The Sky on Fire is a daring new fantasy heist adventure from Jenn Lyons
that will thrill fans of Temeraire, Fourth Wing and Dragonriders of
Pern.
Anahrod lives only for survival, forging her own way through the harsh
jungles of the Deep with her titan drake by her side. Even when an
adventuring party saves her from capture by a local warlord, she is
eager to return to her solitary life.
But this is no ordinary rescue. It’s Anahrod’s past catching up with
her. These cunning misfits – and their frustratingly appealing
dragonrider ringleader – intend to spirit her away to the dragon-ruled
sky cities, where they need her help to steal from a dragon’s hoard.
There’s just one problem: the hoard in question belongs to the current
regent, Neveranimas – and she wants Anahrod dead.
From the acclaimed author of the Chorus of Dragons series, this soaring
stand-alone fantasy combines conniving dragons, lightning banter,
high-stakes intrigue and a little bit of heat.

What if you were imprisoned for all eternity?
In the aftermath of the Ritual of Night, everything has changed.
The Eight Immortals have catastrophically failed to stop Kihrin’s enemies, who are moving forward with their plans to free Vol Karoth, the King of Demons. Kihrin has his own ideas about how to fight back, but even if he’s willing to sacrifice everything for victory, the cost may prove too high for his allies.
Now they face a choice: can they save the world while saving Kihrin too? Or will they be forced to watch as he becomes the very evil they had all sworn to destroy?
The House of Always is the fourth book in Jenn Lyons’s series A Chorus of Dragons.
Could this life be their last?
The city of Atrine lies in ruins. And now Relos Var has revealed his plan to free the monstrous god, Vol Karoth, the end of the world is closer than ever.
To buy time for humanity, Kihrin and his friends need to convince a king to perform an ancient ritual. The power released would imprison the god for an age to come. But this may come at too high a price for the King of the Vane, as the ritual would strip his people of their immortality. As a result, some will do anything to prevent this ritual – including assassinating those championing this solution.
Worse, Kihrin must come to terms with a horrifying possibility. It seems his connection to Vol Karoth is growing in strength . . . but what does it mean? And how can Kihrin hope to save his world, when he might be the greatest threat of all?
The Memory of Souls is the third book in A Chorus of Dragons by Jenn Lyons.
Prophecy and magic combine in The Name of All Things, Jenn Lyons'
powerful epic of imperial politics, dragons, gods and demons. You
can have everything you want. If you sacrifice everything you
believe . . . Kihrin D'Mon is a wanted man after killing the
Emperor of Quur - and not in a good way. So he heads for Jorat, to
find the fourth person named in prophesy, who will either save or
damn the world. He meets Janel Theranon, who claims she already
knows him. And she wants Kihrin's help in saving Jorat's capital
from a dragon, who can only be slain with his sword's magic.
Unwittingly, Kirin also finds himself at the centre of a rebellion.
One which puts him in direct opposition to Relos Var, his old
enemy. For too long, Janel's battled the wizard alone - even
betraying her ideals to bring him down. However, Var owns one of
the world's most powerful artefacts: the Name of All Things. It
bestows knowledge, which Var uses to gain what he wants most. This
is now Kihrin D'Mon - and the world may not survive the
consequences. The Name of All Things is book two in Jenn Lyons'
thrilling epic fantasy series, A Chorus of Dragons, which begins
with The Ruin of Kings. Continue the action with The Memory of
Souls. 'What an extraordinary book . . . everything epic fantasy
should be: rich, cruel, gorgeous, brilliant, enthralling and deeply
deeply satisfying. I loved it' - Lev Grossman on The Ruin of Kings
Good and evil are so close as to be chained together in the soul.'
- The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis
Stevenson. Harleen Quinzel is many things, a gymnast, anxious,
broke...but the last thing anyone would call her is evil. Harley
Quinn on the other hand... When Harleen signs up to participate in
a clinical research trial with her girlfriend, Pamela, the most she
can hope for is extra cash in her wallet and a chance to get her
anxiety under control. But what she gets instead are increasingly
larger gaps in her memory and stolen mementos from some guy named
Jack she's never met. Soon, Harleen discovers she's sharing her
life with Harley-a take-no-prisoners, who-cares-about attendance,
maybe-we-oughtta-save-the-bunnies kind of girl. She is the opposite
of Harleen in many ways. She is anarchy in a cute dress. And
although she's throwing Harleen's life completely off track, maybe
she ain't so bad either... New York Times bestselling author of
Wicked Lovely, Melissa Marr, teams up with celebrated artist Jenn
St-Onge to tell the story of a girl who will learn good and evil
are not black and white (and red)...as long as she doesn't get
caught.

Have you ever been told you're too sensitive? Welcome to the club.
Nearly 1 in 3 people have the genes to be more sensitive than others.
But what if we said it doesn't have to be the insult it's always been
framed as?
Highly sensitive people:
· Have a heightened sense of empathy
· Tune into subtle details and make connections that others miss
· Are often wonderfully creative
Through fascinating research, expert storytelling and practical
insight, this book will teach you how to unlock the potential in this
undervalued strength and leverage it in your relationships, your work
and your life.
Shattering the myth that being sensitive is a weakness, Sensitive will
change - once and for all - how the world sees sensitive people, and
how they see themselves.
