There’s no such thing as safe in a city at war, a city overrun with monsters. In this dark urban fantasy from acclaimed author Victoria Schwab, a young woman and a young man must choose whether to become heroes or villains --- and friends or enemies --- with the future of their home at stake. The first of two books, THIS SAVAGE SONG is a must-have for fans of Holly Black, Maggie Stiefvater and Laini Taylor.

Alison Anderson, author of The Summer Guest

What if Anton Chekhov, undisputed master of the short story, secretly wrote a novel --- a manuscript hidden long ago that might have survived? This tantalizing possibility drives THE SUMMER GUEST, a spellbinding story --- inspired by historical events --- in which a diary weaves together the lives of three women: a dying Ukranian doctor who befriends Anton Chekov in the 19th century, a modern-day London book editor, and the woman she hires to translate it into English.
