Werewolves. They are infectious creatures of the night, able to move swifter than the fastest steeds and rend the hardest steel with their sharpened claws. Through saliva, these beasts spread their disease, morphing afflicted humans into the monsters they fear. But for centuries, these creatures were thought to be extinct. Until now. Beneath the city of Horux, a werewolf lives, waiting to deliver its vengeance on humanity. To protect his people, Yuri, a boy from the slums, must sacrifice everything and slay this beast before it causes the destruction of all he holds dear. A tale of fellowship, powerlessness, war, love and acceptance, Ghost Wolf is the story of a young man that travels a line between man and beast on a perilous journey to save his people.

In ZEROES, Scott Westerfeld teams up with award-winning authors Margo Lanagan and Deborah Biancotti to create a sizzling new series filled with action and adventure. Don’t call them heroes. But these six Californian teens have powers that set them apart. Take Ethan, a.k.a. Scam. He’s got a voice inside him that’ll say whatever you want to hear, whether it’s true or not. Which is handy, except when it isn’t—like when the voice starts gabbing in the middle of a bank robbery. The only people who can help are the other Zeroes, who aren’t exactly best friends these days. Enter Nate, a.k.a. Bellwether, the group’s “glorious leader.” After Scam’s SOS, he pulls the scattered Zeroes back together. But when the rescue blows up in their faces, the Zeroes find themselves propelled into whirlwind encounters with ever more dangerous criminals. At the heart of the chaos they find Kelsie, who can take a crowd in the palm of her hand and tame it or let it loose as she pleases. Filled with high-stakes action and drama, Zeroes unites three powerhouse authors for the opening installment of a thrilling new series. Read a sneak peek here on Wattpad and look out for ZEROES on September 29, 2015 in hardcover, ebook, and audiobook wherever books are sold.
