Xlina’s move to Portland, Maine was supposed to be the start of a new life. A normal life. One that didn’t involve her magical-duty-obsessed druid father or her own legacy as a descendant of the Baku: an ancient creature that consumes nightmares. But when the supposed social worker who pointed her toward Portland in the first place turns out to be not-so-human and puts a demon mark on Xlina’s soul, a normal life looks a lot less likely. To survive, she just might need to start listening to necromancer Oxivius, who wants her to embrace her power instead of running from it.

You'd think that after battling a demon, Astrid Knightstorm would deserve a break. No such luck for Austin's premier wizard private detective.

My name is Drood, Eddie Drood, but I should probably change that. My family has cast me out, but that doesn't mean the fight is over. Unfortunately, Eddie's had a falling out with his nearest and dearest - some of whom were trying to kill him, so he has a valid excuse. Now, he and his true love...

My name is Ethan Drake. I'm the cop who works the occult cases nobody else will touch the ones that reek of brimstone and old blood. My partner's a demon.

Wendell Knightsbridge and his demon father Mephistopheles are done waiting. Their plan to murder the Almighty and enslave humanity is in motion. The endgame is here. Heaven's sending angels.

I thought death would be a one-way trip. I was wrong. After a botched assassination attempt, I took a bullet to the heart. That should have put me down for good, but the vampire lord who hired me for the job tied my soul to an Aztec demon.

The supernatural community thinks I’m a traitor, and my own sister thinks I’m a murderer. Our only chance is to ally with the wolves.

It is the moment Simon Logan, the Necromancer, has been waiting for. A daring prison break allows him to escape Templar control and vanish into the night. Newly promoted Captain Riley and the reformed Echo Team are given the job of tracking him down.

Magical gorgons do not exist anymore. Only deformed ones. That’s me. An unmagical, deformed gorgon. While the world's alchemy progression advanced without me, and the enchanters became the dominant rulers of land and sea, my meager status as a vapid allowed me to fly under the radar. That is, if my sleepy serpent remained tucked underneath my long locks. All that changed when a faerie buzzed into my life and brought Huxley slithering from his cocoon.
