Darke Realms: The In-Between (Arcana 1)


Book Description

My name is Rue Mohanahan.. I've always known I was different, but I didn't know to what degree of different I was until the day that monster attacked me all those years ago. I escaped with my life . . . barely. For fifteen years the Dark one has pursued me. I've evaded him all this time by never settling down . . . until now. All those years on the run, I was always alone. Now I'm surrounded by the paranormal - wolves, witches, and monsters that dwell deep in the dark. I've met my alpha wolf mate, Michael, and it's hard to get close. I still live with the things the Dark one did to me. How can I open myself up to the possibility of a never-ending love and a happily ever after when I can see the Dark coming? It's hard to imagine finally living my life when I was born to fight a war I might not survive. The universe has a cruel sense of humor that I've never appreciated, especially now that I stand to lose everything I've ever wanted or will ever love.

Algol Asylum


Book Description

ALGOL APOCALYPSE. DAWN OF THE DEMON STAR. An unprecedented cosmic event - the Algol Parallax - wreaks havoc throughout the galaxy and spells disaster for planet Earth. Civilisation collapses. On the eve of annihilation Dr Thomas Lewis, director of Wyvern Abbey asylum, confronts the institution's most notorious inmate, Andromeda Polidori, leader of a doomsday cult whose esoteric doctrine may hold the key to salvation. His investigations propel Lewis deep into the savage heart of darkness - the emerald inferno - that has transformed the world beyond recognition ... a fantastic odyssey that culminates with the revelation of his own magickal destiny and the fate of all life. ALGOL ASYLUM combines the stylistic tropes of Gothic science fiction, Surrealism and Romanticism with the arcane symbolism of the occult, alchemy and Gnostic philosophy to create an apocalyptic epic of baleful power, invoking the radical experiments of iconic visionaries such as Aleister Crowley, HP Lovecraft, JG Ballard and Philip K Dick.
