An arrogant dragon. A smart-mouthed priestess. The fate of the world depends on them working together.
Suzume’s life is ruined. Exiled to a remote mountain shrine, she is training to become a priestess. A life of poverty doesn’t suit her, and she dreams of her old life as a princess. When she accidentally awakens the god of the mountain, she discovers new powers and a whole lot of problems.
The god is a fake. For five hundred years, the dragon was trapped at the shrine. Betrayed by the woman he loved, he needs to find her reincarnation to get his revenge. Since Suzume freed him, he chooses her to help him. But when Suzume discovers she’s that woman, it’s a race to seal him again before he finds out.
With new powers come dangerous enemies. The dragon is not the only one she needs to worry about. A powerful monster wants Suzume for his own. Until she can learn to control her abilities, the dragon is the only one who can protect her. They must learn to work together to stop him, if they don’t kill each other in the process.

The bundle includes "Jesus Ascended. What Does That Mean?" and "Bethlehem, the Night Jesus Was Born."
"Jesus Ascended. What Does That Mean?" exploeres the 40 days after the resurrection, and how it changed the lives of the disciples.
"Bethlehem, the Year Jesus Was Born" looks at the real history of Christmas. It looks beyond what we have come to know from church Christmas pagents, and investigates the theology behind the season.

Rudyard Kipling's Just So Stories was one of the first true children's books in the English language, a timeless classic that continues to delight readers to this day. Beautiful, evocative and playful, the stories of How the Whale Got His Throat or How the First Letter Was Written paint a world of magic and wonder.
It's also deeply rooted in British colonialism. Kipling saw the Empire as a benign, civilising force, in a way that's troubling to modern readers. Not So Stories attempts to redress the balance, bringing together new and established writers of colour from around the world to take the Just So Stories back, to interrogate, challenge and celebrate their legacy.
Including stories by Adiwijaya Iskandar, Joseph E. Cole, Raymond Gates, Stewart Hotston, Zina Hutton, Georgina Kamsika, Cassandra Khaw, Paul Krueger, Tauriq Moosa, Jeannette Ng, Ali Nouraei, Wayne Santos and Zedeck Siew, illustrations by Woodrow Phoenix and an introduction by Nikesh Shukla.
Caught in a web of lies and deceit, true love is something Karina cannot trust. But she may have to trust Nic. With everything she cares about at risk, she might have no choice. Passion explodes, and the forbidden love affair may ruin Karina’s future. Can Nic uncover the evil plot in time?
“The heat of their relationship couldn’t be denied or ignored. Karina had no idea what to do about it, and wondered if Nic did either. Taboo or not, their intimacy had blossomed and she wanted to be with him. More than she cared to admit. That was the truth. Her feelings seemed to rise up and swamp all good judgment. And she feared it would end badly.”
You'll be swept up in this roller-coaster relationship and carried away to Tuscany for a suspense-filled love story!

CIA assassin Fortune Redding is about to undertake her most difficult mission ever—in Sinful, Louisiana. With a leak at the CIA and a price placed on her head by one of the world's largest arms dealers, Fortune has to go off-grid, but she never expected to be this far out of her element. Posing as a former beauty queen turned librarian in a small bayou town seems worse than death to Fortune, but she's determined to fly below the radar until her boss finds the leak and puts the arms dealer out of play. Unfortunately, she hasn't even unpacked a suitcase before her newly inherited dog digs up a human bone in her backyard.
Thrust into the middle of a bayou murder mystery, Fortune teams up with a couple of seemingly sweet old ladies whose looks completely belie their hold on the little town. To top things off, the handsome local deputy is asking her too many questions. If she's not careful, this investigation might blow her cover and get her killed. Armed with her considerable skills and a group of elderly ladies the locals dub The Geritol Mafia, Fortune has no choice but to solve the murder before it's too late.
