Stain
A princess must win back her kingdom, save a prince, and restore peace in this fantasy by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Splintered series. After Lyra—a princess incapable of speech or sound—is cast out of her kingdom of daylight by her wicked aunt, a witch saves her life, steals her memories, and raises her in an enchanted forest…disguised as a boy known only as Stain. Meanwhile, in Lyra’s rival kingdom, the prince of thorns and night is dying, and the only way for him to break his curse is to wed the princess of daylight—for she is his true equal. As Lyra finds her way back to her identity, an imposter princess prepares to steal her betrothed prince and her crown. To win back her kingdom, save the prince, and make peace with the land of the night, Lyra must be loud enough to be heard without a voice, and strong enough to pass a series of tests—ultimately proving she’s everything a traditional princess is not. “A decadent fantasy anchored in childhood delights with vibrantly detailed writing and brilliantly theatrical subplots.” —Kirkus Reviews “[A] reimagining of “The Princess and the Pea” . . . An emotionally complex tale of fate, inner beauty, and found family that illustrates the strength of love born from friendship.” —Publishers Weekly

And Morpheus delves into Jeb’s memories of the events of Splintered in The Moth in the Mirror. Praise for Splintered: “Splintered is dark, twisted, entirely riveting, and a truly romantic tale.” —USA Today “Brilliant, because it is ambitious, inventive, and often surprising — a contemporary reworking of Lewis Carroll’s “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,’’ with a deep bow toward Tim Burton’s 2010 film version.” —The Boston Globe “It’s a deft, complex metamorphosis of this children’s fantasy made more enticing by competing romantic interests, a psychedelic setting, and more mad violence than its original.” —Booklist “Protagonist Alyssa . . . is an original. Howard’s visual imagination is superior. The story’s creepiness is intriguing as horror, and its hypnotic tone and setting, at the intersection of madness and creativity, should sweep readers down the rabbit hole.” —Publishers Weekly “Creepy, descriptive read with a generous dollop of romance.” —School Library Journal

A continuação de O Lado mais Sombrio "Sinistra, exótica e surpreendente, esta incrível releitura do clássico de Lewis Carroll oferece mais do que uma nova perspectiva de Alice no País das Maravilhas. Uma aventura fantástica e emocionante, entrelaçada com um drama familiar comovente e uma viagem de autodescoberta. Uma história única, inovadora, que se mantém fiel ao espírito de sua fonte." — Center for Children''s Books, starred review SINOPSE: O PAÍS DAS MARAVILHAS FOI SÓ O COMEÇO... Na releitura dark de Alice no País das Maravilhas, Alyssa Gardner foi coroada Rainha, mas preferiu deixar seus afazeres para trás e viver no mundo dos humanos. Durante um ano, ela tentou voltar a ser a Alyssa de antes, com seu namorado, Jeb, sua mãe, que voltou para casa, seus amigos, o baile de formatura e a promessa de ter um futuro em Londres. No entanto, Morfeu, o intraterreno sedutor e manipulador que povoa os sonhos de Alyssa, não permitirá que ela despreze o seu legado. O mesmo vale para o País das Maravilhas, que parece não ter superado o abandono. Alyssa se vê dividida entre dois mundos: Jeb e sua vida como humana... e a loucura inebriante do País das Maravilhas – e Morfeu. Quando esses dois mundos entram em conflito e o reino delirante começa a invadir sua "vida real", Alyssa precisa encontrar uma forma de manter o equilíbrio entre as duas dimensões – ou perder tudo aquilo que mais ama.

O lado mais sombrio
# Livro faz releitura psicodélica e sombria de Alice no País das Maravilhas # Autora recebeu os prêmios Winter 2012 Kids Indie Next List e Eliot Rosewater Indiana High School Book Award List (2014). O Coelho Branco, o Chapeleiro Maluco, o Gato, a Lagarta, a Rainha de Copas... Todos eles estão de volta, e desta vez o assunto é sério. Alyssa precisa enfrentá-los para salvar as mulheres da sua família de uma terrível maldição. Neste romance fantástico e surpreendente, a realidade pode ser muito mais perturbadora do que os sonhos. Alyssa Gardner ouve os pensamentos das plantas e animais. Por enquanto ela consegue esconder as alucinações, mas já conhece o seu destino: terminará num sanatório como sua mãe. A insanidade faz parte da família desde que a sua tataravó, Alice Liddell, falava a Lewis Carroll sobre os seus estranhos sonhos, inspirando-o a escrever o clássico Alice no País das Maravilhas. Mas talvez ela não seja louca. E talvez as histórias de Carroll não sejam tão fantasiosas quanto possam parecer. Para quebrar a maldição da loucura na família, Alyssa precisa entrar na toca do coelho e consertar alguns erros cometidos no País das Maravilhas, um lugar repleto de seres estranhos com intenções não reveladas. Alyssa leva consigo o seu amigo da vida real – o superprotetor Jeb –, mas, assim que a jornada começa, ela se vê dividida entre a sensatez deste e a magia perigosa e encantadora de Morfeu, o seu guia no País das Maravilhas. Ninguém é o que parece no País das Maravilhas. Nem mesmo Alyssa. Comentários "O Lado Mais Sombrio é um livro delicioso, louco, maravilhoso.

"Entrelaçando magia e mistério, perigo e dualidade, autodescoberta e romance, este livro chegou para ficar." — Tera Lynn Childs, autora de Oh. My. Gods

Unhinged

Unhinged
Wonderland causes real-world trouble for a teenage descendant of Alice in this romantic, dark fantasy sequel by the bestselling author of Splintered. Alyssa Gardner has been down the rabbit hole. She was crowned Queen of the Red Court and faced the bandersnatch. She saved the life of Jeb, the boy she loves, and escaped the machinations of the disturbingly appealing Morpheus. Now all she has to do is graduate high school. That would be easier without her mother, freshly released from an asylum, acting overly protective and suspicious. And it would be much simpler if the mysterious Morpheus didn’t show up for school one day to tempt her with another dangerous quest in the dark, challenging Wonderland—where she (partly) belongs. Could she leave Jeb and her parents behind again, for the sake of a man she knows has manipulated her before? Will her mother and Jeb trust her to do what’s right? Readers will swoon over the satisfying return to Howard’s bold, sensual reimagining of Carroll’s classic. “I really enjoyed the first book of this series, but Unhinged cranks the Wonderland experience up to 11. It’s just . . . WOW! The last few scenes dangle Alyssa’s next adventure with shockers enough that I found my jaw needing a bit of assistance in coming off the floor. Write quickly, A. G. Howard! I need that next book!”—USA Today “Howard excels in sensory and sensuous descriptions.” —Kirkus Reviews “As intense, dark, and weird as the first volume, this worthy sequel creates a parallel narrative that brings the action out of Wonderland and into Alyssa’s hometown.” —The Bulletin of The Center for Children’s Books “A dark beauty fills the novel''s pages, which will mesmerize teens with a taste for magic, romance or suspense. Unhinged lays the groundwork for a third book where anything could happen—it is Wonderland, after all.” —Shelf Awareness
