Book excerpt: The mage known as Braim Kotogs is the first human to return from the dead, a fact which brings him more attention—and trouble—from mortals and gods alike than he wants.

This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 1054 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enjoy When Worlds Begin, a collection of four series-starter novels, ranging from epic fantasy to dystopian paranormal romance, from YA author Megan O'Russell. Romance. Magic. Danger. Impossible odds. Enter When Worlds Begin, and dive into four full fantasy novels. Each world is different. Each story is built to whisk you away. A boy whose love is stronger than magic. He'll save the girl who holds his heart, no matter the cost. An assassin with the courage to topple kingdoms. They shouldn't have let her live. She will be the one to end them all. A girl who clings to hope at the end of the world. She didn't know the safety she lived in was a lie. The monsters are the only ones she can trust. An orphan finds adventures that reach new realms. She knew she was a witch. No one warned her that magic would force her into battle. All of these adventures wait for you. If you need romance, crave adventure, and aren't afraid to leap into a new world, When Worlds Begin is the four-book collection for you. When Worlds Begin includes Ember and Stone, Girl of Glass, The Tethering, and The Girl Without Magic. Readers rave about the four novels included in the When Worlds Begin boxset. “I really enjoyed this novel! It’s on the same level as The Hunger Games.” – BookBub Review of Girl of Glass “It's the magic we loved in Harry Potter, but happening right here and right now in the US.” – Amazon review of The Tethering “This reminded me of Doctor Who, except from the standpoint of the Doctor's assistant.” – Goodreads Review of The Girl Without Magic “David fights Goliath that will pass the Bechdel Test!” – Amazon review of Ember and Stone Ember and Stone (Ena of Ilbrea, Book One) Ena never hoped for a peaceful life. She never dreamt she'd become a killer either. After her home is reduced to ash, Ena is swallowed by a world of secrets and magic. Legends warned of dark shadows hiding in the mountains. They didn't warn of the dangers of falling in love with a myth. Girl of Glass (Girl of Glass, Book One) The world is ending, but Nola has been chosen to survive. This young adult dystopian novel looks at the apocalypse from the point of view of one of the few who has been chosen to survive. Blended with romance and a hint of paranormal, Girl of Glass asks the reader what the obligation of the privileged is to help the suffering. The Tethering (The Tethering, Book One) A dark spell may separate them forever. When fate binds Jacob and Emilia together, war threatens to destroy all they hold dear. Wizards are under attack, and Jacob and Emilia find themselves at the center of a battle that will decide the survival of magic. Facing an enemy that can shatter their souls, will they find love or be devoured by flames? The Girl Without Magic (The Chronicles of Maggie Trent, Book One) Death would have been easier, but the Siren wasn't through with her. The Siren dragged Maggie Trent out of a battle and into her Realm, a land where secrets hide in the shadows and pleasure comes at a price Maggie is unwilling to pay. With the promise of adventure in new worlds, Maggie leaps into a journey of blood and romance. *** When Worlds Begin is a four-book, series-starter collection for YA readers who love paranormal romance but just can't decide which of Megan's series to read first/next! The four young adult novels in When Worlds Begin all feature strong female main characters, runaways, hidden worlds, societal oppression, class differences, women in fiction, and, of course, all the adventure you could ask for! So, whether you're in the mood for witchcraft and wizardry, feminism in fantasy―be it urban or epic―myths and legends, or dystopian darkness hiding behind a utopian façade, When Worlds Begin has something for everyone! *** When Worlds Begin is perfect for fans of Kami Garcia, Rick Riordan, Missy Sheldrake, Anthea Sharp, J. C. Gilbert, Meg Collette, and TR Cameron.

At 10:47 AM, Nava Katz is given a magic destiny. Turns out it’s non-refundable. Destiny can suck it. Nava Katz traded a lost dream for an impressively cynical attitude. The one thing she does care about? Her hard-working twin brother. Then she interrupts his induction ceremony into a secret supernatural society, accidentally torches his life-long ambition, and steals his destiny. Wait—whaaaat? She expects to be chastised, not thrown into a trial by fire, battling demons to keep humanity safe while she’s learning to master her powers. She’s facing her worst nightmare: a purpose. To add insult to literal injury, it turns out that evil fiends are a delight compared to the all-male hunters, who shockingly, are not cool with a woman in their ranks.

He’s pursuing his own high-stakes mission, with no interest in babysitting some chick that everyone expects to die soon. But Nava excels in defying people’s expectations, and besides, spite is a powerful motivator. So, she hatches a plan to bring her brother into the fold alongside her. Sure, it involves defeating a vengeful demon out for blood, but you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few bones. The Brotherhood wants her gone. The demons want her dead.

Backyard guy was back. Ignoring the decadent images that his voice conjured up, I shoved my hand into the Doritos bag which contained about 237% salt, crawled to the edge of the bed, and threw the crumbs in the demon’s face. “Burn!” The demon glared at me as he wiped orange dust off his cheeks and sweater. “This is cashmere,” he said, frowning at the deep blue fabric. I scrambled to my feet, holding the bag out in front of me like a cross. Which, incidentally, did nothing against demons. And since vampires didn’t exist, did nothing against them either. Some demon happened to get its kicks feeding from the neck and suddenly everyone was rushing in with garlic and stakes looking to take down Count Dracula. Those who weren’t romanticizing them as life partners, that is. “There is enough salt in this bag to blister you back to your evil dimension.” Smirking, I batted my lashes at him. “Feel free to be scared.” He swiped the bag out of my hands, tossing it into the trash behind him. “A, if you’re gonna eat chips, at least eat decent ones. B, not a demon. And C,” he said, reading my baby doll tee, “love the outfit, Nava.” I scowled at him. “You are absolutely a demon.” He pulled out my desk chair, turned it around with a snap of his wrists, and straddled it. “Why?” “For starters, I never told you my name. Probably got it from the demon text chain that went out about me.” He grinned, flashing toothpaste-ad-perfect, even, white teeth. “I’m not in the group.” I crossed my arms over chest, feeling warm from that smile he’d leveled at me. “Any other proof you want to dazzle me with?” he asked. How about the fact that his grin made Josh’s seem like a neutered puppy’s, and Josh was a lust demon. Half-demon. Which made this guy full-evil status. “You broke into my bedroom and are holding me hostage.” With your incredible looks. Damn. Why not roll over already, idiot girl? I hadn’t been able to scope out his body in detail from our previous two encounters, but now, under proper lighting, I could tell he’d be nicely cut under that sweater that molded to him like a second skin. Underwear model nice and not the low rent, flyer-insert kind either. One of those glorious torsos caught in haunting black and white by Herb Ritts, the stark white of his briefs throwing his generous package into sharp relief. Then there was his face. If it hadn’t been for the slight bent of his nose, indicating it had been broken, his South Asian beauty would have been too painful and/or depressing to look at. Killer cheekbones, firm chin, gorgeous brown skin and lips that were created to do bad, bad, wonderful things. It was going to be a crime against humanity to kill him. I leaned in toward the slight breeze drifting in through my open window, refusing to fan myself in front of him. He sat there under my scrutiny, totally comfortable. A sign of excess confidence and further proof of evil. Though the more I stared at him, the more I got a niggling feeling that I knew him. “Did we ever…” I made a fist and pumped away in a back and forth motion. Amusement lit his amber eyes. “I was the lead singer of Fugue State Five.” He smirked, saying the words as if obviously I’d heard of them. Fair enough. Rohan Mitra had been the broody frontman whose so-sensitive lyrics and rough growl singing voice induced mass hysteria at concerts world-wide. It was rumored he’d averted an oil crisis with a personal visit to a Sheik’s daughter. Watching the beautiful jerk now, I believed it. ~ Includes the titles: The Unlikeable Demon Hunter (Nava Katz, #1) The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Sting (Nava Katz, #2) The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Need (Nava Katz, #3) Join the non-stop demon-slaying thrill-ride. “Don’t buy it if your offended by bad language, immoral behavior, lose ethics, sassy attitude, hot guys ... cuz it does it all - and its GREAT!!!”
