This 3-book omnibus will send you on an action-packed magical adventure filled with found family, mystery, romance, and humor woven into a tapestry of myths and legends.

My father talked about Atlantic City the way some women talk about their ex-boyfriends. No good. Avoid at all costs. Soul-sucking even without the demons. Never mind that we lived across the country where, by day we worked as mountain guides, and at night he trained me to use my magic—not that I was allowed to showcase it. That was a hard no. So I hid my powers the way he hid his bourbon—until his murder.

He maintained the kingdom's greatest heroes for five years. They cut him for one line on an audit: Combat rating: none assessed. Dorn Vasker is a Caretaker—a "useless" trade class that can't fight, can't cast, and can't be promoted. All he does is keep things working. So when the famous Ninefold Banner drops him to save money, he takes his whetstones downriver, buys a dead man's repair shop in a broken little town, and posts his rates on the wall. Then the System pays him back everything his party's contract stole. Six levels. Twenty-two years of skills, uncapped.

On her last trip outside the academy, Cassia found her caretaker’s killer. But solving one murder doesn’t mean her troubles are over. The Book of Admissions is still missing, and if it falls into the wrong hands, the consequences could be catastrophic. Then a student is murdered, bringing the Watchers back into her life—including the one who once turned her heart inside out.

Problems are like hydra heads these days—the moment Cassia solves one, three more spring up in its place. All she wants is to make it to graduation and finally spend some uninterrupted time with her hot nephilim boyfriend. Unfortunately, fate has other plans.

Lorelei Clay has spent a lifetime keeping her secret. Now that Kane has discovered it, the prince of hell has cut her off but she has no idea why. Not only has he disappeared from her life, he's also disappeared from Fairhaven, and his vampire assistant refuses to divulge his whereabouts. When a series of attacks threatens the town, Lorelei is thrust back into the magical spotlight. This time, she isn't sure she can weather the storm on her own without drawing too much attention to herself and, even worse, endangering the lives of everyone she's come to care about.

Lorelei never believed she would have a place to call home. She’d grown accustomed to hiding, to putting up walls and avoiding interaction with the world around her. Until Fairhaven. Lorelei has grown to love the small town with its multirealm crossroads and the residents who welcomed her with open arms, as well as those who were slow to warm up. She’s fallen in love with a demon prince, and befriended ghosts, a cursed vampire, the werewolf pack, and the Assassins Guild.

Whether its saving a Princess(or three), driving across the the USA with some lovely companions, or following a bard on his adventures with mythical ladies, this collection is full of everything you want to listen to. This omnibus includes: The Portal, the Plumber, and the Princesses; Truck Drivin’ Hero; and Young, Dumb, and Full of Charisma.

It isn’t easy being the liminal deity of a multirealm crossroads, as Lorelei Clay can attest. There are the typical issues, of course, like a wayward god stumbling into Wild Acres, and then there are the more pressing ones… Like an incubus who wakes up with a mysterious mark on his chest and a timer on his life. And the demon with an urgent message for Kane. And the mysterious flying monsters with vengeance in their hearts that threaten the peace and tranquility of Fairhaven.

A law of nature Bryce has seen time and time again in his life. Yet, now he finds himself dragged into the circles of nobility in Witchbrook while acting as a bodyguard for Princess Thea Volson. Watching her warnings about her uncle fall on the deaf ears of the other nobles. Still, that old lesson remains true as Harold Volson sets his sights on Witchbrook and a deadly monster that should be nowhere near the city hunts along its edges.

Alyse Winters survived being burned by her own agency—but survival comes at a cost. Stripped of her djinn powers, Alyse is scraping by as a bounty hunter in Philadelphia while quietly digging into the conspiracy that destroyed her life. When her former Shadow Elite handler turns up dead and an anonymous warning drags her back into the shadows, Alyse realizes her takedown wasn’t an isolated betrayal—it was the opening move.

Xander has always struggled to accept change, but when a maniac with an honest-to-goodness sword singles him out and threatens his life, change will be the least of his worries. Saved by an assassin, Xander learns that he’s a pawn in a game of life, death, and revival. To win, Xander must learn to form alliances he must one day break, dive headlong into fights with people possessing strange powers, and try to resist falling for the girl that just tried to kill him.

Something is awakening in the city—and it wants Alyse Winters. Powerless doesn’t mean harmless. Still trapped in a human body and bound by copper cuffs, former djinn agent Alyse Winters is doing her best to keep the city from tearing itself apart—one supernatural disaster at a time. But when bodies start piling up and magic goes violently wrong, it becomes clear this isn’t business as usual.

When Greg Hadder's mercenary company is tasked with finding a treasure with the power of immortality, he thinks it's a wild goose chase. That is until his brothers-in-arms are gunned down by a rival group, and he's left with nothing but his wits and rifle to survive. Using maps and artifacts, he must navigate traps and find his way to the center of the island to harness the powers of the gods themselves. When he decides to stand his ground against the soldiers bent on stealing the elixir, he calls upon his new allies—a feisty catgirl, an elegant siren, and a cold-blooded lamia—to help him.

Ash was an exile when he first arrived in De’Vas… Since then, he has endured hardships and trials, growing the strength of both himself and his district to survive. He found friends and lovers in his new life, all while building a home. Then the Coalition took him away from all that, casting him into a strange new world, one he had only heard about in stories told by those in De’Vas. Ash needs to find a way back home, back to his friends and loved ones, no matter what it takes.

After almost becoming a monster, Bryce swore off dangerous jobs. No longer taking risky contracts, he's been enjoying easier mercenary work with his team of misfit girls and seeing old friends when they visit the guildhall. When a contract turns into a wash, Bryce and his party take on a new one from a baroness, which triggers a series of strange encounters. Between monsters, assassins, and a crazy gang boss infatuated with him, death is around every corner. Then his former master, Bellamy, seeks him out. But there are some requests you can't turn down.

Not long ago, Ash learned he has a monster living inside him… Now he’s counting down the days and preparing for the inevitable encounter when the elemental is set free. Still, Ash has a District to protect and tasks given to him by the Nightmare Queen. One such task leads to the discovery of a strange device and a tattooed goblin who knows its secrets. As Ash and his friends work to unravel the mystery, some of those close to him experience reunions with old enemies. While sins and memories of Vas haunt District 114, the Coalition emerges from the shadows and sets its sights on Ash.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. That’s the old human saying anyway. For Bryce, it’s a little more literal. He’s a Feral Mage, someone who gains the abilities of monsters by devouring them. This magic has allowed him to excel as a mercenary, rising to the top rank of the guildhall.
