In a world where people with magic live hidden away in a forest, 15-year-old Destan must save his tribe from a war with the non-magical people, after accidentally having started it himself in the first place. --- The world has split in two; magicals living in packs, or tribes, doing what they can to survive. Non-magicals, or Inops, in complete ignorance of their powerful counterparts. Destan doesn't fit in with either society. Though his younger sister Julia lives with the Inops and does not have any powers, Destan can bend the atoms of any object to his will. His tribe, however, has made him an outcast for a horrible mistake he made when he was just a little boy. Lonely and desperate, Destan makes another mistake a decade later. By showing himself to Julia and her adoptive family of Inops, he makes himself a target - and by doing so, he makes his tribe a target. The costs pile up higher and higher as the quarrel between the two sides turns into a full-blown war. Can Destan make up for what he's done, before both factions turn on him? Book #1 in the Atrament series. Cover made by the amazing @infinitecovers.

Living in a world filled with wannabe tinpot dictators (aka Alphas), pack members who disagree with his every move, and dispossessed rogues, Alpha Jim of the Shadow Bluff Pack has given up on the idealism of his youth. The world he inhabits has inured him to dealing with the impasse of pack politics with practiced indifference. But then, as the world around him is destabilised by a series of seemingly unrelated and increasingly serious events, he becomes aware, slowly but surely, that something malevolent is afoot, and that he must shake off this impassiveness to preserve his and his compatriots' way of life.

Titus Walker has always felt that he didn't fit in. There always seemed to be an invisible gulf between him and his peers. In his final year, he just wants to fly under the radar, graduate and get the hell out of his private, all-boys high school. The quiet equilibrium of his life is shattered when he is forced to sit next to golden boy Fraser Sinclair, although he initially does not expect much to come of the arrangement. A few sidelong glances, at most. Not even in his wildest dreams could he foresee that this would lead to a wild goose chase for the one-and-only Steely Dan jukebox musical in the world, long rides on public transport, and being shadowed by a mysterious white Volkswagen Golf. Started 02/8/20.

Magic is to be feared. It is a wild, unpredictable thing, and anywhere it goes it brings mayhem and destruction. Those that wield it are even more dangerous. At least, that's what King Soren claimed when he hunted down and killed nearly every magic-user in Eldernia. The only ones he spared were sworn into Soren's service as elite agents that have one purpose, and one purpose only--find any remaining magic-users and give them a choice. Join the Valkir . . . or die. Asher, a sixteen-year-old boy, has managed to conceal his power for years. But when his secret is revealed, there will be no more hiding. || Winner of the 2020 Sinne Awards || || Third place in the 2020 Black and Gold Flames Awards - Fantasy || The fabulous cover is from @-designdistrict !

A stroll through a magical forest isn't really so fun when there are faeries plucking and grabbing clumps of your hair, elves attempting to set your clothes on fire, and trolls poking your vulnerable skin with their needle-like fingers. Unfortunately, Vorare has been like this for as long as anyone could remember - with creatures more of a nuisance than that of a threat. Darkness looms in every corner, and only those cunning and manipulative enough shall make it to the top. Strange tales waft around their world, and Asagai, a young thief of fourteen summers, struggles to save his old hag by venturing into the unknown in order to find some fae and garner their spittle rumoured to heal diseases. But it seems like fate has found a way to give him a detour as he travels with the slightly uncommunicative Emberchase, the weaver of flames. An organization of killers chase after their heels, a prince wants to use him for war, and the thief will soon come to realize that the man whom he pledged loyalty to isn't as what the stories had told him to be. In a place where fire is neither deaf nor mute, foxes and bears are considered magical, and princesses have a knack for hanging people, will Asagai still be able to return home? ---- Ember Chasers ---- The first book of the Vorare Trilogy. #1ST PLACE FANTASY in Moonlight Awards 2019 #2ND PLACE FANTASY in Shadow City Awards #2ND PLACE FANTASY in Love Awards 2019 #2ND PLACE ADVENTURE in Ink Awards 2020 ★Updates every Sundays
