Born to rule. Destined to die. Saved by love. In Raven Araroa’s kingdom, firstborn royal daughters were destined to rule, the Woman Kings of Nadir. A thousand years before she was born, a malevolent regime decreed there would be no more Woman Kings, by ordering firstborn daughters to immediately be put to death. But one of the daughters has survived. Born to the Queen in secret, Raven has been raised in a treevillage far from the royal palace. She is sixteen when her existence is discovered by the King. Pursued by the King's Hunters, and knowing she'll be killed if she's caught, Raven must flee. With two friends, she sets off, bound for the safety of a neighboring island nation. When she meets a charming boy along the way, her destiny becomes clear … but can she trust him?

Nellybug may be the first tooth fairy but it doesn't mean she's got the job all figured out. Everyone is calling on her, requesting protection from the Nightmares or more supplies, always more supplies. She's good at it but, I mean, she's just one fairy. One of these days, she'll get it all figured out and get ahead of schedule. Not any time soon though as a mysterious, poisonous threat labeled as shadow frost moves into Neverland and kills anything it touches. She must gather support and lead a team of friends and warriors to search for the source, running into pirates, spiders, bats, and even a shoe-collecting ogre along the way. If the team can come together and figure out how to defeat the creatures of darkness, they just might have a chance of saving Neverland...unless a mad gardener has his way.

Ever wonder why life doesn't always go according to plan? Perhaps you had a big party to go to when you came down with a terrible cold. Or you were up to play quarterback when you twisted your ankle. Or your favorite shirt got a hole in it exactly when you were about to show it off to a friend. You might chalk it up to bad luck, poor timing, or straight up clumsiness. Nathanial Thatcher believed he'd drawn the short straw in life and blamed his weak immune system for keeping him locked up in his sanitized bedroom. It took his 12th birthday wish to cure him and finally pull the trick off his eyes revealing the true culprits of his situation, and perhaps yours, the sprites! Now Nathanial must take on these wish thieves if he is to keep his health. But how does one boy stand up against a society of sprites who make their living from using humans like factories? His new friend Aliya might know, but Nathanial must rescue her off that pirate ship and let a dagger guide them through enemy filled terrain before they can reach the only sprites sympathetic enough to help them, the wish sprites. The alternative is not acceptable and Nathanial will do whatever it takes to gain control over his own life.
