For boys and girls who love Minecraft, a graphic novel adventure told through 750 images to transport young readers into the world of the game they love most. With the skeleton armies gone, trading is a breeze and life returns to somewhat normal for the kids who decided to stay at the outpost. Logan, Maddy, Brooklyn, Cloud, and Zoe should be enjoying the peace and quiet at Battle Station Prime, but there’s one thing that keeps them up at night: The threat of the Dragonmaster’s revenge. The Ender Dragon egg had been a carefully guarded secret until it hatched and the young, powerful, dragon inside imprinted on an evil sorcerer named Borin. They know that it’s only a matter of time before this dangerous partnership threatens their existence. Even The Prime Knight knows that he can’t stop the mighty forces that are about to be unleashed. He recruits the kids of Battle Station Prime to form a Dragon Alliance and help him save the world from the kind of destruction that could change the realm forever. The fierce, young warriors set out on a perilous journey to The End to fight for everything they love. As they follow The Prime Knight into the greatest quest of their lives, the ties that once bound them together in battle will be pushed to the limit and they’ll be forced to make choices they never expected to make.

A New Breed of Hero Redefined

In the year 2062, technology has dominated the way humanity operates. Tethered to high-tech machines and gadgets, this fusion of efficiency and intellect has made our lives even easier. But when a mysterious company releases a new invention that allows people to control the technology around them, humanity seems to regain power... or so they thought.

Meanwhile, Alec Everly is more focused on the people around him - specifically, his relationship with Liam Brooks, the lead Lieutenant of Canada's Emerald Berets. Alec is infatuated with Liam and will do anything to further their relationship. But the price he'll pay may be more than he bargained for.

Alec is in for the fight of his life on the island of Candelario, where technology is in short supply, but the darkest impulses of humanity are not. Dominated by a mind-controlled gang known as Los Furiosos, Candelario may be where Alec makes his last stand. As they hunt Alec for reasons unknown to him, the evil gang won't stop until he's caught. And on this primal island, Alec must fight with every breath to stay alive... or lose a lifetime of happiness with the man he loves.

In this first installment of Andre L. Carr's debut novel, Rise of the Fay, experience a coming-of-age story that encompasses one of the first LGBT characters in this genre who grew from underestimated to a force to be reckoned with - a genuinely new breed of hero redefined.

Shay’s sister, Hana, is involved in Black Lives Matter, but Shay doesn't think that's for her. After experiencing a powerful protest, though, Shay decides some rules are worth breaking. She starts wearing an armband to school in support of the Black Lives movement. Soon everyone is taking sides. And she is given an ultimatum. Shay is scared to do the wrong thing (and even more scared to do the right thing), but if she doesn't face her fear, she'll be forever tripping over the next hurdle. Now that’s trouble, for real.

"The energy. The clarity. The beauty. Elisabet Velasquez brings it all. . . . Her voice is FIRE!"--NYT bestselling and award-winning author Jacqueline Woodson
 
An unforgettable, torrential, and hopeful debut young adult novel-in-verse that redefines what it means to "make it," for readers of Nicholasa Mohr and Elizabeth Acevedo.

Sarai is a first-generation Puerto Rican question asker who can see with clarity the truth, pain, and beauty of the world both inside and outside her Bushwick apartment. Together with her older sister, Estrella, she navigates the strain of family traumas and the systemic pressures of toxic masculinity and housing insecurity in a rapidly gentrifying Brooklyn. Sarai questions the society around her, her Boricua identity, and the life she lives with determination and an open heart, learning to celebrate herself in a way that she has long been denied.

When We Make It is a love letter to anyone who was taught to believe that they would not make it. To those who feel their emotions before they can name them. To those who still may not have all the language but they have their story. Velasquez' debut novel is sure to leave an indelible mark on all who read it.
