Six of Crows is a fantasy novel written by the Israeli-American author Leigh Bardugo, published by Henry Holt and Co. in 2015. The story is set in the city of Ketterdam, loosely inspired by Dutch Republic-era Amsterdam, and follows a thieving crew.

The narrative unfolds from the third-person viewpoints of seven different characters. Kaz Brekker, a criminal prodigy, is offered a chance at a deadly heist that could make him rich beyond his wildest dreams. However, he cannot pull it off alone and must rely on:

  • A convict with a thirst for revenge
  • A sharpshooter who cannot walk away from a wager
  • A runaway with a privileged past
  • A spy known as the Wraith
  • A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums
  • A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes

Six dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist. Kaz's crew is the only thing that might stand between the world and destruction—if they don't kill each other first.

Six of Crows is the first book in the Six of Crows Duology and is part of the larger Grishaverse.

2015

by Elissa Riley

Deep in the dark woods, seventeen-year-old Leira Sky mourns the death of her mother, with only the trees around her for company. But when those trees begin to change, alerted by the presence of a peculiar boy named Tristan Harper, Leira finds herself propelled into a strange new world—one that’s home to bizarre bark-covered creatures, invisible beasts, and a demented king who waits in his dark tower, curling his fingers at the sight of foreign blood.

But Leira quickly realizes that it may be too late to undo what she’s done. Because now—they know she’s there. And when Leira’s fate is sealed, and her life begins to unravel, Leira and Tristan must race against time to see if love is enough to change her fate.

Carry On

2015

by Rainbow Rowell

Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen.

That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right.

Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he sets something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if he were here—it's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.

Carry On is a ghost story, a love story, and a mystery. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story—but far, far more monsters.

She: A History of Adventure

She is the story of Cambridge professor Horace Holly and his ward Leo Vincey, and their journey to a lost kingdom in the African interior. The journey is triggered by a mysterious package left to Leo by his father, to be opened on his 25th birthday; the package contains an ancient shard of pottery and several documents, suggesting an ancient mystery about the Vincey family.

Holly and Leo eventually arrive in eastern Africa where they encounter a primitive race of natives and a mysterious white queen, Ayesha, who reigns as the all-powerful "She" or "She-who-must-be-obeyed" and who has a mysterious connection to young Leo.

The story expresses numerous racial and evolutionary conceptions of the late Victorians, especially notions of degeneration and racial decline prominent during the fin de siècle. In the figure of She, the novel notably explored themes of female authority and feminine behaviour.

The Golden Braid

The Golden Braid is a delightful retelling of the classic Rapunzel story. This version proves that the one who needs rescuing isn’t always the one in the tower.

Rapunzel is no ordinary girl. She can throw a knife better than any man and paints beautiful flowering vines on the walls of her plaster houses. Her voice is so sweet, it can coax even a beast to sleep. However, there are two things she fears her mother might never allow her to do: learn to read and marry.

Devoted fiercely to Rapunzel, her mother is suspicious of every man who so much as looks at her daughter, warning that no man can be trusted. After a young village farmer proposes to Rapunzel, her mother decides to move them to the large city of Hagenheim.

The journey to Hagenheim proves treacherous. Rapunzel is rescued by a knight—Sir Gerek. But in a twist of fate, Rapunzel rescues him later down the road. Grateful, Sir Gerek agrees to repay his debt by teaching Rapunzel to read. Could there be more to this knight than his arrogance and desire to marry for riches and position?

As Rapunzel adjusts to life in the new city, she uncovers a mystery that will forever change her life. In this unique retelling, a world of secrets and treachery is revealed after seventeen years of lies. How will Rapunzel finally take control of her own destiny? And who will prove faithful to a lowly peasant girl with no one to turn to?

The duo who captivated millions of readers in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest join forces again in this adrenaline-charged, uniquely of-the-moment thriller.

Split Second

Split Second is a stunningly unique time travel thriller that will captivate your imagination. What if you found a way to send something back in time? But not weeks, days, or even minutes back. What if you could only send something back a fraction of a second? Would this be of any use? You wouldn't have nearly enough time to right a wrong, change an event, or win a lottery.

Nathan Wexler is a brilliant physicist who thinks he's found a way to send matter a split second back into the past. But before he can even confirm his findings, he and his wife-to-be, Jenna Morrison, find themselves in a battle for their very lives. Because while time travel to an instant earlier seems useless, Jenna comes to learn that no capability in history has ever been more profound or far-reaching.

Now, as Jenna fights to defeat the powerful forces arrayed against her, nothing less than the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. Split Second is a roller-coaster ride of a thriller, one that will have readers pondering the nature of time, and of reality, long after they've read the last page.
