Phineas Smith has been cursed with a power no one could control. Roark Lyne is his worst enemy and his only hope. First in the Darkest Court series. The only human student at Mather’s School of Magick, Phineas Smith has a target on his back. Born with the rare ability to tap into unlimited magick, he finds both Faerie Courts want his allegiance—and will do anything to get it. They don’t realize he can’t levitate a feather, much less defend the Faerie Realm as it slips into civil war. Unseelie Prince Roark Lyne—Phineas’s roommate and self-proclaimed arch nemesis—is beautiful and brave and a pain in the ass. Phineas can’t begin to sort through their six years of sexual tension masquerading as mutual dislike. But Roark is also the only one able to help Finn tame his magick. Trusting Roark’s mysterious motives may be foolish; not accepting his temporary protection would be deadly. Caught in the middle of the impending war, Phineas and Roark forge a dangerous alliance. And as the walls between them crumble, Phineas realizes that Roark isn’t the monster he’d imagined. But their growing intimacy threatens to expose a secret that could either turn the tide of the war . . . or destroy them both.

Thirteen-year-old Amos Beery will freely admit he is a dork, but he desperately hopes he is more than that. And he had better be. His mother's life depends on it. To save her, he will have to risk everything and face dangers he'd never imagined. With the help of his best Finny Coogan, salty old Granny Tucker, ex-hobo Roy Fitch, street rapper Honeyboy Cain, Alzheimer's patient Rosie Wong, a talking bird named Pixie, and even an unlikely swarm of tarantula wasps, Amos faces one daunting challenge after another-from a jarring motorcycle ride through a torrent of rain in the black night, to a kick in the face from a leg flying through the air, to a surprise fall down into the earth. First, he must steal the recipe for the long-forgotten tribal cure that is his mother's only chance. And who does he steal it from? Only the meanest man he ever met-Rafe Lebeau. Next, he must search out the ingredients for that cure, then prepare it flawlessly and speed it to his mother, whatever the cost. And the cost could be his own life. Though he does have help, it is alone that he must, like David of the Bible, face down his own Goliath...if he's got the guts. Throughout the journey, Amos is haunted by a recurring dream in which his mother will surely die. As for the end of that dream, it never comes-at least, not when Amos is asleep. But when it does come, Amos Beery knows that he will never again be the same.
