Anticipation abounds while fantasy meets reality in equal measure.The story unfolds as told through the eyes of its hero, the complex and funny wizard-man Nate Temple - intelligent, informed, flawed and a tad eccentric. As if character and magic were not compelling enough, the book spills much more - suspenseful drama, mystery, `spare no expense' fast paced action; it is violent, bloody, erotic, sexy and variously romantic.Harnessing a powerful combination of genres and alter-dimensions, Silvers thrives on attention to detail, and achieves it most elegantly.

Already plagued with sinister night terrors that could qualify him as a card-carrying psychopathic insomniac, Nate can barely even manage to put his pants on in the morning, let alone pick teams for the Apocalypse. But when he’s framed as a demon sympathizer, condemned by the Armies of Heaven, and hunted down by both his allies and the Four Horsemen, this wizard doesn’t think it can get any worse…. Then they take away his magic. And a wizard without magic stands no chance against the forces of Heaven and Hell…. If you like Jim Butcher, Kevin Hearne, or Patrick Rothfuss, you will LOVE the second installment of the Amazon Bestselling Nate Temple Supernatural Thriller series. I suggest the following sequence: Obsidian Son Blood Debts Fairy Tale – Prequel (FREE to email subscribers) Grimm Silver Tongue Beast Master Tiny Gods Wild Side - September 2017.

When Ainsley and her team at MAGIC, Inc. beg Lily for her help, she agrees, taking on a load of problems that pile up faster than she can say Abracadabra .

He receives an essay from one of the students—a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night 50 years ago when Harry Dunning’s father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. So begins Jake’s new life as George Amberson and his new world of Elvis and JFK, of big American cars and sock hops, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake’s life – a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time. * People (Australia) * King's first effort at melding fact with fiction is as successful as his previous books, and perhaps even more intriguing considering the subject matter: time travel and the implications of change. * Sun * Time travel and an incredible talent for storytelling combine to produce a unique tour de force. * Canberra City News * The story moves seamlessly from detailed reality to elaborate fantasy and back again through a meticulously researched backdrop of late 1950s events, fashion and sentimentality. King's mastery of plot and his ability to create characters and situations both homespun and far-fetched means that this is the book you dream of getting stuck on the train home with. The key to any novel set in an alternate reality is credible world building, the steady accumulation of detail - preferably lightly distributed - that brings the story alive. * Adam LeBor,FT Weekend * King swiftly moves beyond vintage Americana to unfold a stunningly panoramic portrait of the era. King commands an inordinately fat space on the bookshelf with 11.22.63 but it's hard to begrudge when his vast imagination is working across such an epic canvas. * Seven, The Sunday Telegraph * One of the strengths of the book is King's at once nostalgic and honest view of the end of the Eisenhower era. King manages to avoid both sentimentalizing the past and treating it with massive condescension; his role as the poet of American brand-names serves him well here. * Mark Lawson, Guardian * You have to take a leap of faith with time-travel novels, but if there's one writer who can pull it off, it's Stephen King. * Eureka Street * A delightful blend of history and fantasy by a man who has always had a soft spot for an America where men wore fedoras, drove big Fords and could do the foxtrot. * Armidale Express Extra * King weaves the social, political and popular culture of his baby-boom American generation into a devastating exercise in escalating suspense. * Who Weekly * These early sections of the novel are almost irresistible entertaining, enlivened not just by King's supreme control of the form but by his sardonic wit and usual generosity of spirit and expansiveness. Beneath the reassuring glow of King's portrait of an earlier, simpler time moves a darker and less comfortable vision, a glimpse of the terrifying machinery that moves below the surface of human history, and which stands as a stark, chilling rejoinder to the fantasies of escape embodied in so many time travel stories. * The Weekend Australia * Perhaps only seasoned storyteller Stephen King could accomplish changing the course of history in his vast time-travelling masterpiece whilst effortlessly weaving political and social details with abundant humour. * The Australian Women's Weekly * Stephen King at his epic, pedal-to-metal best * Alison Flood Sunday Times, Culture,i> * Delivers a lot of praise and enjoy. * London Review of Books * The details of Fifties America, the cars, the clothes, the food, the televisions with wonky horizontal hold, are so vivid that you begin to wonder whether the author himself hasn't had access to a time machine....But as you worry at the paradoxes and the brilliantly explained pseudo science there is no denying that this monster yearn is blindingly impressive. * Independent Books of the Year * Stephen King at his epic, pedal-to-metal best * Alison Flood, Sunday Times * The pages of 11.22.63 fly by, filled with immediacy, pathos and suspense. -- Daily Telegraph 'Stephen King at his epic, pedal-to-metal best' -- Alison Flood Sunday Times, Culture,i> 'not just an accomplished time-travel yarn but an action-heavy meditation on chance, choice and fate.'. -- Independent Books of the Year 'The details of Fifties America, the cars, the clothes, the food, the televisions with wonky horizontal hold, are so vivid that you begin to wonder whether the author himself hasn't had access to a time machine. -- Independent 'Perhaps only seasoned storyteller Stephen King could accomplish changing the course of history in his vast time-travelling masterpiece whilst effortlessly weaving political and social details with abundant humour. -- The Australian Women's Weekly 'These early sections of the novel are almost irresistible entertaining, enlivened not just by King's supreme control of the form but by his sardonic wit and usual generosity of spirit and expansiveness.

A special 25th anniversary edition of the extraordinary international bestseller, including a new Foreword by Paulo Coelho. "My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer," the boy confides to the alchemist one night as they look up at a moonless night. "And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity." The charming tale of Santiago, a shepherd boy, who dreams of seeing the world, is compelling in its own right, but gains resonance through the many lessons Santiago learns during his adventures.

Rylee is a complex character with a tough, kick-ass exterior, a sassy temperament and morals which she never deviates from. Get ready for a whole new take on Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Romance and be ready to be glued to the pages!”. -Just My Opinion Book Blog. From HiJinks Ink Publishing and Shannon Mayer comes The USA Today Bestselling RYLEE ADAMSON NOVELS beginning with PRICELESS (Book 1). Praise for Shannon Mayer and the Rylee Adamson series “Steamy, action-packed, and full of heart. If you’re a fan of Ilona Andrews, you’ll love Rylee Adamson.”. — New York Times bestselling author Deanna Chase. Many times, the heroines in urban fantasy novels tend to be so tough or snarky that they come off as unlikable. “ Priceless was one of those reads that just starts off running and doesn’t give too much time to breathe. I’m always looking for something to tide me over until the next Ilona Andrews or Patricia Briggs book comes out, but no matter how many recommendations I get nothing ever measures up. “This was a wonderful debut in the Rylee Adamson series, and a creative twist on a genre that’s packed full of hard-as-nails heroines. “ Priceless did not disappoint with its colourful secondary characters, unique slant on the typical P.I.

What should be a cozy and fun-filled weekend deep in the English countryside takes a sinister turn in Ruth Ware’s suspenseful, compulsive, and darkly twisted psychological thriller. But as the first night falls, revelations unfold among friends old and new, an unnerving memory shatters Leonora’s reserve, and a haunting realization creeps in: the party is not alone in the woods. I started IN A DARK, DARK WOOD on an airplane, kept dipping into it whenever I was left alone, devoured another big chunk on the flight home, and after that surrendered myself to it until the last revelation had bloomed, the final surprise had exploded, and the bittersweet conclusive turn had folded the final page. Ruth Ware has written an exciting, and in fact amazing book that never stops circling around behind the reader and clapping its cold hands over her eyes. I raced through this, totally unable to put it down...Dark, smart and compulsive. "Ware slowly unspools the mystery, setting a truly spooky scene … with a constant undercurrent of danger.
