Dawning: Nine Realms Saga
Summary
It’s a story as old as time. Cain and Abel, Adam and Eve. A family. A murder. A reckoning. Good and evil personified. You may think you know the story, but you’d be wrong. After thousands of years, Cain awakens to find that the world has gone on without him. In his slumber, humans and people of power have stopped being afraid of, well, anything. Beyond that, they’ve become cruel for cruelty’s sake, fascinated with their ability to spread death through famine, war, and even plagues. In their minds, they have no equal. They’re wrong. Thanks to the Norns, his brother’s treachery, his sadistic stepmother, and abusive father, Cain has been out of the loop far too long. But that’s about to change. Now, he must reconcile his past with his present and complete a near-impossible task to find the peace he’s sought for so long. Before that can be a reality, he’ll need to walk the fine line between monster and man. Too much of one and not the other will release a plague upon the world. And there will be blood. Lots of it. Can he fight his baser nature long enough to do what needs to be done, or will fate get the better of him in the end?

Rise of the Storm Bringer
Summary
For Viktor Warden, his former in-laws can be murder. Literally. His ex-wife’s family are less than subtle when it comes to leaving messages, especially when they’re spelled out in blood. Now they’re leaving a trail of bodies in their wake, which means his long list of enemies just got longer. Even though he’s used to high risk situations, the stakes take a sharp turn when his daughter is drawn into the fray with absolutely no clear way out. With all that he holds dear hanging in the balance, he must make impossible choices. Each one brings him closer to the answers he’s sought about his past, edging him toward the center of a cosmic war that’s been raging since time began. At every turn, he finds strange and ancient foes, all looking for new ways to wreak havoc on him, his life, and the world itself. He’ll have to fight his way through a veil of secrecy to figure out who’s at the center of his streak of bad luck. His only way out is through an ancient adversary determined to manipulate the future to their ends no matter what the cost. If he fails, he’s dead and the world goes along with him.

Fall of Eleazar: Nine Realms Saga
Summary
Long before Jade was conceived, the Lich Lords meticulously constructed a prophecy that hails her as the key to laying claim to the promised land. Her whole life was orchestrated: every moment of training, every facet of her persona, and every moment of her time. And it worked. The Black Circle, and everyone involved, believes she is a prophet. A savior. A messiah. The problem is, she isn’t interested in the job. All she wants is to escape. Even with status, wealth, influence, and power, her reality conceals a darker truth: being blood cursed at birth. No power is worth that price. When their hold on her mind broke, they resorted to torture to ensure she fell in line. Now free of the Lich Lord’s sway over her, Jade is on the run. Alone, fending off her own desperation and loneliness, she must press forward at all costs. But the centuries of work leading up to her birth mean that those who want to keep her are not about to let the illusion unravel. In order to preserve her freedom, Jade will have to find her own way. That means creating new alliances, learning to trust others, and settle into her true destiny. The way isn’t easy, but she’s used to that. In her quest for independence, her list of enemies just keeps getting longer, and more dangerous. But she’s willing to do whatever it takes to build her own future in this tumultuous world.
