Out of This World
The heart-pounding conclusion to the thrilling Wildlings trilogy. At the end of Over My Head, Josh has propelled himself into the Otherworld where he believes his former girlfriend Elzie is in imminent danger. He leaves behind his closest friends: Marina, whose fledgling romance with Theo is increasingly complicated by her undeniable feelings for Josh, and Des, who is trying to figure out his own role amongst his Wildling friends. In this unpredictable world a side-step from our own, Josh discovers more about the awesome power he holds within as he deals with hostility from certain animal clans and elders. Back in Santa Feliz his friends are facing a huge anti-Wildling rally that threatens all Wildling teens with segregation and incarceration. In the most tense and perilous of circumstances in both worlds, Josh and his friends must rely on each other''s love, ingenuity and loyalty just to survive. "Charles de Lint writes like a magician. He draws out the strange inside our own world, weaving stories that feel more real than we are when we read them. He is, simply put, the best." - Holly Black "Charles de Lint''s greatest strength...is his obvious love for his characters, and empathy for people generally. ...he is showing us people living up to their potential, rather than down to it. And that is what makes de Lint''s books rewarding." - Locus Magazine "De Lint''s evocative images, both ordinary and fantastic, jolt the imagination." - Publishers Weekly "Unlike most fantasy writers who deal with battles between ultimate good and evil, de Lint concentrates on smaller, very personal conflicts. Perhaps this is what makes him accessible to the non-fantasy audience as well as the hard-core fans. Perhaps it''s just damned fine writing." - Quill & Quire

For the past six months, something has been happening to young people in Santa Feliz. Week after week, there''s news of another teen changing shape, transforming from human to wild animal and back again. The federal government has stepped in, asking affected youth to turn themselves in for "orientation and training." Josh Saunders has seen the news reports, but he''s still unprepared when it happens to him. One minute he''s arguing with his mother''s boyfriend and the next he''s looming over the man, blood dripping from his claws—he has transformed into a mountain lion. Trusting only his best friends Des and Marina with his secret, Josh tries to return to normal life. But when an accidental betrayal reveals Josh''s secret, his carefully constructed cover is ripped apart, forcing his friends to intervene.

Juniper Wiles Does Not Want to be Queen

release date: Jan 01, 2025
Juniper Wiles Does Not Want to be Queen
"Anyone who knows her wouldn''t be surprised to learn that Jilly sees the world through a prism of faerie tales. It was years before I came to understand that she wasn''t just being whimsical when she talked so easily about hobs and brownies and various kinds of faerie creatures. They were real. Faerieland, otherworlds, and all the denizens and creatures you might imagine to live there. It was all real. And so were ghosts. I remember when I first realized this. I felt like my head was going to explode. Juniper left her life as a Hollywood actor to live quietly back home in Newford. The last thing she wants is to be involved in the media circus that is the Newford ComicFest. But when Galfreya, the seer of the local Faerie Court, comes to her with a prediction ("If you go, there will be trouble. If you don''t go, the result will be catastrophic.") she feels she doesn''t have much of a choice. Turns out the distance between trouble and catastrophe isn''t as wide as Juniper and her friends hoped. Sometimes you just can''t win." --
