TO THE STARS is the first book in a trilogy concerning an intrepid group of space explorers in 2107. Harry Irons dreams of escaping an over-crowded Earth by working for one of the giant corporations. He gets his wish and soon enough finds himself struggling to survive on an alien world.Looks can be deceiving, the same is true for reputations As the head of his family, Robert Beckford, the Earl of Masten, was accustomed to dealing with various problems his siblings had caused of one sort or another. However he wasn’t prepared when his cad of brother ruined and then abandoned a young lady. To right the wrong, Robert married the girl himself; but his chivalry only went so far. He didn’t want a wife, and most certainly not a scandalous one. So after repeating his vows, he sent her packing, off to a secluded estate and expected her to stay put. After years of mistreatment at the hands of her family, Lydia was prepared to be an accommodating wife; but her rigid and unforgiving husband asked too much of her. After languishing for years in her opulent prison, Lydia leaves her country estate for the glamour and excitement of London—and unfortunately her husband’s path. Views: 701
This box set contains the first three novels in New York Times Bestselling Author, J.A. Cipriano's the Lillim Callina Chronicles: Kill it With Magic, The Hatter is Mad, and Fairy Tale.
Book 1: Kill it With Magic
Lillim Callina used to fight monsters for a living. That was before she broke up with her demonic boyfriend and fled from the city in the clouds to settle in Orange County, California.
How was she to know one piece of candy would have an ancient, unstoppable dragon kicking in her front door and demanding she help him take over the world? Or that it would get her stuck in the middle of a turf war between a werewolf king and a millennium old vampire?
Now, if Lillim wants to get out of this mess alive, she'll have to fight some monsters. Hopefully, she's not too rusty...
Book 2: The Hatter is Mad
Why did a billion year old god have to go and kidnap Lillim Callina's best friend right when she was just starting to get her life back together after Caleb I'm-a-huge-jerk Oznek left her without so much as a pity glance?
He must have known she needed to vent her frustrations on someone's face.
Armed with her trusty swords, Isis and Set, Lillim is going to track him down, even if she has to fight her way through an entire orcish horde, relive the worst moment of her life, and talk to her mother.
The only problem is, to stop him, she may have to forgive Caleb too.
Book 3: Fairy Tale
Lillim Callina knew, just knew, Kishi Al Akeer that was capital-T-trouble. Still, somehow, someway, she let herself be talked into venturing into the heart of Fairy.
How was she to know that Kishi would upset the balance between the summer and winter courts and start a civil war that could threaten to unbalance Fairy's seat of power?
No, it was completely reasonable to expect that this would allow the Celtic death god Crom Cruach to rise and try to seize Fairy for himself.
Now the only way to save Fairy is to kill a death god. How hard can that be?
Readers who enjoyed The Dresden Files or The Iron Druid Chronicles will likely enjoy this paranormal adventure.

Interview with the Author
Q - So, what makes the Lillim Callina Chronicles series special? **
A - The urban fantasy series is my take on the genre after a decade playing pen and paper RPGs. At its core you'll find a story about a young girl who must come to terms with not only her powers, but every kind of monster imaginable from vampires and werewolves to psychotic demons. I was once told this paranormal action adventure thriller was an over-the-top, insanely fast-paced, urban fantasy tale with EXTREME ACTION where you never quite know who is going to do what.
The Lillim Callina Chronicles books are a great mix of genres, set in a slightly dystopian fantasy world full of supernatural factions that keep things interesting.
Q - Do I have to read these books in order?
A - Not necessarily. While I recommend readers start with Alone in the Dark or Kill it with Magic. The series is designed in such a way that a reader could start with Hardboiled if they so choose. I have also been told that some readers actually prefer to start with The Hatter is Mad, although I'm not quite sure if that would work. The sequence of novels is:
- Alone in the Dark (short prequel)
- Wardbreaker
- Kill it with Magic
- The Hatter is Mad
- Fairy Tale
- Pursuit
- Hardboiled
- Mind Games
