    Davis~ 
    It was just another job—at least it was supposed to be—but snaring the feisty blue dragon I'd been contracted to collect and her rider in my trap changed everything. Hunting dragons was my job, and I was damn good at it. I'd never missed a target. Never failed to make a delivery. So why was every step toward turning over my bounty suddenly a struggle? No quarry had ever managed to get under my skin, but something in Zale's haunting blue eyes called to me like nothing ever had before.Zale~ 
    When Itsaso and I were kidnapped, we fought like hell but found ourselves at the dragon hunter's mercy. He locked my dragon away, leaving me to face captivity alone. Now, all I have to rely on is the training that's been drilled into me every day for as long as I can remember and biding my time, waiting for Davis to make a mistake. Or my brothers to find and rescue us. But something happened the first time I truly looked in Davis's eyes, dark pools as deep and enchanting as the sea, and I realized I was in so much more danger than I thought. How could a ruthless dragon hunter be my perfect mate?

    In The Whisperer in Darkness, H. P. Lovecraft merges cosmic horror with eerie science fiction to deliver one of his most chilling tales of paranoia and the unknown. When Miskatonic University professor Albert Wilmarth investigates strange happenings in the remote hills of Vermont, he uncovers a terrifying conspiracy involving alien entities known as the Mi-Go—fungoid beings from the outer void who can harvest human brains for interstellar travel. As letters, whispers, and shadows close in, Wilmarth’s descent into dread reveals the vast, incomprehensible horror lurking just beyond human understanding. Perfect for readers of dark cosmic fiction, Lovecraft’s 1931 classic remains a cornerstone of the Cthulhu Mythos and modern sci-fi horror alike.

    No human can stop the Toxic Whisperers from plunging Earth into soulless darkness, but Reuben is far from human. Praised by Kirkus Reviews for its “unrelenting action” and “breakneck pace,” Narican: The Cloaked Deception blends science-fiction and metaphysical themes to create an alternate reality full of both emotional depth and twisting adventure.  
    Reuben Mitchell’s 18 years on Earth have taught him what it means to suffer. Despite being consumed by cursed luck, traumatic loss, and recurring nightmares, he refuses to let his demons take hold of his soul. As his inner-world seems to tear in two, the world around him does the same. But where there is darkness, he quickly finds there is light.  
    When Reuben learns that he is one of the last descendants from the planet Narican’s Sun Clan, great supernatural defenders of the soul’s highest order, all of his life’s misfortunes come into perspective. With the aid of a fellow Light Being named Tanz, Reuben decides he must learn to use his inherited powers to help lead the charge against the Toxic Whispers who threaten to destroy his second home, Earth. His godlike alien powers allow him to stand his ground in the face of grave danger. He will fight to protect Earth. He will fight to protect the souls of the innocent. And he will fight to protect the new, makeshift family that brightens his world.

    In the frozen heart of Svalbard, the future is privately owned. 
    Ashton Frey is a washed-up private investigator with a burned-out neural implant and a job he should’ve walked away from. Now he’s chasing a corporate conspiracy from the gutters of Helsinki to the permafrost of the Arctic north. Haunted by his past, hunted by kill teams, and carrying an ego-maniacal AI in his head that won’t shut up. 
    Privatized Freedom is a gritty Nordic cyberpunk thriller soaked in corporate absurdity and razor-edged satire, where AIs are in therapy, assassins offer customer satisfaction surveys, and rebellion comes with a subscription fee.  
    Equal parts high-velocity action and dark comedy, it’s a savage ride through a future that’s already been bought and sold.
