Book excerpt: Special commemorative edition with illustrations by the author Sometimes the hero is the wrong guy at the right time. When Amy prays for a savior, Loki Norse God of Mischief and Chaos isn't who she has in mind. Loki can't resist Amy's summons, but he can insist she help him outwit Odin, ruler of the Nine Realms. Can Amy trust a so-called God of Mischief? With a powerful evil calling him from beneath the city's streets, can Loki even trust himself? *** Wolves: I Bring the Fire Part I Amy Lewis is being chased by a very bad wolf. Galaxies away Loki is waking up in a prison cell, strangely without a hangover, and with no idea what he's done wrong-this time anyway. But he does know Odin is up to something wicked. In this urban fantasy tale a nice midwestern girl and a jaded, mischievous Loki join forces to outwit gods, elves, magic sniffing cats, and nosy neighbors. If Loki can remember exactly what he's forgotten and Amy can convince him not to be too distracted by Earthly gadgets, Earthly pleasures, or three day benders, they just might pull it off... *** Monsters: I Bring the Fire Part II After being attacked by a serial killer, saved by Loki - so-called God of Mischief, Lies and Chaos - dragged to Alfheim, and losing every cent in her bank account, Amy Lewis has lost her scholarship to veterinary school. But it's alright. She has a plan. Too bad her day boss is unbearable... Agent Steve Rogers has political aspirations, but when a so-called Norse gods start showing up in his life, he has a priority shift. Meanwhile, Loki's priorities and plans haven't changed at all. He wants Asgard to burn. These three disparate characters have little in common, but they'll have to join forces to save earth from an old evil growing beneath Chicago's streets. *** Chaos: I Bring the Fire Part III The noose around Loki's neck is tightening. Gerðr, the frost giantess, wants him dead; Cera, the World Seed, wants his head-literally and figuratively; the FBI wants him in Guantanamo; and an old friend from Asgard wants to bring him home...whether Loki likes it or not. In the third chapter of I Bring the Fire, humanity's demons are unleashed on the Nine Realms and Amy Lewis and Steve Rogers get front row seats. Chaos might be their only hope. *** In the Balance: An I Bring the Fire Novella Chaos can never really be destroyed ... Loki, God of Chaos, gave Amy Lewis all his memories, and one request before he saved the universe. "Remember for me." Amy knows Loki will find her, one way or another ... eventually. But as the weeks have ticked by she's lost hope.

Book excerpt: Once upon a time, in our ordinary world, there was a grandmother. She died. She was reborn as a Vampire in a world of Magick. The grandmother de-aged. Her ailments healed, her body became strong, and her wrinkles faded. Her wisdom, however, did not diminish. She knew monsters need monstrous names so they never forget the monsters they are. She named herself Grendel, after the medieval haunter of borderlands and drinker of warriors’ blood, slain by the hero Beowulf. The name seems appropriate. Grendel the Grandmother haunts the borderlands and drinks the blood of (mostly) evil warriors. But in a Magickal world, names don’t just have meanings, they are prophecies. And a new hero is rising. He has been molded since birth to fight evil, and been given the tools and skills to vanquish the most insidious evil of all: Vampires. His name is Beowulf, and he’s coming for Grendel. Grendel & Beowulf is a standalone adventure in Urban Magick & Folklore, and it is perfect for new readers and fans alike.

Can Grendel convince herself love is a force strong enough to break down the most powerful walls … the ones inside? Can she convince Beowulf she is not the enemy, or will Beowulf follow the path of his namesake, and let pride and a thirst for vengeance destroy Grendel’s homeland and himself? Grendel's faith and Beowulf's choice will decide the fate of empires, humans and monsters, the living and the dead.
