Holly Lisle is the author of sixteen novels, including the popular Glenraven and Fire in the Mist.
Now she begins a new trilogy set on a unique fantasy world.
Kait Galweigh is a young noblewoman and diplomat, a woman with secret powers considered so cursed her own family would
destroy her if they were to be revealed. Now Kait has stumbled on a sinister plot against her family
-- a plot involving both human and magical forces. And the longer things go on, the more it begins to look as if
the only solution is to use her latent abilities. Soon she's forced to flee, with demons on her tail and
no one left to turn to -- and intrigues around every corner.

Hell on High
& Ted Nolan
Baen
Devil's Point Amusement Park is not your typical theme park. For one thing, it offers an Extinct Species Petting Zoo.
And then there's the waterpark with real mermaids, the live-action role-playing park with special effects
designed in Hell... and for the discriminating shopper, the ultimate Mall, with every illicit product you can imagine.
And all at reasonable rates! But the real draw is Desire Point, where customers can always find exactly what
they've always wanted. But of course, there's a special premium to get into Desire Point... but it's nothing you'll
miss. Really.
