Desperation is the most dangerous type of magic.
This shouldn't be her problem.
Listen. Claire Bishop is Las Vegas’s greatest stage magician, and she’s perfectly happy with that fame. Ozarik is the next Zaro, the leader of the world’s witches, the modern-day Darcy everyone swoons over. Just because Claire shares a Zaro’s unfathomable magic doesn’t mean she shares the responsibility.
So, if Ozarik wants to make himself a villain by casting an ultra-dangerous spell to stop death on Earth “for her,” to “protect her,” that sounds like a him-problem. Claire has a show in four hours. Skipping it to save the world might give her manager a heart attack.
Ozarik may be her friend, but it sounds like a lot of work.
… Ugh. Fine.
Voiced by the incredible Moira Quirk, this audiobook is perfect for fans of the quirky narration of 'Good Omens,' or for readers who loved the ever-shifting timeline of 'This Is How You Lose the Time War.'

To bring the sun back to her cursed kingdom, a warrior and a handsome commander must venture into a monster-ridden fog in the first installment of this sweeping, romantic, and inclusive fantasy. On the day of The Calling, Selena Carlisle knows her beloved brother will be chosen. Each family is expected to sacrifice a son to the Knights of the Eternal Star, fated to protect the lands against the mist that poisons the land, its creatures, and its people. Infecting them with chilling evil. But Selena is a true warrior. Defiant, angry, and fierce, she is a living weapon with a will to match. And so she is chosen instead: the first girl in over half a century. The others whisper about her, awed by her speed, as lethal as the shadow beasts rumored to roam the mist. And always those gloves, hiding her secret shame. Only their fearsome and quietly dangerous commander, Jude Maddox, sees the possibilities of Selena, even as she awakens a part of him long thought dead. The king commanded Jude to find warriors. Most of them will die.

As Simeon and Pierrette race to stop further attacks, they unearth plans suggesting a mysterious tower is the key to the ultimate Templar takeover … and with the puzzling Engine of History in their grasp, the Assassins might be outmatched at last.
Mary Firth is a Stormsinger: a woman whose voice can still hurricanes and shatter
armadas. Faced with servitude to pirate lord Silvanus Lirr, Mary offers her skills to
his arch-rival in exchange for protection—and helping send Lirr to a watery grave.
But her new ally has a vendetta of his own, and Mary’s dreams are dark and full of
ghistings, spectral creatures who inhabit the ancient forests of her homeland and
the figureheads of ships.
Samuel Rosser is a disgraced naval officer serving aboard Hart, an infamous
privateer commissioned to bring Lirr to justice. He will stop at nothing to capture
Lirr, restore his good name, and reclaim the only thing that stands between
himself and madness: a talisman stolen by Mary.
Finally, driven into the eternal ice at the limits of their world, Mary and Samuel
must choose their loyalties and battle forces older and more powerful than the
pirates who would make them slaves.
From the beloved #1 bestselling author of Code Name Verity, this thrilling murder mystery set in 1937 Europe soars with intrigue, glamour, secrets, and betrayal.
When Stella North is chosen to represent Britain in Europe's first air race for young people, she knows all too well how high the stakes are. As the only participating female pilot, it'll be a constant challenge to prove she's a worthy competitor. But promoting peace in Europe feels empty to Stella when civil war is raging in Spain and the Nazis are gaining power-and when, right from the start, someone resorts to cutthroat sabotage to get ahead of the competition.
The world is looking for inspiration in what's meant to be a friendly sporting event. But each of the racers is hiding a turbulent and violent past, and any one of them might be capable of murder…including Stella herself.
A new recruit to the most powerful supernatural intelligence agency on Earth is accused of going rogue and must go on the run to clear her name.
September, 1940. Three women of the Checquy, the secret organization tasked with protecting Britain from supernatural threats, stand in the sky above London and see German aircraft approach. Forbidden by law to interfere, all they can do is watch as their city is bombed. Until Pamela, the most sensible of them, breaks all the rules and brings down a Nazi bomber with her bare hands. The three resolve to tell no one about it, but they soon learn that a crew member is missing from the downed bomber. Charred corpses are discovered in nearby houses and it becomes apparent that the women have unwittingly unleashed a monster.
Through a city torn by the Blitz, the friends must hunt the enemy before he kills again. Their task will take them from the tunnels of the Underground to the halls of power, where they will discover the secrets that a secret organization must keep even from itself.
Today. Lynette Binns, a librarian with a husband and child, is a late recruit to the Checquy, having discovered only as an adult her ability to electrify everyday objects with her touch. After completing her training, she is assigned to examine a string of brutal murders and quickly realizes that all bear the unmistakable hallmark of her own unique power. Unable to provide an alibi and determined to prove her innocence, she flees, venturing into the London underworld to find answers. But now she is prey, being tracked by her own frighteningly capable comrades.
As Lyn fights off powered thugs and her own vengeful colleagues, she will find that the solution to the murders and to the mystery of her own past lies in the events of World War II, and the covert actions of three young women during the Blitz.

“This in-depth biography of Mary Anning sings with the passion and perseverance of the woman herself, who from girlhood on scoured the shifting cliffs of her native Dorset to dig out prehistoric mysteries and make sense of them—altering forever our view of the past.” —Joyce Sidman, Newbery Honor winner and Sibert Medal winner
A fascinating biography of Mary Anning, the Victorian fossil hunter who changed scientific thinking about prehistoric life and would become one of the most celebrated paleontologists of all time. Perfect for children learning about woman scientists like Ada Lovelace, Jane Goodall, and Katherine Johnson.
Mary Anning grew up on the south coast of England in a region rich in fossils. As teenagers, she and her brother Joseph discovered England’s first complete ichthyosaur. Poor and uneducated, Anning would become one of the most celebrated paleontologists ever, though in her time she supported herself selling by fossils and received little formal recognition. Her findings helped shape scientific thinking about extinction and prehistoric life long before Darwin published his famous work on evolution.
Fossil Hunter introduces this self-taught scientist, now recognized as one of the greatest fossilists the world has ever known.
'One of the most exciting historical fiction writers in a long time.' Julia Quinn, Author of the Netflix series Bridgerton
How many times can a rake get it wrong . . . before he becomes Mr. Right?
Philip Thane - rogue, rake, and scoundrel extraordinaire - hadn’t wanted to show up in the little town of Whittlesey to give a speech. He also didn’t expect that somehow he’d be living the same day over and over again. It’s strange! It’s terrible! Although . . .
On the plus side, it’s giving him time to further his acquaintance with the delightful Miss Margaret Allen, in town to research the book she’s writing. And Philip has no doubt she’ll fall starry-eyed into his arms, just like so many other ladies of the ton have done before.
Yet Miss Allen stands firm against his wiles, day after day. How is it even possible? Why won’t she change her mind? What must he do to win her heart?
Maybe - just maybe - it isn’t Margaret who needs to change, but rather a certain rogue, who - if only he knew it - is head over heels in love and badly in need of redemption.
Bridgerton meets Groundhog Day in this rip-roaring regency comedy for fans of Julia Quinn, Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer.
From the award-winning author of The Day I Died and The Lucky One, a captivating suspense novel about nurses during World War II who come to Agatha Christie’s holiday estate to care for evacuated children, but when a body is discovered nearby, the idyllic setting becomes host to a deadly mystery.
Bridey Kelly has come to Greenway House—the beloved holiday home of Agatha Christie—in disgrace. A terrible mistake at St. Prisca’s Hospital in London has led to her dismissal as a nurse trainee, and her only chance for redemption is a position in the countryside caring for children evacuated to safety from the Blitz.
Greenway is a beautiful home full of riddles: wondrous curios not to be touched, restrictions on rooms not to be entered, and a generous library, filled with books about murder. The biggest mystery might be the other nurse, Gigi, who is like no one Bridey has ever met. Chasing ten young children through the winding paths of the estate grounds might have soothed Bridey’s anxieties and grief—if Greenway were not situated so near the English Channel and the rising aggressions of the war.
When a body washes ashore near the estate, Bridey is horrified to realize this is not a victim of war, but of a brutal killing. As the local villagers look among themselves, Bridey and Gigi discover they each harbor dangerous secrets about what has led them to Greenway. With a mystery writer’s home as their unsettling backdrop, the young women must unravel the truth before their safe haven becomes a place of death . . .
