The Veil Witches (Realm Watchers Book 3): A Veil Witch Urban Fantasy (The Realm Watchers)

by J. S. Malcom

Autumn Winters has just started tapping into her powers as a witch. Someone wants to make sure she doesn't finish.

Dark magic is being used to kill witches and vampires keep turning up dead in alleys. Autumn’s best friend remains missing, almost certainly at the hands of supernatural entities, while nightly prowling of the city’s paranormal haunts has turned up no clues. Autumn has no idea how what’s going on involves her, but something tells her that she's definitely connected. Little does she know that things are just starting to heat up.

Soon, Autumn learns that her only respite—a recurring fantasy within which she visits her dead husband—is no fantasy at all. Instead, she’s been entering an all too real Death Realm, one in which a demon holds her husband trapped. Now, she must decide whether she can withstand what it will take to free him—a risk ensuring that, at best, she’ll never see him again, but that may leave her forever lost. As Autumn and her sister continue to come into their powers as witches, clearly someone out there views them as being too great a threat in the shifting balance of supernatural power. A dark force wants them gone. And clearly, that same force will stop at nothing—including murdering those they love—to make sure that Autumn Winters and her sister don’t lay claim to their natural legacy as veil witches.

The Veil Witches is the third book in the Realm Watchers urban fantasy series, where nothing is as it seems and only a thin veil exists between our world and another full of ghosts, vampires, magical creatures and other trans-dimensional intruders who walk alongside us unseen by anyone but the realm watchers.

It will be divided and, in great part, submerged . . . For in none of those cities does a person live according to the Laws of God. A powerful wind will rise in the North, carrying heavy fog and the densest dust, and it will fill their throats and eyes so that they will cease their butchery and be stricken with a great fear. ~Saint Hildegard (12th Century)

Black Spark (Dark Magic Enforcer Book 1)

by Al K. Line

I watched in horror as dark magic sprang from my hand faster than an imp after your socks. I didn’t know my name, let alone that I had such power. The man was dead. I panicked. I ran.

But my memory is returning, and the Hidden have given me twenty-four hours to make amends. Cover it up. Finish the job I was given, or else. Failure isn’t an option. Well, it is, but I like me, and I like being alive.

The clock is ticking as I battle to make things right and exact revenge on those that took so much from me. Easier said than done as I deal with angry mages, bitey zombies, oversexed imps, creepy necromancers, and grumpy trolls—and those are just my friends!—all while trying to stop myself falling in love with my best friend, Kate, who just so happens to be a hot vampire.

I’m Faz Pound, a.k.a. Black Spark, Dark Magic Enforcer, and time is running out.

At least I have my looks. For now.

Dissension (Chronicles of the Uprising Book 1)

by

The great cataclysm wiped almost all life from the face of planet Earth, but tiny pockets of survivors crawled from the ashes, with only one thought: survival, at any cost.
But not all survivors were human.
In the dark, militant society that has risen in the aftermath, vampires, once thought to be mythical, have been assimilated and enslaved. Used for blood sport their lives are allowed to continue only for the entertainment of the masses. Reviled as savages, they are destined to serve out their immortal lives in the arena, as gladiators.
And there is no greater gladiator than Mira: undefeated, uncompromising...and seemingly unbreakable. When an escape attempt leads Mira into the path of Lucian Stavros, the city’s Regent, her destiny is changed forever.
Lucian, raised in a culture which both reviles and celebrates the savagery and inhumanity of vampires, finds Mira as intriguing as she is brash. An impulsive decision - to become Mira’s patron – changes more than just Lucian’s perception about vampire kind. The course of his life is altered in ways he could never have predicted – a life that is suddenly as expendable as hers.
Can Mira prove to Lucian that all is not as it seems? Can Lucian escape centuries of lies, bloodshed, and propaganda to see the truth? Or will the supreme power of the human overlords destroy them both?
