Resonance C.S. Vass
She’s an orphan, abused…and deadly.
Years of training have tempered her abilities like goddess-blessed steel.
But what good will it do when she can’t tell friend from foe?
Fiona’s city is in turmoil. Nobles vanish without a trace, and Haygarden’s people can’t agree which shadowy force is to blame.
Each night the assaults grow bolder. That’s why the Duke sends in Fiona’s brother—if the leader of an elite group of assassins can’t solve this problem, then nobody can.
That is, until Rodrick is kidnapped as well.
Can Fiona muster up the strength to save him? The city seems determined to stop her, but she’s never been one to listen to rules. Or fear banging swords with the underworld’s most fearsome villains.
Check it out now!

Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon...
Code of Rainbow: Soaring Flame and the Dragon-transcending Magimal Weiqi Wang
This is the first book of a teen fantasy book series that nurtures the bloom of MAGIC in the soil of SCIENCE - something rarely attempted. The transition from magic to science will be bit by bit, so the early books do read like a "mainstream" magic fantasy.
Soarame has a pair of special eyes. He can see magic elements in this world, which are supposed to be invisible. This enviable gift of his could reveal the truth of the world, but it also puts him in danger.
Many animals in this world possess magic power, so they are called “magimals” - dragons as examples. Soarame fortunately got a baby magimal as his best friend, but they got into troubles together - troubles that were a lot bigger than dragons.
Could they survive?

When Venick is caught wandering the elflands, he knows the penalty is death. Desperate, he lies about his identity in hopes the elves will spare his life.

Fire & Ice
Fire & Ice Patty Jansen
Where magic is dark and gritty, characters troubled and twisted, and victory comes at a heavy price.
Deep under the City of Glass in the frozen southern land, an age-old machine called the Heart of the City radiates a power which locals call icefire. Most citizens are immune to it, but a few, always born with physical disabilities, can bend it to their will. For fifty years, the ruling Eagle Knights, who fly on the back of giant birds, have killed these Imperfects, fearing the return of the old royal family, who used icefire to cut out people's hearts, turning them into ghostly servitors.
The old king's grandson Tandor only sees the good things icefire brought: power and technology now forgotten while the people of the south live in dire poverty. He's had enough of seeing his fellow kin

“Curiouser and curiouser!” cried Alice; “I’ve become one of the undead!”
A horrible plague has spread across Britain, infecting some of its citizens with zombieism. The British, however, have not given themselves over to upset, but have discovered a method for controlling the plague: a serum that halts the infection in the living, and restores self-control (most of the time) to the undead.
On one golden afternoon, gentleman zombie Charles Dodgson tells Alice Liddell and her two sisters a story, the tale of how dear little Alice (who is rather a troublemaker) comes to the mythical homeland of the zombies, Underland, and her adventures there.
Will she escape?
Or will Mr. Dodgson, as the story progresses, consume them all?

So you’re a magician. Now what? Chrysanthemum can choose from lots of safe, secure magical careers, all providing a steady income and an eventual pension.

In fact, you are very likely to die. But it’s better than a regular job, right? Then, if you live, the big question is: when do you quit?

Sibling rivalry takes a new turn as sisters fight for love, identity, and survival in a monster-infested city.
The twins’ bond kept them together through everything the Towers of Refuge could throw at them. But when Ange fakes her own death in a rash attempt to protect Amy, her twin runs away to join a secret club in the abandoned levels of the tower below the floodwaters.
Ange is determined to bring her sister back. But the secrets—and the strangers—they discover below the waterline could sever their bond for good.
This SFF/spec-fic prequel story takes place less than a decade before BLIND THE EYES and blends monsters and magic with near-future post-eco-disaster cityscapes for a fast-paced, genre-bending romantic thriller.

Is There A Dragon In You?
I never should have let Steph drag me to that Psychic Fair. Metaphysical nonsense doesn’t suit me, Seattle doesn't suit me, and I think I might be allergic to patchouli. I’m definitely allergic to car accidents, to giant elk falling from the sky, and most importantly, to the huge, blue dragon that’s attached its obnoxious tail to my navel.
Just try having a smart-ass dragon nattering in your brain twenty-four-seven. Better yet, don’t try it. I recommend skipping the entire, batshit crazy, ordeal. Avoid black cats. Don’t get that Reiki treatment, and definitely don’t wake up alone, surrounded by other dragons who know way more than you do about what the hell is going on.
