Book Description
In this dark epic fantasy that crackles with sinister sorcery and eldritch energy, ancient evil and prophecy collide as an unsuspecting medieval kingdom, still recovering from a hellish oppression that devastated the land a thousand years earlier, is about to be plunged once more into nightmare. The end of the world is nigh! Sharn is the insane descendant of a people who were once forcibly interbred with demons from an extra-dimensional netherworld that's separated from ours by the thinnest of sorcerous veils... ...a veil that was once torn asunder in an accident of sorcery, opening a rent through which the demons poured and overran the land,enslaving the population... ...demons that were eventually driven back beyond the veil by a noble wizard who foretold that one day the demons would return, and so would he. Evil stirs in the land, and demons covet the world of mortals! Captured by knights who have hunted the hybrid demonspawn to near-extinction, Sharn is imprisoned in the dank depths of the royal castle, where he becomes caught up in the nefarious plans of a scheming king's chancellor who is secretly practicing the darkest of magical arts. The queen has just given birth to a son, kicking off the fulfillment of ancient prophecy. Sharn, somehow granted a reprieve from his madness by the newborn prince, kidnaps the royal heir and escapes the castle. They wait impatiently behind a wall that is about to be torn down by black sorcery! And the hunt begins, as Sharn flees across a countryside where every hand is turned against him, heading toward destiny. Now, a king’s evil chancellor schemes to reopen the Veil and once again unleash the demons. The world’s only hope of salvation is an insane boy, himself the descendant of demonic/human hybrids, and the newborn baby he’s kidnapped. keywords: dark fantasy, epic fantasy, demons, mutants, sorcery, wizards, kings and queens, novel

Flames of the Sun: A Novel of Dark Fantasy for fans of Jay Lake and K.W. Jeter
Author: Scott Reeves
Publisher: Aether Wind
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
Flames of the Sun is a dark/Gothic/steampunk fantasy set against a bleak, moldering landscape of brass and iron where the sun is a literally a gigantic furnace swinging around high above the world at the end of an enormous shaft that rises from deep within the planet's core. But the sun has gone dark. The sun's fire was extinguished a thousand years earlier, by creatures that both abhor and absorb light and other forms of radiant energy. They literally drank the sun into darkness. This clockwork world of iron and brass is running down as the planet creaks away into the silent darkness of starless space. Acid and ash rain from the sky, the ground rusts, society deteriorates and life decays. The endless night is ruled by creatures that have crept forth from the labyrinthine underground catacombs, creatures that feed on mutant humans who carry the sun spark within them. Now, a young girl named Embra escapes her underground prison and flees across the crumbling world, bent upon a holy quest to reignite the darkened sun, returning daylight to the world and regenerating life. Her quest will reveal the long-forgotten true nature of her world, and lead her and her species to a fateful encounter with the god of this dark universe.

Book Description
From Mega Nerd to Super Stud. Justin Case and women do not mix. Man boobs, a love of Kings and Castles, and being tight with the "nerd" crowd certainly don't win him any points either. After rescuing Katie, his crush, it turns out she might not be the girl he thought she was, while Elyssa, the school's Goth Girl, turns out to be more. Can high school get any more confusing? Determined to improve himself, he joins a gym and meets a sexy girl that just oozes a "come hither, Justin" vibe. Until she attacks him in the parking lot, and Justin realizes she's no ordinary girl but a being with supernatural speed and strength. After a narrow escape and an excruciating migraine headache, he wakes up with supernatural abilities all his own: speed, strength, and the ability to seduce every woman he sees. While that might sound like the perfect combo for any hormonal teen, Justin is a hopeless romantic who wants his first time to be special. Is that too much to ask for? But he doesn't know what he is or how to stop his carnal urges. One thing is clear: If he doesn't find answers there are other more sinister supernaturals who would like nothing better than to make him their eternal plaything and do far worse than kill him.
