
Something is stirring in the land of all that grows, and if Callie
isn't careful, it will claim everything and everyone she loves -
and her along with it.

They burned her home. They stole her brother and sister. But
vengeance is following. Shy South hoped to bury her bloody past and
ride away smiling, but she'll have to sharpen up some bad old ways
to get her family back, and she's not a woman to flinch from what
needs doing. She sets off in pursuit with only a pair of oxen and
her cowardly old stepfather Lamb for company. But it turns out
Lamb's buried a bloody past of his own, and out in the lawless Far
Country, the past never stays buried. Their journey will take them
across the barren plains to a frontier town gripped by gold fever,
through feud, duel and massacre, high into the unmapped mountains
to a reckoning with the Ghosts. Even worse, it will force them into
alliance with Nicomo Cosca, infamous soldier of fortune, and his
feckless lawyer Temple, two men no one should ever have to trust...
The past never stays buried...
