Born a slave, descended of kings, Jareen Velarius just wants to provide the best life he can for his family, but Eidolan is a realm that challenges even the most stalwart of souls. Caught between his masters and those brave or foolish enough to strike against them, Jareen struggles to reconcile his role as a dutiful slave with that of a man who desires to be free. His goal: to return his people to a life stolen by the highlords more than a millennium ago. Auberon Victore, sorcerer, alchemist, son of a powerful overlord, and Jareen’s master, creates an alchemic compound he is certain will change the world; he just does not know how. Jareen sees it for the weapon that could break the sorcerers’ iron grasp wrapped around the necks of every lowborn in the empire. It will change the world, but not in the way his master desires. Across the Tempest Sea, a mighty storm has raged for a thousand years, keeping a terrible, long-forgotten enemy at bay, an enemy whose cruelty knows no bounds. Only the perpetual storm and their fear of the sorcerer highlords keep the Necrophages from returning to Eidolan and cloaking the empire in death and darkness. But the tempest is waning, and the dissidents’ freedom may well come at the cost of their total destruction.
Eidolan is a harsh land, the only thing more deadly than its unforgiving environment being the humans who find the strength to survive within it. A thousand years ago, the sorcerers helped the mundane people of Eidolan cast out the Necrophages who plagued Phaer, the nation's greatest city and center of magic. However, the people's freedom was short-lived. After little more than a century, the sorcerers decided that the lowborn were incapable of governing themselves. Crime and debauchery ran rampant, at least in the highborns' minds, and so "liberated" the city states from the burden of rulership. The most powerful sorcerers of the time named themselves highlords and crowned the greatest among them as emperor of a consolidated empire. The sorcerers, once the saviors of Eidolan, have reigned over their empire with an iron hand since overthrowing the "lowborn" hierarchy after deeming them unworthy to rule. To this day, the highlords enforce their reign from the Necrophages' former home of Phaer, crushing any resistance that arises and enforcing their laws with a brutal hand. The Necrophages, those few who survived, fled across the sea to a distant continent, thought uninhabited and even more deadly than their homeland. To keep the Necrophages from ever returning and to prevent anyone from seeking them out, the highlords erected a barrier, a swirling tempest of unimaginable power that stretched across the horizon. The highlords chose to further purge the Necrophages from the world by eradicating any word of their ever having existed, erasing their history, and silencing anyone who even thought to name them. However, that far land, named Noirbedoj by the surviving Necrophages, was not as desolate as once thought. It was, in fact, populated by a primitive but strong people called the Ulec. The Ulec provided a prime source of power for the Necrophages' necromantic arts. The banished people not only survived, they thrived and were treated as gods by the Ulec. The Necrophages grew stronger, just waiting for the Great Tempest to wain so they could return to Eidolan and exact their revenge. In present day Velaroth, Jareen Velarius, descendant of the great city's former ruler and its namesake, was born into slavery and was content with his station in life. He had a wife and son and lived well compared to most. He was the personal attendant to Velaroth's Overlord's son, Auberon Victore. Auberon was a rising star amongst the highborn. He was intelligent, powerful in sorcery, and gifted with an inquisitive mind that drove him to create grand inventions that he hoped would change the world and one day be elevated to the status of highlord. His latest creation, a powder of fiery and explosive volatility, promised to do precisely that-if only he could find a practical use for it. Jareen, of like mind, aided his master in his alchemic endeavors, working fervently for nothing more than Auberon's praise. But when Highlord Nahuza Dreth orders his family killed after Jareen's brother-in-law launches a failed assassination attempt, Jareen finds new purpose. Not just in his life, but for Auberon's precious powder. With it, he will lead a rebellion to topple the most powerful empire in the history of the world.
Jack the Ripper, sadistic madman of old London, once thought long dead, has returned to New York in an effort to quench his thirst for blood and mayhem. When the city's vampire enclave finds itself insufficient to deal with a madman of Jack's caliber, Vincent, the enclave head, enlists Leo Malone to put the maniac down before he reveals the existence of vampires as he throws the city into the throws of chaos and terror. Leo soon finds that Jack is not the only monster with which he must contend. A ghost from his past has also seemingly crawled from its grave and seeks to put an end to him and the rest of his kind.

In her alter-ego guise of a demigoddess warrior princess, she battles against a powerful demonic invader named Romut and his horde of monsters to protect the people of her imaginary world. Ardentia is a lush forest and home to the fairy folk. Its verdant trees, flowers, pristine waters, and wildlife is not only the heart and soul of Amelia's make-believe world, but a symbol of her very existence. When Romut invades the core of her being, Amelia must fight, not just for her people and their home, but for her very life.
A creature of darkness lurks in the shadows of Velaroth, wearing the skin of its victims, and grips the city in terror. Dorian, a Necrophage bent on sowing chaos and paving the way for his people’s invasion, has declared war on the humans of Eidolan, and there appears to be no one capable of stopping him. Kiera’s world is shattered by those who hold power, and she is forced to seek an ally. The nightbird is coming into power of her own, but can she stay alive long enough to seize it? Russel’s behavior has taken a turn for the worse, and his actions have drawn the attention of those who would use his amazing talents for their own gain…and everyone else’s loss. The battle for Velaroth, and perhaps the world, has begun. Who will win? Who will live to mourn the dead? Will there be anything left for the victor to claim as their prize?
I've spent the last year cleaning up the mess Percy left after his failed coup. It isn't glamorous, but it's a job, and it pays well enough. Percy altered the Cure in a way to make it easier to create his little vampire army, but his new vampires have attitude problems and are worse at playing by the rules than I am, and they are the mess I'm trying to clean up. No biggie, I'm pretty good at that kind of housecleaning. The only problem is that someone called the cops on Percy's little house party. Homeland Security got hold of the new and improved Cure, made their own vampire anti-terrorist unit, and dropped them into freaking Yemen. Like most ill-conceived government projects, this one went bad real fast, and guess who has to fix it? Now I have to I have to hunt down and kill these rogue vampires, take on the U.S. government, and destroy all evidence of our existence. And, oh yeah, there's a freaking bomb in my head!

Brooklyn is home to thousands of drug dealers, murderers, rapists, thieves, gang bangers, and mafia. There are also some really unpleasant people—like me. My name is Leo Malone, and I'm a vampire. I've lived in Brooklyn for nearly a century, and I've grown to like the place. I used to be a sheriff; the law enforcement within the vampire enclave. I got fired a few years back for being too violent, and that's saying something when your primary duty is to cut the head off some vampire for stepping out of line. So now I do other things. Officially, I'm a private investigator. Unofficially, I take out the trash when it's too nasty leave on the curb. Anyway, a hot mutt (half-werewolf) and her brother hire me to find their father after he doesn't come home. But even playing dogcatcher for a rabid werewolf running amok and tearing apart the populace is a simple job compared to the giant conspiracy pile I step in trying to find him. Now, not only do I have to track down a creature capable of turning me into a chew toy if I'm not careful, I have an untold number of my own kind out for my head. That's why I live by the motto "do unto others before they do unto you," and I'm damn good at doing unto others.

Deep in debt to the Underlord Nimat, Kiera dives into ever more dangerous schemes that puts her at the heart of a war that could spell the destruction of not just the city, but the very empire.
