New Releases by Tessa Gratton

A talented heretic must decide between the pursuit of forbidden magic, or the ecstasy of forbidden love—either way, her choice will upend the world, in the start of a sweeping, romantic epic fantasy trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Tessa Gratton. Can an empire trip and fall on a mere strand of silk? Iriset is a prodigy and an outlaw. The daughter of a powerful criminal, she dons her alter ego Silk to create magical disguises for those in her father’s organization, but she longs to do more with her talent: to enhance what it means to be human by giving people wings, night-sight, and other abilities; to unlock the possibilities of gender and parenthood; to cure disease and even to end mortality itself. Everything changes when her father is captured and sentenced to death. To save him, Iriset must infiltrate the palace and the empire’s fanatical ruling family. There, she realizes she has a chance—and an obligation—to bring down the entire corrupt system. She''ll have to entangle herself in the lives of the emperor and his sister, getting them to trust and even to love her. But love is a two-way street, and Iriset’s own heart holds the most mysterious and impenetrable magic of all.

Explore a Fase II da Alta República. Ambientada 150 anos antes dos eventos da fase anterior, é uma era de transformação que gera novas esperanças e possibilidades… mas também traz novos perigos. O planeta Dalna, na Orla Exterior, tornou-se o foco de uma investigação Jedi sobre um artefato da Força roubado, e Zallah Macri e seu Padawan, Kevmo Zink, chegam ao mundo pastoral para verificar uma possível conexão entre o roubo e um grupo missionário chamado Caminho da Mão Aberta. Membros do Caminho acreditam que a Força tem que ser livre e não deve ser usada por ninguém, nem mesmo pelos Jedi. Marda Ro é uma das jovens fiéis do grupo, e sonha em partir de Dalna para espalhar os dogmas do Caminho pela galáxia. Quando Marda e Kevmo se conhecem, a conexão entre os dois é instantânea e elétrica – até Marda descobrir que Kevmo é um Jedi. Mas ele é tão gentil e quer tanto aprender sobre o Caminho que ela espera conseguir convencê-lo de que sua crença é a correta. O que Marda não percebe é que a líder do Caminho, uma mulher carismática conhecida apenas como a Mãe, tem outras intenções, que nunca poderiam coexistir com os Jedi de forma pacífica. E, para seguir a própria fé, Marda pode ter que escolher virar a pior inimiga de seu novo amigo… Sobre as autoras Tessa Gratton escreve romances e contos YA e para adultos que foram traduzidos para mais de vinte idiomas e indicados a diversos prêmios.

The reunited Jedi prepare to strike back against the ruthless Nihil in this thrilling sequel to Star Wars: The Eye of Darkness. For over a year, Jedi Masters Avar Kriss and Elzar Mann were kept apart by the Nihil’s Stormwall. After Avar makes a daring escape from inside the Occlusion Zone, the star-crossed Jedi are reunited. But while the physical distance between them has evaporated, their shared grief over their failure to protect the galaxy from the Nihil threat remains. To rally the Jedi Order and the Republic, Avar and Elzar cling to their belief in serving Light and Life. Together, they lead a daring mission into Nihil space to liberate the planet of Naboo and show those trapped behind the Stormwall that the Jedi will never abandon them. Now back within close orbit of each other, the two Jedi Masters can no longer deny the bond that has always drawn them back together and made them stronger. After finally embracing their true desires and imbued with renewed purpose, Avar and Elzar devise a plan to turn the tide of the conflict with the Nihil once and for all. Accompanied by Jedi Knights Bell Zettifar, Burryaga, and Vernestra Rwoh, the Jedi begin their hunt for Marchion Ro. But to seek out the Nihil’s dangerous leader, the Jedi will have to survive the Nameless terrors that thus far they have been powerless to stop.

Bloody magic. Ancient fury. Prepare for the gripping conclusion to the Chaos & Flame saga, the "fast-paced, action-filled fantasy that reads like a mix of Game of Thrones and Avatar: The Last Airbender" (BCCB) from two beloved New York Times bestselling authors. A single kiss set Chaos ablaze. Picking up months after betrayal transformed Darling Seabreak into the long-lost Phoenix and every House regent into their empyreal form, Darling struggles to make sense of her destiny as a legendary creature. How can she, an orphan with no family, be the one to reunite the fractured houses and bring about peace, if she can't control the magic of her new Phoenix body? Talon Goldhoard, still in love with Darling but wounded by her betrayal, is tasked with ending the vicious war that his family instigated. With the Phoenix reborn, Talon is hopeful that the bloodshed will end swiftly. Instead, the kingdom grows more fraught, with the threat of violence ever present – especially from dark, conniving forces within the walls of his own House Dragon. As Chaos reigns, Talon and Darling must find their way back to each other – not only to survive but to save the kingdom. Can Darling harness the power of the ancient magic that runs through her blood to bring about a new peace? Or will the fury that House Dragon fueled for a hundred-year war be too strong to break?

Two New York Times bestselling authors deliver a "fast-paced, action filled fantasy [that] reads like a mix of Game of Thrones and Avatar: The Last Airbender" (BCCB) in the first book of a YA duology featuring ancient magic, warring factions, and a romance rooted in betrayal, now in paperback. House Dragon murdered Darling Seabreak's family. She owes her life to both the power of her Chaos Boon and House Kraken for liberating her from the sewers where she spent her childhood. When her adoptive Kraken father is captured in battle, Darling vows to save him—even if that means killing each and every last member of House Dragon. Talon Goldhoard is the dutiful War Prince for House Dragon, bravely leading the elite troops of his brother, the High Prince Regent. But lately his brother’s erratic rule threatens to undo a hundred years of House Dragon’s hard work. Then Talon is ambushed by a fierce girl who looks exactly like the one his brother has painted obsessively, repeatedly, for years, and he knows she’s the key to everything. Together, Darling and Talon must navigate the treacherous waters of House politics, caught up in the complicated game the High Prince Regent is playing against everyone. Unlikely allies, they’ll have to stop fighting each other long enough to learn to fight together in order to survive the fiery prophecies and ancient blood magic threatening to devastate their entire world.

Zallah Macri und ihr Padawan Kevmo Zink gehen auf Dalan einer möglichen Verbindung zu einer Missionarsgruppe namens Pfad der Offenen Hand nach. Die Mitglieder des Pfades glauben, dass die Macht von niemandem benutzt werden sollte, nicht einmal von den Jedi. Eine dieser Gläubigen ist Marda Ro, eine junge Frau, die davon träumt, Dalna zu verlassen und die Botschaft des Pfades in der ganzen Galaxis zu verbreiten. Marda und Kevmo fühlen sich sofort zueinander hingezogen – bis Marda entdeckt, dass Kevmo ein Jedi ist. Aber Kevmo ist so freundlich und begierig darauf, mehr über den Pfad zu erfahren, dass sie hofft, ihn von der Richtigkeit ihres Glaubens überzeugen zu können. Was Marda nicht weiß, ist, dass die Anführerin des Pfades, eine charismatische Frau, die nur als die Mutter bekannt ist, ihre ganz eigenen Ziele verfolgt. Und diese sehen keinen Frieden mit den Jedi vor.

Celebrate Wonder Woman''s 80th anniversary with this original new saga about Diana Prince. When a magical threat targets both Washington’s elite and its most marginalized, Wonder Woman and the Crimson Avenger unite to mete out justice. Diana Prince lives a double life. No one would ever suspect the studious anthropologist of secretly being Wonder Woman, gifted with godlike powers from her home in Themyscira. Only a few people—such as Dr. Barbara Minerva, the famed archeologist—know the truth, and Diana intends to keep it that way. When she witnesses the very-public murder of an influential Washington D.C. insider, Diana’s two worlds collide. Because only someone with powers like hers would be capable of siphoning a man’s heart. She’s determined to stop them before they strike again. Meanwhile, Jill Carlyle—also known as the Crimson Avenger— is investigating a murder of her own. Frustrated by how justice is often awarded to the privileged, Jill will do anything to ensure that marginalized victims aren’t forgotten. Even if it means getting in Wonder Woman’s way. As more hearts are stolen across the city, Diana, Barbara, and Jill realize the crimes are connected. Restoring harmony requires overcoming their biases—and the dark secret one of them is keeping— before the chaos tears them further apart. Written by Natalie C. Parker, Tessa Gratton, Alaya Dawn Johnson, and Heidi Heilig. Voiced by Tiana Camacho. TM & © DC Comics. (s20)

Tessa Gratton's Lady Hotspur is a sweeping, heart-stopping Shakespearean novel of betrayal and battlefields and destiny. STRIKE FAST, LOVE HARD, LIVE FOREVER This is the motto of the Lady Knights—sworn to fealty under a struggling kingdom, promised to defend the prospective heir, Banna Mora. But when a fearsome rebellion overthrows the throne, Mora is faced with an agonizing choice: give up everything she's been raised to love, and allow a king-killer to be rewarded—or retake the throne, and take up arms against the newest heir, Hal Bolingbrooke, Mora's own childhood best friend and sworn head of the Lady Knights. Hal loathes being a Prince; she's much more comfortable instated on the Throne of Misrule, a raucous underground nether-court where passion rules all. She yearns to live up to the wishes of everyone she loves best—but that means sacrificing her own heart, and so she will disappoint everyone until the moment she can rise to prove those expectations wrong. And between these two fierce Princes is the woman who will decide all their fates—Lady Hotspur, the fiery and bold knight whose support will turn the tides of the coming war.
