Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s the Heian era, a time of peace, of Japanese cultural aristocracy, national identity, and pursuit of beauty through art and poetry. A long-forgotten race, the Hotaru-Raikō, as they have come to be known, part human and part firefly, dwells secretly alongside man. This noble clan once lived near the tree of life. Now they make their home in a thicket near the Fukui Castle moat in the Echizen Province, just north of the capital in Kyōto, Japan. Often mirroring man’s culture, they are particularly fascinated by the budding “way of the warrior” philosophy. However, in this time of peace, a foul creature escapes the bottomless pit, and a traitor emerges among the clan. Seduced by a spider yōkai seeking to release an army from the abyss, the traitor helps form the treacherous Tsuchigumo clan. With their help, the temptress is able to assassinate the Hotaru-Raikō lord and his faithful samurai. In the wake of this devastation, the daimyō’s eighteen-year-old daughter is tasked by an angel to defeat the spider yōkai, destroy her traitorous clan, and raze the Abaddon gate to the ground. Can she rise through the grief to lead the remnants of her father’s army as onna-musha? Who will stand by her side? What gift does the angel bring her? Will the Hotaru-Raikō find the gate to the abyss and complete their quest in time?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I had always known that there was something special and magical inside me, but I had never sought answers. Why uncover the past, when I was happy with my foster family, my books and my job at the bookstore? However, fate had other plans for me and the arrival of Scarlett Leclerc, my twin sister, whose existence I did not suspect, had completely overwhelmed my life. Suddenly all those questions I had never had the courage to ask myself had been answered and... a family claiming me. Keeping my life in balance with that news had been complicated, but I had always managed, until my sister asked me to make an exchange: to live her life for a week in New York, while she went to France to discover the Leclerc magic that had been taken from us. I had accepted, thus realising a dream of mine. Everything was going well, until a student with blue eyes tinged with violet had threatened me: ”When you made fun of me, maybe you forgot that I could kill you at any moment.” What did that boy want from me? Why was he chasing me? Why was he acting like I was his girlfriend? Translator: LRizzi-Erneste PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Right now the stars say Mason Forge needs to be here, slinging coffee in rural Virginia, which means my dragon energy is meant to inspire one of the human residents. Sure, I’d prefer to be a defender of my race like my father, but the Zodiac Brotherhood plays a limited role since the peace accord with the Saint’s Order—the secret society that traditionally hunted my kind. The moment I meet Reagan, I know she’s the reason the stars have guided me to Thornsboro, but the specifics of her secret project are a mystery. When she finally trusts me enough to share that she’s investigating the Saint’s Order, I’m horrified. I’ve been unwittingly helping her uncover the one story that could be a critical threat to my kind. To make things right, I have to leave her. Only, my dragon has chosen Reagan as his mate, and with my inner beast calling the shots, staying away is no longer an option.
