Teenaged Sabino is rebellious, full of life, and fond of rap music-- all normal traits in a word that's far from normal. In Italy's cities, reawakened Saints of the Christian tradition roam as superheroes in the fight against evil. The pontiff, a mysterious young man at the head of a new religion, brought them back to life. Under his guidance, the Saints freed the world from the threat of Luciferals, diabolical and bloodthirsty creatures. But the pontiff may have ulterior motives-- something Sabino only discovers by being on the wrong side of the new church's operatives. When Sabino finds a holy relic, he's arrested and condemned, only to be rescued by the Martyrs, superpowered members of a secret society fighting to save humanity from something worse than the Luciferals. The apocalypse may be coming, and Sabino is now right in the middle of the fight to save the world.

If you're Charlie Chase, you dive headfirst into an interdimensional adventure. Charlie knows her calling is a weighty one, but she trusts her mentor's orders: Travel to another dimension, fix the tear, and get home to do it all over again. But when she gets stuck on an alternate Earth, she has to turn to the most unexpected of allies: a younger, more eccentric, more infamous version of the brilliant mind that sent her on her mission. This version of Vera Baum is as much socialite as scientist, who seems to embrace the notion that curiosity killed the cat, in the way that means she's determined to use up all nine of her lives blasting through a kaleidoscope of genre-bending realities. Things are going to get a lot worse before they get better, especially when they're pursued by reality-eating parasites and a biomechanical hound hellbent on killing Vera"--

WHEN IRONHEART ROARS MERIDION FALLS After enduring the hellish nightmare of the Pits, Raggy Maggy is finally moving up in the world: up to the floating city of Meridion. Determined to claim her heritage and fight for the rights of all Moon Children to be recognized as citizens, Maggy is disheartened to be treated as more of a spectacle than a person. As her friends and allies Lucian and Ghost restore their own position in Meridion as heirs of Madeline d'Arc, the great inventor (and notorious traitor), Ghost is coerced into a marriage negotiation that would rip him from Maggy. But now that Maggy has found her way, she's not going to let anyone take those she loves from her: not rotting undead below ground nor affluent bureaucrats in the sky. If she has to face down a dragon, Maggy will protect her own. Even if it brings an entire city to the ground.

In the slums of BrightStone, Moon Children are worth less than the scrap they collect to survive. It doesn't matter that these abandoned half-breeds are part-Meridian with their ancestors hailing from the technologically advanced wonder that floats above the once-thriving, now plague-ridden city. Instead they are rejected by both societies and forced to live on the outskirts of civilization, joining clans simply to stay alive.
