The Goblin King
Once upon a time a man was cursed to the Shadowlands, his heart replaced with a cold lump of gold. In legends he became the Goblin King. For a favored few he will grant a wish, but his own desire of a queen who will accompany him into the realm of nightmares remains unfulfilled. Will he find his queen, and will she destroy him?
The summer prince
In a Brazil of the distant future, June Costa falls in love with Enki, a fellow artist and rebel against the strict limits of the legendary pyramid city of Palmares Três' matriarchal government, knowing that, like all Summer Kings before him, Enki is destined to die.
Moonshine
"Set during Prohibition, and deep in the backwoods of Appalachia, Moonshine #1 tells the story of Lou Pirlo, a city-slick "torpedo" sent from New York City to negotiate a deal with the best moonshiner in West Virginia, one Hiram Holt. Lou figures it for milk run -- how hard could it be to set-up moonshine shipments from a few ass-backward hillbillies? What Lou doesn't figure on is that Holt is just as cunning as ruthless as any NYC crime boss and Lou is in way over his pin-striped head. Because not only will Holt do anything to protect his illicit booze operation, he'll stop at nothing to protect a much darker family secret...a bloody, supernatural secret that must never see the light of day...or better still, the light of the full moon"--Amazon.
Zombies vs. Unicorns
It's a question as old as time itself: which is better, the zombie or the unicorn? In this anthology, edited by Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier (unicorn and zombie, respectively), strong arguments are made for both sides in the form of short stories. Half of the stories portray the strengths--for good and evil--of unicorns and half show the good (and really, really bad-ass) side of zombies. Contributors include many bestselling teen authors, including Cassandra Clare, Libba Bray, Maureen Johnson, Meg Cabot, Scott Westerfeld, and Margo Lanagan. This anthology will have everyone asking: Team Zombie or Team Unicorn?
Welcome to Bordertown
Bordertown: a city on the border between our human world and the elfin realm. Runaway teens come from both sides of the border to find adventure, and to find themselves. Elves play in rock bands and race down the street on spell-powered motorbikes. Human kids recreate themselves in squats and clubs and artist's studios of Soho. Authors including Holly Black, Cassandra Clare, Cory Doctorow, Neil Gaiman, Catherynne M. Valente, all meet here on the streets of Bordertown in more than twenty new interconnected songs, poems and stories.
