Summary
Calliope Mondegrene has always felt like a bit of an alien among her fellow humans. A nerdy self-proclaimed loser sleepwalking through life in a Bostonian triplex, her introversion seems to be boundless, to the point where it leads her to avoid social interaction at the parties she's forced to attend--by getting really, really, high.
Too high, it turns out, when she sees--and is seen by--something beyond her understanding that, for some unfathomable reason, takes an interest in her sad little life.

Summary
Remembrance of the Shadow, Gwyneth, hewn into the Scadutree.
Much as Godwyn became the scion of the Golden Lineage, so too did the eldest daughter of Queen Marika carry a curse wrought of the original sin. Gwyneth was the sole Empyrean of Godfrey’s line, but the darkness within her flesh and the visions born of her connection to the Scadutree drove her mother to imprison her within the Land of Shadow. And yet, she who saw the fragility of Order, who grieved the plight of those rejected and abandoned by the grace of gold, still fought endlessly to avert the fate imposed upon her kin and the Lands Between.
After all, wherever shadows are cast, there is also light.
---
A daughter is born of the union between Marika and Godfrey, an Empyrean with memories of a past life and of the future to come.

Summary
Willow Schnee is running away from home.
She has no more reason to stay, and although she’s never struck out on her own before, she would do anything to avoid spending another day under the same roof as her husband. When her plans to pay her way aboard a small sailboat fall through, she must seize the only other chance offered to her: a mighty pirate warship, armed to the teeth and crewed by murderers and thieves. Sailing with pirates is a hard life, and on top of that the captain clearly has it out for Willow—but she’s no Jacques.
That’s a bar even Raven Branwen can clear.
