Arcadeland is full of magical secrets as well as fun and games in the second book in the Candy Shop War series, from the #1 "New York Times "bestselling author of the Beyonders and Fablehaven series. Nate and his friends already know Mrs. White, the owner of the Sweet Tooth Ice Cream & Candy Shoppe, where the treats are magical in addition to delicious. And now they're introduced to Mrs. White's brother, Mr. White, who owns a local amusement center called Arcadeland. At Arcadeland, kids can play games and earn thousands of tickets that are redeemable for one of four kinds of stamps: jets, tanks, subs, and racecars. Could it be true that these stamps allow kids to fly through the air? Or breathe underwater? Or run faster than a car? But Mr. White is hiding a secret: when all four stamp clubs are filled, he will be able to retrieve perhaps the most powerful talisman ever. For Nate and his friends, it will take more than candy to fight and win this war

He hopes to marry his long-suffering fianc e Adaire, but his hopes are dashed when King Bozin sends him on one final journey to the far-flung icy island city of Miotes. This time, however, the Sea is jealous of Cloran, and will never give him up to Adiare freely. Alas, Cloran has no choice, and accepts the mission begrudgingly. "One final journey," he tells himself. No matter what happens, it will be his last. Join Cloran, First Mate Len, Greaves, Darrell, Turner, Mallory, Richards and Jenkins as they navigate Wavegrazer through icy channels, floating castles, magical islands inhabited with faerie women and deadly reefs patrolled by the evil man-killing crab, Krackaman.

In the not too distant future, Charles Dalton achieves his life's ambition and establishes a nirvana called Paragon in the heart of Africa. By his side is his son Abe who is a career military pilot and a leader in his own right. Paragon owns and has the only access to a new miracle element - A28 - which has the ability to provide carbonless fuel and as some say, longer life. Paragon is seeking to establish world recognition as a nation despite its relatively small size. And with A28 and its elite military force, it may well have that capability. However, all countries covet the mysterious and elusive A28 and envy Charles his power and wealth. Soon he is beset with powerful enemies, determined to bring him and his country down while making off with the A28. Should that happen, the world would be changed irrevocably and be dominated by a tyrannical force determined to have control of all countries - which could conceivably be done with A28. As Charles watches his beloved country fall under unprovoked attack, he must count on the power of true allegiances and the strength of his people to overcome diversity. Will Charles lose all that he has built? More importantly, will A28 fall into enemy hands?

Based on the concept album by Black Dime CabaretFrom the author: "Nefarious Schemes is not much in terms of fine literature. It's a head-hopping, fluid-omniscient viewpoint orgy of characters, ideas and events that's my attempt at cramming as much information as possible into the most dense cake you've ever eaten. What the book does is it reveals and expands on our album in every way imaginable, to the extent you're probably justified in calling it gratuitous and over-the-top. That's the point. It's excessive, detailed, dizzying, and it's a world that I thoroughly enjoyed writing in."In 19th century France, they're all bad.A devastating plague grips France 1893, while a tumultuous election campaign dominates the headlines. An impressionable young woman arrives in the small town of Bellvoir with nothing but a letter of inheritance, handed to her by a mysterious clown.In the gutter, rats feast on the sick, and the sick feast on promises of salvation from the enigmatic Raven Man. The famous Black Dime Cabaret, a haven for witches, opens it maws to the folk of the town who are oblivious to the secrets it contains.And presiding over all, the most beautiful and feared woman in all of France: Lady Midnight.
"I am the City."Nicolas Fontaine is a Hitchcock-obsessed, down-on-his-luck cartoonist whose propensity for addiction's dug him a pathetic lifestyle of late-night television movies and sexual rendezvous with the city's slimiest. He's more than willing to answer when the fat man comes calling, with an offer: join a secret drug trial and make enough money to escape Paris forever. Only, the magic pill-jazz-ain't nothing he's ever done before; it sends him to a strange parallel universe unlike Paris 1959, yet strikingly similar, a universe in which there lives a bizarre creature of alien making. For the fat man, the equation is simple: you kill the creature, you're free. But the creature senses the fat man's deception, promising something even greater: to be, at last, seen. So Nicolas finds himself in a bidding war for his soul, where the winner takes all, and if the fat man doesn't get what he wants, he'll erase all evidence that you were ever there at all.That is if, of course, the City doesn't get you first.Reflections of Fontaine is a slow yet twisted dive into the mind of a film-obsessed city loner, the newest novel from Brandon Young (author of "Nefarious Schemes to Murder Lady Midnight"). It's magical realism against the backdrop of a brutal winter in Paris -- sure to be one of the strangest books you read this year.
