ONCE UPON A BROKEN HEART marks the launch of a new series from Stephanie Garber about love, curses, and the lengths that people will go to for happily ever after
For as long as she can remember, Evangeline Fox has believed in true love and happy endings . . . until she learns that the love of her life will marry another.
Desperate to stop the wedding and to heal her wounded heart, Evangeline strikes a deal with the charismatic, but wicked, Prince of Hearts. In exchange for his help, he asks for three kisses, to be given at the time and place of his choosing.
But after Evangeline’s first promised kiss, she learns that bargaining with an immortal is a dangerous game ― and that the Prince of Hearts wants far more from her than she’d pledged. He has plans for Evangeline, plans that will either end in the greatest happily ever after, or the most exquisite tragedy.
When you can’t beat the odds, change the game.
Kaz Brekker and his crew have just pulled off a heist so daring even they didn't think they'd survive. But instead of divvying up a fat reward, they're right back to fighting for their lives. Double-crossed and badly weakened, the crew is low on resources, allies, and hope. As powerful forces from around the world descend on Ketterdam to root out the secrets of the dangerous drug known as jurda parem, old rivals and new enemies emerge to challenge Kaz's cunning and test the team's fragile loyalties. A war will be waged on the city's dark and twisting streets―a battle for revenge and redemption that will decide the fate of the Grisha world.

The capital has fallen. The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne.
Now the nation's fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army.
Deep in an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives.
Alina will have to forge new alliances and put aside old rivalries as she and Mal race to find the last of Morozova's amplifiers. But as she begins to unravel the Darkling's secrets, she reveals a past that will forever alter her understanding of the bond they share and the power she wields. The firebird is the one thing that stands between Ravka and destruction - and claiming it could cost Alina the very future she’s fighting for. Ruin and Rising is the thrilling final installment in Leigh Bardugo's Grisha Trilogy.

Powieść z pogranicza różnych gatunków literatury: historycznej, przygodowej, podróżniczej, ale przede wszystkim fantasy. Bohater główny z powodu choroby nowotworowej zostaje wprowadzony w stan śpiączki, z którego wybudza się w różnych odstępach czasu, ale w osobach niczego nieświadomych nosicieli. Nasz bohater poznaje ich myśli, odbiera wrażenia zmysłowe, ale nie ma wpływu na podejmowane przez nich działania. Może tylko obserwować otaczającą ich obu jego i nosiciela rzeczywistość. Ponieważ wybudzenia mają miejsce w różnych miejscach i okresach w historii świata, trwają krócej bądź dłużej, ale następują chronologicznie, odbywamy wędrówkę począwszy od prehistorycznych jaskiń, przez najbardziej znaczące wydarzenia w kolejnych epokach, aż do współczesności. Oczywiście osoby nosicieli są także różne, spotykają ich odmienne koleje losu, bohater przeżywa mnóstwo ekscytujących, często niebezpiecznych przygód. Książka porywa wartkością i barwnością akcji, a ponadto jest napisana z dużym poczuciem humoru.

Po pięciu latach konfliktu planety Eiram i E’ronoh wreszcie mają szansę na zawarcie prawdziwego pokoju. Kiedy jednak rozchodzi się wieść o tragicznych wydarzeniach, które rozegrały się podczas podpisywania traktatu na Jedzie, przemoc na oblężonych światach wybucha na nowo. Współpracując z Jedi, dziedzice królewskich rodów obu planet – Phan-tu Zenn i Xiri A’lbaran – odkrywają dowody na to, że rozłam został zaaranżowany przez siły zewnętrzne, a wszystkie znaki na niebie i ziemi wskazują na to, iż stoi za nim tajemnicza Ścieżka Otwartej Dłoni, którą Jedi podejrzewają również o doprowadzenie do klęski na Jedzie. Kiedy liczy się każda chwila, a odpowiedzi wciąż brak, zakon musi pomóc w stłumieniu rozgorzałych na nowo zamieszek na Eiramie i E’ronoh oraz zinfiltrować szeregi Ścieżki.

Gdy wszystkie tropy prowadzą na Dalnę, Gella i jej sojusznicy przygotowują się do walki z wrogiem niepodobnym do żadnego, z jakim kiedykolwiek przyszło im się zmierzyć.
