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.

They're a couple deadly as sin, and as intoxicating as a sip of poison . . .  Return to the world of The Poisoner...  In the shadows of 1890s Buffalo, a poisoner's bite leaves more than just scars--even for the undead. Two years after fleeing London, Alina Lis has built something she never thought possible: a home. Leading a commune of women like herself, she's found a new, greater purpose; experimenting on the Vipera. But peace, she learns, is as fragile as a spider's web in winter. Silas Forbes, the Vipera she escaped, hasn't forgotten. But his thirst for Alina threatens everything he's created in her absence. And he's brought another along for the hunt: Luka Novikov, the man who once betrayed her, now bound to them both by wounds that won't heal and debts that can't be paid. As human and Vipera worlds violently collide, old poisons surface and new alliances form. In a society where survival means choosing sides, Alina must protect the family she's built, Silas must decide what price he'll pay for his obsession, and Luka--marked forever by the poisoner's kiss--must survive the clash of an immortal's longing and a woman's fury. Some venoms have no antidote. Some hungers can never be satisfied.

But when the ship strikes an iceberg and lifeboats are lowered with women and children first, Lord Alfred gives his place to another, and they are separated. Before he goes down with the ship, he asks his friend Bert Banning, a mill owner from Manchester, to promise he’ll marry his daughter and care for her.  Devastated by the loss of Lord Alfred, Victoria and Bert take comfort in their growing friendship. Bert accepts his role as her guardian but, as friendship turns to deeper feelings, hesitates to propose. Not only is he forty years her senior, but her marrying an industrialist will cause Victoria to be ostracized by the aristocratic world she comes from. But she marries Bert and—cruelly shunned by everyone she knows, even family friends—moves to his home in Manchester.  Isolated from her familiar universe and peers, she becomes fascinated by Bert’s business and learns all she can about it. When he meets a tragic end, she steps into his shoes and applies everything she has learned, in spite of opposition from all sides. Taking on the risks, the hard decisions, and the responsibilities, Victoria has the sheer grit that it takes to make a difference in a man’s world and change the limitations women have had to face and defy for centuries."--Amazon.]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4726975</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4726975</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steel, Danielle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4726975234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593973080/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[King of Gluttony]]></title><description><![CDATA[The next book in the Kings of Sin series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Ana Huang.]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4727292</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4727292</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Huang, Ana]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4727292234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781728289779/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love Overboard]]></title><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4749200</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4749200</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steiner, Kandi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4749200234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781923232105/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[More Than Friends]]></title><description><![CDATA["Who knew that returning home after a broken engagement could be the best decision you ever made?

Once every generation, the Elf King enters Luella's village to take a bride to be his Human Queen, fulfilling a centuries-old treaty that prevents the destruction of humanity itself. Luella never thought she’d be that woman. Independent, caring, and fiercely devoted to her people, she’s content in her quiet life as a humble herbalist. But when the Elf King arrives—icy, proud, and dangerously handsome—he claims her, and everything changes. Now, Luella finds herself in the Elf King's domain, Midscape: a land filled with wild magic and unexpected beauty. But Midscape is dying, and only Luella can save it. There's more to Luella than she ever imagined, and more to her fate than she dared dream. As the power of Midscape’s Human Queen stirs within her, so does an unexpected passion. The kingdom has found a way into her heart… as has its mysterious Elf King himself. Luella didn't choose to be the Human Queen. But will she choose to love her new kingdom—and her new husband?]]></description><link>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4740209</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S234C4740209</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kova, Elise]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://tpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4740209234</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798217093045/MC.GIF&amp;client=416-978-7639&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[If You Claim Me]]></title><description><![CDATA[Connor Grace is the league's bad boy--and my best friend's worst enemy.
