"A contemporary Buffy" - Publishers Weekly
The thrilling and action-packed supernatural mystery from Jennifer Lynn Barnes, no.1 New York Times bestselling author of The Inheritance Games series.
Every other day, Kali D'Angelo is a normal sixteen-year-old girl. She goes to public high school. She attends pep rallies (reluctantly). She's human.
And every other day in between . . . she's not.
Though she's not quite sure what she is on those days, Kali knows what she does . . . she hunts, traps, and kills demons, hellhounds, and other supernatural creatures that threaten her world. On those days, she is practically indestructible.
Sy is Helena Bosman van ’n piepklein dorpie doer ver in die Noord-Kaap, maar Oupa en Oumie noem haar sommer Vaselinetjie. Sy is hulle veldbosengeltjie, hulle hart se punt. Tot Vaselinetjie tien jaar oud is en die Welsyn haar laat wegstuur na die kosskool in Gauteng – die weeshuis waar Madiba se weggooikinders bly.
Dis ’n vreemde, harde, gevaarlike wêreld van skomgatkinders, kwaai huistannies en ’n hardvogtige, onregverdige koshuisvader; van entjies rook, hare laat afskeer en planne maak om te whallap. Waar niemand oor jou traak nie, en waar jy ook leer om oor niemand te traak nie.
Maar soos die maande jare word, kruis een naam telkens Vaselinetjie se pad: Texan Kirby. En daardie naam loop reguit na haar hart.

This collection features stories of love amidst vampires. From a

bent on destroying her, to the legendary romance of two immortals
whose love compels them to risk everything, this exciting,
heart-pounding collection brings new meaning to the words 'love you
forever.'
WHEN THE WORLD BURNS, ASH WILL RISE.
The explosive sequel to instant New York Times bestseller Infinity Alchemist.
Ever since he rose up against his father and saved New Anglia from destruction, Ash has been struggling to adapt to his new life. He has nightmares every night, haunted by strange black orbs and his screaming dead mother. Ash is sure she's trying to warn him that the world is still in danger, and becomes determined to find a way to speak to her again - but communicating with the dead isn't easy, even for an alchemist as powerful as Ash.
It doesn't help that violent anti-alchemist sentiment is spreading across New Anglia. When Ash is captured by a radical alchemist group, inspired by his father's legacy, he must decide if alchemist rights can be trusted in the hands of the Houses, along with his partners Callum and Ramsay - or if Ash must follow the path his father laid for him, and become the leader of an alchemist revolution.
Can Ash keep his relationships together and stop the world from falling apart?
"So this is really a school for criminals." It was meant as a
question, though it came out more as an accusation. "We are so much
more than that," Caspian said, sitting in a plush leather chair and
gesturing for Gabriel to sit in a similar one across the table. "We
are a home for the forgotten, a sanctuary for the lost and ... yes,
a training ground for the greatest crooks of the future."
13-year-old Gabriel is a brilliant pickpocket, a skill which he
uses to keep his often empty belly not quite so empty. And then one
day, he's caught. But instead of being arrested, he is invited by
the mysterious Caspian Crook to attend Crookhaven - a school for
thieves. At Crookhaven, students are trained in lock-picking,
forgery and 'crim-nastics', all with the intention of doing good
out in the world, by conning the bad and giving back to the
innocent. But ... can you ever really trust a thief? With a school
wide competition to be crowned Top Crook and many mysteries to
uncover, Gabriel's first year at Crookhaven will be one to
remember... An irresistible series about chosen family, high stakes
thievery, and what it really means to do good. Perfect for fans of
M.G. Leonard and Anthony Horowitz.
