When a world’s fate rests on her sword, will a loyal soldier obey her king or follow her heart?

Militess Halina is a fearsome soldier and the unapologetically tough bastard daughter of Ursinum’s king. When she’s ordered to gain the allegiance of Shadow Mage Gethen — a notoriously dangerous necromancer whose brother is an enemy king — she assumes the negotiations will be simple: Either he’ll pledge his loyalty or she’ll remove his head.

But the Shadow Mage isn’t what she expected, nor is his situation. Intriguing and powerful, Gethen’s the only man preventing the return of an ancient menace that threatens their world. And though he hates to admit it, his sorcery is failing and he needs her help.

Suddenly Ursinum’s dispute with Gethen’s brother seems petty, and Halina must decide who’s best served by her sword: her king or every man, woman, and child in the four kingdoms and beyond.

Some mercenary groups are elite, unstoppable, demon-slaying heroes. The Crimson Hunters are not those type of mercenaries.

The world of Dellerin has fallen to The Dark One’s rule. Weavers have been hunted out of existence, and demonic attacks are on the rise.

It’s a terrible time to be a mercenary outfit, and a worse time to be an incompetent mercenary outfit. The Crimson Hunters haven’t had a win in months, but this contract feels different. This contract will be the one to pull them from the gutter.

The omens are good, the gods are smiling, and the bounty is curiously substantial.
There’s an injured demon on the run, the trap has been set, and everything is falling into place.

The Crimson Hunters are about to get paid!

Right?

Geo Spears thought her legacy would put her above humanity. She had created Fusion A.I., the superintelligence that saved mankind from itself. Poverty, pollution, crime and war—all gone. The solution was simple—people’s minds just had to be whitewashed… watered down.

By 2135, few human wants, wishes, instincts or memories remained. But this was also the year Geo Spears’ longevity treatment failed. She had weeks to live, at most. Cast out by Fusion and faced for the first time with mortality, her past betrayal of family becomes entangled with the present of those she learns to hold dear. Geo is confronted with the true cost of her A.I. creation. And the one remaining path to absolution.
