A magical house. A secret past. A summons that could change everything.
This is the hugely-anticipated sequel to TJ Klune's The House in the
Cerulean Sea, a cosy-fantasy triumph and a New York Times bestseller.
Arthur Parnassus has built a good life on the ashes of a bad one. He’s
headmaster at an orphanage for magical children, on a peculiar island,
assisted by love-of-his-life Linus Baker. And together, they’ll do
anything to protect their extraordinary and powerful charges.
However, when Arthur is forced to make a public statement about his
dark past, he finds himself fighting for those under his care. It’s
also a fight for the better future that all magical people deserve.
Then when a new magical child joins their island home, Arthur knows
they’ve reached breaking point. The child finds power in calling
himself a monster, a name Arthur has tried so hard to banish to protect
his children. Challenged from within and without, their volatile family
might grow stronger. Or everything Arthur loves could fall apart.
Somewhere Beyond the Sea is a story of resistance, lovingly told, about
the daunting experience of fighting for the life you want to live and
doing the work to keep it.
In the ruins of Caswell, Maine, Carter Bennett learned the truth of
what had been right in front of him the entire time. And then it
– he – was gone. Desperate for answers, Carter takes to the
road, leaving family and the safety of his pack behind, all in the
name of a man he only knows as a feral wolf. But therein lies the
danger: wolves are pack animals, and the longer Carter is on his
own, the more his mind slips toward the endless void of Omega
insanity. But he pushes on, following the trail left by Gavin.
Gavin, the son of Robert Livingstone. The half-brother of Gordo
Livingstone. What Carter finds will change the course of the wolves
forever. Because Gavin’s history with the Bennett pack goes back
further than anyone knows, a secret kept hidden by Carter’s
father, Thomas Bennett. And with this knowledge comes a price: the
sins of the fathers now rest upon the shoulders of their sons.

Gordo Livingstone never forgot the lessons carved into his skin.
Hardened by the betrayal of a pack who left him behind, he sought
solace in the garage in his tiny mountain town, vowing never again
to involve himself in the affairs of wolves. It should have been
enough. And it was, until the wolves came back, and with them, Mark
Bennett. In the end, they faced the beast together as a pack . . .
and won. Now, a year later, Gordo has found himself once again the
witch of the Bennett pack. Green Creek has settled after the death
of Richard Collins, and Gordo constantly struggles to ignore Mark
and the song that howls between them. But time is running out.
Something is coming. And this time, it’s crawling from within.
Some bonds, no matter how strong, were made to be broken. Set in
the dreamy backwoods of Oregon, Ravensong is the second book in
bestselling author TJ Klune’s beloved Green Creek series.

deep into the heart of a peculiar forest and on the extraordinary
journey of a family assembled from spare parts. In a strange little
home built into the branches of a grove of trees live three robots

attention. Victor Lawson, a human, lives there too. They’re a

past between Hap and Gio – a past spent hunting humans. When Hap

whereabouts, the family is no longer hidden and safe. Gio is
captured and taken back to his old laboratory in the City of
Electric Dreams. So together, the rest of Vic’s assembled family
must journey across an unforgiving and otherworldly country to
rescue Gio from decommission, or worse, reprogramming. Along the

for Hap, Vic must decide for himself: can he accept love with
strings attached? Inspired by Carlo Collodi’s The Adventures of
Pinocchio, In the Lives of Puppets is a masterful standalone
fantasy adventure from the author who brought you The House in the
Cerulean Sea and Under the Whispering Door.

troubled times. TJ Klune brings us a warm hug of a story about a
man who spent his life at the office - and his afterlife building a
home. From the author of joyous New York Times bestseller The House
in the Cerulean Sea. Welcome to Charon's Crossing. The tea is hot,
the scones are fresh and the dead are just passing through. When a
reaper comes to collect Wallace from his own sparsely-attended
funeral, Wallace is outraged. But he begins to suspect she's right,
and he is in fact dead. Then when Hugo, owner of a most peculiar
tea shop, promises to help him cross over, Wallace reluctantly
accepts the truth. Yet even in death, he refuses to abandon his
life - even though Wallace spent all of it working, correcting
colleagues and hectoring employees. He'd had no time for
frivolities like fun and friends. But as Wallace drinks tea with
Hugo and talks to his customers, he wonders if he was missing
something. The feeling grows as he shares jokes with the resident
ghost, manifests embarrassing footwear and notices the stars. So
when he's given one week to pass through the door to the other
side, Wallace sets about living a lifetime in just seven days. Fans
of A Man Called Ove and The Good Place will fall for this queer
love story by TJ Klune. Praise for TJ Klune: 'I loved it. It is
