It's been eighteen months since the Raxter School for Girls was put under quarantine. Since the Tox hit and pulled Hetty's life out from under her.

It started slow. First the teachers died one by one. Then it began to infect the students, turning their bodies strange and foreign. Now, cut off from the rest of the world and left to fend for themselves on their island home, the girls don't dare wander outside the school's fence, where the Tox has made the woods wild and dangerous. They wait for the cure they were promised as the Tox seeps into everything.

But when Byatt goes missing, Hetty will do anything to find her, even if it means breaking quarantine and braving the horrors that lie beyond the fence. And when she does, Hetty learns that there's more to their story, to their life at Raxter, than she could have ever thought true.

"[A] deliriously creepy tale...that'll keep your nightmares up at night." --Melissa Albert, New York Times bestselling author of The Hazel Wood From the author of the New York Times bestseller Wilder Girls comes a feverishly twisty thriller about a girl whose past has always been a mystery--until she decides to return to her mother's hometown . . . where history has a tendency to repeat itself. Ever since Margot was born, it's been just her and her mother, struggling to get along. But that's not enough for Margot. She wants family. She wants a past. And she may have just found the answer: A photograph, pointing her to a town called Phalene. Only, when Margot gets there, it's not what she bargained for. As soon as they see her face, everyone in town knows who Margot belongs to. It's unmistakable--she's a Nielsen. And when a mysterious girl who could be Margot's twin is pulled from a fire, Margot realizes that her mother left Phalene for a reason. But was it to hide her past? Or was it to protect Margot from what's still there? The only thing Margot knows for sure is there's poison in their family tree, and their roots are dug so deeply into Phalene that now that she's there, she might never escape.

Best-seller do New York Times, Meninas selvagens é a emocionante história de terror feminista sobre três melhores amigas que estão em quarentena em um colégio interno e o que acontece quando uma delas desaparece. Há dezoito meses, a Escola Raxter para Meninas entrou em quarentena. Há dezoito meses, uma misteriosa doença virou a vida de Hetty do avesso. Começou devagar. Primeiro, as professoras foram morrendo, uma a uma. Então, começou a infectar as alunas, transformando o corpo delas em algo cada vez mais estranho. Isoladas do resto do mundo e deixadas à própria sorte, as meninas não se atrevem a ultrapassar o limite da escola. Hetty, Byatt e Reese esperam a cura prometida enquanto a doença se alastra. Mas tudo muda quando Byatt desaparece. Hetty não medirá esforços para encontrá-la, mesmo que isso signifique quebrar a quarentena e desbravar os horrores que as esperam além da cerca que separa a escola da floresta. E quando Hetty se lança rumo ao desconhecido, descobre que há muito mais mistérios por trás dessa história que ela jamais poderia imaginar. Meninas selvagens combina um cenário de terror com a angústia e a ternura da adolescência para explorar até onde um grupo de meninas é capaz de ir para sobreviver e se manter unido. Rory Power constrói uma narrativa que, por vezes irregular e flutuante, demonstra a originalidade e potência de sua escrita, tornando-se uma das novas apostas do gênero. Com Meninas selvagens, estreia – brilhantemente – no universo da ficção juvenil. "Power habilmente tece uma narrativa arrepiante que supera as expectativas dos leitores, um soco impressionante no estômago." - Kirkus Reviews "Uma belíssima ficção literária jovem que fala de sobrevivência durante uma epidemia viral grotesca em um colégio interno. Não consegui parar de ler." - Casey McQuistion, autora de Vermelho, branco e sangue azul. "O tipo perfeito de história para a nossa sociedade atual." - Hypable "O Senhor das moscas feminista de Power certamente será uma das obras mais comentadas da temporada, em qualquer gênero." – Entertainment Weekly "Original, aterrorizante e lindo... os leitores serão consumidos e impactados pelas meninas selvagens." - NPR

Faeries Never Lie

“Fresh and original . . . full of lush writing and detailed worldbuilding . . . [with a] rich fantasy landscape and an almost Shakespearean feel.”—Paste Twins imbued with incredible magic and near-immortality will do anything to keep their family in power—even if it tears the family apart—in the first book of a mythic epic fantasy duology from the New York Times bestselling author of Wilder Girls. ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2022—BookPage Rhea and Lexos were born into a family unlike any other. Together with their siblings, they control the seasons, the tides, and the stars, and help their father rule their kingdom. Thanks to their magic, the family has ruled for an eternity, and plan to rule for an eternity more. But Rhea and Lexos are special: They are twins, bonded down to the bone, and for the past hundred years, that bond has protected them as their father becomes an unpredictable tyrant—and his worsening temper threatens the family’s grip on power. Now, with rival nations ready to attack, and a rebel movement within their own borders, Rhea and Lexos must fight to keep the kingdom—and the family—together, even as treachery, deceit, and drama threaten to strand the twins on opposite sides of the battlefield. In a Garden Burning Gold is a vividly written, atmospheric saga that explores the limits of power and the bonds of family—and how far both can be bent before they break.

Det har gått arton månader sedan sjukdomen bröt ut och internatskolan sattes i karantän. Det började långsamt. Först dog lärarna, en efter en, sedan blev eleverna sjuka. Vissa dog, andra bara ... förändrades. Förvildades. Nu, helt avskurna från omvärlden, vågar ingen elev gå utanför stängslet som omgärdar skolan. De väntar på botemedlet som de har blivit lovade av regeringen, medan viruset ständigt hittar sätt att ta sig in. Men när Hettys bästa vän försvinner förändras allt. Hetty tänker hitta henne, även om det innebär att hon måste bryta karantänen och ta sig ut genom stängslet. Och när hon gör det inser hon att eleverna på skolan inte har fått veta hela sanningen om viruset. Inte ens i närheten.
