Seven years after the events of The Shadow Dragons, John, Jack and Charles are finally able to return to their beloved Archipedlago of Dreams. But even as their return is celebrated by old friends, new concerns shadow the reunion, namely the threat of Echthroi, the primordial Shadow, but, perhaps even worse, the apparent splintering of Time itself. Now, the Caretakers must fight against their most fearsome enemy ever and attempt to restore Time. They must journey through a forgotten door from the destroyed Keep of Time in order to seek out the Dragon's Apprentice. If they fail, it will mean the end of both of the worlds. But success will carry its own price - a price that may be too high even for the Caretakers to bear.

Amber Davis will do anything for her young son, even something as crazy as beg a dragon for sanctuary from her abusive husband. All she needs to do is step foot on Elysia South soil and no one, not even the US government can touch her. Which is great because her husband is the son of a senator, and he has promised to see her dead and her parents ruined before he allows her to run off with their son. Dragon shifter Raphek is patrolling near the energy shield at the edge of his kingdom when he witnesses a Terran woman and her child being hunted by several Terran men. He has no idea that saving them will set off perhaps the largest political bomb between his kingdom and the US that may trigger a war unless King Dagon gives over mother and child to the very man that has sworn to kill her. Love should be the last thing on their minds, but neither one can deny the burning attraction that grows daily between them, not to mention the fierce protective instincts that all Draknos have for children that awakens within Raphek and won’t be ignored. Can Amber and Raphek find a solution to their impossible dilemma or will Amber have to submit to the demands of her husband’s powerful family for the sake of peace? Contains mature content, language, and hot dragon shifters. This is a complete story with a HEA.

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller! “Deonn writes…stories that humanize Black protagonists, like Bree, giving them agency and a place to both fail and, ultimately, to ascend.” —Booklist (starred review) The “worthy successor to an explosive debut” (Kirkus Reviews)—the New York Times bestselling and award-winning Legendborn—perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and Margaret Rogerson! The shadows have risen, and the line is law. All Bree wanted was to uncover the truth behind her mother’s death. So she infiltrated the Legendborn Order, a secret society descended from King Arthur’s knights—only to discover her own ancestral power. Now, Bree has become someone new: A Medium. A Bloodcrafter. A Scion. But the ancient war between demons and the Order is rising to a deadly peak. And Nick, the Legendborn boy Bree fell in love with, has been kidnapped. Bree wants to fight, but the Regents who rule the Order won’t let her. To them, she is an unknown girl with unheard-of power, and as the living anchor for the spell that preserves the Legendborn cycle, she must be protected. When the Regents reveal they will do whatever it takes to hide the war, Bree and her friends must go on the run to rescue Nick themselves. But enemies are everywhere, Bree’s powers are unpredictable and dangerous, and she can’t escape her growing attraction to Selwyn, the mage sworn to protect Nick until death. If Bree has any hope of saving herself and the people she loves, she must learn to control her powers from the ancestors who wielded them first—without losing herself in the process.
