New Romantic Fantasy from the best-selling author of Wicked Fox and Once Upon a K-Prom.

Seventeen-year-old junior class vice president Grace Bak has her entire future all mapped out. With plans to become a doctor like both her parents, Grace has her sights set on Boston University’s intensive science summer program–which will put her on the fast track to medical school.

When she’s not at school or studying, Grace writes and illustrates her webcomic, Sun God, inspired by the Korean myth of Haemosu about two teenage gods trapped in human form who are cursed to live in the modern world, and perhaps worst of all, to attend public high school. She started the comic as a way to honor her grandmother who used to tell her all the old myths before she died. Grace never expected the comic to go viral, but it has, and she’s still spinning from the excitement of having thousands of readers. But somehow the power of all those readers has conjured the real Haemosu and now it’s up to Grace to get him back to his own realm.

As Grace and Hae try to figure out a way for Hae to return home, the two become close. Hae challenges everything Grace has ever believed about herself, even making her braver in the face of her near-crippling anxiety.

But Hae isn’t the only god to find themselves suddenly trapped in the mortal realm and now a battle is on the horizon. Grace and Hae fight side by side, but in the end, will their burgeoning love keep them together or tear them apart?

Miyoung and Jihoon are picking up the pieces of their broken lives following the deaths of Miyoung’s mother, Yena, and Jihoon’s grandmother. The events at the end of Wicked Fox have upended the forces that govern life and death and there are supernatural entities lurking in the background that will stop at nothing to right their world. With the support of their friend Somin, and their frenemy, Junu, Miyoung and Jihoon might just have a shot at normalcy. But Miyoung is getting sicker and sicker by the day and her friends don’t know how to save her. With few options remaining, Junu has an idea but it might require the ultimate sacrifice and, unfortunately, Junu isn’t known for his generosity. In Vicious Spirits, Kat Cho delivers another beguiling and addictive read full of otherworldly dangers and romance. “When danger lurks from beyond the grave, supporting characters find themselves in the limelight in this enthralling sequel to Wicked Fox. . .Once again Cho artfully balances Korean-inspired folktales, K-drama motifs, emotionally complex characters, and unpredictable plot twists. . . This folktale fantasy will not disappoint.” —Kirkus

This addictive fantasy-romance set in modern-day Seoul is an international bestseller and Entertainment Weekly called it “…an utterly original take on the young-adult fantasy.” Eighteen-year-old Gu Miyoung has a secret–she’s a gumiho, a nine-tailed fox who must devour the energy of men in order to survive. Because so few believe in the old tales anymore, and with so many evil men no one will miss, the modern city of Seoul is the perfect place to hide and hunt. Miyoung’s life is upended when she kills a dokkaebi, a murderous goblin, just to save the life of a human boy. But after Miyoung saves Jihoon’s life, the two develop a tenuous friendship that blooms into romance forcing Miyoung to choose between her immortal life and Jihoon’s.
