Publisher's summary
IF EMOTION FLICKERS, THE MASK WILL KILL YOU. REMAIN LOYAL TO YOUR HOUSE FOR THE PRESERVATION OF OUR CITY.
I'imrik never needed a mask. As Maskless of the House of Apathy, I'imrik had conquered every emotion and felt nothing. The Sorrows were bound to sadness, and the Rages, their anger; Joys pranced with grotesque, unwavering smiles. Feeling an emotion outside of your district was a Betrayal of one's house, and Betrayal was punishable by death.
When Lilo, the new Maskless of the House of Joy, invites I'imrik to a fight to the death, his eyes open to a world of chaos. Experiencing emotion for the first time in his life, I'imrik fights for control of his mind and the world he's always held in his hand. It's a race against time to find the god who created their City and reclaim control of his heart. The choices are simple: restore his seat in the House of Apathy or die.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,814
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Story5 out of 5 stars 1
There was something about the small house in the Indiana woods that wasn’t quite right. At first Cathy Ballard thought it was the size. But she and her husband were soon to learn it was something beyond earthly dimensions. Like the bulging doors...the taunting voices...the heart-wrenching vision of a hollow-eyed, spectral boy...the rapacious monsters in human form. The house was haunted by angry, restless ghosts—both the victims and the perpetrators of past, unspeakable acts.

Long before the world of man, demons and demigods battled for dominance. After the demons were finally bound in the Well of Sacrifice, the system of good and evil became tentatively balanced. Now that balance is threatened.
Marked at birth by the gods, Renn and Avaris set in motion an ancient prophecy that promises to shift the balance of power, so dark forces will rule unchecked. With armies and a host of magic users at his command, the Grand Warlock, Khan Devin, is determined to use the boys to fix his place as the unchallenged ruler of man.

Outstanding writing and unique plot
A Masquerade of Corpses is unique, intriguing, thrilling, and so much more. Colorful, vivid writing allowed me to picture every sentence and keep me hooked page after page. This book tells a story that's never been told and could not have been told better.
