The future of the world is in their hands, and they will set it right. Valerie has returned to New York in a time of reckoning. When an enemy declares war on her and her friends, there's no holding back. The whole gang reunites for a fight-fest of epic proportions that promises to determine the fate of their lands once and for all. Honor. Justice. Glory. These are the trademarks of this new world. These are the lynch-pins she and hers have set in place, and they refuse to let anyone try to break them down.

Valerie has found her way full circle, heading back to Europe, where it all began. New enemies await, calling themselves The Gods, and the journey to put an end to the Atlantic pirate problem means dealing with the local trouble makers as well as these false gods. For Cammie and Royland, it also means bringing a boy to his home, and ensuring he has a safe place to live. Meanwhile, Diego and Sgt. Garcia begin their journey to secure their side of America.

A time of reckoning has come for the council of Toro, a bandit city about to burst with corruption and injustice. Valerie refuses to allow her world to rot, and she's brought friends to help her teach the council a lesson. As if that weren't enough, Cammie and Royland have begun to rule the former pirate island. This involves ensuring there are no nearby threats, so while these two might be perfect for each other, they have business to attend to before they can sit back and bask in their newfound positions of power. And down south, New York has risen up out of the sewers it once occupied. It's a new world, one Sandra and the others might just one day soon be able to enjoy without bloodshed.

The goddess is on the run, and the hunt has begun. Gone are the days of worry and injustice. Now, with the combined power of the armies of Roneland, the Ghostland clans, and the king of Gulanri, there will be retribution. Evil will make its last stand and find out that the combined armies of the Lost Isles mean business. But the hunt brings the siblings to the enemy's lair, and this serpent's venom is deadly. They must move carefully in this war against evil, or be swallowed up and lost to the clutches of darkness.

Journey into an undercover mission by two mystics, a journey into the kingdom of the south where new secrets are uncovered, and a land of elemental-based magic and, maybe... a unicorn. In the penultimate book of the Hidden Magic Chronicles, these two siblings learn the secrets of their past, discover the expanse of their magical abilities, and find new friendships in unsuspected places.

Quinn was a Marine sergeant hell-bent on ensuring that her young daughter had a world to grow up in.

The Syndicate leader, known as the Potentate, watches over everything, biding his time, working feverishly to manipulate their actions....

Will Katherine and her new clan of two werewolves and a half-vampire be enough to take on such levels of evil?
