Melissa Crawford thinks she's just a regular teenage girl. She goes to school. She has friends, boy problems, homework...you know, the typical teenage angst. But she couldn't be more wrong, for Melissa Crawford is not a mortal. Her adoptive mortal mother refused to give her up and hired a witch to erase the enchanting Faery child's memory, not realizing that things aren't that simple. You see, when she was a little girl, Melissa promised herself forever to her Leannan Sidhe (mate), a Fae Prince, and a promise to Fae is sacred. When the Fae Prince comes back to claim what's his, nothing will get in his way. "Mortals are so arrogant. So utterly narcissistic to think that they are the only intelligence in this world, to believe their realm is the only realm, their way is the only way. "Many of you believe us fairies only exist in little kids' fairy tales. We are so much more than that. We exist, living in the Realm just a blink away from yours. A few wrong turns in the park or the forest and you're there. We sometimes walk among you, and you're not even aware of it. Believe me, we exist. Across the globe, your kind calls us and our realm by different names...but as William Shakespeare once said- a rose by any other name..."

Life is about to become a nightmare... Sixteen-year-old Parrish Sorrows lives in the shadow of her prodigy sister, ignored by her parents and shunned as an outsider at her private school. But today, everything changes. An ancient evil awakens, spreading a magical virus that will kill millions in a matter of weeks. When the dead begin to awaken, survivors must battle an enemy they can't even begin to comprehend. But as the rest of the world is dying, a mysterious power inside Parrish is reborn. A power that reveals she's the key to saving what's left of the world. And she's not the only one. Told from alternating points of view, Death's Awakening is equal parts fantasy and horror, witches and zombies, love and loss. It is the story of five extraordinary survivors struggling to realize their destiny as they fight against the darkest evil this world has ever seen.

Declared the destined queen, Celvene expects to rise... but her kingdom has other plans.

A blacksmith's apprentice with no past, a young witch no one trusts, and a landlord's restless daughter are drawn into a struggle against an ancient evil that seeks not to conquer the living, but to erase every memory, every name. --- The old stories say evil was defeated. The Pit was sealed. The world was saved. The end. But the old stories are no longer enough. When Valant, Meika, and Darya discover a broken stele buried beneath their village, they awaken powers none of them understand-and draw the attention of the Covenant, a secretive order willing to burn towns and break kingdoms to seize the girl they call the Daughter of the Dragon. But the Covenant is not the only danger moving through the world. Something older and more terrifying is stirring, feeding on the lost and the forgotten, devouring names and memories, and leaving only deathless shades behind. A blacksmith's apprentice with no past. A witch's daughter with a forbidden legacy. A restless landlord's child who refuses the life chosen for her. Together, they must cross a land where buried history is rising, old lies are tearing everything apart, and the wrong choices can unmake them. If they fail, the world will not fall into darkness. It will be forgotten.

Oriane Moore, the new addition to the Diana Mist College, recently discovered that she is a witch. Or more specifically, a so-called 'elemental'. It's changed her life completely. Aside from the usual hocus pocus, hexes, and talking pets, Oriane, like her fellow classmates, is supposed to have control over at least one of the affinities: Fire. Water. Air. Clay. Energy. It's bad enough being the new girl in town, but to make things worse, she hasn't discovered her affinity yet. Which makes her... pretty much human in a school full of the supernatural. While she tries to come to terms with her new identity, an imminent threat lurks in the corners of the serenely composed school. Life is tough at 'Mystic High'!
