Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thrilling YA retelling of Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai features a girl tasked with saving the world from eternal darkness. Perfect for fans of Six of Crows and Marie Lu. Seventeen-year-old Kira Fujikawa has never had it easy. She’s bullied by the popular girls in school. Her parents ignore her. And she’s also plagued with a secret: She can see yokai, the ghosts and demons that haunt the streets of Kyoto. But things accelerate from bad to worse when she learns that Shuten-doji, the demon king, will rise at the next blood moon to hunt down an ancient relic and bring the world to a catastrophic end. Not exactly skilled at fighting anything, much less the dead, Kira enlists the aid of seven powerful death gods to help her slay Shuten-doji. They include Shiro, a kitsune with boy-band looks who is more flirtatious than helpful, and O-bei, a regal demon courtier with reasons of her own for getting involved. As the confrontation with Shuten-doji draws nearer, the fate of Japan hangs in the balance. Can Kira save humankind? Or will the demon king succeed in bringing eternal darkness upon the world?

Rogue assassins Eva Marteinn and Ari Westergaard have escaped the restrictive world of the Commonwealth, but the battle is far from over. Eva is the formidable weapon the Commonwealth wants, and they’ll stop at nothing to get her back. Plus Eva is keeping a devastating secret from Ari: the victory against the Commonwealth the two have been fighting for is doomed to break their hearts. For years, Ari has seen Eva as his temptation and his secret, his virtue and his sin. Now that they’re finally free, he wants what he’s been craving—to start a new life with her. Only one thing stands in his way: her ability to control the new powers that have grown even stronger as she nears the rebel stronghold. When Ari and Eva join the rebellion, Ari must find a place in a new society that sees him as nothing more than a Commonwealth murderer. Meanwhile Eva faces an impossible decision. She can be the face of a revolution and cast aside the boy she loves, or she can abandon everything she’s fought for to stand by his side. Can Eva find a way to fight for freedom without sacrificing her heart?
