Just one last stop in Peru, right? How could that go wrong? When Paxton asks to see the famous Nazca Lines, Samantha Moon figures it’s an easy detour—just teleport to the desert, snap a few pics, and call it a day. But the lines aren’t just ancient art. They’re giant glyphs that act as spirit gates, sucking the whole family into a demi-plane teeming with feathered warrior-people, bizarre mesas, and ancient magic. To get home, Sam strikes a deal with an ancient spider demigod. Her price? Rescue 10,000 stolen eggs from the bird people’s sky city before they’re devoured. Cue aerial...

In 2411, overpopulation has spread a plaque of filthy, congested city to the corners of the Earth. Government has raised corruption to an art form, and no one hears the cries of those left to die in the dark passageways of civilization. Following the End of Nations, people cling to the only division left: social status. Since running away from home four years ago, Sima has managed to stay a step ahead of death - or worse.

Deputy Marshal Zebediah Clemens has a problem: the dead aren’t staying in their graves. As a lawman, Zeb’s life is already complicated, but his duties don’t end with the living. He’s tasked with protecting the world from things most people don’t believe in—and it’s getting harder to keep the balance between the mundane and the supernatural.

They survived the accident that made them superhuman. Now they’re racing to stop the one that will end the world. Mira Verborgen and Giancarlo Bianchi never asked to become living physics anomalies—able to shapeshift, heal instantly, and defy the laws of matter. But the same catastrophic experiment that gave them their powers also turned them into ticking time bombs. With just weeks before they detonate like nuclear weapons, they’re desperate to find a cure. The only chance? Repeating the experiment in a working particle collider. But their old enemy Dr. Orlov—insane, equally ...

Sarah Wright doesn’t think something as minor as death should get in the way of her future. With the worst summer of her life behind her, it’s time to start focusing on her education. An immortal vampire - even if she is still new at it - pursuing a degree may or may not be a waste of time, but it at least it’s a way to keep up an illusion of sanity.

A move to the small town of Spring Falls, New York, is the perfect cure for Mia Gartner’s horrid commute. However, her new home isn’t quite empty. She adored working in fine art restoration, but a two-hour ride each way got old fast. When her husband found a house for sale at a suspiciously low price, they jumped at it. Mia expected chemical contamination, a fixer-upper, or termites, so when the problem turned out to be persistent rumors of haunting, she set aside her worries.

Sophie lives in a most peculiar cottage at the center of the Forgotten Forest, its inside much larger than its outside. You see, the house must be large, for it holds a great troll as well as a little girl. As one might expect, working for such a creature is rather frightening to a seven-year-old, but the endless expanse of black trees outside is even scarier. She’s afraid to make even the slightest sound, for the troll abhors loud children. He’s not terribly fond of quiet children either - unless they’re in his stew. Sophie’s precious light offers comfort in her darkest moments.

The universe holds various immutable constants: death, gravity, taxes...and the Wright family road trip. Every summer, Dad plans a vacation-by-car somewhere across the country. Lameness has increased each year, but Sarah blames that on growing older. She thought dying might get her out of going, but her father’s not about to let something that trivial put an end to the tradition. Of course, as a vampire, Sarah can’t seem to go anywhere without attracting the weird...and the deadly.

The loving family and peaceful life he’s so long yearned for seems to be within his grasp; that is until Yuiv starts having vivid nightmares. His glowing Kalyra eyes mark these dreams as supernatural, proof that he has the gift of Farsight -a power held only by the Al’Kalyra or Arch Sage. As frightening as the idea of being Valcoria’s prophesied savior is, the terror of what Yuiv witnesses in ...

It’s the perfect hometown for a man who cannot die.

Life is difficult for the world’s tiniest superhero. Her genius plan to save her parents from supervillainy in one easy step proved impossible - at least not without destroying the Earth.

Anyone with the skill to maintain a vehicle (and the balls to hit the road) can seek fortune and glory running jobs for the Roadhouse.
