Book Description
After a thousand years one man's fell magic has returned the Demonic Presence to the land. A young farmer, Aleksei, chosen by a magical Wood, and a prince, Jonas, gifted in the magical meridians of the Archanium, must find a way to defeat the Presence to save themselves and all they love. But what happens when the monsters and figures of prophecy become horrifyingly real? How will Aleksei cope? When the stakes are at their highest, will Jonas falter? Or will both rise to the occasion, reforging themselves into the saviors Prophecy demands they become? In a world of magic and Magi, of Angels and Demons alike, how will they survive their own contorted destiny? This is the story of a seemingly-simple world gone mad, and the reality that every action, no matter how apparently benign, can serve to unravel terrifying truths. This is the story of Aleksei Drago, farmer and Hunter, and Jonas Belgi, prince and Archanium Mage.

Pages : 448
Book Description
Inspired by Beauty and the Beast and the myth of Hades and Persephone, this lush and enchanting enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Scarlett St. Clair. Wren of Edgewood is no stranger to suffering. With her parents gone, it’s Wren’s responsibility to ensure she and her sister survive the harsh and endless winter, but if the legends are to be believed, their home may not be safe for much longer. For three hundred years, the land surrounding Edgewood has been encased in ice as the Shade, a magical barrier that protects the townsfolk from the Deadlands beyond, weakens. Only one thing can stop the Shade’s fall: the blood of a mortal woman bound in wedlock to the North Wind, a dangerous immortal whose heart is said to be as frigid as the land he rules. And the time has come to choose his bride. When the North Wind sets his eyes on Wren’s sister, Wren will do anything to save her—even if it means sacrificing herself in the process. But mortal or not, Wren won’t go down without a fight… The North Wind is a stand-alone, enemies-to-lovers slow-burn fantasy romance, the first in a series sprinkled with Greek mythology.

Under the Sunset
Author: Bram Stoker
Publisher: Lindhardt og Ringhof
ISBN: 8726615444
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
Mysterious creatures, somber landscapes, wanderings in the afterlife, and macabre suspense. If you think this sounds dark and straight out of a horror movie then you would be right! 'Under the Sunset' is a short story collection by Bram Stoker, whose atmosphere and characters anticipate his more mature works. The sentimental and melodramatic theme of Christian values and compassion run strong, turning the majority of stories into tales of morality. It is a compilation of sad, amazing, and compelling fantasy stories that fans of the author and short fiction will definitely adore. Bram Stoker (1847-1912) was an Irish writer, best known for his Gothic horror 'Dracula', whose eponymous character became one of the most well known vampires in popular culture. 'Dracula' has been adapted for the big screen many times with the most famous being from 1992 staring Anthony Hopkins, Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder and Gary Oldman. Stoker's interest in the theatre bought him into the inner circle of London’s high society, where he met and became a close acquaintance of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. Among his other novels are 'The Mystery of the Sea' and 'The Jewel of the Seven Stars', as well as three short story collections and various non-fiction pieces and articles.
