Oh, another post-apocalyptic story? How original, right? Pft! Look at ya... sittin' there with your smug, arm-chair critic opinions; puffin' out your chest like you're the final boss of good taste. "It's all been done before." Oh, no shit, Nostradamus. So has fuckin' breathing, but here you are, still doing that. The delusion is palpable, my guy. You think your limp-dick cynicism makes you clever? You think you've got the range to shit on this demon slaughtering, blood slick, chaos drenched fever dream? Fuck you. You don't know shit. You definitely don't know Sky King and Ezra Black. If you did? You'd be swan-diving into this bangarang mayhem. But hey, no pressure. Nobody's stapling your eyelids open. You wanna ghost out? Bye! This isn't a fucking sleepover. This is volitional havoc, baby. We're not here to beg you. Ezra and Sky? They're two majestic slaughterhouses who have been Crane kickin' existential horror in the dick since they were seven & eight. You ever see an eight-year-old tear a demon's jaw off with his bare fuckin' hands? You should. These two were goin' full Mortal Kombat on demons. Bare-knuckle survival in a nonstop horror gangbang of blood, viscera, fangs, claws, and absolutely zero goddamn hugs. No bedtime stories, no parents, just rage boners and annihilation. Cut to the now. The boys are knocking on thirty and they're incorporeal. In a world they shouldn't have survived, they Detroit Smashed that shit into the goddamn pavement. Yeah, they shook it down in the most disrespectful way possible. Savage intellect, weaponized charm, and pure, unapologetic carnage. The last remaining relics of a time when people had balls. Sure, maybe their moral compass is more of a "suggestion" than a "guiding principle." Who gives a fuck? If you were expecting some virtuous, noble bullshit, I don't know what to tell you. Wrong story, pal. *Cue the goddamn soundtrack* (Now let's rip that fourth wall down and go ride this motherfucker into the sunset!)

Disgraced Archaeologist Jack Vaughn wants nothing more than to restore his reputation and redeem himself among his peers in the archaeological community. But, after 5 years, he has lost hope of that ever happening.

He reluctantly follows the chance to redeem himself and heads for the Bosnian Valley of the Pyramids. While there, he and investigative journalist Veronica Wilcox, uncover an ancient artifact that will forever change human history and restore his tarnished reputation. When the Board of ApGen Research discovers the existence of the artifact, they send their best agent, Alexander Petrovic, to recover it and erase all proof of its existence. Jack and Veronica are plunged into a world of ancient secret societies, occult worship, and advanced technology, where they uncover a global conspiracy fifteen thousand years in the making.

Salt destroyed the world. Now, he must sacrifice everything to save it. -- A fatal drought ravishes the land after Salt insults the water god. Jaded, reluctant, and driven more by obligation than hope, he travels the brittle, dying land in search of the solution: a favor from a god, which he can gain by resurrecting one. Unfortunately for him, gods need bodies. Even more unfortunately, his wife makes the perfect cadaver. With the help of Calista---a witty delegate to the death god---they set out to track down the fallen goddess of peace, love, and war. But when a mysterious force rises, bent on wiping the gods from the playfield forever, Salt realizes that to restore water to the world, he'll have to confront more than just a rebellion. He'll have to confront the past. A fantasy humor novella about grief, gods, and doing the right thing too late.

"Was... was that an earthquake?" She asked, her voice trembling with a mix of fear and surprise. "It can't be," Kingsley replied, reaching out for his daughter instinctively.
