About the book
Mateo has survived his training so far. But it's far from over.
Having passed his initial assessment, Mateo has been assigned to learn the craft of the Dark Wing, the information gathering branch of the Iron Wing Army. But it quickly becomes apparent that Dark Wing does a lot more than gather information when he is sent to infiltrate an enemy city to pave the way for a surprise attack.
As Mateo’s personal power continues to grow he’ll learn that it takes a lot more than strength to navigate the complex web of intrigue between nations. Yet no matter how adept he becomes, it is impossible to avoid being drawn into the maelstrom that surrounds the ambitious imperial family, leaving Mateo with no choice but to commit himself to supporting the young Fifth Prince.
Together with his friends and his spirit bond, Corvus, Mateo will continue to uncover the truth about the world, the mysterious Solomon order, and the treacherous path his master planned for him.

About the book
From assassin to protector. From weapon to shield.
For three years, Callen Nasinth has hidden in a quiet village, forging tools by day and guarding a woman and child he was once hired to kill. Known once as Nightshade, elite assassin of the Black Veil, he’s buried that past deep.
But when a mysterious merchant arrives bearing a fragment of dragon eggshell, long-dormant powers stir—within the world, and within Callen. The fragment awakens a rare magic tied to the drift—an ancient sense allowing him to feel the world’s energy, and fracture it.
Then Nora is taken.
To save the girl who’s become like a daughter, Callen must reclaim the deadly skills he abandoned—and face the assassin order that made him what he is. Worse still, his former mentor has begun harnessing dragon fragments for weapons of war.
As Callen’s bond to the drift deepens, one truth becomes undeniable:
Somewhere, a dragon lives. And it’s calling to him.

About the book
Wylan Atwater was supposed to join the dragon guard.
Instead, she watched a blue dragon burn her home, slaughter her parents, and leave her with something worse than grief: scales beneath her skin, fire in her throat, and a wyvern soul she cannot control.
Now stranded in the Dar Desert, Wylan wants only one thing—revenge. But when a vision calls her to a ghost-haunted town untouched by dragonfire, she finds a child with impossible power, two wyvern-shifters who claim she needs training, and a dead witch who refuses to surrender what she believes belongs to her.
The dragons are gathering. The dead are restless. And the wand Wylan steals from the darkness may be powerful enough to destroy her enemies—if it doesn’t claim her soul first.
To survive, Wylan must reach the imperial city of Darubai, master the beast inside her, and decide whether vengeance is worth becoming the very monster she hates.
Because the dragon who ruined her life is still out there.
And Wylan intends to make him bleed.

Featuring a female dragon shifter, ancient curses, desert kingdoms, ghosts, dragonfire, and dragons blood, this epic fantasy begins a dangerous journey where revenge may be the only thing keeping a heroine alive—and the one thing that could destroy her.

The Palace is protected by the realm's elite Shields, dedicated to guarding the royal line against all foes.
A group of vicious brigands called the Wildwood Reivers have been stealing arcane artefacts and smuggling them across the borders, out of Sunweald. And the objects they most desire are stored in the mystical Wyrm Vault, hidden away deep in the bones of the earth, within the walls of the Palace itself.
As political and religious tensions mount, Sunweald's druids prepare to enact rituals for the Summer Solstice – but the Wildwood Reivers and their treacherous allies have other plans. It falls to Briar, the commander of the Shields, to defend the ancient corridors and secret tunnels of the Palace. The odds may be against her, but she'll see every enemy head adorning a spike or she'll die trying…

Choose your retailer
About the book
A thousand years of war. A sacred light built on a lie. And a truth powerful enough to destroy the world.
For over a millennium, soldiers have died at the Mountain Temple, believing the Stillight—a divine flame of red and gold—demanded their sacrifice.
They were all deceived.
Theron hides in a forgotten village, feeding the starving and asking for nothing. Atonement is all he has left for the choices that shaped the war. But when battle erupts at the Mountain Temple once more, his past drags him back.
Nyra commands the Sylphar legions with ruthless precision. Total victory is the only answer. Failure is not permitted. But the orders she receives from the gods themselves make no sense—and obeying them may cost her everything.
When their paths collide beneath six empty thrones, they uncover a truth the gods never wanted revealed.
The war was never about territory. The gods aren't distant. And the light everyone worships? It's been lying from the beginning.
Stopping the war means confronting what keeps the world alive. And some truths don't set you free—they doom you.

About the book
The Blood Witch Has Changed Everything.
Chen traveled to the US with his clan, hoping to rescue his kidnapped brother from the fae.
They just need a witch to find the exact location of where the door between the human world and the fae world will open.
The one thing Moon can’t do.
Chen grabbed the wrong type of witch.
That’s not stopping Moon from clinging to Chen as he guides them through a new territory, introducing them to the witches, shifters, and vampires who can help them.
The longer Moon remains at Chen’s side, the more he hopes the witch might consider staying with him always.
Except that the king of the fae might have other deadly plans for Chen.
Two Thousand Dreams is the first novel in the Kings of Chaos series, which is a spin-off from the Lords of Discord series. This book contains one very grumpy vampire falling in love with a very perky blood witch, shifters, overprotective witches, other non-human surprises, snark, angst, found family, brotherly bickering, magic, chaos, vampire cuddles, and an endless love that grows stronger with each kiss.

About the book
Return to the Thai-inspired world of Suyoram in this vicious follow up to 2024's The Last Phi Hunter, exploring mythology, colonialism, and feminine rage. A perfect read for fans of Iron Widow and The Sword of Kaigen.
With her constant connection to the Everpresent – the mystical plane where hunters draw their powers – Isaree’s a natural Phi Hunter, with a future predetermined by tradition: to stalk the Kingdom of Suyoram’s haunted lands and slay troublesome ghosts.
But the more Ree learns about the Phi Hunter Guild’s legacy, the more she questions their rigid doctrine. And as colonizing forces from Grisland tighten their grip across the region, Ree begins to wonder if the hunter’s path is her true calling.
Elsewhere, the famed Storm Prince Tanung has one desire: death or glory. Grappling with a fading legacy and a mysterious illness, his ambition drives him on a mission to capture a brutal rebel leader known for leaving horrific massacres in their wake. But the further he goes, the further he’s drawn into a war rumbling beyond his reality, and out of anyone’s control.
Their paths were never meant to cross. But unmoored by their legacies, the shadows they cast decide whether they’ll be remembered as heroes – or villains.

About the book
A ragtag crew with forbidden magic must pull off an elaborate heist and stop a civil war in An Illusion of Thieves, a fantasy adventure from Cate Glass.
In Cantagna, being a sorcerer is a death sentence.
Romy escapes her hardscrabble upbringing when she becomes courtesan to the Shadow Lord, a revolutionary noble who brings laws and comforts once reserved for the wealthy to all. When her brother, Neri, is caught thieving with the aid of magic, Romy's aristocratic influence is the only thing that can spare his life—and the price is her banishment.
Now back in Beggar's Ring, she has just her wits and her own long-hidden sorcery to help her and Neri survive. But when a plot to overthrow the Shadow Lord and incite civil war is uncovered, only Romy knows how to stop it. To do so, she'll have to rely on newfound allies—a swordmaster, a silversmith, and her own thieving brother. And they'll need the very thing that could condemn them all: magic.

About the book
Set in an alternate Europe, the first Crown of Stars epic fantasy chronicles a world-shaking conflict for the survival of humanity.
“A complex fantasy world with intriguing parallels to European history, colorful characters, and plenty of action and magic.” —Locus
It begins with civil war . . .
For though King Henry still holds the crown of Wendar, his reign has long been contested by his sister Sabella. There are many eager to flock to her banner, and there are ways to make even the most unwilling lord into a weapon pointed at the heart of Henry’s realm.
Torn by internal strife, Wendar also faces deadly raids from the north by an inhuman race, the Eika. And now terrifying portents are being seen; old ruins restored to life under the light of the full moon and peopled by the long-vanished Lost Ones; dark spirits walking the land in broad daylight. And suddenly two innocents are about to be thrust into the middle of the conflict.
Liath, who has spent her early years fleeing from unknown enemies, is a young woman with the power to change the course of history if she can only learn to master her fear and seize what is rightfully hers.
While Alain, a young man who may find his future in a vision granted by the Lady of Battles, must first unravel the mystery of who he is—whether the bastard son of a noble father, the half-breed child of an elfin lord, the unwanted get of a whore, or the heir to a proud and ancient lineage. For only when he discovers the truth can he accept the destiny for which he was born.
Liath and Alain, each trapped in a personal struggle for survival, both helplessly being drawn into a far greater battle, a war in which sorcery not swords will determine the final outcome, and the land itself may be irrevocably reshaped by the forces unleashed . . .
