      Debut author Justin A. Reynolds delivers a hilarious and heartfelt novel about the choices we make, the people we choose, and the moments that make a life worth reliving. When Jack and Kate meet at a party, bonding until sunrise over their mutual love of Froot Loops and their favorite flicks, Jack knows he’s falling—hard. Soon she’s meeting his best friends, Jillian and Franny, and Kate wins them over as easily as she did Jack. But then Kate dies. And their story should end there. Yet Kate’s death sends Jack back to the beginning, the moment they first meet, and Kate’s there again. Healthy, happy, and charming as ever. Jack isn’t sure if he’s losing his mind. Still, if he has a chance to prevent Kate’s death, he’ll take it. Even if that means believing in time travel. However, Jack will learn that his actions are not without consequences. And when one choice turns deadly for someone else close to him, he has to figure out what he’s willing to do to save the people he loves.

      Billi SanGreal di giorno è una ragazza irrequieta e solitaria, ma di notte è ostaggio di un'oscura profezia: è l'unica donna ammessa nell'ultimo drappello dei Templari, e nel segreto più assoluto viene addestrata a combattere come uno spietato guerriero. Ma quando conosce il seducente Mike si scopre a desiderare di essere un'adolescente qualsiasi, una che possa innamorarsi anziché combattere contro i demoni. Baciarlo si rivela però un errore fatale: Mike non è ciò che sembra, e la metterà di fronte a scelte disumane. Billi scopre infatti che Londra è in pericolo, e così l'intera umanità. Con l'aiuto del fedele Kay, giovane Oracolo dell'Ordine, la ragazza si lancerà in un'inesorabile corsa contro il tempo, per trovare l'unica arma capace di uccidere gli angeli ribelli, ma anche la forza necessaria a compiere un estremo, atroce sacrificio.

      December 21, 2012, may be one of the most watched dates in history. Every 26,000 years, earth lines up with the exact center of our galaxy. At 11:11 on December 21, 2012, this event happens again, and the ancient Maya calculated that it would mark the end, not only of this age, but of human consciousness as we know it. But what will actually happen? The end of the world? A new age for mankind? Nothing? The last time this happened, Cro-Magnon man suddenly began creating great art in the caves of southern France, which to this day remains one of the most inexplicable changes in human history. Now Whitley Strieber explores 2012 in a towering work of fiction that will astound readers with its truly new insights and a riveting roller-coaster ride of a story. A mysterious alien presence unexpectedly bursts out of sacred sites all over the world and begins to rip human souls from their bodies, plunging the world into chaos it has never before known. Courage meets cowardice, loyalty meets betrayal as an entire world struggles to survive this incredible end-all war. Heroes emerge, villains reveal themselves, and in the end something completely new and unexpected happens that at once lifts the fictional characters into a new life, and sounds a haunting real-world warning for the future.
