Red City
by Marie Lu
Alchemy is the hidden art of transformation. An exclusive power wielded by crime syndicates that market it to the world's elites in the form of Sand, a drug that enhances those who take it into a more perfect version of themselves: more beautiful, more charismatic, simply more. Among the gleaming skyscrapers and rolling foothills of Angel City, alchemy is controlled by two rival syndicates. For years, Grand Central and Lumines have been balanced on a razor's edge between polite negotiation and outright violence. But when two childhood friends step into that delicate equation, the city -- and the paths of their lives -- will be irrevocably transformed.

A Resistance of Witches
by Morgan Ryan
The Witches of Britain have joined the war effort against Hitler, and Lydia is key to the cause: she must use her magic to track down magical relics before Hitler and his sycophants can. Then a Nazi witch infiltrates the Academy, leaving the coven shaken, exposed and divided: the elder British witches have no interest in further loss of coven life in service of a government, no matter the consequences to the world. But with the discovery of the Grimorium Bellum, an ancient book that leaves a trail of death and destruction wherever it goes-one the Nazi coven is desperate to get their hands on-Lydia's mission has never been more urgent. Lydia makes her way to the heart of occupied France, where she finds allies in Rebecca Gagne-a French resistance fighter-and Henry Boudreaux-a-Haitian-American art historian. Together, they traverse the country, stalked by the natural and supernatural alike, in search of the grimoire.
