An all-new mystery for America's favorite necromancer! The last year has been a non-stop rollercoaster ride for Anita Blake, and it's nearing Halloween – peak time when you raise the dead for a living.

The attack must be the work of a master vampire – and with only two in St. Louis, one being Jean Claude, Anita knows right where to start. Venturing to Jean Claude's Circus of the Damned, Anita is confronted by a group of shape-shifters, a new master vampire named Yasmine and a giant snake that might be a god! It's all-new, high-octane action in this entry into the beloved Anita Blake universe! Mature

Ant Colony HC

The debut graphic novel from a dazzling newcomer with a singular, idiosyncratic style. Michael DeForge's brash, confident, undulating sensibility sent a shockwave through the comics world for its unique, fully formed aesthetic. Ant Colony follows the denizens of a black ant colony under attack from the nearby red ants. On the surface, it's the story of this war, the destruction of a civilization, and the ants' all-too-familiar desire to rebuild. Underneath, though, Ant Colony plumbs the deepest human concerns – loneliness, faith, love, apathy, and more. All of this is done with humor and sensitivity, exposing a world where spiders can wreak unimaginable amounts of havoc with a single gnash of their jaws..
