When Elizabeth Amelia Ross was ten years old, there had been an accident. That accident cost her the most important person in her life; her father. Even well before that dreadful day at the track, her mother had never liked her. The accident had only made it worse. Her mother blamed her for her father's death, and she never failed to remind her of the fact. For a while, Elizabeth had believed what her mother had been feeding her. But as she got older, she began to delve deeper into the crash that had killed her father. It turned out, that it hadn't been her fault after all. After figuring out that it was, in fact, not her fault, she stopped caring when it came to anything that her mother said. She didn't give a shit about what she thought either. As soon as she could, Elizabeth got out of that house, away from her mother, and moved to Pine Creek. Not only emancipating herself, but changing her name to Raven; the nickname that her father had used for her. The only problem was, even with working her two jobs, it wasn't enough to pay her rent. So, kicked out from yet another apartment, she was left with no choice but to go back to her hometown. Autumn's Grove, the town that she had thought she was done with, was where her younger sister lived with her childhood best friend. Raven's only hope was to get her sister to let her stay, temporarily, at her house. She only really needed to stay until her twenty-first birthday, when she would get the trust fund her father had left behind. She only has two problems. Cara is her mother's favoured daughter, so running into her was inevitable. And then there was Arwyn, Cara's best friend's older brother. He seemed to always be around. And no matter how much Raven tried to resist, he was relentless. Intrigued by her. Will Raven and her mother finally settle things? Will Raven find out who caused the crash? And will Raven finally have her walls broken down? There's only one way to find out . . . join her on her journey.

Fear the dark. Bar the doors. Don't breathe a word. Wait for the Hooded Men to save you. The people of Nictaven live in fear of the night; governed by magic no one save a few can control, in a land plagued by demons and cannibal tribes, and isolated from all other worlds for centuries, they're right to. Only the Unspoken, a secretive guild of warriors linked with the land and its magic, provide any safety when darkness falls. For centuries, it has stayed like this. But in an abandoned crypt worlds away, Jordan Haverford is about to change that. It wasn't quite the holiday he had been hoping for. Plunged into a world where who you are and what you believe can kill you, a world of demons and knives in the dark and wars fought from behind the doors of the rich, Jordan's gentle Oxford upbringing isn't quite sufficient preparation. Instantly a pawn in a deadly game, separated from his sister and watched from the shadows by an assassin with a vendetta, he finds himself in the company of an Unspoken who has an uncanny knack for finding the Gifted - and Jordan can't seem to get rid of him.

In modern Themis, hybrids are looked down on. They're the outcasts. Throughout the territories, hybrids stay hidden among the pure. But there is a secret sanctuary sought out by the hybrids. A place where everyone is judged not by their DNA, but their personality. This place is called Hybrid Island. Lachesis, the royal liar; said to dispense the thread of life and deal with the past. Klotho, the strong-willed fighter; said to create the thread of life and work with the present. Atropos, the stubborn scholar; said to cut the threat of life and manage the future. What happens when these three overlooked, underestimated and misunderstood strangers are thrown together? When their companions tell them about an island where they could finally be themselves, where they are needed, they fly there immediately. At first, it feels like home, but they start to notice a darkness lurking within their supposedly safe new home. Are they just paranoid, or is there truth behind their suspicions? Their long-time companions have been acting rather odd. Soon the three start to notice that their companions know more than they say. More than they aren't telling them. Aki shows very little emotion towards anyone but his brothers. Ke'oke'o acts far too human-like. Kye seems to hide an ancient inner pain for Aki. It seems a bit suspicious. . . A prophecy binds the three, but they will have to learn to work together. To put their differences and quarrels behind them in order to survive the terrors thrown their way. Along with learning to deal with each other, they have to learn to deal with their inner demons. And with their newfound visions, it's making it harder than it needs to be. As their pasts and futures are revealed, other truths are brought to the surface as well. Fate brought them together for a reason. The only question is, was it to save them, or destroy them? Much is to come in their dark and mysterious adventures, some of it they might not be ready for.
