Scylla thought she was normal, with a normal home life, and only the normal oddities of being a teenager to cause her angst. Everything changes during her senior year in high school when she discovers that not everyone lives with demons, gargoyles, angels and vampires, and not everyone has a crazy group of people who are actively hunting them down and trying to kill them. When you're the granddaughter of some big-name gods and the daughter of a well-known, mass-murdering demigod, life can be really weird.

The Trojan War occurred more than 3,000 years ago. Since then, starting with Homer's epics, people have been writing, painting, sculpting and creating music about this event and its participants. This book starts with an overview of the Bronze Age when the Trojan War occurred, and then follows a selection of the major literature about this war from Homer down through the ages and on to the Internet. Each retelling of the Troy story is discussed in its historical context and includes a synopsis of the story itself. The ways of telling the story change over time. The main versions considered include Homer's Iliad and Odyssey; a selection of Classical Greek Dramas (especially Iphigenia at Aulis); Virgil's Aeneid; Chaucer's Troilus and Criseyde; Guido delle Colonne's History of the Destruction of Troy; Racine's Iphigenia (at Aulis); Goethe's Iphigenia in Tauris; Shakespeare's Troilus and Cressida; Joyce's Ulysses; and two feminist Troy novels, Sheri Tepper's The Gate to Women's Country and Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Firebrand.

Since its first appearance in 2008, this book has changed the landscape of Virgilian studies. Analysing closely the logic and the literary genres of Virgil's three poems, it politely confronts the modern orthodoxy that Virgil signalled distaste for the methods of his ruler, Octavian-Augustus. It refreshes the study of Virgil's poetry by comparing it with the detail (normally neglected by scholars) of Rome's civil wars after Julius Caesar's death, when Octavian's survival looked highly unlikely. And it argues that Virgil wrote as a passionate - and brave - partisan of Octavian, who - like a good lawyer - confronted his patron's undeniable failings in order to defend.
The Dark World is changing. Xavier Delacroix is thrown into the fray of The Dark World as the new breed of Creature consumes all. Confusion meets him at every turn while this strange dread that claims the World holds all Creatures in its grasp…including him. Christian Delacroix is kept maddeningly close to the mysterious Alexandria Stone. And despite the fact that her blood does not reach him, it seems to reach other Creatures. For they are coming for her, and if he can take his eyes off the interesting red light that seeps past her skin while she sleeps, he just may be able to keep her safe. The Immortal’s Guide: A powerful book every Creature wants to get their hands on is lost. But a Vampire Dracula kept close may know where it is. And he wants to help Xavier reach it while others want to keep him from it. It’s a race to the book, a race to escape the clutches of the surprising new Creature that is as familiar as she is deadly; it’s a race to save the Dark World before it falls to her powerful hands.

As a cassandra sangue, or blood prophet, Meg Corbyn can see the future when her skin is cut—a gift that feels more like a curse. Meg’s Controller keeps her enslaved so he can have full access to her visions. But when she escapes, the only safe place Meg can hide is at the Lakeside Courtyard—a business district operated by the Others. Shape-shifter Simon Wolfgard is reluctant to hire the stranger who inquires about the Human Liaison job. First, he senses she’s keeping a secret, and second, she doesn’t smell like human prey. Yet a stronger instinct propels him to give Meg the job. And when he learns the truth about Meg and that she’s wanted by the government, he’ll have to decide if she’s worth the fight between humans and the Others that will surely follow.
