The Goblin's Trilogy #2 Nearly six years have passed since the goblin king and queen overthrew Queen Mab, took ownership of the Unseelie court and turned their kingdom into an empire. Life could not be any better for the goblin king and his human bride. Knut has recovered well from his ordeal and has taken up the mantle of the emperor with his usual unbridled enthusiasm. Matilda has settled into the life of an empress and mother both surprisingly happily. Their twins, Fritjof and Floki, just learned to stab things properly, their youngest, Odd, is learning to speak more than just growl and Matilda's currently expecting her fourth child. For the first time in her entire life, Matilda truly feels content. However, when she is betrayed in the worst possible way by a trusted friend and she suffers an unbearable tragedy, Matilda's thirst for more is awoken like a slumbering beast. Her grief will turn her into a monster. A monster that will stop at nothing to protect the goblin's throne and bring suffering to all those that would dare try to claim it. Special thanks to @thisrosewillneverdie for the stunning covers and banner she made!

Jordan Haverford has three names and a target on his head. Suffering from a dead Angel's torture, split between crime and magic, and faced with his worst job yet, the last thing he needs is a blood debt. - The light season has arrived in Nictaven, and with it the city of Shadow's Reach is rebuilding after the ravages of the past season. But the threat of war hangs heavy over the new peace as the High Lord Harkenn recovers from an assassination attempt, and it doesn't look as though the Angels are finished. Despite the tense political atmosphere, Jordan's time with the assassins' guild has only increased, and creeping ever closer is the job its leader has forced on him, the one thing he vowed he'd never do - murder. Add to that the threat of retribution for the Angel he helped kill - and who left him with scars he's not sure he will ever recover from - and the fact that he can't seem to get along with his sister Grace anymore no matter how hard he tries, the light season has not brought him the salvation he had hoped. It's about to get a whole lot worse. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED © S E Harrison/giveitameaning 2022 Cover Photo by Duncan Sanchez on Unsplash

A #1 Amazon Charts bestseller, available for the first time in English. In this fast-paced, pulse-pounding thriller, a former priest has to uncover the secret identity of a deadly gang leader while confronting his own dark past. After the death of someone he loved very much, local priest Ismael Niebuhr has vowed to leave the accursed town of San Isidro for good. But the Skulls, a dangerous gang, and their leader the Mime King have other plans for him. They stalk him day and night, asking the same terrifying question: "Who?" Desperate to escape, the priest soon realizes he needs the help of an old friend who he hasn't spoken to in years, Abraham Pérez, the chief of police. The problem is that Ismael and Abe share more than a broken friendship. A dark secret lies between them, a secret that can get everyone they care about killed. This page-turner, filled with twists and turns, mixes the constant tension of modern psychological thrillers like THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN with a writing style akin to Miguel Otero Silva's early work. SKELETONS IN THE RAIN is a novel filled with suspense that you won't be able to put down.

All he wants is to go home, but his chances look bleaker than ever. ***** Balancing his education in magic and demon-hunting with an apprenticeship to the assassin Arlen Blackheart is hard enough. Keeping his sister safe and avoiding assassination by Arlen's fanatic ex-student at the same time is pushing Jordan to breaking point.
