Book excerpt: Revenge and responsibility, confrontation and consequences. A hot desert land of diverse peoples dealing with demons, mages, natural disasters … and the Black Rose assassins. On a quest for vengeance, Shukara arrives in the city of Mask having already endured two years of hardship and loss. Her pouch is stolen by Tamira, a young street-smart thief, who throws away some of the rarer reagents that Shukara needs for her magick. Tracking down the thief, and being unfamiliar with Mask, Shukara shows mercy to Tamira in exchange for her help in replacing what has been lost. Together they brave the intrigues of Mask, and soon discover that they have a mutual enemy in the Black Rose, an almost legendary band of merciless assassins. But this is just the start of their journeys… Although set in an imaginary land, the scenery and peoples of Thorns of a Black Rose were inspired by David Craig’s experiences on a trip to Egypt, Morocco and the Sahara. Mask is a living, breathing city, from the prosperous Merchant Quarter whose residents struggle for wealth and power, to the Poor Quarter whose residents struggle just to survive. It is a coming of age tale for the young thief, Tamira, as well as a tale of vengeance and discovery. There is also a moral ambiguity in the story, with both the protagonists and antagonists learning that whatever their intentions or justification, actions have consequences.

Book excerpt: When a reputable local news reporter covering a public interest story stumbles upon a shady land deal, he winds up slain in a convenience store parking lot. While the shadow of his murderer originates in the dark, dangerous underbelly of Richmond's inner-city streets, a murky trail leads right up to some very prominent and influential members of the city hall. When all hope appears lost, Dexter Carrington, a handsome, well-renowned attorney, is asked to step in and defend what may be one of the most dangerous cases he has encountered yet. Driven by ambition and a powerful lust to win, and win at any cost, Dexter takes on the case. However, Dexter is troubled by skeletons from his past, battled with inner demons and psychopathic murderers that surface along the way, making his life a living hell. Many women have also paraded in and out of Dexter's life, searching for relationships, pressuring him for the pleasure of his enormous manhood, preventing him from ever experiencing true love. Still, like a rare and precious black rose, Dexter manufactures his relationships pretty much in the same way; however, he still has strong Christian morals and beliefs despite the fact that he is weighed down by numerous women hopping in and out of his bed, while also struggling with ethical odds with his best friend, Marcus, a notorious drug dealer. Their longtime friendship is tested time and again, causing conflict for Dexter, what with knowing Marcus's shady business. Also, there's a baby momma that has a strong interest for interracial relationships, causing Dexter to feel betrayed by the one woman he thought he could trust. Dexter has to decide whether to honor his oath to his corrupt client while clinging to the attorney privileges or do what he feels is morally right as an innocent man's life dangles in the balances. Will Dexter find it all too much for him to bear, or will he add another notch to his belt?
