In order to live on in this turbulent world, take revenge for her family, and seek justice for the lives of all 118 members of her village, Lin Wanyue enlists in the army with her twin brother’s name, Lin Feixing, and vows to kill every single Hun under the sun. In the imperial palace, the Empress passes into Heaven, leaving behind the sixteen-year-old Eldest Princess and eight-year-old Crown Prince, who must now depend on each other to survive. The other Seigniors are older than the Crown Prince. They look upon the throne with covetous eyes, and the siblings find themselves in a precarious position. When Lin Wanyue gets her first period, she fears her secret will be exposed. Meanwhile, after the death of Empress Li Qingcheng, her daughter Li Xian and son Li Zhu navigate the complex political landscape of the imperial court. Li Xian allies with Seignior Qi Li Zhen to secure the throne for the young Li Zhu, in exchange for Seignior Qi’s future demands. However, Seignior Chu Li Xuan, a rival, is spying on their plots. Their destinies become intertwined when Princess Li Xian arrives at a military camp with the intention of pulling the strings so that her brother can succeed to the throne.

A natural moat called the Luo river split the great land into two: Jing of the north, and Wei of the south. One was a Prince of the grass plains who had no worries or sorrow. One was a lawful Princess who received exclusive favour of the Emperor. A war turned the Prince of the grass plains into an orphan. Hidden away for a decade, she had plans to become a sycophantic official, manipulating the enemy kingdom into chaos, only to find herself appointed as Fuma at the Chionglin banquet. She must find another way to make them pay.

Six hundred years of immortal friendship. One bite that changes everything. Ancient vampires Aster Castelmar and Sylvia Maroven have been inseparable for six centuries. They’ve survived inquisitions, wars, collapsing empires, the industrial revolution… but now, they face their most challenging obstacle New York City rental prices. After decades of spending, they’re broke, unemployed, and they need money fast. So they do what any sensible immortal criminals would do, and pivot to white collar crime. Their plan is embed themselves in a tech startup, manipulate a billionaire oil heir, take his money, and vanish. It’s a great scheme, fullproof like all of their previous adventures. Well, it would have been foolproof, if Sylvia hadn't bitten her. The bite should have been meaningless. A joke between lifelong friends. Instead, it triggers an ancient vampire bond meant for lifelong partners, leaving Aster unraveling… and begging for more.

奴は時折、他人を騙している 神の居場所が危険区域となっている東京。時永に請われて、「薬」を提供し始めた帯川＝ヲロカピ。その行動が正しいか判断のつかない帯川は、図書館へ赴く。ところがそこには、谷古宇と暮らす少女・やえこが潜んでいた。彼女の能力で、図書館は混沌状態へ陥り……？ 混沌の底には何がある？　江野朱美による渾身作、第8巻。

In an age of confusion, fear, and loss, Hanif Abdurraqib's is a voice that matters. Whether he's attending a Bruce Springsteen concert the day after visiting Michael Brown's grave, or discussing public displays of affection at a Carly Rae Jepsen show, he writes with a poignancy and magnetism that resonates profoundly. In the wake of the nightclub attacks in Paris, he recalls how he sought refuge as a teenager in music, at shows, and wonders whether the next generation of young Muslims will not be afforded that opportunity now. While discussing the everyday threat to the lives of black Americans, Abdurraqib recounts the first time he was ordered to the ground by police officers: for attempting to enter his own car. In essays that have been published by the New York Times, MTV, and Pitchfork, among others—along with original, previously unreleased essays—Abdurraqib uses music and culture as a lens through which to view our world, so that we might better understand ourselves, and in so doing proves himself a bellwether for our times.
