Misunderstood and overmedicated, twelve-year-old Lilith Bloom finds the prospect of a grand family reunion decidedly dull... That is, until she discovers that the rose garden surrounding her grandfather's Berlin mansion is, well, completely and utterly carnivorous. Armed with Panther, her talking pet whippet, and the help of the mute boy next door, Lilith must unravel the secrets behind the mysterious estate, all while her family remains gloriously unaware that they are about to be devoured.

The events of The Rising continue, or restart, depending on how you look at it. In the previous nine scenes of The Rising, the Magi began to gather. Now the Societies get their time to shine, or do they? Follow the stories of Aelf, Psychics, Faerie, Knights, Summoners and Alchemysts as they try their best to delay The Rising. But the darkness is insidious, and it lurks in the most unexpected places... Oh yeah, and did I mention the half daemon?

What if magic were real, and humans were a myth? Al Ardito, the son of an infamous family of gangsters, and his brat of a younger sister, Sophie, find themselves dragged into a strange world by an incompetent gnomish wizard. In this world humans were once worshipped as gods, but those religions have been dying off as new technologies and ideas arise. Now everything will be thrown on its head as two bonafide humans--who want nothing more than to go back home--pop up out of thin air.

The Veil grows weak. The Rising is upon us. There are possibly a thousand horrible futures and only a few bearable ones. Every choice made may very well be the butterfly that calls the hurricane. Temi doesn't want to be what she is... what she did. But the past is the past and there is no going back. Does the chance the Societies give her lead to salvation or slavery? Bill Fontaine has seen a lot, but surely there's a limit to how far the bounds of logic can stretch, right? A tween who thinks she's a queen begs to differ. Carlos is the bearer of a shattered heart. A soldier by nature, he commits himself to a hopeless battle to save a young soul. He definitely doesn't expect how far that young soul will change his life, faith and heart. Nathaniel Sparrow has both immense power and none at all. The world is changing on the dawn of the Rising, and he'll seize every chance to win power in two worlds. August never meant any harm by saving her brother from certain death. Her Society doesn't think so though. Sometimes family can get you locked up for a non-crime. Then again, family can get you out of tight situations too.
