Summary
“That’s all demons do.” The way Jinu had looked at her had been lacerating. Furious with her for not understanding the truth, and furious with himself that it was the truth at all. “Feel.”
At the time, Rumi had scoffed, and dismissed the idea as just a demon's attempt to give himself a justification to be what he was. Demons were evil, pure and simple, with nothing more to it. But now, since the Honmoon was sealed, since all other demons were banished, and since Jinu sacrificed himself, she’s forced to shoulder that there isn’t a single other being left on the planet who understands what it means to feel so deeply that the world frays around you.
But Mira and Zoey are trying. God knows they’re trying.

Summary
Every resident of the town of Silvercloud knows that something isn’t quite right about their home. It’s an ancient instinct, a drive for self-preservation, for knowing when you’re being hunted. They may not consciously know that their town was a nexus for all kinds of the supernatural, but something still drove them to check the locks every night.
But that’s why Ruby wants to be a Hunter. Why she wants to help her family keep her town safe against the wraiths, the ghosts, and above all else, the vampires.
The Schnee bloodline have preyed upon the citizens of Silvercloud since they helped build the town itself, and Ruby knows that the next scion, Weiss, isn't going to be any different from her predecessors. No matter how much she seems like she wants to be better, or how she shows a level of restraint that should break her just to attempt, deep down she was just as monstrous as all the others of her kind.
…right?

Summary
As the harsh rule of the Atlesian Empire begins to crush the once free land of Remnant, faith in the gods and spirits to protect the people begins to flicker and falter under the onslaught of cold steel, with even the spiritual city of Haven falling under their might. But it is the desperation of a people who will not be silenced so easily that, in a moment where they fear prayers may go unanswered, they instead bring forth a chorus to sing.
It's been five hundred years since the ancient song called all four Seasons together, with never more than one or two needed at a time in the centuries since, but as Atlas seeks to wash away what makes Mistral and Vale unique under the code of its Rise Of Reason the threat against the free world is great enough to need what hasn't been needed since the Night Of The Black Witch.
And so, driven to act and answer a song carried on the wind and hummed in their dreams, four strangers who remember each other must learn to control the gifts that make them something out of legend, and the ones that come with falling in love over and over and over again.

Summary
Work as a prosecutor isn't well-paying or glamorous, but Ruby Rose is determined to fight against the horrific crimewave infecting the city of Vale with all of her intelligence and energy. Yet as she throws away small fish after small fish, the biggest target in her sights, Weiss Schnee, head of the Vale branch of the Schnee Crime Family, dances around her and eludes her grasp.
But she's gotten close a few too many times for Weiss to be comfortable with, as the Ice Queen of Vale finds herself more and more enamoured with the thrill of being chased by the one person in the city she's willing to consider might be her equal. -

Summary
All Ruby had wanted was to prove she was a good enough engineer to see the stars. All Yang had wanted was to enjoy each morning having new constellations outside the window. All Weiss had wanted was to leave good marks in the few corners of the galaxy her father hadn't tainted. And all Blake had wanted was to challenge a system that oppressed her people across all the core worlds.
When the 'Beacon' suffers a horrific enough malfunction that those aboard are forced to leap into escape pods and eject onto a world far on the edge of civilised space, the few who make it to the surface alive are faced with having to work together just to survive a wilderness they don't understand, in a forest that somehow seems haunted with every ghost they never wanted to face, but also might be hiding everything they might come to want.
