Collection: Fantasy

The Mistress of the Keep has died. A force is sweeping through Aggar that is blinding the Seers, making it impossible to locate budding Blue Sights and potential Shadows just as heavy anti-Blue Sight sentiment is building across the world. As the new, young Mistress of the Keep struggles to pull the sacred institution back together, Elana and her Amazon companion, Di'Nay, are tasked with finding the source of the seers' blindness while locating and securing safe passage to the Keep for as many vulnerable young Blue Sights as possible along the way. Their mission will take them through the deepest, darkest wilds of Aggar - far from the familiar territories around the Keep and northern mountains they've explored before - as they fight to save Aggar's most vulnerable.

Three women of Aggar. Three women so different, they may as well be from worlds as vast and varied as their ancestors. The face of Aggar has changed - war, conflict, healing, secrets - but these three will come to find that their similarities are as deep a bond as was ever formed. The vast desert calls and the whispers of changelings beckon. Cultures have risen and fallen across the land but some things remain constant even as everything is about to change.

Jacquin the dancer. Adrian the warmage. Rox the hired sword. They are all more than they appear to be. They all carry secrets and stories. They will begin strangers and become something startling and new.

Royal Marshal Gwyn of the Amazons of Aggar travels into danger to aid and protect Blue Sighted Llinolae, the ruler of Khirla, a city plagued by Terran raids. But magic is afoot, political plots brew and these two women may need the advice of two who lived hundreds of years before, Diana n'Athena and Elana n'Sappho.

Before her death in July 1997, beloved lesbian-feminist author Chris Anne Wolfe published two of her four classic Amazon adventure novels - "Shadows of Aggar" and "Fires of Aggar." These two volumes are only the first half of the Aggar cycle. Chris Anne also published two stand-alone novels, the time-bending romance, "Annabel and I," and the retelling of Beauty and the Beast, "Roses and Thorns." The manuscripts of Chris Anne's remaining novels, short stories, poetry and songs, were willed to publisher and friend, Jennifer DiMarco. These hand-written volumes include both remaining Aggar books - "Sands of Aggar" and "Oceans of Aggar" - and more than a dozen retold fairy tales and original fantasy and contemporary novels.

Hali just wants to get out of the kingdom that turned against the sirens-their kind.

Audra just wants to get through the rest of her father's reign so she can take the throne and make things right.

A chance encounter sends the two into a whirlwind secret romance. Hali and Audra have to work together to find a balance between safety and happiness as tensions are brewing stronger than ever. Three princes sent to court the princess and sirens appear to aid the fallen pod, while the king continues to be dead set on killing all sirens... Hali included.

For fans of Nghi Vo, P. Djèlí Clark, and Alix E. Harrow: a new stand-alone set in the world of the critically acclaimed Murder and Magic series during Prohibition. The Improvisers is the tale of Velma, a barnstorming pilot and former magic bootlegger, who pursues dangerous enchanted items and a mystery that crosses the US and cuts through time--right to the heart of her family's past and present.

Velma Frye is many things. A pilot, a former bootlegger, a well-seasoned traveler, a jazz pianist...and a wielder of celestial magic. She's also a member of the mystical Rhodes family as well as an investigator for arcane oddities for a magic rights organization, dealing with both simple and complicated cases. And when a pocket watch instigates a magical brawl after one of her flight shows, things become very complicated.

In 1930s America, enchanted items are highly valuable, especially in the waning days of the magical Prohibition. As Velma digs deeper, she discovers the watch is part of a collection of dangerous artifacts manipulating people across the country--and in some cases, leading to their deaths. Something about all this is tickling Velma's memories, and the more she discovers, the more these seemingly isolated incidents feel as if they're building to something apocalyptic.

Connecting the dots isn't easy, though, and further complicating her work is journalist Dillon Harris. He hounds her steps, and while not actively sabotaging her investigation, he also clearly knows more than he lets on. Whether it's his presence that she finds so vexing or his easygoing charm, that's a mystery she isn't interested in solving. Because someone is out there seeding cursed objects with the intent on wreaking havoc, and Velma will have to use every trick in her tool kit, including some well-placed magical improvisation, to win the day.

Focusing on a new generation of the Rhodes family, The Improvisers brims with charming magic, intriguing mystery, and high-flying adventure seeking new heights.

Respect his mind. Protect his body. Cherish his heart. These sacred vows forever bond two men with love and devotion, but in the ancient city of Arachovia, such a union comes with a price.

Matthias, the first-born son of the House of Helianth, has one path to inherit his family's power and wealth: marrying a respectable woman and fathering children to carry the bloodline. Despite his obligations, the young noble jeopardizes his family's honor to devote himself to his lover, Anton. But when Anton refuses to sacrifice his own familial duty and marries a random noblewoman, Matthias finds himself without a lover, title, or future.

Acting with little thought for his safety, Matthias condemns himself to the bloody, demanding, and often brief life of a soldier. His survival will depend on mastery of an arcane weapon, trust in the other soldiers of his unit, and a captain with a mysterious past.

Matthias soon finds a renewed sense of purpose alongside his shield-brothers, a sacred order of magic-wielding priestesses on the battlefield, and another chance to experience true love. But when the machinations of a neighboring city-state and a group of ambitious nobles threaten the peace they have fought so hard to maintain, Matthias and his companions discover their actions will either save their world or destroy it.
