After a costly defeat by the Darkblade, Vaelin’s forces are shattered, while the self-proclaimed immortal and his army continue their terrible march. But during the clash, Vaelin regained some of the dark magic that once gave him unrivaled skill in battle.

Book excerpt: Fast of the Family Tree By: Bryonna Dyer Four of the highest-powered families around the world are in conflict: the Sylvesters, arctic investors in the highest paying armory dealership; the Mallicks, universal hackers and programmers, are almost impossible to find; the Yeungs, Chinese scientists obsessed with reaching outside the limits of the human brain and body (and taking any measure necessary to achieve their goal); and the Fasts, though small in number, are the most lethal weapon of FAST, Factotum Agency of Solidified Trust. Rivals for power and control, the Yeung family succeeds to manufacture an underground corporation of “the new beginning” for mankind. A stronger, faster, more fearless race of weapons in war. One that could overthrow humanity as a whole. Ten-year-old, Raven Sylvester, born and raised from the Sylvester family line, meets Silica Fast, a mysterious woman who devotes her life to protect her. Never seen without a gun in hand, Raven soon learns Silica is not only an underground agent but family, and maybe the only chance they have at uniting the four power families and ending the reign of the Yeung family name. Family is not defined by blood or position. It is by whom you love, and who loves you. The loyalty, sense of security, and trust people develop with one another.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great War Has Ended… The thousand years following the Great War, and the writing of the First Law, were not always peaceful, but nothing could compare to the slaughter that came before. The three races continued to make their way through the world in relative prosperity, even after the separation of the Eastern Kingdom over five hundred years prior. The horrors of the Great War faded into the annals of history, except for a single problem. It was all a lie. Distrust of the ravens was beginning to spread from an unknown source. The disappearances were growing more frequent and were joined by even darker rumors. Through all this, the Raven Queens continued to research the truth for centuries. How do you prove a lie with no evidence? How do you find evidence from a thousand years ago? What really happened? How did the Great War truly end? Queen Nánfeng knows she will not live to see the answers but knows they are running out of time. All she can do is prepare the way for her child-prodigy of a daughter. A seven-year-old Princess who cares more about complaining and hiding from her training than she does about the state of the world. It will be up to Princess Qiàn’s Wolf Protector to keep her on the proper path. The true road to being the Raven Queen is a brutal one which no one would ever want to force on another. However, through the suffering and sacrifice of one, perhaps all others will be spared. Unbeknownst to all, even the Raven Queens, their world has been being watched closely for a very long time, from both sides.

Book excerpt: Turner has only one thing on his mind—killing the man who chained him and made his life hell. The problem is that Turner can’t exactly announce what he’s up to, and he can’t ask for help, even though he sorely needs it. He can only continue training and hope it won’t take him years to get his hands on Alpha Rhodes. Raven was there when Turner was rescued, and he cares about the man. When his alpha’s son asks him to check in on Turner, he can’t say no. When his alpha asks him to train Turner and keep an eye on him because he knows what Turner is up to, his answer is still yes. Neither of them expected to fall in love. Turner can’t afford to focus on Raven, and Raven can’t allow Turner to kill anyone. Is their relationship doomed, or will they be able to find their way through the anger and need for revenge and realize they already have everything they need—each other?
