Gia Kearns would rather fight with boys than kiss them. That is, until Arik, a leather clad hottie in the Boston Athenaeum, suddenly disappears. While examining the book of world libraries he abandoned, Gia unwittingly speaks the key that sucks her and her friends into a photograph and transports them into a Paris library, where Arik and his Sentinels-magical knights charged with protecting humans from the creatures traveling across the gateway books-rescue them from a demonic hound. Jumping into some of the world's most beautiful libraries would be a dream come true for Gia, if she weren't busy resisting her heart or dodging an exiled wizard seeking revenge on both the Mystik and human worlds. Add a French flirt obsessed with Arik and a fling with a young wizard, and Gia must choose between her heart and her head, between Arik's world and her own, before both are destroyed. The Library Jumpers series is best enjoyed in order. Reading Order: Book #1 Thief of Lies Book #2 Guardian of Secrets Book #3 Assassin of Truths

Between 1780s Italy and 1990s San Francisco, two families vie for the truth: Are human beings meant to die, or are we meant to live forever? The Thief of Lies, born to an ancient patrilineal line of mages searching for means to immortality, sucks out the energy released when people let go of lies. But, after almost 200 years of existence enjoying the pleasures of rejuvenation, the Thief is suddenly beginning to die. Blaming an equally ancient matrilineal family, committed to protecting the sacred circle of Life and Death, he targets the last of their line, Nakita. If he can trick her into releasing her lie, he will not only win the multi-generational war, but humanity will be free of death. Or, at least, he will be.Nakita, in grief over the untimely death of her mother and the departure of her lover Celebrity, appears perfectly vulnerable. Young, educated in a post-modern and scientific age, and having rejected her inheritance, her mother's magickal traditions, Nakita struggles to build a good and happy life at a time when all meaning-making is up for grabs. When The Thief, whose very existence suggests he knows the secrets she needs, spins his web to catch her, Nakita seems to float right into it. What ensues is a delicate, violent dance in which each strives to outmaneuver the other. To save herself, Nakita must find something even more powerful than truth to beat the Thief of Lies at his own game. In the wake of the final battle, full of sex, fire, and fury, it is Celebrity, without a magical bone in her body, who offers the secret to save Nakita in the end. Will Nakita take it?

“Remarkable . . . Scott Lynch’s first novel, The Lies of Locke Lamora, exports the suspense and wit of a cleverly constructed crime caper into an exotic realm of fantasy, and the result is engagingly entertaining.”—The Times (London) An orphan’s life is harsh—and often short—in the mysterious island city of Camorr. But young Locke Lamora dodges death and slavery, becoming a thief under the tutelage of a gifted con artist. As leader of the band of light-fingered brothers known as the Gentleman Bastards, Locke is soon infamous, fooling even the underworld’s most feared ruler. But in the shadows lurks someone still more ambitious and deadly. Faced with a bloody coup that threatens to destroy everyone and everything that holds meaning in his mercenary life, Locke vows to beat the enemy at his own brutal game—or die trying. Praise for The Lies of Locke Lamora “Fresh, original, and engrossing . . . gorgeously realized.”—George R. R. Martin “Right now, in the full flush of a second reading, I think The Lies of Locke Lamora is probably in my top ten favorite books ever. Maybe my top five. If you haven’t read it, you should. If you have read it, you should probably read it again.”—Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times bestselling author of The Name of the Wind “A unique fantasy milieu peopled by absorbing, colorful characters . . . Locke’s wit and audacity endear him to victims and bystanders alike.”—The Seattle Times “A true genre bender, at home on almost any kind of fiction shelf . . . Lynch immediately establishes himself as a gifted and fearless storyteller, unafraid of comparisons to Silverberg and Jordan, not to mention David Liss and even Dickens.”—Booklist (starred review) “High-octane fantasy . . . a great swashbuckling yarn of a novel.”—Richard Morgan
