Fairy School

I knew being the only Norm at Gifted Academy would be hard and dangerous, but I didn't expect to be tossed out of a window. Also didn't expect to be saved by one of the Magnificent Four. Bryce brought me back from the brink of death, but he did more than heal my broken bones. He weakened my defenses and carved a place in my heart. He's not the only one vying for my attention. Rufio, Phoenix, and Morpheus have all changed their attitudes toward me, and recklessly, I want to know where it will lead.

The walls of the School have been seen by thousands of students like you. This is a place where you will be taught how to survive in this cruel world. However, bear in mind that here they value only your battle achievements and successful Ascension. And it's exactly this that'll guide you forward despite failure and punishment.

Children have always disappeared under the right conditions - slipping through the shadows under a bed or at the back of a wardrobe, tumbling down rabbit holes and into old wells, and emerging somewhere...else. But magical lands have little need for used-up miracle children. Nancy tumbled once, but now she's back. The things she's experienced...they change a person. The children under Miss West's care understand all too well. And each of them is seeking a way back to their own fantasy world.

I hate myself for craving the panty-melting demigods. But my awakening power is volatile and destructive. Only they can prevent me from turning into a ticking bomb. When Lucifer's heir breaches the wards of the Academy to kidnap me, the sea demigod, my sworn enemy, uncovers my hidden origin. Instead of exposing me, or, worse, leading the Dominion army to hunt me down, he leaves a trail of dead bodies behind to protect my dangerous secret.

Finding out Ares, the god of war, is my father was a shock. Finding out I'm destined to lead his troops out of the aether and overthrow Cronus himself?

If they think I'm going to forget all their wicked games just because we have a common goal, they're dead wrong. The Queen is taking her throne back, and these three gorgeous jerks are going to have to grovel if they want forgiveness.

It's all fun and games to them - especially when someone gets hurt. One god of mischief and mayhem. One god of fur and fang. And the god of death himself. They've all been out to get me since the school year began, but this semester, the Rabbit's got some tricks up her sleeve. It's time to take these three vicious gods down a peg, or 10, and there's no better route to revenge than directly through the heart.

Most kids at the Colorado branch of Mythos Academy know me as Rory Forseti, the daughter of Reaper assassins.

When my friends and I get a lead on a powerful artifact that Covington wants to steal, we think we finally have a chance to thwart the Reapers and stop them for good.

Eleven-year-old Anthoni Gillis is not the kind of kid who believes in fairies, unicorns, or even the word maybe. She's more of a comic-book girl.

As the last prince of Andirat, he must lead the rebellion in his home country. Isolated from his minion friends, Runt grows suspicious of the rebels, who seem to be working with Dr. Pravus.

Runt Higgins needs answers, fast. Someone cursed him to die on his 16th birthday - but no one seems to know who cursed him or why.

And when one of Runt’s professors is attacked, it soon becomes clear that others are also out to find the Library at any cost. Meanwhile, Runt’s not the only one whose days are numbered.

The only way for Runt to pass the class and stay at Dr. Critchlore’s School is to locate a rare mineral that Dr. Critchlore needs to make an Undefeatable Minion. To find it, Runt must travel to icy Upper Worb and battle gyrfalcons, yetis...and the loathsome team from Dr. Pravus’s school.
