But nothing is what it seems, and something darker lies behind the spellbinding facade. * It is in the darkness where Alice will discover her true calling and her life, and those friends, forever changed.
Heather Nuhfer and P.C. MORRISsey team up in this fun story about game night with the Titans! The Titans have a regular game of Basements and Basilisks, but when the basement boss (Robin, of course) tries to make the game super fun by making it super-impossible to win, the team rebels. Their new BB is much more fun-and she actually lets them complete their quests, which is excellent motivation to keep playing. But the Boy Wonder begins to worry that the Titans will be trapped in their imaginations forever, going on endless, easy-breezy quests, neglecting their duties in Jump City. There might also be problems with the campaign's most important relic, the "Anklet of Extreme Crushing (and Chafing)," which Robin has tightly clasped to his leg.
WYOMING DOLL GN

In the vast, wild expanses of an America not yet tamed by the white man, the entwined destinies of two men and a little girl - a Sioux, a paleface and the little blonde doll who unites them beyond all their differences. Two families en route to Wyoming. An ambush by Crow warriors. A massacre - and two little girls missing. Logan, a young man who served as scout to the small convoy, brings the only other survivor, old Giuseppe, back to civilization, and makes him a promise: he'll find the girls. Meanwhile, Salmon Leap, a young Lakota warrior turned away by the father of the woman he loves, seeks a glorious death - and finds Sharon, one of the two girls.
