New Releases for December 2023

The Witch of Tut

by D.A. Spruzen

December 1, 2023

It is their job to protect the mortal realm, but are secrets the only way they can protect each other?

Lin Thorene, a beautiful Norse goddess turned private detective, embarks on a new case to locate a missing girl in London. But the fantastical always has a way of finding her. During her investigation, she meets Agna, the goddess Freya’s witch and former protector of King Tutankhamun.

Meanwhile, Lin’s personal biographer Mary Lambert is contending with her new role as mother to a demigod. When Lin returns to their suburban home near Washington D.C., Agna in tow, Mary is tasked with keeping a secret that, if broken, could lead to their own personal Ragnarok.

The Fall of the House of Otter

by Leo Sparx

December 1, 2023

One of the world’s most infamous macabre stories reimagined as queer erotica.

If you’ve ever wondered what the sinister world of Edgar Allan Poe would look like filled with gay men, then this story is for you!

“Erotically wicked! Spellbinding! A unique trans-inclusive retelling of ‘The Fall of the House of Usher.’”

“A wildly inventive labyrinth of dark extravagance with gay otter men and romance at the story’s heart.”

At the edge of a sleepy seaside town stands a mansion nearly as tall as the rumors about its mysterious owner. The house beckons to an out of work sex worker named Alexander who soon finds himself in a whirlwind of strange decadence.

But this sudden luxury comes at a price. Rules must be followed. Secrets kept. There is an order to the seemingly enchanted building that must be appeased.

Hustler turned live-in pet, Alexander must navigate his way through bizarre rituals and BDSM training while he battles his frozen heart. Has he fallen in love with the stoic but forceful man who now rules over him or will a handsome friend from Alexander’s past be the key to unlocking the secrets of Usher’s bizarre world?

Modern kink collides with old magic in this haunting tale of jockstraps, bondage, and sexual hierarchy.

Maxan wields unimaginable power, it is up to him how he uses it.

Maxan, a young fox, serves his city as a spy, scout, and informant. He is meant to only observe, but defies his orders to stop an unspeakable evil. He is now tied to a weapon of immeasurable power, capable of driving every animal into a violent frenzy.

Desperate for answers, Maxan is drawn into an eternal war between The Monitors and The Mind, both vying for control of the powerful artifacts hidden deep below and far above their world. While The Minders want only to keep the artifacts safe and dormant, the cult of The Mind wants to use them to take over the world.

Immune to the weapon that he now holds, Maxan must uncover the secrets of his world and find a better path for all animalkind. Will that path reveal him to be a puppet, a puppeteer, or perhaps something more?

The Conspiracy of the Ravens

by Nelson McKeeby

December 10, 2023

His brain destroyed by epilepsy and his body wracked with Stevens-Johnson syndrome, an author sits down to pen his last book.

It’s a tale of Rains-a-Lot, the warrior who ate Thomas Custer’s heart; Ivy d’ Seille, a child soldier and veteran of the French Resistance; Dr. Kelle Brainerd, holder of three Ph.D.s in Reality Physics; and a purple 1957 Chevy concealing the spirit of a New Orleans Macumba from the 19th century as they run into a wizard, a shadowy Company, and a whole bunch of ravens.

But no story is just a story, and our author isn’t just an author.

The reviewers are raving about the War of the Ravens series.

”…ten pounds of crazy in a five pound sack.” — A famous musician who refused to give her name.

“…everything that is wrong with the 420 movement.” —an anonymous Iowan politician.

“You will never publish this crap in a million years…”— A writing professor in New England.

Before the Storm: A Steel & Thunder Prequel

by Dominic N. Ashen

December 13, 2023

Haven’t you ever wondered how your parents met?

Orlun and Rurig have been married for a long time. Things may have gotten a little less exciting after having three children together, but it’s their life, and they wouldn’t trade it for anything else. So when a civil war threatens to tear apart their home and has them both working with the city’s militia, they’re not exactly happy about it.

Jarek is a new recruit. Young and maybe a little naïve, he’s a lover, not a fighter—but he’ll do what he has to if it means protecting the people he cares about. Which might include Orlun and Rurig. There’s something brewing between the three of them, but is it strong enough to survive when tragedy strikes?

This is a story about romance, awkward dates, and questionable parenting decisions. Set over twenty years before the events of Steel & Thunder, this prequel tells the tale of how these three men found each other and formed a family in the face of danger and uncertainty. This novella is for readers who like gay/male-on-male polyamorous romances with a heaping helping of orcs.

Dystopia

by Rick Heinz

December 16, 2023

There is a price to magic, even if bottled for consumption.

Magic has exploded back into the world, bringing with it creatures of myth and legend. After the initial shock, corporations found a way to turn magic into profit. The occult “gold rush” at the forefront of magically imbued politics built a world of wealth inequality, greed, and innovation.

Bartender Jane Auburn is an early adopter of a new drug sponsored by Pelican Pharmaceuticals that allows her to move at the speed of vampires and match the strength of demons. How bad could the side effects possibly be? After all, as it says in all their commercials, “Elcoll: it keeps you going even when you’re dead!”

Jane finds herself embroiled in occult corporate warfare, and to save her own life, she will need to uncover what other skeletons these new magical companies are hiding.

Aestrangel the Chosen

by Maria DeVivo

December 17, 2023

In the epic battle of Good versus Evil, there can be only one victor.

To free herself from her relentless nightmares, Aestra, the fallen angel, makes a deal with the devil. But Lucifer’s deals have dire consequences; robbed of the knowledge of what cast her out of heaven, Aestra cannot escape Lucifer’s domain. The only way out is through.

With no one left to turn to, Aestrangel reunites with her former adversary, Malek, to complete another Calling that would solidify her position in the devil’s domain. But when her power—and her feelings for Malek—intensify, this mission could end up altering the balance between Heaven, Hell, and the human world forever.

The Vilification of Aqua Marine

by Megan Mackie

December 26, 2023

One parent is a superhero. One parent is a supervillain. Aqua Marine is a work in progress.

Despite Aqua Marine’s super lineage, the wannabe superhero can only control a cup of water at a time—which is not very effective as far as superpowers go. She has no chance at stopping the new nefarious villain, the Overlord of the Dance, from taking over part of the city. That is until she accidentally discovers there is a cup of water in the human heart when she blows his out.

Now her villainous mother wants her to join the League of Extraordinary Evil. Aqua Marine would like to hide under a rock. And her new nemesis, the Overlord of the Dance, is apparently not quite dead yet and would like to have a word with her.

If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, Aqua Marine’s is a slip and slide … with capes.

Silverblood Scion

by Megan Mackie

December 27, 2023

“You cannot command a demon unless you have struck a deal with it, and we have not yet struck such a deal.”

Elaine was meant to be the light for her people—the last of the Scions of Isa. But her goddess died long ago, and she is hunted for the inherent magic in her silver blood. After being condemned as a human sacrifice by Lord Dakin, a demon makes her a tempting counteroffer. If Elaine frees him from his prison, he will be hers to command.

Demonlord Acies wants revenge just as much as he wants to escape from his prison cell. Elaine could be the key, and she’s a pretty one. But Acies’ past haunts his present and the consequences of the war he once fought between gods and demons is never too far away.

Wielding the power of demons can mean the difference between salvation and damnation … for both of them.

The General Worldbuilding Guide

by JM Paquette

September 1, 2023

As a writer, I like to think I know everything about my characters and the world they inhabit.

But do I? I certainly don’t always recall those details—and definitely not when I need them most. Cue the dive down an internet rabbit hole for the next hour instead of continuing to write my draft. There’s a time for writing, and there’s a time for worldbuilding—and they aren’t the same!

Use this book to build your world in all its glory, so that the next time those townsfolk are suspicious of strangers, you know what happened the last time they trusted someone who walked into town from the world beyond. Just imagine, when you sit down to write, already knowing the answers to questions like:

What is that song on the radio at the bar?
How long does it take to drive from Town A to Town B?
Who established that law about bathtubs in the street?
Where is the best place to get a burger in this town?
When did that family take over the monarchy?

Tackling everything from creation myths and cultural practices to building relationships and measuring time, this worldbuilding guide has the questions and activities you need to help you craft a believable world for your story.

I’ve known my husband’s name since I was twelve years old: Chike Nagi, Crown Prince of Ebele. On our wedding day, as he led me in a dance throughout the untamed wilds, I wondered, “Is this what falling in love feels like?” Or was it just the savannah heat?

As a diplomat, I am accustomed to navigating different social spheres, but love is another beast altogether. I have been taught that love isn’t as important as power. But when his hand touches mine, I feel strong.

We couldn’t have known how rapidly our whole world was about to change.
