Perfect for fans of Aurora Rising, The Hunger Games, and Three Dark
Crowns, this electrifying duology closer is jam-packed with tension
and thrills that will hook readers from its first page. Alyssa
Farshot never wanted to rule the empire. But to honor her uncle's
dying wish, she participated in the crownchase, a race across the
empire's 1,001 planets to find the royal seal and win the throne.
Alyssa tried to help her friend, Coy, win the crownchase, but just
as victory was within their grasp, Edgar Voles killed Coy-and
claimed the seal for himself. Broken-hearted over her friend's
death, Alyssa is hell-bent on revenge. But Edgar is well protected
in the kingship. Alyssa will have to rally rivals, friends, and
foes from across the empire to take him down and change the course
of the galaxy.
After going through the door that called to them both in dreams, Emory and Romie find themselves in the Wychwood, albeit a twisted, rotting version of it that feels wrong. Meanwhile, tensions flare at Aldryn College when the truth about Collapsings comes to light, sparking rumours of the Shadow’s imminent return. Determined to cross into the Deep, Baz and Kai go through the door – only to be pulled back in time instead. Across time and worlds, the four friends find their fates eerily interwoven with those of the heroes from Clover’s book. But when they encounter a deadlier enemy than they ever thought possible, they must decide for themselves how their story will end. Opening locked doors has a price – even for those who hold a key...

This is the story of Biscuit, a very curious dog with an uncanny
knack for getting into trouble. When exploring the garden at her
new home she would poke her nose into what looked like a rabbit
hole, as a curious dog was of course going to do, and be sent on a
strange and dangerous journey into the past where she would become
trapped in London during the Great Fire of 1666. Yet, with
determination and the help of a few new friends, she would fight to
find her way home, and in doing so influence the course of history.
