A TALE OF THE ENDLANDS -- A KINDLE-SINGLE PREVIEW SHORT STORY FROM THE ANTHOLOGY A PRAYER FOR DEAD KINGS AND OTHER TALES Charan moved past her to drop to his knees. He gripped the stinking grate, ignored the heady slime of blood and offal that clung to its corroded bars as he shifted it from practiced memory. A particular twist, a specific positioning that would disengage it from the stones that surrounded them. He felt it come loose, lifted it carefully. Below, the mouth of a narrow well opened up to darkness. "The sewers?" Jalina said from behind. "They'll search every sewer and tunnel within a league of the castle to find him. "If you insist on telling me things I already know, put them to a tune, at least." With a flourish, Charan stood back, beckoning her toward the open sluice drain. The day's wash water was still slick on the stones, dripping at the edges like a rank rain. "You're mad," she said. "And a fool, apparently, and proud of both. Get in." "I will not... " "You will," Charan said, "whether you climb or whether I drop you." Smiling, he advanced on his sister as one moved on a disobedient dog, saw her flinch despite her own best effort. "This isn't done yet, but when it is, you'll have an empire to rule. The scent of blood is the first thing you need to get used to." In a dark short story of passion and murder (unintended and otherwise), Charan and Jalina are sibling heirs to the throne of empire who share a bond of blood and a grave secret -- both of which threaten to destroy them when their father is killed...

Lightfoot by Joe Kuster (917 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Life as a plaything of the divines is harder than it sounds. As one of the downtrodden in Eden's Meadow, TJ has led a life of scraping by as best he could. With little more to his name than a winning smile, his life takes a turn for the interesting as he befriends Serina, a rebellious young woman among the god-like Devas that control his realm. Being a test subject for her magic seems innocent enough, even if she occasionally tinkers with things she shouldn't. Unfortunately, her experiments on him don't go unnoticed and as soon as her family finds out, he's as good as dead. About to be pulped by dozens of angry higher powers, Serina saves him the only way she can: by binding his soul to hers and flinging him through a portal to another world. Landing in the realm full of dangerous creatures and sinister adversaries, he finds that the pact has changed him in more ways than claiming his soul. The newly minted adventurer has his work cut out for him, especially since he doesn't have any idea how to use the magic that's been stuffed into him, much less what to do about the oaths that require him to love freely and spend his nights carousing. Join TJ on this riveting adventure that spans multiple worlds and help him discover the secrets of the Devas as he struggles to survive and fulfill his oaths. Disclaimer: This series features a protagonist raised in a higher realm where free love and indulgence are the norm and has a set of morals and ethics that are different from our own. While it contains explicit bits, they are clearly tagged and easily skippable if that's not your thing. His story includes building harem-like relationships with multiple devoted women, and does not fade to black. Also, this story is not game-lit, it doesn't feature crunchy rules-heavy systems, there's not a stat in the house, and the MC doesn't exploit world mechanics. However, it isn't for the faint of heart. For 18+ readers only.

Becoming the Enemy by Renata McMann (2 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

A devastating war killed most of Earth's population. A few of the survivors resolved that they would repopulate the world but do so in a way that would ensure that such a war would never happen again. How could they avoid future violence when they couldn't eliminate it in the present? Sandra would have liked to step aside and let others make decisions. The others were senior citizens and probably would be wiser than she was. However, her pregnancy gave her a greater stake in the future. This short novel (about 46,000 words) describes the aftermath of the deaths of most of humanity. Although it was inspired by Renata McMann's and Summer Hanford's Pride & Prejudice and Planets, it contradicts that book in many ways. Prologue When his connection died, Ben closed his laptop and put it in his backpack. He headed out with his backpack and suitcase, wondering if they had waited for him. They had. Alice's SUV was at the door. Ben's, James', and Daisy's cars were still in the parking lot. Ben had never seen the parking lot so empty. The back of the SUV opened invitingly, and Ben stowed his luggage. As he was doing so, he asked,"No one else?" "They didn't believe me," Alice said. "They think I'm a crazy old lady with delusions." Ben didn't think it would be wise to comment that believing her was the only strategy that had a chance that he would be alive in a week. He did voice one practical thought. "Shouldn't we bring another car in case of problems?" "It's too easy to get separated. The roads will be crazy." Everything was crazy. Why should the roads be an exception? As Ben was getting in the SUV, James said, "Dying for a cause can be praiseworthy. Dying for a lost cause is stupid. No one will care that you stayed at your post until you lost connectivity." "Ben cares," Daisy said. Yes, Ben did care. He still expected to die along with the rest of mankind. Alice's safe place was so unlikely that he could easily consider it to be a delusion, no matter how ...

Wolfsbane: An Infinite Arcana Novella (Werewolves of Boston Book 1) by SJ Himes (S.J. Himes) (1,553 Review)    Price verified 5 hours ago

Introducing a new series, Werewolves of Boston, set in the same universe as The Beacon Hill Sorcerer! Rael Morrow is a human-werewolf hybrid, and he's about to be kicked out of his pack. Unable to transform, Rael is left with few options. He can accept the Alpha's ruling and be banished, pulling his mother with him -- or agree to a courtship with Jameson Mercer, heir presumptive of their Boston Southside Pack and the object of Rael's longtime unrequited crush. If he mates with Jameson, he can remain in the pack, and he and his mother won't have to suffer the indignity of being forced to uproot their whole lives. Rael reluctantly agrees to the plan. He's been in love with Jameson since he was a kid, and there's no way Jameson cares about him in the same way. Rael is afraid he's setting himself up for a lifetime of misery. But then begins a seduction that breaks down every preconceived notion that Rael had about Jameson, and he dares to hope. Of course, things are never that easy. Jameson is the perfect alpha, and Rael's human heritage hides a secret that threatens his life. The Southside Pack is primed to fracture as power dynamics shift. And Rael is forced to reconcile who he always thought he was with who he could become. WOLFSBANE is a 37,000 word novella set in the Infinite Arcana, an expanded universe shared with The Beacon Hill Sorcerer, but can be read as a standalone.

Princess of Light (Heirs of a Broken Land Book 1) by Marie Bilodeau (57 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

Three legendary women. Two dying lands. One final call to battle. Princess Cassara Edoline's kingdom is shattered, her magic has failed, and her beloved brother is missing. Desperate to find him before she is forced to leave her cherished home and marry a stranger, Cassara vows to raise an army of her own and seek revenge. Time, however, is not on her side -- and neither is the bloodthirsty Grayloft warrior sent to protect her. Crimson Circle Elite Shirina has been tracking the elusive Grayloft warrior for weeks, tasked with returning Avarielle and her magical sword to the Circle where they belong. Shirina would prefer to simply kill the warrior and be done with it, but in the face of treachery stemming from within the Circle itself, she has no choice but to ally herself with her prey. As the Wall of Loss that separates the lands begins to crumble and darkness invades the Land of Light, all three women must heed to call to battle surging in their blood. But will their reluctant alliance and legendary powers be enough to save the world? Or will their differences lead to the destruction of all they hold dear? An epic fantasy story in the vein of the Lord of the Rings, The Wheel of Time, and Shannara, where darkness can only be stopped by those who stand against it, and the most insignificant lives can prove the most important. From the first page, this tale grabbed me. Cassara and everyone she met came alive on the pages, and I couldn't stop turning them. And found myself thoroughly enjoying a tale told with humour despite its dark moments, with twists and turns that kept me reading long after bedtime. And kept bringing me to a halt to re-read moments that bit hard, and took my breath away. Remember that when you get to the end, and know that there are sequels. You're going to love this book." -- Ed Greenwood Internationally-bestselling author of SPELLFIRE and creator of The Forgotten Realms® "... having such a wonderful read with such a great ending means I ...
