There are dangers and adventures in the graveyard for a boy - an ancient Indigo Man beneath the hill, a gateway to a desert leading to an abandoned city of ghouls, the strange and terrible menace of the Sleer. But if Bod leaves the graveyard, then he will come under attack from the man Jack - who has already killed Bod's family.

Void #1: The Dreaming Void
The year is 3589, 1500 years after Commonwealth forces barely staved off human extinction in a war against the alien Prime. Now an even greater danger has surfaced: the Void, a self-contained micro-universe that is expanding in all directions, consuming everything in its path. But Inigo, an astrophysicist studying the Void, begins dreaming of human beings who live within it, revealing a world in which thoughts become actions and dreams become reality. Inside the Void, he sees paradise. His dreams are shared by hundreds of millions, and a religion is born, with Inigo as its prophet. Then he vanishes. Suddenly a new wave of dreams, broadcast by an unknown Second Dreamer, serve as the inspiration for a massive Pilgrimage into the Void. But there is a chance that the pilgrims will trigger an accelerated devourment phase that will swallow up thousands of worlds. And thus begins a desperate race to find Inigo and the mysterious Second Dreamer. Some seek to prevent the Pilgrimage, others to speed its progress - and within the Void, a supreme entity has turned its gaze outward for the first time.

Aristide, a semi-retired computer scientist turned swordsman, seeks meaning amid the accidents of architecture in a universe where reality itself has been sculpted and designed by superhuman machine intelligence. While exploring one of four dozen pocket universes created within a series of vast, orbital matrioshka computer arrays, Aristide uncovers a fiendish plot threatening to set off a nightmare scenario, perhaps even bringing about the ultimate Existential Crisis: the end of civilization itself. Traveling the pocket universes with his wormhole-edged sword Tecmessa in hand and talking cat Bitsy, avatar of the planet-sized computer Endora, at his side, Aristide must find a way to save the multiverse from subversion, sabotage, and certain destruction.

Frontier Magic #1: Thirteenth Child
Signed by the author on the title page. Ages 12 and up. Eff was born a thirteenth child. Her twin brother Lan is the seventh son of a seventh son. This means he's supposed to possess amazing talent - and she's supposed to bring only bad things to her family and her town. When her family moves to the frontier, where her father will be a professor of magic at a school perilously close to the magical divide that separates settlers from the beasts of the wild, Eff and Lan do not know what awaits them in such an unknown place. There are steam dragons that hover in the sky, and strange creatures that could undermine the homesteaders' very existence. Eff is allowed to learn magic with the other students, but there's always the threat of it going horribly wrong, and she always feels one short step away from complete ruin. As Eff and Lan grow older, they face challenges they never dreamed of, and their magic is put to the test in a standoff that will alter their lives forever.
