Sira, the queen of the Below, has threatened open war, and there are no lengths she won't go to destroy us. But she might not get the chance… we may destroy ourselves first. After months apart, I'm finally reunited with my five mates in the heart of Winter. Our only hope to defeat Sira lies in the shattered remains of an enchanted rose. If my father can restore it, we'll gain control over Sira's creations and end her reign for good. But deep beneath the snow, a new threat stirs, one with vengeance in its heart and Keldarion in its sights. As Winter braces for war, my mates each face their own reckonings. Farron has embraced a terrifying power beyond imagination. Dayton has risen from the land of the dead, only to wish he were still there. Echoes of Spring's empty throne follow Ezryn everywhere he goes. And Caspian and Kel continue to wage their own war―one of trust and love that has haunted them for decades. The realms are fracturing. Castletree is fading. And darkness has crept into my heart, too. I'm the Princess of the Enchanted Vale. If I can't find a way through this, no one will. Everyone is intent on taking away everything that I love. My home. My people. My mates. I won't let them.

And, as always, the working class is still being pushed aside to make way for white, wealthy newcomers.

As one seeks influence in politics, the younger two are drawn into the dangerous, shadowy world of private security and militias. In the precarious new world that these three brothers navigate, J. M.

However, in a society that shuns literature and promotes violence, his fate is compromised. But Roy is given a choice: he can either brave the front lines and fight the Old Ones, the mysterious, black-armored soldiers invading Northgard -- or he can investigate their identity in the Orphic Basilica, an ancient, abandoned library. When Roy chooses to unravel the mystery, it soon becomes clear that the Orphic Basilica isn't without its own horrors. Strange voices echo down the halls, ghosts with burning red eyes roam the bookshelves, and those who stepped foot in the library have either emerged insane or were driven to their own demise. Roy's only companion -- and his partner in the investigation -- is Percival Atherton, a manipulative, enigmatic and distractingly charming scholar who has no qualms about belittling Roy. As a fierce snowstorm sinks its claws into the city, isolating them from civilization, Roy and Percival must grapple with their tormented pasts, an unexpected romance, and an age-old conspiracy whose secrets are certain to wipe Northgard from history." -- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4734025</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4734025</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Francis, Max]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4734025234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063425828/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shadow Strike]]></title><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4727396</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4727396</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Taylor, Brad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4727396234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063433199/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Princeweaver]]></title><description><![CDATA["Born with forbidden, nature-infused magic in an occupied land, anxious apothecary Meilyr survives by keeping his head down.

It was only the very foolish, or the very determined, who held out hope for their return. In the wake of World War I, the world is a decidedly unmagical place for Misneach "Mouse" Dunne. Mouse once dreamed of becoming a Faerie anthropologist, but with one telegram, her world shattered. At the Somme, her cousin Bertie's body disappeared into the mud, and her brother, Roger, came home with devastating shell shock. It was time, she knew, to put aside childish dreams. When Mouse receives news that her uncle, Lord Dewhurst, has left her Thistlemarsh Hall, a dilapidated manor in the English countryside, she has to return to her childhood home and claim her birthright. Thistlemarsh was blessed by the Faerie King himself before the Faeries left England for good. But there is a catch in Lord Dewhurst's offer: If Mouse does not rehabilitate the crumbling house in one month's time, Mouse will forfeit her inheritance and any hope of caring for her brother. It quickly becomes clear it's impossible to repair the manor in the allotted time, until a mysterious Faerie appears with a proposition. He offers to restore Thistlemarsh . . . for a small price. Mouse knows better than to trust a Faerie-especially one so insufferably handsome and arrogant-but she is out of options. There are dark and magical forces at work in the house, and Mouse must confront the ghosts of her past and the secrets of her heart or lose Thistlemarsh, and herself, in the process"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4727426</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4727426</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Corrigan, Moorea]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4727426234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593819883/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Witch and the Huntress]]></title><description><![CDATA["Medea possesses both witchcraft and cunning, yet she endures a lonely and constrained life under the rule of her wicked father, Aeetes. When the hero Jason arrives, they strike a deal: If Medea helps him win her father’s Golden Fleece, Jason will marry her and take her with him back to Greece. But as the journey unfolds, Medea is forced to choose between the life she expected and the love she secretly desires—and the cost may be greater than she ever imagined. Atalanta, raised by bears, is a capable warrior caught between the wilderness and the human world but never fully part of either. After the sudden disappearance of the woman she loves, Atalanta joins Jason’s Argonauts in an attempt to find her. But when Medea becomes part of the crew, the sorceress awakens something in Atalanta that she cannot ignore. Jason, a skilled diplomat but a reluctant warrior, depends on his heroic companions to help him claim the Golden Fleece and retake the stolen throne of his father. Medea and Atalanta are among his most useful allies, but Jason soon finds that success may demand more than he can give.

She’d be more than happy to oblige, but it’s a bit difficult considering she lives with ten of them, all sent to the green to gain power or die. With Kaylin’s help, they finally escaped their imprisonment. But their attempts at freedom had devastating consequences—and a price that has yet to be paid. The first warning sign is the Consort’s invitation to visit the High Halls—a Barrani invitation, which means an immediate visit. The second sign is less subtle: Kaylin finds Nightshade’s unresponsive body. He hovers on the edge of death, beyond saving through Kaylin’s healing power. No one can explain his state, nor why she’s powerless to save him. And if she and her Barrani friends can’t figure out a way to bring him back, he’ll be lost forever.

Abandoned by her childhood sweetheart, she left her gossiping small town, heartbreak, and emotionally distant father in the past. Now, she's happy if not just a bit bored running a magical flower shop with her best friend. Until she receives notice that she's inherited her father's sanctuary for magical creatures. Reece heads back to her cozy, magical town of Honey Brooke that unfortunately still hasn't gotten over that one teeny, tiny fire incident when she was a teenager. What should've been a calm, quiet homecoming turns into chaos incarnate when Reece comes face-to-face with the reason she left in the first place: Laken Augustus. Her ex-boyfriend who seems to have grown up to also be a part-time assassin. It's one tragedy after another, from dodging fire-spitting chickens and a poisonous porcupine to bolting after a runaway raccoon and realizing Laken is the only person who knows how to run a magical sanctuary. Not only did her father leave her with a whole slew of problems, but poachers are lurking in the shadows. Now Reece finds herself knee-deep in feathers, mud, and an inconceivable amount of debt. To save the sanctuary, she will have to work side-by-side with Laken"--Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4744762</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4744762</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Epperson, Taylor (Novelist)]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4744762234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781538776445/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[First Mage on the Moon]]></title><description><![CDATA["Ella Pickering is drowning in debt.

Zara has never felt worthy as the daughter of her tribe's Queen. She has inherited the duty as First Daughter, next in line to lead her people, but she hasn't inherited what matters most-her mother's Earth magic. Every day, her people and their horse companions are closer to losing the war against the Eagle Riders. They know if that happens, the enemy will ravage their land and destroy any remains of their culture. But when a rider attacks Zara herself, she suddenly manifests a Wind magic powerful enough to knock giant eagles from the sky. With this power, Zara could change the tide of the war.

So when a treaty is proposed in exchange for her hand in marriage to the enemy's emperor, Zara makes the sacrifice. She soon finds that the emperor's palace is even more hostile than the battlefield.

Kea Petrova is dealing with more than her fair share of trouble. At just twenty-five years old, she's the youngest of five Hawaiian clan leaders living on the Homestead in outer Los Angeles. Nearly 200 years ago, when a catastrophic flood submerged the Hawaiian islands and unleashed magic into the world, these clans forged a treaty with the city, establishing a new Hawaiian homeland. But that treaty is about to expire. Kea struggles to keep her small clan afloat, scraping together rent each month through odd jobs and selling her own crafted Hawaiian language spells. While her talent for language magic is her saving grace, she feels like a shadow of those who came before her. Just when she thinks things can't get any more complicated, the murder of Angelo Reyes--LA's most prominent Filipino activist--turns her world upside-down. Angelo was killed by a death spell--something that, due to the properties of each school of language magic, can only exist in Hawaiian. With independent spellsmithing being technically illegal, Kea quickly becomes the prime suspect, known for her spellwork on the Homestead. To clear her name, she must unravel the mystery behind Angelo's murder and confront LA's most powerful (and dangerous) players, each wielding their own type of magic. The clock is ticking--can Kea save herself, her clan, and the Homestead before it's too late?]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4735208</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4735208</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kauwe, Shay]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4735208234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781668053287/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stay for A Spell]]></title><description><![CDATA["An overworked princess is cursed to remain in a bookshop until she discovers what her heart truly longs for, in this utterly charming and romantic cozy fantasy debut. Princess Tanadelle of the Widdenmar is disillusioned with life as a princess. She longs for real conversation, uninterrupted reading time and the chance to build a life of her own making. During a routine royal visit to the town of Little Pepperidge, Tandy's dream comes true when she finds herself cursed to remain in a run-down bookshop until she finds her heart's desire. No stranger to curses, and more than a little thrilled, she settles into life among the stacks. She soon discovers that running a bookshop is more than just whiling away the days curled up with a good book. Business is far from booming, Tandy's teenage goth assistant tries her patience, and an infuriatingly handsome pirate with a curse of his own keeps showing up and stealing her books. Despite it all, something about Tandy's new life might just make her happy, and she's determined to make it work. There are just seven minor problems. With her royal duties unfulfilled, the frantic king and queen send the seven princes of the realms to bestow upon Tandy a kiss, each one hoping to break the curse. They arrive, each more ridiculous than the last, delighted to be the manifestation of her heart's desire.
