Especially for you.
We're new. And we're small. But we're doing big things.

Coming Winter 2026-2027:
Horror welcomes its next great King with the debut novel from King Donovan: DECEIVED (Book One of THE DISPOSSESSED series).
The gruesome death of a child shatters the resilient folks of a rugged, isolated community deep in the Arkansas Ozarks. Is this just another backwoods tragedy... or the onslaught of a supernatural evil that can inhabit even your most cherished loved ones? Can prodigal local son Adam Stewart save the people and the place he once abandoned and that now means so much to him? Will it cost him the love that redeemed his wayward past? King Donovan's spectacular debut is Southern Gothic horror rendered with raw emotional realism and cinematic flair.
At South Bank High, nobody gets through adolescence without a little drama. A.H. Lancer's hot new YA series, SOUTH BANK HIGH, resets the classic plays of William Shakespeare at a modern American high school, with a twist: the bit players now take center stage.
Coming in September 2026: HIGH DRAMA (inspired by A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM). The disgruntled Drama Club freshmen (the Mechanicals) revolt against the established hierarchy and steal the spotlight at South Bank High's annual Forest Fest, as the student body eagerly anticipates the epic 'promposal' by B.M.O.C. Theo (Theseus) to his "Most Popular" girlfriend Polly (Hyppolita).
Susannah Logan's COLUMBIA RISING series follows newly-orphaned 14-year-old Carolina Columbia Miller from her loyalist uncle's home in 1765 Boston to her destiny as a battle-scarred, self-reliant woman at the series’ conclusion 15 years later.
Against a backdrop of rebellion, espionage, and romance, the COLUMBIA RISING series follows one young woman's journey as she joins the fight for American independence from British Rule, risking her only remaining family, her one true love, and her very life for the the cause of freedom.
Read the historical epic that advance readers are comparing to the novels of Kristin Hannah and Margaret Mitchell.
