The world as we know it ended 209 years ago. From a desert wasteland springs a single kingdom, ruled by a tyrannical King and trapped in an endless war against the shadowy desert warriors. As a desperate bid to save what remains of humanity, society has been split into two distinct classes, nicknamed the Court and the Commons. For an oppressed population on the brink of revolution, a common thief could be the last hope. Up until now, Kay has survived by her wits alone. Reckless and impulsive, wanted by the King's guard, Kay has become known as the Runner. Using the city's rooftops as her personal domain, she manages to keep one step ahead of the King with one hand buried in the purses of the courtiers. Driven by the plight of the commoners and the unjust death of her family, Kay seizes the chance to graduate from small-time thievery to full-scale rebellion. Her opportunity comes in the form of Will, a wealthy ex-soldier with a dark past. Plucked from the streets and thrown into the shimmering palace court, Kay must use her every strength to blend into a world where she doesn't belong, closer to the enemy than she ever thought she would be.

"I'm fine. I think I just stepped on a rock and cut my foot. If I ever find out who took my shoes, I'll kill them." He lowered himself to one knee and bent over to pick up her injured foot. "I'd be willing to bet it was one of the fey. They're very territorial by nature and often take things that are left lying—” His voice cut off abruptly, and he stiffened before jerking to his feet and backing away from her as if she had a contagious disease. He stopped only when his back hit a tree. Eirnin of the Eáchan clan’s silver eyes—now with hints of bright yellow to them—widened in astonishment, and he stared, transfixed, at the red blood dripping from her foot. "What are you?"

NOTHING TOO DANGEROUS, Christopher Ruz's collection of paranormal, horror and weird fiction, is a journey through dark corridors and darker hearts. Five stories, ranging from a claustrophobic apocalypse to a Lovecraftian jaunt through a girl's high-school, push the boundaries of literary horror and urban fantasy. In AN UNKNOWN HUNGER, Officer Packer has a body lying on the street with no clear signs of death and no leads. Meanwhile, Con Stannis has woken up with another man's memories bubbling inside his head. Now the police are knocking on his door... In NEVER OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW, the Fatespeaker arrives at St Werstan's School for Gifted Young Ladies to tell the girls what awaits them in life and death. But there are some questions better left unasked, and some fates better left unspoken... In WHISPERS, one young man has stumbled onto a terrible truth. This world is changing, little by little, every time you turn your back. Your house isn't your house any more. These walls don't love you. And your wife is certainly not the woman you fell asleep next to last night... Is there any way out of this madness? In OCCUPIED, young John finds a message tucked behind a public toilet. Little does he know that by answering the message, he summons Charlie, a ragged man who's been trapped in an inexplicable labyrinth of lavatories for decades upon decades. Can these two unlikely friends solve the mystery of the toilet maze, or is Charlie doomed to wander from bathroom to bathroom for the rest of his days? And in BLACK RAIN, a young couple watch from inside their apartment as a storm rolls in - a storm so thick that it seems to swallow the world outside. Now there's no mobile signal, no power and no lights outside. The taps are running black and the rain keeps drumming... Christopher Ruz's works, such as his ongoing horror serial RUST, are available through the Kindle, iBooks, Nook and Kobo stores.
