Temperance Whiteoak is many things. Gunslinger. Daemon-hunter. Witch. Traveling across the land of Korvana, she searches for any clues about the monster that killed her family and destroyed her town. Aiding her in that quest are a bandolier full of hexbullets and her talking horse, Astor.

However, after joining what should have been a routine escort mission to earn a bit of coin, Temperance finds herself stuck between an unyielding marshal and his sorcerous prisoner. To make matters worse, an army of bandits are hot on their heels, determined to free the sorcerer at any cost. It will take all of Temperance’s wits—and bullets—to survive.

THE DELIVERY OF FLESH is the first in a planned eight-part series, with book two and three also available.

When Eva’s brother is murdered, she is forced to investigate the crime herself. What she discovers brings her up against a powerful slave-trading cartel, dark gods, and worst of all her twin sister. In a city of elvish masters and matriarchal dwarves where humans have no rights, the only people on her side are an illegally-freed slave, a senile nanny, and an ex-almost-boyfriend. But even when she nearly loses her job and almost loses her head in a sword fight on the same night, she isn’t deterred. It’s when the nanny goes missing that she really starts to worry.

Femme fatale turns hard-boiled investigator in this first Eva Thorne novel. Set in a world where magic and machines can’t stand against the God of Death, humans are on the run from the god’s invasion. Highcrowne is the only refuge, but that means living in the Outskirts of an ancient city where Eva’s kind is not wanted.

Beneath the surface, however, the rebels are still looking for a way to bring the new government to its knees. Sitting above them in the castle that was once Camelot, the Core dictate the five zones behind their masks, unaware of how unhappy their people are. Ryoko, the woman who is like the dragon, is too preoccupied by the storm brewing in the castle.

Traveling through time to twelfth century England was never on Maryanne Warren’s to do list. Not that modern-day life’s so great, but at least her little brother’s in it. He’s the only reason she’s climbed out of bed recently.

To get back to him, she’s just got to convince outcast Robin of Woodhurst to become Robin Hood. It should be simple. Travel through time, instigate a carriage robbery or two, then back to her real life.

Somehow Rob slips past the walls she’s spent years building, making her care about his cause. She doesn’t even want to think about the way his intense stare renders her speechless.

As the time to return home draws closer, she becomes less certain her brother is her future. Perhaps her place is here at Rob’s side, as his Lady Marian.

But the time travel magic has its own agenda, and Maryanne must decide which of her lives is the one worth fighting for.
