Lanark, a modern vision of hell set in the disintegrating cities of Unthank and Glasgow, tells the interwoven stories of Lanark and Duncan Thaw.

Their search leads them to the riches of Krysal, whose crystal cities tell stories of well-fed citizens... and strength that can be bought.

But the luxury makes him uneasy, and the Frontier elites speak of a rot at the nation's core.

I was the most powerful healer in my world—the best, having devoted my entire life to mastering the art of healing. And yet, for whatever reason, my brother feared that I sought to claim his throne, and he marshaled his forces against me. Anyway, it doesn't matter, all the same I'd been...

What can be better than attending a magic academy? New friends, new knowledge, new emotions. All you have to do is study, close rifts, and not think too much of anything else.

Let them try! A chaos warrior never runs from trouble!

On Chaco Rez, keeping the balance between life and death is sacred—and darkness never sleeps for long. Years after her fight with Black Bear, Kai senses something is wrong. Children are vanishing without a trace, and whispers move through the canyons of a whistling man and his devil dog—shadows that refuse to stay buried. At her side is Chaco, a crow who can fly between worlds, bound to protect Kai and the power she carries. But when something from his past returns, he’s forced to confront memories he thought were buried forever.

Living with narcolepsy means his nights don’t end when his eyes open. Dreams fracture into waking hours. Nightmares repeat, evolve, and refuse to reset. Voices follow him. Rooms shift. Doors lead nowhere—or somewhere worse. When Jacob seeks help, he’s told something far more disturbing than a diagnosis: some minds never fully return.

If faith may be tested, why not test the Devil as well? That question begins the strange confession of Elijah Booker. Presented as a recovered manuscript, Try Satan follows the reflections of a man who decided to run an experiment most people would never dare attempt. What begins as a simple challenge to the unseen quickly opens a door into a world where belief, ambition, and power move through society in ways few people ever see. As Elijah’s life begins to shift in ways both fortunate and deeply unsettling, he starts to glimpse the hidden patterns beneath everyday success and failure.

There is no crime to fit this sentence; there is no sentence to fit this crime... Roman Prefect Pontius Pilate’s words are echoed by the zealot Judas Iscariot only hours before history takes a bloody turn on a cross atop Golgotha on Calvary Hill. Two thousand years later, these words are found scrawled in blood in New York next to three crucified men hanging on a basement wall.

Everybody knows you can't take anything with you when you die... almost everybody. In a fit of rage, a dying spiritually challenged woman vows to cheat death and take her vast fortune with her when she dies. Somehow. Unfortunately, cryogenics leaves her cold. When she stumbles on the fact that the Tibetan Buddhists have found the Dalai Lama’s reincarnation 13 times, she becomes obsessed with leaving everything to herself. But some things can't be bought, and prophecies can be unpredictable.

A judge who sentenced thousands. A murderer who served his time. A saint who judged everyone. A priest who looked away. An atheist who never believed. And a dog. They're all dead. They're all in the waiting room. And they're all about to learn that Heaven and Hell aren't what they expected. Welcome to the divine bureaucracy.
