Eli Monpress #2: The Spirit Rebellion
Everyone is hunting for Eli, a brilliant, incorrigible thief. Miranda's been kicked out of the Spirit Court, but she has a new job - and an opportunity to capture him. And Eli's next target is the Duke of Gaol's famous thief-proof citadel. Of course it's a trap, but what's life without challenges? Except the Duke is a wealthy, powerful wizard with only one hobby: trying to catch Eli.
Recommended by Elizabeth: Lively fantasy with a touch of humor - I'm looking forward to more antics from Eli and his crew.

Makers
Perry and Lester invent things. Also new economic systems, like the New Work. When it goes bust, Perry and Lester build a network of interactive rides commemorating its glory days. As the rides gain in popularity, a rogue Disney executive grows jealous, and convinces the police that Perry and Lester's 3D printers are being used to run off AK-47s. Hordes of goths descend on the shantytown built by the New Workers, joining the cult. Lawsuits multiply as venture capitalists take on a new investment strategy: backing litigation against companies like Disney. And then things start to get interesting.
