Peter Grant #2: Moon Over Soho
London constable and sorcerer's apprentice Peter Grant hears the notes of an old jazz standard rising from a dead body - a sure sign it wasn't death by natural causes. A pattern of similar deaths in and around Soho points him to a deadly magical menace - one that leads right to his own doorstep, and the squandered promise of a young jazz muscian: his dad.
Recommended by Elizabeth: Magic + police procedural in modern-day London with lots of action, a decidedly British sense of humor, and a refreshingly diverse cast of characters.

Ages 9 and up. Be careful what you wish for. Wishes can get you trapped in fantasy worlds full of killer bunny rabbits, evil aunts, and bothersome bacteria, for example. At least, that's Ralph's experience, when he's asked to spend the summer with his strange British relatives, setting up a wi-fi network at their old manor house. There's much more than internet access going on there - and this game is much stranger, and funnier, than anything on his Xbox.

Can You Survive the Zombie Apocalypse?
A novel that offers the readers hundreds of options in choosing a course through the zombie apocalypse.
The sun is setting on humanity. The demons are back, and the return of the Deliverer is just another myth - or is it? Out of the desert rides Ahmann Jardir, who has forged the desert tribes into a demon-killing army. He has proclaimed himself the Deliverer, and he carries ancient weapons that give credence to his claim. He has come north to bring the scattered city-states of the green lands together in a war against demonkind - whether they like it or not. But the northerners claim their own Deliverer - the Warded Man. He denies that he is the Deliverer, but his actions speak louder than words, for he teaches men and women to face their fears and stand fast against the creatures that have tormented them for centuries.
