The Latest in Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy

Celebrating Independence Day - Paranormal Style!

Canada Day just passed for us yesterday and with Independence Day quickly approaching, I thought what better way to celebrate the freedom and independence of a country than to read some books that deal with ensuring safety for all and the struggle for power in a community!

Of course, since this is the Into the Night column, you won’t find your classic story of patriotism here. Instead you’ll encounter a supernatural twist that may make you think, how does this even relate? But if you look closely though, all these characters are all fighting for one thing – peace and safety for all. Whether they are a person of high ranking or just someone who has a strong responsibility for the world they live in, these characters fight for freedom and peace and that’s something all proud members of society can agree with. Some of the events that occur in these stories are so bad that they’ll leave you feeling grateful for the freedom we enjoy today. But of course, if there weren’t any distress or threats, there also wouldn’t be any fireworks when the world is ultimately saved in the end.

So in honor of these triumphs, what are some of your favorite “saving the world” stories?

After becoming the queen of Ashland’s underworld, Gin now carries several responsibilities on her shoulders, one being ensuring the safety of

About: The next thrilling book in Jennifer Estep’s New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling Elemental Assassin series—“an extraordinary series.…One of the most intriguing heroines in the genre” (Romantic Times Book Reviews).

Keep your friends close but your enemies within stabbing distance.
 One important lesson I’ve learned in the assassination business is that to be the best you have to roll with the punches. Now that I’m queen of Ashland’s underworld—by default, not by choice—a lot more punches are being thrown my way. But I suppose that’s the price of victory for taking down some of the underworld’s top dogs. Good thing I have my Ice and Stone magic to help me survive my volatile new position. Just when I think things are finally settling down, someone tries to murder me during a hush-hush underworld meeting. But the real surprise is how strangely familiar my shadowy assailant seems to be.

My job is to maintain order among killers, crooks, and thieves, and soon I’m embroiled in a bloody game where the ability to keep secrets could be the greatest superpower of all. My enemies have all sharpened their knives and laid their traps, waiting for me to fall. But this Spider weaves her own webs of death…
