    Summary

    Josh Dun signs up to volunteer at the local animal shelter to fill the quiet parts of his life. He doesn't expect to meet Tyler Joseph, the guarded vet tech with a weird thing about leashes being coiled correctly, who glares at everyone like they owe him money.

    Tyler didn't need anyone messing up his routine, especially not someone who names every dog after a snack food and talks to them like they're coworkers. But there Josh was, all soft smiles and chaotic kindness, a new hair color every week. He makes the shelter feel like something other than a place where things come to break.

    Tyler keeps pushing him away, but Josh keeps showing up. And against his better judgement, Tyler slowly wishes he'd stay.

    Summary

    Tyler Joseph and his best friend Jenna Black have been chosen as tributes for the 21st annual Glorious Games, a livestreamed death-match in which only one will survive, and he knows it’s not an accident.

    Tyler’s been on the Bishops’ radar since he was caught spreading messaging that went against Dema and its sacred Vialist religion, and he’s certain that the Games are Nico’s—and his family’s—chance to finally get rid of him.

    He has one objective: keeping Jenna alive. But the Games are not what they seem, and Tyler is soon thrust into a strange and eerie world unlike anything he could’ve prepared for.

    And then there’s Josh Dun: the kind, friendly tribute from Keons’s district that can’t seem to leave Tyler alone.

    Summary

    Escape is a black car left idling in a gas station parking lot just off the highway. It shines, dark as sin, and Clancy waits until he is sure no one is watching him before he breaks into a run so bold, so daring that he’s almost certain someone will catch his arm before he’s even made it out of their reach. But he’s been slipping towards the edge of the awning’s safety ever since he got here. Waiting for just the right moment to flee.

    And they aren’t expecting this, not today of all days. When the sun is bright and dangerous. And the summer’s heat is bearing down like God’s wrathful right hand.

     

    Especially not when they’re preparing to feed.
