Synopsis

Jimmy’s spirit-daughter has awakened, and Heaven and Hell are shaken to their foundations.

Having absorbed the deadly power of the fallen angel Tamiel, Else is a threat to angels and demons alike. To protect her, Jimmy must keep her existence a secret until she and his coven are strong enough to defend themselves.

The answer may lie in an ancient sword the coven is called upon to locate for the demoness Amira – a blade of great power with connections to succubus Katarina and Jimmy’s warrior girlfriend MJ, as well as the shadowy Breamstone Collective.

As the armies of Purgatory lay siege to his dream castle and the efforts to protect Else spin out of control, Jimmy must make a final, fateful decision to forge his own destiny at last.

Apotheosis is the fifth novel in the Demon Hunter series and contains explicit adult scenes and themes of black magic and demonology.

Monster’s Mercy

★ 4.5

William D. Arand

An existence spent being forced to kill others to satiate a Monster. Where the only thing to look forward to was the blessed, if brief, period of time between paying that bribe. Except that very same Monster is and isn’t Rene. It just happened to live inside his own mind and force him to do what it wanted. Rather than being an actual Monster. That was Rene’s entire life until a fateful day changed that. A day that the career as a hitman for hire built on the Monster’s needs will end. Where Rene will be forced to atone for his actions. To be held accountable and judged. Except the verdict is already long since passed and needs no deliberation. His sentence was being sent hundreds of years into the past, into a different world even, where he must live a life for the betterment of others. Every action judged as it happens and weighed out against him.
But even this new idyllic life he’s been living in for eighteen years is about to go off the rails and Rene will be forced back into a life lived in the underworld. Armed with a few gifts granted to him by the one who judged him, gifts better suited to a fantasy about living in a video game, Rene has to maneuver his way back to his new life while using all the things he’d learned in his old one. Except using those skills is a double-edged sword. If he’s not careful, he’ll end up right back where he started. Dead and on his way to hell.

Warning and minor: This novel contains graphic violence, undefined relationships/harem, unconventional opinions/beliefs, forced political marriage (and consummation), and a hero who is as tactful as a dog at a cat show. Read at your own risk.

Warlock: Book 3

★ 4.65

Daniel Kensington

After exposing a genocidal plot, fighting the Patriarchy, and throwing a vampire into a wall, I thought I was done with the weird stuff - silly warlock.

Vernal break is over, and I’m back at Willowmere College with more witches in my coven, stronger magic, and a growing reputation as the warlock nobody saw coming.

Too bad the Witches Council thinks I’m too dangerous to let roam free.

Now I’m facing questions I don’t know how to answer—about my lineage, my power, and a past I didn’t even know I had.

My coven is stronger than ever, but that just paints a bigger target on our backs. Some Families want to bind me. Some still want me dead. And someone's seeking to unleash an ancient power, long sealed in shadow and bringing only war, death, and madness in its wake.

This semester, surviving midterms might be the least of my problems.

Book 3 continues the magic school series with more danger, deeper bonds, and a coven that won’t back down.

Swing Shift 2

★ 4.42

William D. Arand

Reports to write, forms to fill, coffee to drink, leads to run down.

Gus’s life had been a tedium and boredom he’d grown comfortable with. One that he sought out after he’d come back from his tour of duty.

That was before Melody, a contractor, more or less blew his life up as if it were a building packed full of c4. Then pranced around the ashes of it like it was the end of the world and she was conjuring up the end times herself.

All while breaking in a rookie by the name of Vanessa into the PID. A gung-ho and eager young detective looking to prove herself.

Then commandeering and recruiting a cleaning lady that turned out to be an Elven Dryad Sorceress who viewed killing people as little more than emptying the trash can.

Gus had lived through it though. Made it work for him and had come out of it without too many new scars.

An adventure that he hadn’t wanted any part of that involved the Fed being blowed up, a stadium full of Paras all going into a feral rage, and breaking off a plot hatched by what felt like an organization that rivaled the Fed.

Which apparently was all in a day’s work, right up until they fired you for doing that work because you made the brass look bad.

Without a job, more people relying on him than ever, and no direction, Gus is going to have to put on his big boy pants and figure something out. And soon.

It’s a good thing that he’s a Boogieman.

Because being an apex predator that made the entirety of the Paranormal world fear him was something he could fall back on. He could lean into it and make it work for him.

He’d done it before when he was in the military.

Made a name for himself out there in the bloody desert.

He was The Hunter.

A name that the Elven mothers now used to instill fear into misbehaving children. A name that grown men and women wouldn’t discuss in polite company.

Except, despite Gus’s best intentions to get back to his stable non-life, he’s going to get thrown right back into the fray. Whether he likes it or not, he’s about to be handed a new problem that’s going to mess up what little remained of his life.

Unfortunately, his past was going to catch up to him and meet up with his future.
