    Summary

    The people around Ciel scared Soma. From Lau and his hidden malice, to Undertaker's morbid humor, to his servants' weapons and veiled pasts, he was always frightened of someone. But what scared him most of all was how every one of them accepted Ciel as their leader and never once questioned his authority.

    That was why Ciel scared Soma.

    Summary

    The Shadow Fold has endured for more than six hundred years. Now in the twenty-first century, the Darkling serves under greedy politicians as a five-star General of the Second Army. Until he can make his move towards power, until he can finally find his fabled Sun Summoner.

    Alina Starkov is just an entry-level intelligence analyst for the Ravkan First Army, watching massive screens of satellite footage for hours on end. Mostly handling documentation, cross-referencing incoming intel, outlining small skirmishes on digital maps. The minutia kind of stuff. She'd be the first to tell you that she isn't anyone special, certainly not Grisha.

    Or: A modern retelling of Shadow and Bone.

    Summary

    Queen in the North Sansa Stark, first of her name, passes away after a long and peaceful life of ruling. She's at peace, knowing her eldest son will watch over their kingdom after her.

    Yet, she opens her eyes again. But this time, she's Helaena Targaryen, the tragic sister-wife of Aegon II Targaryen, mere years before the beginning of the Dance of the Dragons. Armed with her knowledge of history and her wits, she has no choice but to fight for the faction she's been born into, for war is inevitable. She might be a dragon in this lifetime, but she was born a wolf and only a united pack can survive winter.

    Note: The Helaena ship has finally been decided, it will be a happy Aegon/Helaena.

    Summary

    1972: an unnamed historian publishes a series of firsthand letters, documents, and accounts writ by the most notorious family in Victorian London, the Phantomhives.

    "A haunting, darkly devious collection of letters and notes written by a man history has marked as the 'villainous noble'...his demands are unnerving and his eloquence, chilling; but beneath this facade of enigmatic coolness lies a complex, contradictory figure who history itself seems fascinated with." - Frederick Taylor, The New York Times

    "I can't think of a better representation of Victorian letter writing than 'The Phantomhive Archives'. It reads like a gothic novel and when you're done, you can't help but wonder what it would've been like to have tea served to you by Sebastian Michaelis all the while knowing he's probably assisted his master with murder." - John Carpenter, The Atlantic Monthly

    "It's amazing that, after having read these letters, you learn that the Queen's Watchdog was almost a Byronic anti-hero...[with] an unrelentingly selfish streak that is never better represented than when he confesses his love to the Lady Elizabeth or interacts with his ever present butler, Sebastian." - Theodora Visitor, The Boston Globe
