Now rewritten and available in paperback on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08PJM3C9L A city of beasts. A black fog. A portal to hell. Demons roaming the streets. When Palethorn was covered in a thick, black fog, anyone who entered never returned. Now Sir Alexander is tasked with entering the fog, traveling the city, and putting an end to the demons once and for all. Joined by Alexander is a small group of survivors. Some of the monsters of Palethorn have managed to escape during the demon invasion, and lie hiding in the sewers under the city, waiting for the nightmare to end. Birdmen, bugmen, lizards and kobolds gather underground, hoping to assist the humans in vanquishing the demons from their home. Dragons roam the outskirts of the city, offering a glimpse of hope for the people of the city. Some powerful beasts oppose the forces of hell. Originally rated mature, but after getting this added to various smut lists I removed the mature tag. The opening is tame, but there's some serious violence later on. This story was inspired by other works such as Dark Souls and D&D.

**** From the 2016 Watty Award winning author of White Fire**** Burst into this fantasy fairytale and journey to the land of Noch where everyone is born with a soul gift. Some are born with extraordinary visions, others with speed or strength. The greater the gift, the greater the ranking will be in the kingdom. But this isn't true for Sun, who is born with the rare gift of beauty. From birth, a prophecy was placed on her life, that her beauty will cause two princes to turn against each other as they fall in love with her. This brotherly rivalry will only be the beginning of the great war that will sweep across the land. To prevent this, Sun's father hides her away in a deep forest, hoping to prevent the worse from happening. That is, until Sun is spotted in the village and word spreads of her existence. All over the kingdom, people whisper about the "Beautiful One" until it reaches the King. He sends his knights to fetch Sun and bring her to the castle, where he will examine her gift and give her rank within his kingdom. And when all catches sight of her beauty, all will bow down in awe. Sun does everything in her power to avoid the King's two sons, Crow and Christian, but can't seem to escape the pull of their lure. Christian is charm and Crow is war, and both men are devastatingly handsome. They are both also willing to kill each other to gain her hand. When true love begins to bud like the rarest rose, Sun's heart is torn in half. The prophesy of the two brothers is unfolding, but if choosing one prince over the other means destroying her kingdom, Sun would rather disappear than face the consequences.

Lonely Crown Prince Leo has no interest in becoming king. When he wishes away his crown, he sets off a series of events that risk upsetting the balance of magic in the modern world.
