  Destiny is a double-edged blade. 
   
   
   
  The Mountain of Ice-Cloak is beset by the ürsi scourge. Every spring they raid flocks and scour the valleys. Migration and trade have slowed to a trickle. Queen Jade was a warrior in her youth, but now a disease gnaws at her bones. As she weakens, the folk favor her eldest daughter to lead them. But prince Firehelm believes Ice-Cloak needs a warrior, not a healer. He wishes to strike back against the ürsi, discover their nest, and gain the folk's favor. 
   
   
   
  When Queen Jade gives Firehelm permission to raise a personal guard, a young dwarf named Korin joins the cause. Beset by uncontrollable tremors that impair his practice of other trades, Korin hopes a warrior's calling may give him purpose. Caught up in friendship, leadership, and fell deeds, Korin follows the prince north to the brink of ancient legend—and perhaps their folk's destiny.

  A female cop seeks refuge on another planet after being infected by an alien virus in this science fiction fantasy novel from a New York Times bestseller. 
   
  Shan Frankland forever abandoned the world she knew to come to the rescue of a lost colony on a distant and dangerous planet—a hostile world coveted by two alien races and fiercely protected by a third. But in the course of her mission, she overstepped a boundary and stumbled into forbidden lands. And she can never go back—to being neutral, to being safe. To being human. 
   
  War is coming again to Cavanagh’s Star — and this time, the instigators will be the troublesome gethes from the faraway planet Earth. Former Environmental Enforcement Officer Shan Frankland has already crossed a line, and now she is a prize to be captured . . . or a threat to be eliminated. But saving a coveted world and its fragile native population may require of her one unthinkable sacrifice: the destruction of her own ruthless, invading species.

  I was five when the dragons first appeared . . . and the lights went out for good. 
   
   
   
  Now, eighteen years after the cataclysmic appearance of the four great dragons over Mount Fuji, humanity shares a shattered Earth with the Fey—fairies, elves, and other supernatural creatures. Trust is short, magic is common, and each day is a struggle for survival in the Awakened World of 2053. 
   
   
   
  I'm Angie Ritter, a former army mage who can't cast spells anymore. I have some issues. I'm working on them. 
   
   
   
  Unfortunately, the army wasn't as accommodating as I would have hoped and gave me the boot. Now, I survive day by day in Sanwa City, a walled settlement in southern California, doing menial labor and pretty much hiding from the world. Without my magic, I can't help myself, let alone anyone else, but when my old army buddy Erin—an elite werewolf shock trooper—comes to me for help, I can't say no. Now, I just need to pull myself together—and fast. Because someone's hunting werewolves, and Erin is their new prey. 
   
   
   
  And if I get in their way, they're going to carve me up too. 
   
   
   
  Thing is, I'm done with hiding.

  This program is read by the author. "Man in the Dark is an undoubted pleasure to read. Auster really does possess the wand of the enchanter." —Michael Dirda, The New York Review of BooksFrom Paul Auster, a "literary original" (Wall Street Journal) comes a novel that forces us to confront the blackness of night even as it celebrates the existence of ordinary joys in a world capable of the most grotesque violence.Seventy-two-year-old August Brill is recovering from a car accident at his daughter's house in Vermont. When sleep refuses to come, he lies in bed and tells himself stories, struggling to push back thoughts about things he would prefer to forget: his wife's recent death and the horrific murder of his granddaughter's boyfriend, Titus. The retired book critic imagines a parallel world in which America is not at war with Iraq but with itself. In this other America the twin towers did not fall and the 2000 election results led to secession, as state after state pulled away from the union and a bloody civil war ensued.As the night progresses, Brill's story grows increasingly intense, and what he is desperately trying to avoid insists on being told.A Washington Post Best Book of the Year
