What's a wounded and lonely little cinnamon roll to do? Stripped of his psychic powers, Calico Winghorse flees his homeworld and travels to 19th century Earth via his inter-dimensional portal. As a mixed-blood phoenix trapped in human form, he opens a bakery in the San Francisco Bay Area and quietly nurses his wounds. But the unique method of his arrival draws the unwanted attention of Infinity Corporation. Representing this angelic-run company is Agustin Chavez de la Cruz, the Demon Lord of California. Even though Agustin is IC's heir, he finds himself demoted from his duties to concentrate on his new assignment: take absolute control of Calico's portal. But Calico refuses to sell at any price. He is also very busy ensuring that the good people of the city are getting their fill of baked goods. Before Agustin can formulate a more gracious avenue of acquiring the gateway, the demanding head of IC interferes, further complicating matters. So as negotiations stumble along, Calico and Agustin come to realize they both want more than a stuffy business arrangement. However, due to Calico's injuries, the portal remains vulnerable to the darker forces that want it at any cost. Agustin will have to push both his angelic heritage, as well as his own psychic powers to the very limits to heal this sweet baker, who is also the portal world's God of Space and Time. The Demon Lord of California is the first book of an LGBTQ+ paranormal-fantasy series.

Summary: The Impossible Point is a short, unsettling novella that blends psychological thriller and sporting reportage to dig into the hidden mechanisms of modern elite tennis. The story opens on the day before a memorable grass-court match in England between Grigor Dimitrov and Jannik Sinner. Dimitrov is playing some of the best tennis of his career, Sinner is the rising star with all the spotlight on him. Twenty-four hours later, a single point ends with Dimitrov clutching his chest, retiring injured, disappearing from the tournament – and quietly fading from the media stage as well. The crowd sees bad luck. The headlines talk about “one of those things that happen in sport.” But the slow-motion replays don’t quite add up. As the media rush to fix the narrative, cracks start to show in the spotless surface of the tour: strange coincidences, scripted rivalries, silent edits to the official story. Is it all just human error and bias, or is there a System deciding who gets to win, who must lose, and what the public is allowed to see? Mixing Philip K. Dick–style paranoia with almost forensic analysis of a single impossible rally, The Impossible Point asks a simple question with disturbing consequences: what if tennis was never just a game?

Summary: In volume three of this widely-praised dark fantasy anthology series, the Night Bazaar, a secret marketplace of the rare, strange, occult, and dangerous, journeys to 19th century London. There, as usual, its vendors will purvey curious services, forbidden wares, and rare objects which cannot be had elsewhere, for any price. The midnight market has operated throughout history in various locales, appearing in a city for one week only, never to return. This time the Bazaar’s proprietress, the enigmatic and unflappable Madame Vera, escorts the reader on an eerie, fantastical British tour in ten linked short stories by various authors. Some tales feature such recognizable luminaries as Sherlock Holmes, occultist Madam Blavatsky, and Queen Anne Boleyn. Several take place during the Bazaar proper, while others occur earlier or later, tied to its 1880 London appearance by a curse or spell – or, by an object found, inherited, purchased, or stolen during the decades since, by the unsuspecting, foolish, or greedy (though seldom the completely innocent). Together, these ten linked stories take readers on a fantastical journey into astonishment, dread, and dark delight. The Night Bazaar still holds everything you’ve read about but thought had passed away, or perhaps never existed at all. How wrong you were! But be warned: as usual, each object or service comes with a gift, a curse, or a haunting. NOTE: THE VOLUMES IN THIS SERIES MAY BE READ IN ANY ORDER YOU LIKE!

Summary: THE CONTINUING STORY OF GIDEON SHO, L'SANA M'RAS, PRINCESS ARIZELLE AND FREDERICK THE FIRST!!! GET YOUR POST APOCALYPTIC ON!!!! (THIS IS A DIRECT CONTINUATION OF THE FIRST SERIES -- NOCTURNE) Gideon had been dreaming and dreaming and dreaming, a dream he never seemed to able to wake from. And to call it a dream was as broken a description as a child could crayon draw. A nightmare mired in the macabre was the signpost planted in the blood of its concrete. A nightmare shivving his spine and soul with every moment it crawled forward It was filled with all those he loved, calling for him, pleading, screaming, to save them, to help them and yet he could do nothing but sleep, nothing but dream, circling on repeat over and over again. And the images were a caricature of a reality cracked in madness, Shira and So'Sha, grown, blades and death in their eyes, Shadow and Moon standing on two legs, L'Sana and Ari in a cage dreaming their own dreams, chained in their own devils, flashing images of a universe at war with itself, the Shadowborn whispering again and again 'Soon Gideon, soon....be ready.." He wanted to shatter his prison, wanted to howl, wanted to reach out to those that were his world, his everything but only sleep and dream, sleep and dream...the true War had come and he was drowning within his own mind, choking on the detritus of impotency, eternity in chains that didn't give a shit. "I will slaughter them all!!" Gideon would wake and people would die, a thousand times over they would die!!! He screamed this at himself, over and over, lost in the dream, in the macabre broken of breaking. It was the prayer he kept lamenting to no-one, kept spitting into the pillow of his insanity as the bars to his cage, tightened, crushing his flesh and his hope, endlessly cruel, endlessly ambivalent. He would wake, a promise, and a killer would come with him. -- Romance -- Progression -- LitRPG -- Multi-Versal Factions -- Gods -- GrimDark -- Classes, Levels, Skills, Abilities -- Dragons -- Dragonling Companion -- Horror

We first meet Justin here when his mother summons he and his five siblings to a church celebration in 2012. There, Justin recalls his past with that church and meets a fanatic who tries to take his spirit down. Justin uses the strength of his own faith to fight off a demon and then must decide whether real family has value in a world of rejection and abuse. "The First Knight Shaman" is told from Rodney Knight's view. Peter's entry into manhood is the primary focus of "The Second Book of the Knight Shamans." Here, in "The Third Book of the Knight Shamans," Justin is the focus as he works through religious fanaticism and resurgent diseases to save the small community he founded only years before the great quakes devastated the western United States.

Then they discover the religion which had dominated their world in the centuries before the cataclysm has fallen when Peter meets a fallen archangel in his quest to get a medical doctorate in the far-off city-state of Reno.
