  Two Realms. One Choice. No Second Chance.

  It all begins with FIRSTLIFE.

  I've been told history is written by survivors. But I know that isn't always true. My name is Tenley Lockwood, and very soon, I'll be dead. This is my story--but the end is only the beginning.

  Tenley "Ten" Lockwood has spent the past thirteen months locked inside the Prynne Asylum for refusing to let her parents choose where she'll live--after she dies.

  There is an eternal truth most of the world has come to accept: Firstlife is merely a dress rehearsal, and real life begins after death.

  In the Everlife, two realms are in power: Troika and Myriad, eternal and deadly rivals. Both will do anything to recruit Ten--but they'll also kill her to keep the other realm from signing her. Caught in a dangerous tug-of-war, Ten doesn't know who to trust. Now she must stay alive long enough to make a decision.

  Step through the zombie glass, if you dare! It all starts with ALICE IN ZOMBIELAND...

  She won't rest until she's sent every walking corpse back to its grave.

  Forever.

  Had anyone told Alice Bell that her entire life would change course between one heartbeat and the next, she would have laughed. But that's all it took. One heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and loved was gone.

  Her father was right. The monsters are real.

  To avenge her family, Ali must learn to fight the undead. To survive, she must learn to trust the baddest of the bad boys, Cole Holland. But Cole has secrets of his own, and if Ali isn't careful, those secrets might just prove to be more dangerous than the zombies.

  Looking for a thrilling fantasy filled with unusual magic and enchanted creatures? Then you won't want to miss THE BLACK WITCH from debut author Laurie Forest!

  A Great Winged One will soon arise and cast his fearsome shadow upon the land. And just as Night slays Day, and Day slays Night, so also shall another Black Witch rise to meet him, her powers vast beyond imagining.

  So foretells the greatest prophecy of the Gardnerian mages. Carnissa Gardner, the last prophesied Black Witch, drove back the enemy forces and saved her people during the Realm War. Now a new evil is on the horizon, and her granddaughter, Elloren, is believed to be Carnissa's heir--but while she is the absolute image of her famous grandmother, Elloren is utterly devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above nearly all else.

  When she is granted the opportunity to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming an apothecary, Elloren is eager to join her brothers at the prestigious Verpax University and finally embrace a destiny of her own, free from the shadow of her grandmother's legacy. But she soon realizes that the University, which admits all manner of people--including the fire-wielding, winged Icarals, the sworn enemies of all Gardnerians--is an even more treacherous place for the granddaughter of the Black Witch.
