The ruins in the hills above Mély’s family’s farm have always been a place of escape for her. But one day a stranger appears and claims them as her own, and draws the attention of mages in the process. Can Mély fend off the stranger and save her forest refuge? What magic secrets of its past will she uncover? This is a short story.
After surviving being kidnapped by the Karume mage Berick, becoming a dragon rider, and discovering she was a mage, Tesa has a lot to adjust to. In between attending make-up magic classes, dragon training lessons, and simply learning her way around the big city of Areth, Tesa can't help but try to uncover the secret behind the symbol-engraved stones Berick used to enslave her. With all her new dragon rider friends away from the city searching for the stolen egg and kidnapped guard, Tesa must find new friends and allies as she searches for the answer to the spellstones. What she finds may put her--and the dragons--in more danger than ever before.
In Arethia, bound magic is forbidden, and only mages wield free magic. Keveren Auberel is not a mage, and her magic is not bound magic. Or is it? With a magic that isn’t supposed to exist, Kev seeks answers for herself, her friends, and the traders at the Onami Fair. But what she finds may put them all in danger. Armed with a sketchbook and magic pet rat sidekicks, Keveren Auberel sets out to solve her next mystery in Stolen Magic at the Onami Fair.
Dragons and their riders protect Arethia’s borders and keep peace within the land, along with the mages who work alongside them. Nobody knows why, but only women can bond with dragons to be their riders. But now, the dragons have been kidnapped by a mage who wants to change that, and the remaining dragon riders have to find out where he’s taken them. Arethia’s safety is now left to the mages, and Karume mages using the forbidden bound magic begin creeping into Arethia while the search for the missing dragons is stalled. Can Tesa and her friends bring the dragons back to Arethia before it’s too late? Will the Karume change the way magic is used in Arethia forever?
A thief is stealing magic fire agate jewelry in the dock market, and the Mirella city mage guard thinks that Keveren Auberel did it. Kev, the dockmaster’s daughter, must clear her name to remove the mage mark on her hand and be allowed to return to school. And she thinks she knows who is behind the thefts. But when fires start breaking out in the dock markets, a boy goes missing, and dragon riders get involved, the mystery keeps getting stranger. Can Kev discover the truth without putting herself in danger?
Dragon riders hardly ever come to Enval, the small mountain town where Tesa lives. Yet she has dreamed of being a rider ever since she was a little girl, the last time the dragons came. One day, dragons fly over, and Tesa is the only one who can help an injured dragon. Leaving her farm and home behind, she agrees to travel with the dragon riders--for a bit. Yet a brush with dangerous rock dragons and vindictive mages drag her into the riders' quest and bring her closer and closer to the city of Areth, capital of Arethia, and the place where Tesa has a chance to fulfill her dream of becoming a dragon rider.
A collection of five short stories about tiny magical beings. In this collection, fairies infest a yarn store, tiny dragons flock to a pepper garden, a farmers' market sells fairies in a jar, and more. Settings in the stories are inspired by the author's hometown of Duluth, Minnesota.
Criminal underworld meets literal underworld… The mayor may think he runs things in Jarvis, but the rest of us know better. Vincent Dean’s criminal empire controls the illicit trade that is the lifeblood of the city. And Ruby McGinniss, however adeptly she plays the part of his empty-headed trophy wife, controls Vincent Dean. As someone who’s made a career out of helping the little guy get justice, I’d happily watch their corrupt empire burn. But now they’ve made a demon mad, and I’m the only one in town with the know-how to save them. Which would be too bad for them—if they were the only ones in danger. The thing is, they’ve got a little girl whose only crime is being born to the wrong parents, and she’s in Hell’s crosshairs too. Let an innocent child die, or help her parents keep on getting away with literal murder? Put it this way—it won’t be the first time I’ve fought for the bad guys. And hey, at least Dean and McGinniss are the devils I know. So long as they don’t have any tricks up their sleeves.
Fun with Nic and Jane I keep women at a distance for a reason. Jane most of all. She thinks my life in the shadows is exciting and glamorous. I know better. If I let her get too close, my world will eat her alive. But when her ex gets himself into the kind of trouble I specialize in solving, she’s got nowhere else to turn. What am I supposed to do? Watch her get herself killed trying to save the guy on her own? I’ve got no choice but to let her into my office. Doesn’t mean I’m letting her into my life. Because I’ve got a bad feeling this is no ordinary demon problem. This smells like Heaven’s work to me… and considering the well-deserved grudge that place has against me, by my side is the last place anyone should be.
Nic Ward is on the highway to Hell… Beelzebub, lord of Hell, used to want me dead. Now he wants to hire me. The job: track down Lucifer, who’s been MIA since the war in Heaven. There’s one catch: with God dead, Lucifer is now the most powerful being in the universe… and he clearly doesn’t want to be found. I don’t relish the thought of being the one to interrupt his vacation. But the money is good. The prospect of getting off Beelzebub’s shit list is better. And the world’s been a mess since the Last War—might be nice to have someone around who’s capable of cleaning it up. With him on the case, maybe I could take a real vacation myself one of these days. So my team and I are going on a road trip to track down Hell’s most high-profile missing person. Just an ex-Inquisitor, a rogue priest, a hellhound the size of a small bear… and me, the fallen angel who drove a sword through God’s heart.
