The Latest Releases
Inked (January, 2010)
Four tales of urban fantasy and paranormal romance explore body art that is more than it seems—in a world of magic and mayhem that always leaves it mark . . .
When New York Times bestselling author Marjorie M. Liu’s demon slayer Maxine Kiss investigates a grisly murder, she finds herself involved in a conspiracy dating back to World War Two—and a secret mission that her grandmother may have carried out for the US Government, one that involves the mysterious “Armor of Roses.”
Never After
Here, for the first time ever, are four stories based on the classic idea of the “faerie tale wedding”—except this time, the damsels aren’t the ones in distress.
New York Times bestselling author Marjorie M. Liu tells the tale of a young princess who escapes betrothal to a warlord by entering a magical forest. But when an evil queen sends her on a quest to “The Tangleroot Palace” she faces dangers more perilous than marriage.
Book 9 - The Fire King
Like all agents of Dirk & Steele, Soria has a gift—and hers is communication. When she is chosen to learn the dead language of a shape-shifter resurrected after thousands of years of icy sleep, she discovers a warrior consumed with fury—and a millennia-old price on his head that will threaten both their lives…
Darkness Calls
Nomad born and bred, demon hunter Maxine Kiss has always relied upon herself to fight the darkness that surrounds her, the predators-human, zombie, and otherwise - who threaten the earth. But one man has penetrated her lonely life: Grant, the last of his kind. With music he is able to control any living creature…including demons. And now his life is in danger. Haunted by the past, determined to change the future, Maxine soon understands that to save Grant, she has only one choice—to lose control, and release her own powers of darkness…
