It's 2055. Hunting vampires is the dangerous new sport of jaded trillionaires. Renee Cadieux-Smith just wants to taste the blood of Padrille, rich with a mix of male and female hormones. An old frenemy falls victim to the hunters, and Renee is dragged into battle. When her special abilities fail to help an ancient vampire find his long-lost love, his obsession puts Renee's family at grave risk. Renee must use her imperfect mastery of time and space (along with a few of Padrille's dangerous, illegal gadgets) to rescue her pregnant niece Joelle from a deranged abductor. Visitors from the previous century are an unwelcome complication, but when the resources Renee would normally count on for backup are curiously reluctant to come to her aid, she needs all the help she can get. Even her cousin Gil, who became a vampire hunter in another timeline—and Grandpa Larson, founder of the Cadieux-Smith family, the man Renee killed when she was nineteen years old.

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Two starcrossed magicians engage in a deadly game of cunning in the spellbinding novel that captured the world's imagination. • "Part love story, part fable ... defies both genres and expectations." —The Boston Globe The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night. But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway: a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors. Unbeknownst to them both, this is a game in which only one can be left standing. Despite the high stakes, Celia and Marco soon tumble headfirst into love, setting off a domino effect of dangerous consequences, and leaving the lives of everyone, from the performers to the patrons, hanging in the balance.

What would the Son-of-Man get up to in present-day Rome? Would he wander the Galleria Borghese, loiter outside nightclubs, ride trams, tip accordionists? How would Keats feel about the neon Dior sign that flashes away above the Spanish Steps? Are there ways to avoid Vespas on the sidewalks? Rules for carving a Pietà? And exactly which painter is responsible for the ugliest Jesus in the history of Western Art? A tour of Rome like no other, the poems of Circus Maximus ask these questions and more. Join David Starkey as he shines a torch on the sights, sounds, mysteries and metaphors of the Eternal City. David Starkey is the former Poet Laureate of Santa Barbara, a senior Fulbright scholar, and a six-time nominee for the Pushcart Prize. His latest volume of poetry is A Few Things You Should Know About the Weasel (Biblioasis, 2010).

There are; however; some facts in explanation of the appearance of this volume at this time which require to be set down. And a number of circumstances in relation to the material here collected may be told; I think; to general interest. With these matters I am probably as familiar as anyone; and so have the great privilege of undertaking to record them. The ten highly humorous and altogether charming essays which form the first part of this volume have led a rather queer life so far—though I think their existence will be a very happy one from now on. First; they were not "essays" at the time of their birth. They came into the world as "articles." So they were spoken of by the young journalist who at various times and with very little to do about the matter wrote them in the course of a bewildering variety of other activities. Or; to be still more frank; he was perhaps more apt to refer to them; when he did refer to them at all; as "Sunday stories;" done as a part of his job with the New York Times Sunday Magazine. What they were called; however; is neither here nor there. The thing is that they are here. —from this book The Circus, and Other Essays and Fugitive Pieces by Joyce Kilmer: Delve into a collection of enchanting essays and fugitive pieces in "The Circus."
