by Lília Maybe our most surprising bestseller in April was the One Piece Card Game: Adventure in Kami's Island booster, unfortunately already sold out. Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir and Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman were again bestsellers across all three stores. We had [...]
Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot. Only a few [...]

As posted on their website: “Ilona Andrews” is the pseudonym for a husband-and-wife writing team. Ilona is a native-born Russian and Gordon is a former communications sergeant in the U.S. Army.

by Damla February might be a short month, but it was packed with some strong bestsellers. At the top of the list in all our stores once again, we have both installations of Rachel Reid’s hockey romance about Hollander and Rozanov, Heated Rivalry and The Long Game. This is certainly no [...]
