Sweet Poison Wine (Incryptid, #0.06)
Seanan McGuire - 2013
Leaving their infant son with Jonathan's parents, the Healys are leaving Buckley Township, Michigan for the cosmopolitan wonders of the city of Chicago, where they can properly celebrate the fact that they managed to have a wedding without anybody winding up dead.Of course, these are the Healys we're talking about, and nothing in Chicago is exactly fitting the description provided by the Bureau of Tourism. From the gorgon-run hotel where they'll be staying to the swamp hags in the Chicago River, things are definitely business as usual, at least by the family definition of "usual."Bootlegger Arturo Gucciard has only just been introduced to the Healy definition of "usual," but he's going to need to get awfully familiar with it if he wants to live long enough to have a honeymoon of his own. And Jonathan, well. Jonathan just wants to have a normal honeymoon.Good luck with that.
Pantheon High, Volume 1
Paul Benjamin - 2007
Imagine a modern-day world in which multiple deities of all religions actually exist - Norse Gods roam Asgard, Greek Gods rule Mount Olympus, Egyptian Gods orbit around Ra, Japanese Gods bestow luck and wisdom - and their demigod children all attend the same private high school in Los Angeles! These students are the only ones who can stop the plans of the evil gods of several different pantheons who, after seeing their schemes defeated time and time again, have banded together to plunge the world into darkness!
