Nikolai Lantsov has always had a gift for the impossible. No one knows what he endured in his country’s bloody civil war—and he intends to keep it that way. Now, as enemies gather at his weakened borders, the young king must find a way to refill Ravka’s coffers, forge new alliances, and stop a rising threat to the once-great Grisha Army.
Yet, with every day a dark magic within him grows stronger, threatening to destroy all he has built. With the help of a young monk and a legendary Grisha Squaller, Nikolai will journey to the places in Ravka where the deepest magic survives to vanquish the terrible legacy inside him. He will risk everything to save his country and himself. But some secrets aren’t meant to stay buried—and some wounds aren’t meant to heal.

In the second book of the Carve the Mark duology, globally bestselling Divergent author Veronica Roth reveals how Cyra and Akos fulfill their fates. The Fates Divide is a richly imagined tale of hope and resilience told in four stunning perspectives.
The lives of Cyra Noavek and Akos Kereseth are ruled by their fates, spoken by the oracles at their births. The fates, once determined, are inescapable.
Akos is in love with Cyra, in spite of his fate: He will die in service to Cyra’s family. And when Cyra’s father, Lazmet Noavek—a soulless tyrant, thought to be dead—reclaims the Shotet throne, Akos believes his end is closer than ever.
As Lazmet ignites a barbaric war, Cyra and Akos are desperate to stop him at any cost. For Cyra, that could mean taking the life of the man who may—or may not—be her father. For Akos, it could mean giving his own. In a stunning twist, the two will discover how fate defines their lives in ways most unexpected.

RENA BARRONTHE LAST WITCH DOCTORHarperCollins (Fall 2019)**Sold at auction in a major deal**UK/ANZ: Harper UK
Born to a family of powerful witchdoctors, sixteen-year-old Arrah fails at rituals, fails at bone magic, and fails to call upon the ancestors. Much to the disappointment of her cruel mother, she can’t even cast the simplest curse. Arrah can only perform magic the way a charlatan must: by trading years of her life without knowing how many each ritual will take.
When she trades years to see the future, she discovers that her mother is stealing children to conjure a better daughter, one who can wake the Demon King—whose insatiable thirst for souls already destroyed one realm. If he rises again, he’ll destroy everything in his path.
Before she can warn anyone, Arrah’s mother binds her in a curse of silence. To stop her mother and her demon-born sister, whose power rivals that of the immortal orishas, Arrah must give more and more of her life in exchange for magic. Each ritual performed brings her closer to death, but Arrah will do anything to stop her sister from releasing the Demon King. Even if it kills her.

APRIL GENEVIEVE TUCHOLKEBONELESS MERCIESFSG (October 2018)**Sold in a six-house auction in a huge-six-figure deal**UK/ANZ: Simon & Schuster UK
In this gender-flipped retelling of the classic Norse poem Beowulf, the seventeen-year-old Frey yearns to live a life worthy of saga, and song. But Frey is a Mercy, a member of an ancient female sect taught to bring death to the old and the sick, and be quick, quiet, and merciful. Mercies are death-traders, doomed to roam Vorseland killing the old or the sick. Their methods are quick, quiet, and merciful.
Frey and her band of Mercies—Ovie, Runa, and Juniper—have grown weary of the death trade. They dream of doing something bigger, something braver, something so heroic it will change the fate of Vorse women everywhere. So when Frey hears of a giant slaughtering the people in a northern village, she decides that killing this beast is the Mercies’ chance at fame and fortune—even if it means they must first align with the reclusive Sea Witches, and face the ruthless Cut-Queen of the Red Willow Marsh.

“Sophisticated plotting is the hallmark of this debut, which deftly navigates complex, treasonous plots and political intrigue. Brienna herself, unsure but brave and passionate, is an admirable narrator, and her struggles to belong and understand enhance this stunning
literary adventure.” –BOOKLIST, STARRED REVIEW
“The Queen’s Rising… was so full of passion and rich in history, with all of the secrets, lies, alter egos and revelations throughout… and of course what is a good YA book without a small bit of swoony romance?” –NICOLE DUMAS, book blogger
“This is a story which truly celebrates the power of the female spirit. Ross’s wonderful and seamless writing drew me into Brienna’s world and kept hold of me until I was done in one sitting. Part fantasy, part historical fiction, The Queen’s Rising is perfect for YA and adult fans—reminiscent of fantasy stories from childhood—and highlights that the fight for love and honor belong to the truly brave, and Brienna, including the colorful cast
of characters, exalt this virtue in multitudes.” – ILENA ALVAREZ, book blogger

Companion novella to the New York Times bestselling WITCHLANDS Series!
Before Safi and Iseult battled a Bloodwitch...Before Merik returned from the dead…
Ryber Fortiza was a Sightwitch Sister at a secluded convent, waiting to be called by her goddess into the depths of the mountain. There she would receive the gift of foretelling. But before that time comes, her sisters who already possess the Sight are all summoned into the mountain, never to return, and Ryber is left behind. Now, it is up to her to save her Sisters, though she does not have the Sight—and though she does not know what might await her on the journey.
On her quest underground, she encounters a young captain named Kullen Ikray, who has no memory of who he is or how he got there. Together, the two travel ever deeper in search of answers. The road is filled with horrors, and what they find at the end of that road will alter the fate of the Witchlands forever.
“Dynamic story telling and a fully
imagined magical world distinguish
Dennard’s first book in the
Witchlands series… [The characters’]
adventures are dashed with a hint
of romance and deeply imbued with
the concept of loyalty.”
- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, STARRED REVIEW (Praise for TRUTHWITCH)

friendships, treachery, magic, piracy

THE NIGHTINGALEHarlequin Teen (Fall 2018)UK/ANZ: Rights available via New Leaf Literary
At seventeen, June Hardie is everything a young woman in 1951 shouldn’t be—independent, rebellious, a dreamer. June longs to travel, to attend college, and to write the dark science fiction stories that consume her waking hours. But her parents only care about making June a better young woman. Her mother grooms her to be a perfect little homemaker, while her father pushes her to marry his business partner’s domineering son. When June resists, her whole world is shattered—suburbia isn’t the only prison for different women… June’s parents commit her to Burrow Place Asylum, a.k.a. the Institution. With its sickening conditions, terrifying staff, and brutal “medical treatments,” the Institution preys on June’s darkest secrets and deepest fears. And she’s not alone. The Institute terrorizes June’s fragile roommate Eleanor and the other women locked away within its crumbling walls. Those who dare speak up disappear…or worse. Trapped between a gruesome reality and increasingly sinister hallucinations, June isn’t sure where her nightmares end and real life begins. But she does know one thing: in order to survive, she must destroy the Institution, before it finally claims them all.

“NIGHTINGALE is a beautifully constructed novel featuring out-of-this-world suspense, a classic Stephen King vibe and an edge all its own. If that wasn’t enough, its powerful portrayal of gender roles and fem-inism makes it all too timely and important. Amy Lukavics has more than earned her place alongside today’s greatest horror writers and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.”- COURTNEY SUMMERS

But a vicious anonymous blog pops up online, exposing and humiliating Izzy. All she wants is to find out who started the blog, without letting it jeopardize the scholarship she’s after. Oh and she has to deal with an unrequited crush. But when her private nude photo is leaked, she becomes fodder for national news. Izzy has to face a world that wants to silence her, and do it without losing her sense of humor.

and stand up and cheer. It’s smart, funny, and timely. I adored it.

-BOOKLIST
Ruby’s world has changed more than she ever could have imagined. She’s in love with the powerful Frost King. She’s the heir to the Fire Throne. And she may be a Nightblood—the spawn of a vengeful deity hell-bent on releasing an army of shadowy wraiths from their prison. Once freed, these beasts will roam the earth, devouring the spirits of every last person until he or she is nothing but an empty husk. With time running out, she must bring Frostbloods and Firebloods together to make a stand against an immortal foe more deadly than any she’s faced. And the price of peace may be her very life. In this heart-pounding finale of Elly Blake’s gorgeously written and action-packed Frostblood Saga, the fate of Frostbloods, Firebloods, and all of humanity is at stake.
“Ruby’s story shimmers and expands as she grapples with forces pushing her to
obey. A new romantic interest sizzles and evil forces conspire, making for a thrilling
romp through an engrossing world. A sucker punch of escalating evil, sizzling
romance, and a spitfire coming into her own.”

TRUE QUEEN
Conclusion to the IMPOSTOR QUEEN series
Spanish (World): V&RTurkish: Beyaz Balina
* at auction/ ** pre-empt
Now that Ansa knows she is the destined queen of Kupari, she is desperate to find a permanent home for her people, the Kriegere, in the Kupari lands. As the small band of warriors crosses into the foreign territory, Ansa loses her fragile grip on her newly-acquired—and violent—fire and ice magic and puts everyone, including her love Thyra, in danger.
Inside the walls of Kupari, Elli maintains the facade that she is the magical queen, with her secret—that she has no magic at all—on the brink of exposure every day. But as she tries to prepare the citizens to protect themselves from another invasion, unrest spreads as wielders like her beloved Oskar begin to lose control of their powers.
As Kupari grows increasingly unstable, with the land literally crumbling beneath their feet, and a common enemy once again threatening everything, these two young women on a collision course with destiny must find a way to save the realm and their people from total destruction.
In this epic conclusion to the IMPOSTOR QUEEN series, Sarah Fine’s sweeping tale of two fierce leaders imbued with unimaginable power and called to unthinkable sacrifice finally answers the question: who has the strength to be the True Queen?
“A twisting and unpredictable plot ... Fiery, icy, sad, thrilling.”
-KIRKUS, STARRED REVIEW
“In this satisfying conclusion to the Impostor Queen trilogy,
two strong female characters rise to their potential and duties.
As in the previous two volumes, the action is constant, the
characters are well drawn and the story is unique”

MIRAGE
In a star system dominated by the brutal Vathek empire, eighteen-year-old Amani is a dreamer. She dreams of what life was like before the occupation; she dreams of writing poetry like the old-world poems she adores; she dreams of receiving a sign from Dihya that one day, she, too, will have adventure, and travel beyond her isolated moon.
But when adventure comes for Amani, it is not what she expects: she is kidnapped by the regime and taken in secret to the royal palace, where she discovers that she is nearly identical to the cruel half-Vathek Princess Maram. The princess is so hated by her conquered people that she requires a body double, someone to appear in public as Maram, ready to die in her place.
As Amani is forced into her new role, she can’t help but enjoy the palace’s beauty—and her time with the princess’ fiancé, Idris. But the glitter of the royal court belies a world of violence and fear. If Amani ever wishes to see her family again, she must play the princess to perfection...because one wrong move could lead to her death.

“Readers craving a captivating adventure will find that and more in
Lucier’s brilliant fantasy. […] […] Lucier’s novel gifts readers a lush
fantasy rife with adventure, slow- burning romance, mysteries,
intrigue, and action. The main characters are vividly drawn and pop
off the page, while even the secondary characters are masterfully and
believably rendered. The world-building is smart and staggering, and
the plot excels at being fast-paced without sacrificing the depth of
the characters or story. Family, duty, love, secrets, lies, betrayal, and
exposed truths are all subjects explored by Lucier. Isle of Blood and
Stone is the perfect book for any reader who loves the open seas, a
good secret, a haunting mystery, and a dangerous yet breathtaking
adventure. — Enishia Davenpor”
- BOOKLIST STARRED REVIEW Praise for A DEATH-STRUCK YEAR
“Lucier’s vividly accurate description of the 1918 pandemic will make readers
tremble over the teen’s fate, wondering whether she will be next on the list of
victims… In the same vein as Laurie Halse Anderson’s FEVER 1793, Lucier’s debut
deserves a place in all high school collections”

~Excerpt~
A folded piece of paper fell out of the book and fluttered
softly to the floor. I almost didn’t see it, but it caught some
light from the window halfway down.
It landed amid the glass.
It was thin, folded neatly, almost shimmering in the orange
light from the window and the reflective shards around it.
I leaned to pick it up, and noticed the faded inverse of an
address on the outer sheet:
S E KOPEK
17 C H ST
E , DA
As I unfolded the page further, it became two pages,
fighting back, the creases firm as if they hadn’t been
touched in years, frayed on the edges. They had been
ripped out of something.
The page was covered in black pen that had dulled with
age. The handwriting was a familiar cursive, but sloppy, as
if written in a hurry. I slumped into the folding chair in front
of the desk, and read.
I read every word on the page, then read them again,
more slowly. By the third time through, I could hear my
grandfather speaking behind me.
“We’re together,” he tells me. “And we always have been.”
I caught my breath, and the gravity of what I held in my
hands found me.
My grandfather had written again.

There are no more cheerleaders in Milbrook, but that doesn’t mean anyone else is safe.

In a small town, every person gets one wish on their eighteenth birthday. Eldon Wilkes is weeks away from his, but lately he’s been noticing how many people regret their wishes. He determines to come up with the perfect wish, a wish that can’t go wrong. He and his two best friends set off to find the perfect wish, but what if it doesn’t exist?
For fans of Nicola Yoon and Jennifer Niven
“In this thoughtful, contemporary-set fantasy, teenagers in an isolated Nevada desert town have the opportunity-or the
responsibility-to make one wish on their eighteenth birth-days and watch it come true. […]. Although Eldon, in his growing self-awareness, draws plenty of life lessons from his experiences, the book avoids a heavy-handed message
and is an engrossing read, fantastical and believable at the same time.”

SARAH DESSEN meets THE SERPENT KING
“Farrah Penn manages to capture the joyous highs of love to the blackest lows of despair with her writing, in a way that made Kira and her life feel incredibly real and heartfelt.” –JAMES PATTERSON, #1 New York Times bestselling author
“A powerful, heartfelt debut about the lengths we’ll go for those we love, and the hurdles along the way. In pages brimming with honesty, Penn shines an empathetic light on addiction, ultimately demonstrating that forgiveness—not only its redemptive qualities, but its messy ones too—is well worth the
struggle.” –DAVID ARNOLD, New York Times bestselling author of KIDS OF APPETITE and MOSQUITOLAND
“Twelve Steps to Normal is a searing, gut-punch of a story—one that is, unfortunately, all too common. It takes us through all the painful steps of a relationship with someone suffering from addiction, but it does so in a voice that’s funny and personal enough to make us want to keep turning the page, even when we’re afraid of what we might find there.” –JOSH SUNDQUIST, bestselling author of WE SHOULD HANG OUT SOMETIME and LOVE AND FIRST SIGHT
“Farrah Penn’s debut is a heartfelt story about the aftermath of addiction. Equal parts swoony and poignant, I couldn’t help but cheer for her main char-acter Kira as she tries to put her life back together in the wake of loss.” – JULIE BUXBAUM
“Funny, honest, and smart, TWELVE STEPS TO NORMAL is filled with nuanced characters who you can’t help caring about.”– MELINA MARCHETTA
“A heartfelt, nuanced story about learning to forgive and tak-ing the best of the past, hoping for the best of the future. Kira’s struggle to understand and move on from her father’s flaws to
her own is moving and real.” – HUNTLEY FITZPATRICK

THE BONE GARDEN
Agent: Suzie TownsendEditor: Brian Geffen
Translation: New Leaf
Irréelle fears she’s not quite real. Made of dust and bone and imagination, she is tethered to life by the finest thread. And she is tethered to Miss Vesper, her creator, as well. Only, the thread is unraveling. For all her efforts to please Miss Vesper, she never does. She is forgetful as she gathers bone dust. She is slow returning from the underside of the graveyard. Worst of all, she is unmindful of her crooked bones. As such, when Irréelle smashes a spider-like hand just brought to life, Miss Vesper threatens to imagine her away once and for all. Before she can, Irréelle flees to the underside of the graveyard. As she searches the gloomy tunnels for another way to the surface, she encounters (and rescues) a strange boy trapped in a passageway that collapsed long ago. With something scuttling after them in the dark, they climb their way from an empty tomb to the above side of the graveyard and find something most unexpected: Miss Vesper’s headstone. To overcome her deepest held fear, Irréelle seeks the truth of Miss Vesper’s return from the dead and the tether that binds them, even if it means Irréelle will return to dust and be no more.

THE CAVENDISH HOME FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.
Twelve-year-old Finn O’Dálaigh-Sé spends her days playing make-believe in the forest, weaving her own tall tales to tell her friends, and waiting for her father to return from the war. Most of all, she craves adventure. When her grandmother suddenly passes away, Finn is shipped off to Starlight Hollow to live with her long-lost mother, Aoife, and half sister Posy-Kate. When she arrives, she’s alarmed to find the walls in Posy-Kate’s room are papered with swan feathers and decorated with swan heads, and Aoife’s shoes appear to be made out of swan bills. Even stranger is Starlight Hollow, a town encircled by thorn trees, where children go missing at an alarmingly high rate, and there are more swans than residents. In fact, what’s happening reminds her a lot of one of her grandmother’s famous Irish folktales, The Children of Lir, where a scorned mother turns all of her children into swans. As the disappearances continue, Finn realizes that her own mother is in the center of it all, and if she doesn’t act quickly, Finn could be the next to disappear...and end up as Aoife’s next pair of swan shoes...

Neil Gaiman meets HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON
Eleven-year-old Kyro is a Star Shepherd like his father, spending his nights watching the sky for falling stars – stars that keep evil underground and their lands safe. When a star falls, they have until dawn to transfer the soul of the star into a new body and catapult it back into the night sky. Otherwise, the star is lost forever and evil is one step closer to taking over the world.
When hundreds of stars fall at once, Kyro’s father journeys to the Star Shepherd Council for help and doesn’t return. With more stars falling and not enough Star Shepherds left to get them back into the sky, Kyro must find the Star Shepherd council, and his father, before evil returns to the land.

CHRISTINE DAYTHE SUMMER OF SPLIT FEATHER FEVERHarperChildren’s (Winter 2020)**Sold in a pre-empt**UK/ANZ: Rights available via HarperCollins
For fans of THE THING ABOUT THE JELLYFISH and INSIDE OUT AND BACK AGAIN
Edie knew about the adoption. That part wasn’t a surprise.When she found the box in the attic, the documents in manila folders didn’t shock her. But the photographs did. And so did the letters with broken seals. Because these portraits and stories revealed a possibility she never would’ve considered: that her mother knew their relatives. The real ones. The Native Americans.
For years, Edie had assumed her mother was orphaned as a baby. Why else would she have been adopted as an infant? But twith this new evidence, she realizes she has a lot to learn. About her grandmother’s life, her mother’s adoption, and her own identity. Thus begins a summer of confusion and grief, questions and answers, and the healing powers of love and family.

REBECCA BEHRENSIN CASE OF EMERGENCY
HATCHET meets THE BABYSITTERS CLUBTwelve-year-old Hannah Steele has never had any complaints about living on an island off the coast of Seattle, it’s only a short ferry ride (or a circuitous drive via the one bay bridge) to downtown.So babysitting after school seems like no big deal. Zoe (9) and Oscar (6) are basically her next door neighbors, their mom is just running a few errands downtown, and Hannah recently took a babysitting class. The three of them will do homework, heat up dinner, and hang out for a few hours. Easy money.Then the shaking begins. Pottery topples off the mantel. Furniture—including the coffee table that Zoe and Oscar have their feet on—lurches across the floor. Glass shatters. It feels like the house is cresting on ocean waves. The earthquake lasts four minutes. It knocks out the power. The stairs collapse under a fallen light fixture. Phone lines are down, cell service is nonexistent. Even worse, the ferry and the bridge aren’t running. Which means, they’re stranded and alone. With Hannah in charge.Which is problematic because Hannah isn’t the best babysitter in the best circumstances, and these are definitely not the best circumstances.
“Soaring with the thrill of possibility, The Last Grand Adventure delivers an intimate tale of
navigating rough pockets in life’s airspace, chasing dreams, and discovering that the
greatest journeys are filled with mystery, risk, setbacks, laughter, and a whole lot of heart. This unforgettable road-trip adventure sent my spirit flying sky-high! Bea and Pidge are
my new favorite duo.”-JESSICA LAWSON
“Hooray for The Last Grand Adventure, an irresistible blend of historical fact and adven-
ture-filled fiction! ”-NIKKI LOFTIN, author of WISH GIRL

MARCYKATE CONNOLLY
LEAD TITLE WITH MAJOR MARKETING AND PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN!
“[Connolly’s] use of language and suspense is captivating, resulting in a gripping tale that is wholly original. Dark, yet dazzling, this first installment in a planned duology is sure to be popular. A perfect choice for fans of Kelly Barnhill’s The Girl Who Drank the
Moon (2016).” –BOOKLIST STARRED REVIEW
“A fantastical adventure fortified by its flawed heroine. ”- KIRKUS
Connolly’s descriptions of magic, especially of Emmeline’s shadow-play, are vivid and invigorating. The looming threat of an off-stage magic-eating villain leaves the novel somewhat open-ended, with the potential for a sequel. VERDICT Readers looking for a supernatural twist on toxic friendships will appreciate this complex and compelling
read.”-SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
“A beautifully written, suspenseful novel about what makes us human.”- BETH VANCURINE, Anderson’s Bookshop
“Gripping.” -JUDITH LAFITTE, Octavia Books
