Ancient African Emperor Moutassim I goes on a voyage and must survive monsters, cannibal tribes and his own murderous crew, while his wife Kelita, acting as Empress regent, gets a cruel baptism in the dangers of court politics, misogyny, magic and war. Will Moutassim return home to his wife in one piece? Will his Empress survive ruling an empire as brutal as Mesigan? Blurb Moutassim rocked back on his heels, his mind searching for a response but coming up blank. Women, other than his wife, giving him the cold shoulder was a unique experience. Chewing the inside of his lip, Moutassim looked up for inspiration. It was then that he noticed the fog slowly surrounding his ship, it's smoky tendrils wrapping around the cog's single sail and blotting out the starry sky. He looked around, but all he was greeted with was more fog, the shadowy outline of his nearby ships growing fainter and fainter until they disappeared entirely. Where the hell did this fog come from, Moutassim thought in annoyance. Had he been so engrossed in watching Tigrita sleep that he hadn't noticed it creeping in? Moutassim looked around for his navigator, Soth. And that was when he heard a scream pierce the thick fog.

He dubbed himself the Rat King when he foresaw the rodents crawling on his corpse, weaving in and out of his garments like a sensation, like a disease. Now he waits for them down in the ornate sewer home he fashioned. It is a fickle thing, the premonition of one's own death. It does strange things to the mind. They think him mad. She is the Rat King's Mute: beautiful and hideous, alluring and repulsive, fascinating, and yet, forgettable. A complimenting conjecture. Rumors have flourished in the dark; in those empty chasms he chose the arched halls and hidden rooms as an escape from the changing world around him. It will crumble only when the Pied Piper stops playing-and the rats return. _____________________________________________ Highest ranking: #345 in Paranormal 2/5/2018 Please note: violence, blood, sexual themes, and coarse language will appear in The Rat King.

When Vivia Ellspire stumbles across a dying man in the woods, her first instinct is to help this stranger rather than question him. Vivia lives as a pauper on the outskirts of a small town in the wealthy Kingdom of Novena with her elderly caretaker, Tomas. With no one but Vivia's childhood friend Agna for miles, Tomas is wary of this odd newcomer. Vivia, however, is smitten and nurses his back to health. For months, this man becomes a part of their family until he picks up and leaves without so much as a proper goodbye. Upon his return, he declares his intentions to make Vivia his wife and bring her back to court where she will be crowned Queen of Novena. He is truly Prince Lucien, heir to the throne and his father's declining health leaves him with a crown on his head years too early. When Vivia arrives in court, the nobles plot against her and dehumanize her by acknowledging her as nothing more than the soon-to-be King's Inamorata--a lover and new toy he'll soon tire of. But little do they know, Vivia is the sole surviving heir to a powerful ancient kingdom that threatens to bring them to ruins.

"The Blind God walks around me, and I feel my mind prodded again like it was in the cavern, a spider weaving a tangled web. "Would you do anything to be remembered, Ode, even play a villain, the one who rises against the Chosen One?" In answer, I draw my dagger and make a slight incision against my thumb. Blood drips down, hot against my flesh. I hold my hand out as an oath, a promise. My ghouls hiss, yearning to drink. "I would rather reign over darkness than grovel as a servant to the light." *FEMALE ROBIN HOOD MEETS ONE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS* Ode Ngayoh is the only child of a bloodthirsty desert warlord. When the Blind God chooses her as champion, she's deemed a dark witch, a blemish against the Empire for her necromantic powers of summoning ghūls, the undead.
