Unstoppable Liv Beaufont Boxed Set Two
Sarah Noffke - 2019
But fighting for justice is always worth it.
Continue the exciting adventure and magical intrigue of The Unstoppable Liv Beaufont with books 5 - 8 in this Urban Fantasy series today!
The Loyal Friend:
The truth would change everything.
But no one knows it.
Except for Liv Beaufont and those who have been hiding it for centuries.
Fueled to uncover the facts and restore the House of Seven to what it’s supposed to be, Liv starts searching for resources. However, the Council has different plans for her. They put her on a case that is sure to keep her busy…if not get her killed.
Werewolves are real. And they have their own secrets.
Liv ventures to the village where werewolves originated and learns who she can trust and who needs to be taken out. But doing so won’t be easy.
And just when Liv thinks she’s finally conquered evil, an old nemesis comes back to haunt her.
The Stubborn Advocate:
Some people won’t rest until they get to the bottom of things.
That’s Liv Beaufont.
And some want to kill her for her persistence.
To try and keep Liv from finding out the truth, Adler brings back an ancient evil that the Warriors exterminated long ago. Now, alone, Liv will have to battle monsters so dark, they frighten even the strongest magical creatures.
But she can’t be deterred from her quest for the truth.
While trying to take down evil beasts, Liv also works to uncover why mortals can’t see magic. Her journey takes her to the last place she wants to go: where her parents died.
What she finds, changes everything.
The Unrelenting Fighter:
When saving the world is your job, it’s impossible to get a day off.
Liv Beaufont wouldn’t want one anyway.
It’s a good thing because being Father Time’s only employee is demanding.
Liv can hardly believe she has to carry a chicken around while fighting villains. However, the chicken is supremely important. She just doesn’t know how. Or what the bird wants to eat…
And then there’s Sophia’s dragon egg.
Whoever stole it is going to pay big time when Liv gets ahold of them. In the meantime, Subner helps Liv to track down the elf who made Inexorabilis. Unlocking the memories Liv’s mother sealed into the sword is crucial.
What she finds is supposed to change everything.
Mortals have never been more at risk.
Adler Sinclair wants them gone, once and for all.
However, there’s a long list of things Liv Beaufont won’t allow to happen.
First, mortals can’t die. Secondly, the brainwashing has to stop. And thirdly, the person who killed her family is going to pay. Badly.
The stakes have never been higher.

Ten years later, he's finally going to find out why. Ever since he staggered out of the darkness into a crowd of police and press reporters, Daryl Elliot has been afraid of something he has absolutely no memory of. Afraid of whatever happened to him in those two missing weeks. Now sixteen, Daryl has grown up a loner, with few friends, fewer ambitions, and a burning desire to go unnoticed by the rest of the world. All that changes, however, when he begins to manifest telekinetic powers during gym class. Daryl begins to uncover the secrets of his lost two weeks, and just how far from average he truly is. A threat is coming. The biggest threat the Earth has ever faced. Galactic warlord, the World Killer, is bringing his death-planet to our solar system, intending to strip our world bare. And Daryl is one of just three people with the power to stop it. With days to go before the attack, Daryl must learn to work with two super-powered strangers, master his own abilities, and prepare himself to lead the others into battle.

It'll take a miracle. World Killer is a standalone young adult science fiction adventure from Barry J. Hutchison, author of the internationally bestselling Space Team series.
