A ​Dance with Darkness

Jenna Wolfhart - A ​Song of Shadows
My ​new life at Otherworld Academy went from not-so-normal to downright-crazy fast. My best friend got turned into a shapeshifting beast, the Autumn Court tried to launch an assassination on the changelings, and I can somehow tap into the powers of all four courts. And that's not including my insanely attractive fae instructors who make me feel like the temperature has gone up a thousand degrees. But even though things were crazy before, it was nothing on how they are now. Danger lurks in every corner, new threats are closing in, and the storms are only growing larger. Now, I must learn to harness my powers with my four fae instructors, not only to save the changelings but the entirety of the faerie realm.

Kevin Hearne - Hounded
Atticus ​O’Sullivan, last of the Druids, lives peacefully in Arizona, running an occult bookshop and shape-shifting in his spare time to hunt with his Irish wolfhound. His neighbors and customers think that this handsome, tattooed Irish dude is about twenty-one years old—when in actuality, he’s twenty-one centuries old. Not to mention: He draws his power from the earth, possesses a sharp wit, and wields an even sharper magical sword known as Fragarach, the Answerer. Unfortunately, a very angry Celtic god wants that sword, and he’s hounded Atticus for centuries. Now the determined deity has tracked him down, and Atticus will need all his power—plus the help of a seductive goddess of death, his vampire and werewolf team of attorneys, a sexy bartender possessed by a Hindu witch, and some good old-fashioned luck of the Irish—to kick some Celtic arse and deliver himself from evil.

J. K. Rowling - Harry ​Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Read ​by Jim Dale Running time: 11 hrs., 48 mins. 10 CDs. For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort. Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts...he's at Hogwarts." Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.

Kevin Hearne - Hounded ​- Üldöztetve
Atticus ​O’Sullivan, a druidák utolsó képviselője, békésen éldegél Arizonában, és egy ezoterikus könyvesboltot vezet. Szabadidejében pedig alakot vált, hogy ír farkaskutyájával vadászatra induljon. Szomszédai és vásárlói abban a hiszemben élnek, hogy ez a helyes, tetovált, ír srác egy nappal sem több huszonegy évesnél – pedig éppen huszonegy _évszázada_ él a földön. Azt már ne is említsük, hogy energiáját a földből nyeri, éles nyelve van, és egy még élesebb varázskardja: Fragarach, a Válaszadó. Csak az a probléma, hogy egy fölöttébb dühös kelta isten is szemet vetett a kardjára, és évszázadok óta üldözi érte. Ez a kitartó istenség Atticus nyomára lelt, és barátunknak minden erejére – továbbá egy csábító halálistennő segítségére, vámpír és vérfarkas ügyvédeinek falkájára, egy szexi csaposlányra (akinek fejét egy hindi boszorkány bérelte ki), és egy adag régimódi, ír szerencsére is – szüksége lesz, hogy szétrúgjon néhány kelta ülepet, és megszabadítsa magát a gonosztól… _"Kevin Hearne új lelket lehel az ősi mitológiába, és egy hátborzongatóan ismerős, mégis ijesztően eredeti világot alkot." - Nicole Peeler, a Tempest Rising írója

There ​is a door at the end of a silent corridor. And it's haunting Harry Potter's dreams. Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night, screaming in terror? Here are just a few things on Harry's mind: - A Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a personality like poisoned honey. - A venomous, disgruntled house-elf - Ron as keeper of the Gryffindor Quidditch team - The looming terror of the end-of-term Ordinary Wizarding Level exams . . . and of course, the growing threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Naomi Novik - Uprooted
Naomi ​Novik, author of the bestselling and critically acclaimed Temeraire novels, introduces a bold new world rooted in folk stories and legends, as elemental as a Grimm fairy tale. “Every so often you come upon a story that seems like a lost tale of Grimm newly come to light. Uprooted is such a novel. Its narrative spell is confidently wrought and sympathetically cast. I might even call it bewitching.”—Gregory Maguire, bestselling author of Wicked and Egg & Spoon “Our Dragon doesn’t eat the girls he takes, no matter what stories they tell outside our valley. We hear them sometimes, from travelers passing through. They talk as though we were doing human sacrifice, and he were a real dragon. Of course that’s not true: he may be a wizard and immortal, but he’s still a man, and our fathers would band together and kill him if he wanted to eat one of us every ten years. He protects us against the Wood, and we’re grateful, but not that grateful.” Agnieszka loves her valley home, her quiet village, the forests and the bright shining river. But the corrupted Wood stands on the border, full of malevolent power, and its shadow lies over her life. Her people rely on the cold, driven wizard known only as the Dragon to keep its powers at bay. But he demands a terrible price for his help: one young woman handed over to serve him for ten years, a fate almost as terrible as falling to the Wood. The next choosing is fast approaching, and Agnieszka is afraid. She knows—everyone knows—that the Dragon will take Kasia: beautiful, graceful, brave Kasia, all the things Agnieszka isn’t, and her dearest friend in the world. And there is no way to save her. But Agnieszka fears the wrong things. For when the Dragon comes, it is not Kasia he will choose.
