From New York Times best-selling author, Kim Harrison, comes the fourth book in her brilliant series, The Hollows; packed with vampires, werewolves and witches – don’t miss out on this sexy urban fantasy.There's no rest for the wicked, even when the taint on your soul isn't your fault.It would be wise for witch and bounty hunter, Rachel Morgan, to keep a low profile right now. Her new reputation for the dark arts has piqued the interest of Cincinnati's night-prowlers, who despise her and long to bring an end to her interference, one way or another.Nevertheless, Rachel must risk exposure. Her ex-boyfriend, Nick, has stolen a priceless Were artefact, and, as tempting as it may be to let the Weres him apart, Rachel feels obliged to attempt a rescue. But other sinister forces also covet the relic Nick has hidden. Some who desire it so badly, they will take the city – and everyone in it – apart to wield its frightening power.

&lt;em>Tales of loathsome kings and prophesied saviors aren&#39;t so appealing when you are a royal bastard of prophecy…&lt;/em><br><br>Evonal&eacute; Yunan has never cared for tales of loathsome tyrants, seduced maids, and prophesied saviors. She herself is supposed to somehow free her grandmother&#39;s enslaved queendom. But she&#39;s merely a child, and her father is the powerful fire mage who subjugates the realm.<br><br>Evonal&eacute; has therefore fled home, her two half-siblings, and the father who really should&#39;ve been her uncle.

Fortunately, following her mother&#39;s directions has put her in another king&#39;s hunting grounds. To Evonal&eacute;&#39;s bewilderment, that king picks her up and gives her a place in his palace. The prince seeks her out to tease and befriend.<br><br>Then one of Cook&#39;s daughters starts teaching her magic, and a scullery maid proves herself immune to poison.<br><br>Evonal&eacute; isn&#39;t the only one with secrets.<br>&mdash;<br>(A novel of 78,000 words.)<br><br>ALERT: Contains some mature themes and responsible use of alcohol. The narrator&#39;s family is sadistic.

We are made up of star stuff! This elegant idea became tangibly real when the liberal clergy author was handed a cottonwood twig with a tiny star hiding inside. &nbsp;Gathering up fists full of these star sticks, and in collaboration with her &lsquo;rocket scientist&rsquo; partner, she set out to reframe the human experience within its cosmic context. Here she shows how living in communion with the cosmos can affect the way we live in community, understand ourselves, and connect with the Source of all Becoming. &nbsp;In the addendum, she invites readers to add to the evolving new cosmic narrative of living &lsquo;from ashes to ashes, dust to dust, star stuff to star stuff.&rsquo;
