A restless wizard casts a spell, stars move ominously, and the story of Pelenor, the lost prince, begins. The old wizard had known for ages that real magic comes to those who first relish the magic of simple life. True wizards develop an extraordinary interest in the ordinary. But the old wizard wondered: what then does it mean to be interested? What power calls us and takes hold of us when we feel an interest? How does one feel more interested in the simplest of things? How does one listen to the nature of life? The wizard is led through dreams to the story of Pelenor, the unsteady, orphan voice in our hearts that cries for awakening, the forgotten prince. Abandoned by his father because he was inconvenient, living on the edge of a decaying kingdom, he is forced to flee when civil war erupts. Replete with magic, swashbuckling, and questions about the purpose of being, the story follows Pelenor's vagabond journey as he seeks for awakening.

Life-changing moments don't always wear name tags. Sailing the vast void of space is a chaotic life fraught with danger and mystery. It's often the unlikely connections with people that shape us in unexpected ways. A pair of famous freelancers face their hidden pains as they uncover the mysteries of a blood-soaked research station overrun with horrible monsters. Cyborg agents dispatched by their AI overlord find a touch of humanity as they infiltrate a party of wealthy elites. A bright-eyed teenager finally gets accepted as an armiger for his hero knight. Everything flips upside down when he lands in a shuttle full of convicted criminals screaming toward a pitched battle with pirates. Two wayward samurai face uncomfortable truths about life and death at a floating island resort owned by amethyst dragons. An unlikely band of misfit mercenaries drunkenly try to figure out what went wrong on their mission to discreetly protect a VIP from a gang of assassins. Through their defining struggles, these lost souls find new purpose in each other. A sci-fi fantasy anthology of nine shorter stories in the vein of Last Wish from Andrzej Sapkowski's The Witcher series, Lost Souls weaves together the heartwarming tale of Phoenix Company finding each other against all odds. As a prequel to the main narrative, it gives more background on Phoenix Company's founding four and their time with the Deadmaws while introducing some new characters entering the series. All the same, you don't have to have read Inglorious Resurrection or In The Storm to enjoy Lost Souls. So check out the compelling and beautifully crafted tale of Lost Souls! Even as your first dive into the series, it stands on its own and won't disappoint. Content Warning: Lost Souls explores some mature subject matter including violence, gore, profanity, body horror and struggles with PTSD and addiction.

Never make a deal with a fae, they say. But sometimes there’s no choice, consequences be damned. As daughters of the Amadis royal family, my twin Brielle and I should have been helping our people rebuild civilization after the War of Armageddon. Instead, our mother does the unthinkable, possibly sparking a new war, and we’re whisked away to another realm to hide us from our enemies. When we return home, we discover our parents are missing, our people have scattered, and every faction hunts the Knight twins. Some are obsessed with claiming our formidable power for themselves. Others simply want us dead. Still, I can’t believe we’re home for less than a day when I end up as Winter Court’s prisoner in Faery. And it only gets worse from there. To protect my sister, I’ve made a deal with a fae that shatters any hopes for my own future. A dark prince ignites something in me that feels all wrong and oh, so right. And then there’s the enchanting princess I ache for . . . yet can never have. Foes become allies, friends become traitors, and one truth emerges with clarity: war is imminent. My only hope to protect everyone I love is to harness the dark power within me—a force that can save worlds or annihilate us all. If I fail to control it, someone else will.

Almost anyone who has read or written Science Fiction or fantasy has been inspired by the work of Michael Moorcock. His literary flair and grand sense of adventure have been evident since his controversial first novel Behold the Man, through the stories and novels featuring his most famous character, Elric of Melniboné, to his fantasy masterpiece, Gloriana, winner of both the Campbell Memorial and World Fantasy, awards for best novel. Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, and Michael Chabon all cite Moorcock as a major influence; as editor of New Worlds magazine, he helped launch the careers of many of his contemporaries, including Harlan Ellison, Philip K. Dick, and J. G. Ballard. Tor Books now proudly presents Moorcock's first independent novel in nine years, a tale both fantastical and autobiographical, a celebration of London and what it meant to be young there in the years after World War II. The Whispering Swarm is the first in a trilogy that will follow a young man named Michael as he simultaneously discovers himself and a secret realm hidden deep in the heart of London.
