Desert sands. Arcane magic. A love lost.

Finn Harris should have been the one to die.

But he wasn’t – his wife took his place. Nearly a decade later, Finn is content to hole himself up and wait out the rest of his life – what little he has left. That is, until his daughter intervenes, forcing him out of his grief and into a new virtual reality game developed by his old employer.

Finn wasn’t sure what he expected to find when he logged in. But it certainly wasn’t a manipulative fire god or a school for mages – where the students are pitted against each other in deadly duels.

Now Finn must learn to fight, for his own life and a chance at redemption. He’ll need to prove that his fire hasn’t been snuffed out.

That there’s still an ember burning…

Deadly competition. Deep desert. A dying tyrant.

Finn Harris was declared the Mage Guild’s champion.

However, that was only the beginning of the Emir’s competition. The next stage will send Finn and his companions deep into the desert north of Lahab in search of a long-lost relic.

Except, this time, he’s not just facing novice mages. Everyone in the region seems to be arrayed against him, god and man alike. Racing against the other two champions, swept into the middle of a conflict between the Emir and those he’s wronged, and at the mercy of a manipulative fire goddess, Finn must battle his way through the Abyss and claim his prize.

Yet he will not stop, and he cannot afford to fail – not with Rachael’s life hanging in the balance.

He will need to embrace his gifts and overcome his past.

Finn will need to become a true prophet of the flame.

Grieving her mother’s death, Aedre goes to another planet for a fresh start. Little does she know she’s headed into something much more threatening.

Faced with slavery and murder, she quickly becomes the mafia’s target.

A man with prophecies about Aedre offers her a ticket home if she recovers a key to a time-traveling pyramid.

The proposal seems too good to be true.

But when she unearths the power of shape-shifting, she discovers more potential in revenging the Godfather, freeing his slaves, and bringing her friends to justice.

Her heroism gets her into lots of trouble, and time travel also has its perils.

Will she do more harm than good? Will she make it out alive?

Montrose Paranormal Academy better watch out—it’s time for Seer Training.

I’ve got some new angel powers to play with. And I’m only getting started.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned since last semester, you never know what the Three Societies are going to do next.

First, they invite you into their midst and call it Seer Training.

Then they say, “Go fend for yourself.” I don’t think they’re going to like the way I fend for myself.

Because I’m tired of bowing to the whims of the Guardians, Nexis …

Or anybody else for that matter.

I’m the Seer. I’m the one with super-cool angel powers. And I’m the one who pays the price when I use them.

I still want to find my brother. Maybe even fight by his side. But first, I need to learn how to become my own Seer.

Just because I have awesome powers, doesn’t mean I’m anybody’s property.

Welcome to Montrose Paranormal Academy—where the Three Societies rule all.

Hi, I’m Lucy. And I just found out I’m not normal.

Three years ago my brother went missing in Europe without a word. Until the strange postcard I got six months ago.

So I enrolled at Montrose to find him. I just have to play nice with the Three Societies long enough to dig up some dirt …

Before they figure out who I really am.

Let them think my brother is the Seer. Because if any of these power-hungry secret societies find out the truth, they’ll never let me go.

For now, I’ll need to stay under the radar. But that’s hard to do when two rival society presidents take an interest in me.

Can I find my brother and master my surprise powers without getting caught?

I guess we’re about to find out.

In V Max One a paramilitary group detains Ares and Sera Morgan with a message: help us or die. What follows is a space opera with alien races, spaceship battles, and huge character moments. Make sure to stay for the ending…
