Forget the story of Peter Pan you know. Because in Everland, the only way to grow up is to survive. London has been destroyed in a blitz of bombs and disease. The only ones who have survived are children, among them Gwen Darling and her siblings, Joanna and Mikey. They spend their nights scavenging and their days avoiding the ruthless Marauders -- the German Army led by Captain Hanz Otto Oswald Kretschmer. Unsure if the virus has spread past England's borders but desperate to leave, Captain Hook hunts for a cure, which he thinks can be found in one of the survivors. He and his Marauders stalk the streets snatching children for experimentation. None ever return. Until the day they grab Joanna. As Gwen sets out to save her, she meets a mysterious boy named Pete. Pete offers the assistance of his gang of Lost Boys and the fierce sharpshooter Bella, who have all been living in a city hidden underground. But in a place where help has a steep price and every promise is bound by blood, it will cost Gwen. And are she, Pete, the Lost Boys, and Bella enough to outsmart Captain Hook?

Nikki Beckett could only watch as her boyfriend, Jack, sacrificed himself to save her, taking her place in the Tunnels of the Everneath for eternity-a debt that should've been hers. Now she is living a borrowed life, and she doesn't know what to do with the guilt. And every night, Jack appears in her dreams, lost and confused and wasting away. No matter how she tries to reach for his hand, she can never find it. Desperate for answers, Nikki turns to Cole, the immortal bad boy who wants to make her his queen-and the one person least likely to help. But his heart has been touched by everything about Nikki, and he agrees to help in the only way he can: by taking her to the Everneath himself. Nikki and Cole, along with Cole's bandmate Max, descend into the Everneath, only to discover that their journey will be more difficult than they'd anticipated-and more deadly. From a Lake of Blood and Guilt to Sirens' alluring tricks to insurmountable walls of rock and flame, the trio is given every reason to turn back and give up. But Nikki vows to stop at nothing to save Jack-even if it means making an incredible sacrifice of her own. In this breathtaking sequel to Everneath, Brodi Ashton tests the bonds of destiny and explores the lengths we'll go to for the ones we love.

When the hidden border between the mundane world the sisters live in and the magical land they were born in shuts abruptly, the girls are trapped, unable to return home. With the help of a unicorn named Jeremy, they discover a wizard is diverting magic from the border to bolster her own power. Families are cut off from each other on both sides of the border, and an ecological disaster is brewing. But the wizard cares nothing for the calamitous effects her appropriation of magic is having.

Eva Evergreen, Semi-Magical Witch
A young witch must pass a coming-of-age quest or risk losing her magic forever in this enchanting fantasy -- perfect for fans of Kiki's Delivery Service and Aru Shah and the End of Time. Sometimes all you need is a pinch of magic... Eva Evergreen is determined to earn the rank of Novice Witch before her thirteenth birthday. If she doesn't, she'll lose her magic forever. For most young witches and wizards, it's a simple enough test: One: Help your town, do good all around. Two: Live there for one moon, don't leave too soon. Three: Fly home by broomstick, the easiest of tricks. The only problem? Eva only has a pinch of magic. She summons heads of cabbage instead of flowers and gets a sunburn instead of calling down rain. And to add insult to injury, whenever she overuses her magic, she falls asleep. When she lands in the tranquil coastal town of Auteri, the residents expect a powerful witch, not a semi-magical girl. So Eva comes up with a plan: set up a magical repair shop to aid Auteri and prove she's worthy. She may have more blood than magic, but her 'semi-magical fixes' repair the lives of the townspeople in ways they never could have imagined. Only, Eva's bit of magic may not be enough when the biggest magical storm in history threatens the town she's grown to love. Eva must conjure up all of the magic, bravery, and cleverness she can muster or Auteri and her dreams of becoming a witch will wash away with the storm.

Ett Välde Av Stål (Elfte Boken Trollkarlens Ring)
I ETT VÄLDE AV STÅL (BOK ELVA AV TROLLKARLENS RING), är Gwendolyn nödgad att skydda sitt folk, då Kungsgård är under attack. Hon försöker evakuera dem från Ringen – men det finns ett problem: hennes folk vägrar lämna staden. I maktstriden som följer finner Gwen att hennes ledarskap är satt under press för första gången – samtidigt som det största hotet mot Ringen tornar upp sig. Bakom McClouds lurar hotet från Romulus och drakarna, som, med skölden förstörd, kan påbörja en invasion med katastrofala följder, där inget stoppar dem från att förinta Ringen. Romulus, som har Luanda vid sin sida, är ostoppbar så länge månarna räcker, och Gwen måste slåss för sin egen, sitt barns och sitt folks överlevnad – i en episk strid mot drakar och män. Kendrick leder tappert Silverlegionen i strid, och han får sällskap av Elden och Legionsrekryterna, tillsammans med sin bror Godfrey, som överraskar alla, inklusive sig själv, med sitt tappra uppträdande. Men trots det, kanske de inte räcker till. Under tiden ger sig Thor ut på sitt livs uppdrag i Druidernas land, där han vandrar genom ett skrämmande och samtidigt magiskt land, som inte liknar något annat. Det kommer att krävas vartenda uns av styrka och kunnande som han besitter för att ta sig genom landet och han kommer att bli tvungen att söka djupt inom sig själv, för att bli den stora krigare – och druid – som det var menat att han skulle bli. Då han stöter på monster och utmaningar, olika något annat han tidigare ställts mot, riskerar han sitt liv i sökandet efter sin mor. Erec och Alistar reser till de södra öarna, där de välkomnas av sitt folk, inklusive hans tävlingsinriktade bror och avundsjuka syster. Erec har ett sista dramatiskt möte med sin far, medan hela ön förbereder för att han ska ta över tronen och bli kung. Men på de södra öarna måste man slåss för rätten att bli kung, och i en episk strid blir Erec hårdare prövad än någonsin tidigare. I den dramatiska vändningen som uppstår, lär vi oss att förräderi lurar i skuggorna även här, i landet av ädla och stora krigare. Reece som är rustad till strid och omringad på de övre öarna, måste slåss för sitt liv efter sin hämndaktion mot Tirus. I sin desperation finner han sig tillsammans med Stara, och de båda är på sin vakt mot varandra, samtidigt som de är förenade i uppdraget att överleva – ett uppdrag som kulminerar i en episk strid till havs, som hotar hela ön. Kommer Gwen ta sig över havet till säkerhet? Kommer Romulus förstöra Ringen? Kommer Reece och Stara bli tillsammans? Kommer Erec bli kung? Kommer Thor hitta sin mor? Vad kommer det bli av Guwayne? Kommer någon överleva alls? Med sitt sofistikerade världs- och karaktärsbygge, är ETT VÄLDE AV STÅL en episk saga om vänner och älskare, om rivaler och friare, om riddare och drakar, om intriger och politiska ränksmiderier, om åldrande, om brustna hjärtan, om bedrägeri, ambition och svek. Det är en saga om heder och mod, om tro och öde, om magi. Det är en fantasyberättelse som tar oss in i en värld vi sent kommer glömma, och som lockar läsare i alla åldrar och könstillhörigheter.
