Ambrose will do anything to find Roan, her advocate and lifelong friend, who was kidnapped by the murderous Legalia traitor, Evelyn Smyle. And she'll have to do it in the darkest place on all of earth, full of evil spirits and cannibalistic demons--the Forsaken. Vasser is about to find out that his family never died--they just left him to fend for himself as a penniless child in Chillingham, instead becoming the leaders of the rebel group Exodus. Inquisitor Harland Killaher, Ambrose's uncle, has begun orchestrating his deathly experiments on anyone and everyone under Legalia's rule. Denizen children have become his number one target. Exodus, the rebel Charismatic group, is gathering their forces for an all-out war against Legalia. The walls between dimensions are thinning, and have become non-existent in places. The voices have heard the world's cries. The spirits held for many millenia behind those walls are coming. Insurgo, insurgi, insurrectum. Rise up. Rebel. Revolt. And revolt they will.

In the award-winning steampunk universe of Ashley R. Carlson's The Charismatics, the rich live in floating cities over the achingly poor, flaunting their wealth constantly. Merry Coyne is one such pauper in the frozen landscape of Shinery, caring for her elderly parents and toiling into the night as a seamstress, where the shop owner craves more than just her needlepoint skills. On one particularly dreary day, news spreads faster than Shinery's dwindling food deliveries: the wealthy Duchess Ambrosia La Marck will hold a drawing for two handmaidens, a lucrative position that promises stability for Merry's family. In order for her to enter however, Merry must bargain with the only currencies she has: her beauty...and her bravery. A Beauty's Bargain is a standalone short story perfect for those who wish to explore The Charismatics' world and its key players, before the rebellion has begun.

Death is ready to visit a new world! Based on the published novel and Wattpad sensation, Death is My BFF is now a webcomic! Experience the story like never before now only on WEBTOON! This is a VERY rough, early draft of "Death is My BFF" and the published version looks very different! :) ****** (2014 WATTY AWARD WINNER!) The legendary Angel of Death has spared Faith Williams' divine soul. However, this merciful act comes at a price. When she turns eighteen, her soul and everything that she is, will belong to him. The problem? Faith's not going to hell without a fight. Death isn't the only creature that has taken notice in her uniqueness. Demons, monsters, one vengeful demi-god, and a notorious playboy are all wrecking havoc on her life. Torn between two worlds, Faith must decide once and for all whom she can trust, and whom she can allow herself to love, before all of hell breaks loose. Even if it means striking another deal with Death. * * * FAQ: HELLO, YOU BEAUTIFUL PERSON! :) You CAN read this story without reading the Original Death series. DEATH IS MY BFF REWRITTEN is a total rewrite of the first draft of "Death is My BFF", which I wrote when I was 14. The ORIGINAL series is on my profile, but it does not line up with this book. Again, the book you are currently on is "Death is My BFF Rewritten," which is part of the Rewritten Death Chronicles, and this book does not line up with the original Death series. Again, the Rewritten Death Chronicles will share similarities to the original series, but should be considered a SEPARATE from the series I wrote when I was 14! Please enjoy!!!!! Xoxo, Katarina E.
