A New York Times Bestseller Now in paperback, the second edge-of-your-seat
installment in the New York Times bestselling series by Amie Kaufman and Jay
Kristoff, called stylistically mesmerizing and out-of-this-world-awesome by
reviewers. Moving to a space station at the edge of the galaxy was always
going to be the death of Hanna's social life. Nobody said it might actually
get her killed. The sci-fi saga that began with the breakout bestseller
Illuminae continues on board the Jump Station Heimdall, where two new
characters will confront the next wave of the BeiTech assault. Hanna is the
station captain's pampered daughter; Nik the reluctant member of a notorious
crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life
aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, little do they know that Kady
Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the
Kerenza invasion. When an elite BeiTech strike team invades the station, Hanna
and Nik are thrown together to defend their home. But alien predators are
picking off the station residents one by one, and a malfunction in the
station's wormhole means the space-time continuum might be ripped in two
before dinner. Soon Hanna and Nik aren't just fighting for their own survival;
the fate of everyone on the Hypatia-and possibly the known universe-is in
their hands. But relax. They've totally got this. They hope. Once again told
through a compelling dossier of emails, IMs, classified files, transcripts,
and schematics, Gemina raises the stakes of the Illuminae Files, hurling
readers into an enthralling new story that will leave them breathless. Praise

From bestselling author duo Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff comes the exciting
finale in the trilogy that broke the mold and has been called stylistically
mesmerizing and out-of-this-world-awesome. Kady, Ezra, Hanna, and Nik narrowly
escaped with their lives from the attacks on Heimdall station and now find
themselves crammed with 2,000 refugees on the container ship, Mao. With the
jump station destroyed and their resources scarce, the only option is to
return to Kerenza--but who knows what they'll find seven months after the
invasion? Meanwhile, Kady's cousin, Asha, survived the initial BeiTech assault
and has joined Kerenza's ragtag underground resistance. When Rhys--an old
flame from Asha's past--reappears on Kerenza, the two find themselves on
opposite sides of the conflict. With time running out, a final battle will be
waged on land and in space, heros will fall, and hearts will be broken.
A ruthless young assassin continues her journey for revenge in this new epic fantasy from New York Times bestselling author Jay Kristoff. Mia Corvere, destroyer of empires, has found her place among the Blades of Our Lady of Blessed Murder, but many in the Red Church ministry do not believe she has earned it. Her position is precarious, and she's still no closer to exacting revenge for the brutal death of her family. But after a deadly confrontation with an old enemy, Mia begins to suspect the motives of the Red Church itself. When it is announced that Consul Scaeva and Cardinal Duomo will be making a rare public appearance at the conclusion of the grand games in Godsgrave, Mia defies the Church and sells herself into slavery for a chance to fulfill the promise she made on the day she lost everything. Upon the sands of the arena, Mia finds new allies, bitter rivals, and more questions about her strange affinity for the shadows. But as conspiracies unfold, secrets are revealed and the body count rises within the collegium walls, Mia will be forced to choose between her loyalties and her revenge.
