A Monster Like Me Pamela Sparkman (Heart of Darkness, #2) Publication date: Spring 2018 Genres: Fantasy, Young Adult “I love the peculiar silence of shadows. They exist, but leave no mark.” Zeph had been a child, thrust into a war that wasn’t his. When he was older, he discovered he had landed on the wrong side of everything.

He’s just—lost.” That’s what Arwyn believes. She sees th...

Joined Mara Gan (Joined #1) Published by: Inkspell Publishing Publication date: September 12th 2017 Genres: Fantasy, Young Adult Duty and prophecy get in the way of everything. All I ever wanted to do was read my books, play my sports, and help people. Life and prophecy had other things in mind. Helping people is what I do; as an empath and semi-frequent telepath, I can easily sense and understand people’s needs and emotions. Sometimes even before they do. Being able to read everyone’s thoughts and feelings all the time can drive me crazy with anxiety, but that moment when I can finally make someone’s life better makes everything worth it. Unfortunately, I’m also the next in line to rule the galaxy, I’m the only diplomat most planets will listen to, assassins try to kill me on an annoyingly regular basis, and a much-vaunted Prophecy has decreed that I’m going to die. Oh, and someone blew up my home planet. Kind of a lot to deal with, right? Too bad I just got another pro...
