Ren's quest to dismantle Kathor's corrupt system comes to a head as political machinations and a mysterious disease take hold of the city in this edge-of-your-seat conclusion to the "pulse-pounding" (Publishers Weekly, on A Door in the Dark) New York Times bestselling Waxways series. After taking control of House Brood, Ren and Theo dreamed of using their newfound influence to change the rest of Kathor, but now they find their efforts being countered by the other great houses, who have no interest in a world where they enjoy less power. No one understands that better than the Tin'Vori siblings. The return of their ancestral home was a decade in the making, but they're eager to keep rising from the ashes. Nevelyn begins researching House Brood--and ends up face-to-face with an enemy that's already slouching toward the gates of the city. The one enemy no one can avoid: a plague. The victims experience strange bruising, an unquenchable thirst, and a temporary disruption in magic. When doc

Euny Hong recounts how South Korea vaulted itself into the twenty-first century, becoming a global leader in business, technology, education, and pop culture. Featuring lively, in-depth reporting and
