Book Description
Becoming a goddess wasn’t what I planned for today. Death made me an offer I couldn't refuse. But I'm in love with the archangel who is his oldest and best friend. “You have been friends for a millennium,” I said. Perhaps as much as a god and his angel could be friends, I thought. “It would be cosmically stupid for you to allow a woman to ruin such love.” I held their hands tight as they flinched and tried again to pull away. But they were looking at me now, not each other, which is what I wanted. Focus on me, boys, I thought to myself, selecting my next words carefully. The stone floor was hard and cool against my knees as I knelt between them. I brought both of their hands to my lips. “I choose you,” I said again, loud enough to fill the dark room. I looked from one to another and asked, “Will you both choose me?” Confusion and ancient possessiveness settled across their faces at war with hope and a new consideration. The juxtaposition might have been comical had my heart not hung in the balance. Ravens mate for life. And death. ---- Raven Queen, Arise is a poly romance featuring a bisexual heroine doing the best she can to protect the people she loves, right the wrongs done her, and assemble the beginnings of her own reverse harem.

In the third gritty installment of the Raven's Mark series, Blackwing Captain Ryhalt Galharrow finds that all power comes with a price... A sorcerous cataclysm has hit the Range, the final defensive line between the republic and the immortal Deep Kings. Tormenting red rains sweep the land, new monstrosities feed on fear in the darkness, and the power of the Nameless, the gods who protect the republic, lies broken. The Blackwing captains who serve them are being picked off one by one, and even immortals have learned what it means to die. Meanwhile, the Deep Kings have only grown stronger, and they are poised to deliver a blow that will finally end the war. Ryhalt Galharrow stands apart from it all. He has been deeper into the wasteland known as the Misery than ever before.

They will even follow him--and the few surviving Blackwing captains--on one final mission into the darkness.

Book Description
It is cold to walk in the shadow of a newborn goddess. When tasked to do the impossible, sometimes even the righteous must disobey. “What do you seek of my Raven Queen?” He opened his mouth—I’m sure to object or demand—but I tilted my head and smiled at him from behind my curtain of scarlet curls with all the womanly radiance I could muster. He was my windfall, the solution to my current problem set for me by Illyria herself. For all my training and years of practice as a bedslave, I also wanted, nay, needed this god to bend to my will. He did. Memad closed his mouth, swallowed and breathed in and out slowly, causing his magnificent chest to rise and fall. He was mesmerizing. Had I not been so inured to banal sexuality, I might’ve lost my own train of thought. Instead, I needed control of his. But it was a near thing. Clutching the Book, I closed the last step between us to lay my free hand over his heart. “I can help you, Memad, son of storms and glory,” I whispered, “if you help me.” He nodded, our gazes still locked together. In the name of the Raven Queen, I make love and war. ---- Righteous Disobedience is the transformation story of the first convert and first priestess of the Raven Queen. The story takes place during the events of Raven Queen, Arise in the Temple of Vengeance quadrilogy.

Book Description
“A remarkably assured fantasy debut that mixes of the inventiveness of China Miéville with the fast paced heroics of David Gemmell.”—Anthony Ryan, New York Times bestselling author of The Legion of Flame Set on a postapocalyptic frontier, Blackwing is a gritty fantasy debut about a man’s desperate battle to survive his own dark destiny... Hope, reason, humanity: the Misery breaks them all. Under its cracked and wailing sky, the Misery is a vast and blighted expanse, the arcane remnant of a devastating war with the immortals known as the Deep Kings. The war ended nearly a century ago, and the enemy is kept at bay only by the existence of the Engine, a terrible weapon that protects the Misery’s border. Across the corrupted no-man’s-land teeming with twisted magic and malevolent wraiths, the Deep Kings and their armies bide their time. Watching. Waiting. Bounty hunter Ryhalt Galharrow has breathed Misery dust for twenty bitter years. When he’s ordered to locate a masked noblewoman at a frontier outpost, he finds himself caught in the middle of an attack by the Deep Kings, one that signifies they may no longer fear the Engine. Only a formidable show of power from the very woman he is seeking, Lady Ezabeth Tanza, repels the assault. Ezabeth is a shadow from Galharrow’s grim past, and together they stumble onto a web of conspiracy that threatens to end the fragile peace the Engine has provided. Galharrow is not ready for the truth about the blood he’s spilled or the gods he’s supposed to serve…

Book Description
I am not a hero. I never wanted to become a god. The demon lords of the underworld took my wife and unborn child far too soon. I will take back what is mine. And whatever else I must to do it. When she sighed, the goddess’ breath was heavy and moist, smelling of pomegranate and coconut and allspice. “I cannot bring her back to you, Z’nnek.” My heart could not have sunk any lower nor my resolve become any more unyielding. A blank black slate, my mind refused to produce a next plan. My heart stopped and refused to break. “But I will give you a gift,” she said with a wan smile, “which may enable you to catch her before it is too late.” Fickle hope kindled in my heart which resumed its beating. “This gift does not come without cost,” she said. Beware the wrath of a peaceful man. ---- Death Descends is the origin story of the god of the unclaimed dead, Z’nnek. The story takes place 8,000 years before the events of Raven Queen, Arise in the Temple of Vengeance quadrilogy.

The magical saga of the women behind King Arthur's throne. “A monumental reimagining of the Arthurian legends . . . reading it is a deeply moving and at times uncanny experience. . . . An impressive achievement.”—The New York Times Book Review In Marion Zimmer Bradley's masterpiece, we see the tumult and adventures of Camelot's court through the eyes of the women who bolstered the king's rise and schemed for his fall. From their childhoods through the ultimate fulfillment of their destinies, we follow these women and the diverse cast of characters that surrounds them as the great Arthurian epic unfolds stunningly before us. As Morgaine and Gwenhwyfar struggle for control over the fate of Arthur's kingdom, as the Knights of the Round Table take on their infamous quest, as Merlin and Viviane wield their magics for the future of Old Britain, the Isle of Avalon slips further into the impenetrable mists of memory, until the fissure between old and new worlds' and old and new religions' claims its most famous victim.

In the chaotic aftermath of the Sundering, the orcs of Many-Arrows reignite their bloody feud with Bruenor Battlehammer Having escaped Gauntlgrym, the Companions of the Hall are united in body and spirt—but not in ideals. As the Darkening casts its shadows upon the northern cities of the Shining White, portending war, the past rears its angry head. Old debts insist on payment and old wrongs demand to be set right.
