Shadow Run

The rip-roaring space adventure sequel to the book that NYT bestselling author Lindsey Cummings heralded as "an explosive debut" has arrived! Full of action and romance, as if Star Wars was done in the vein of Joss Whedon's Firefly. His throne. Her rebellion. Their war. Qole is the youngest starship captain in living memory on her homeworld of Alaxak and has spent her life hunting a dangerous energy source called Shadow. Alaxans distrust and evade the galaxy's royalty as a rule, but Qole is now harboring the exiled Prince Nevarian Dracorte, along with some very conflicting feelings about it--and him. Nev's feelings are just as complicated, but not towards her. When it comes to Qole, he knows one thing: he'd do anything to stay with her. But when Alaxak is attacked and Nev finds himself framed for murder, he realizes the only way to help Qole and her people is to fight for the throne that should be his. To become the royal she might hate. As for Qole, she would never have imagined herself as the leader of a rebellion. Despite that, she soon realizes that hiding from her power is no longer an option. It's time to answer the call, even if it kills her. "The action is once again breathtaking, heart pounding, and intense...If you loved Shadow Run, you'll devour Shadow Call. The perfect blend of action, intrigue, and a dash of slow-burn romance. I loved every minute!" --Jen Brown Writes "Just as fast-paced and enjoyable as Shadow Run...If you like science fiction, you really have to check out this series." --Here's to Happy Endings

Shadow call

"The Gods made their Words into flesh, giving privileged individuals the powers of creation . . ." In Eden City, a member of the illiterate wordless class would never dream of meeting the all-powerful Words . . . much less of running away with one. So when a gorgeous girl literally falls into his lap during a routine trash run, seventeen-year-old Tavin Barnes isn’t sure if it’s the luckiest or worst day of his life. That girl is Khaya, the Word of Life, who can heal a wound or command an ivy bush to devour a city block with ease. And yet she needs Tavin’s help. By aiding Khaya’s escape from the seemingly idyllic confines of Eden City, Tavin unwittingly throws himself into the heart of a conflict that is threatening to tear the world apart. Eden City’s elite will stop at nothing to protect the shocking secret Khaya hides, and they enlist the other Words, each with their own frightening powers, to bring her back. Praise: "A fast-paced blend of sci-fi fantasy with scary real-world implications...Brilliant." —Chelsea Pitcher, author of The S-Word "The right amount of pizzazz in the form of cinematic action."—KIRKUS REVIEWS "Fast-paced debut."—PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "Impressive mythology and fast-paced adventure."—BOOKLIST "The action is exciting, the setting is interesting, and the characters somewhat compelling." —SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
