After defeating Lucifer and saving the world, Schuyler Van Allen woke up in an entirely different reality ... and has to do it all over again. Only this time it seems she'll have to do it alone. When Eoife shows up at Duchesne Academy, Schuyler at first thinks she must be yet another enemy. But Eoife is here to help: she's a member of an ages old secret society of heroes called the Palladins, and she has friends-- lots of them. United with another unlikely ally in Max Force, the group might just have a fighting chance-- if they can find and rescue Jack, get Max's Blue Blood powers back, solve the theory of chaos magic and take down a friend turned foe. Oh, and fight off an army of Silver Bloods and otherworldly monsters led by the devil himself.--Adapted from dust jacket.

Town, GG, Inuya, and Pepe are four horror game YouTubers who have never met. One day, they all receive a new console with a video game that claims to be the most terrifying created to date. The packagecomes from an unknown brand that invites them all to try this experience together. Once they start and meet each other inside the game, everything changes. The lights in all four of their houses go out, and without even noticing, things outside also change: they are no longer in their city; what used to be the street in front of their houses is now a dark wasteland. But there is one detail that the four of them notice: a wooden house with a red light over half a mile from each other.

Antsy and her friends at Eleanor West's School for Wayward Children learn that the place she came from, the Shop Where the Lost Things Go, could be a central hub for accessing other worlds and may be the key to helping students find lost doors. Though Antsy is cautious about returning to the Shop, she, Sumi, Cora, Kade, and Christopher are forced to make a quick decision to return after a school bully begins demanding she help her find a lost door.
