A storm brews in the illustrious town of Elsinore, Massachusetts, and no one knows it yet. Not Hamilton “Ham” Dane III, who’s angry because it’s only been one month since the untimely death of his billionaire father, and Ham’s uncle, Claude, has already taken control of the family’s empire. And that’s not even to mention the blooming romance between Claude and Ham's mother, Gretchen. Not Harry Yeoh, who’s desperately in love with his best friend but finding it more and more difficult to hide as dark secrets threaten to destroy their relationship. Not Lia Polonio, who’s struggling to find the balance between her feelings and the demands of her controlling father and older brother. And certainly not Rosie Chan or Gil Stern, who think they’ve just landed the internship that will get them into Harvard. But all it will take is one mysterious message—a call for revenge from Ham’s late father—for Elsinore to descend into chaos. And once the downward spiral begins, there’s no guarantee that everyone will make it out alive. A bold retelling of Hamlet for a modern audience, Allegra M. Walker’s sophomore novel puts a fresh new spin on Shakespeare’s classic story. Poignant, dramatic, and often darkly humorous, HamLIT is guaranteed to delight teens and adults alike.

It isn't every day that you bump into legendary monsters, ancient witches, and stoic elves on your walk to school. But as fourteen-year-old Abbie is about to find out, the world is a lot more exciting-and dangerous-than she thinks. Abbie Matsuda-Walsh has never thought much of herself-or of her dull, directionless life. But that life is about to burn down to the ground. In one disastrous night, her family, her home, and her sense of reality are shattered. And it's all because Goldie-an ancient necromancer with seemingly limitless power-has made her his target. Soon, Abbie is on the run, pursued by a terrifying army of vampires, werewolves, and more. Desperate to protect herself, she teams up with Ariadne, a fierce elf from another universe, and her band of elementals. Ariadne insists that Abbie, too, is an elemental-a human with unique magical gifts-and that despite all her doubts, she has immense power. Enough power, that is, to defeat Goldie. Abbie has a choice: hide from the danger that will haunt her forever or use her newfound abilities to avenge her family. But does she have the courage to fight the real-life demons that stalk her at night? Or will her own personal demons get the better of her? The worlds of fantasy and horror collide in Allegra M. Walker's bone-chilling debut novel, a fast-paced, introspective tale of magical heroes, grinning villains, and grotesque monsters. The Dead Travel Fast is an unforgettable fantasy adventure that will thrill adult and teen readers alike. Perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman and Ransom Riggs!
