Getting the kraken away from human habitation proves challenging. And when Joan spots a grounded fishing boat, which the kraken refuses to release, Joan fears the creature has already claimed its first victim. Facing a kraken, without getting killed, tests even an experienced hero and her dragon. But that’s the job. A job Joan was born to do. Just her. Her sword. And her dragon. keywords: Dark urban fantasy; mythic fantasy; dragon fantasy; short story series; urban fantasy short story series; urban fantasy; dark fantasy; horror fantasy; dragons; dragons and heroes; demons and devils; werewolves and shifters; series urban fantasy; paranormal shifters; urban fantasy magic; magic and mayhem; monsters and shapeshifters

Book excerpt: "Shifting supernatural borderlands inspire awe and ancient gods mirror very human desires in a fear fable that balances complex philosophy with relentless, image-packed action. Tobler creates a fluid, transformative universe that’s equal parts exhilaration and terror." — Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) Fifteen-year-old Jackson is different from the other children at the foundling hospital. Scales sometimes cover his arms. Tentacles coil just below his skin. Despite this Jackson tries to fit in with the other children. He tries to be normal for Sister Jerome Grace and the priests. But when a woman asks for a boy like him, all that changes. His name is pinned to his jacket and an orphan train whisks him across the country to Macquarie’s. At Macquarie’s, Jackson finds a home unlike any he could have imagined. The bronze lions outside the doors eat whomever they deem unfit to enter, the hallways and rooms shift and change at will, and Cressida — the woman who adopted him — assures him he no longer has to hide what he is. But new freedoms hide dark secrets. There are territories, allegiances, and a kraken in the basement that eats shadows. As Jackson learns more about the new world he’s living in and about who he is, he has to decide who he will stand with: Cressida, the woman who gave him a home and a purpose, or Mae, the black-eyed lion tamer with a past as enigmatic as his own. The Kraken Sea is a fast paced adventure full of mystery, Fates, and writhing tentacles just below the surface, and in the middle of it all is a boy searching for himself.

But with the end of the Dark Mage war, a new era begins—one of safety, healing and a peace long hoped for. After centuries of struggle, the Dark Mage is dead, killed by Adam Gray in an epic battle beneath the fiery catacombs of Mount Dismay. Or at least the world thought so. When an assassin’s arrow turns matchless joy to grieving despair, it marks but the first of many blows signaling the rebirth of an age-old nemesis. And this time, Adam will find himself overmatched and woefully unprepared. Together with Craigen the giant, Adam embarks on a crucial quest. He must seek a means to answer the unanswerable: How to salvage a love already lost? How to redeem the lives of friends half a world away? And one transcendent question, one whose answer will determine whether thousands live or die: How do you kill a monster who is already dead?
