The great city of Qemassen is at a crossroads. A powerful empire from beyond the ocean threatens to reignite a centuries-old feud. A slave rebellion brews in the tangled labyrinth of tunnels beneath the city streets. And Crown Prince Ashtaroth, the city's supposed saviour, is considered unfit to rule even by those closest to him. When the high priest burns one of the royal children alive as a desperate offering to the city's absentee gods, it destroys the fragile peace within Qemassen's scheming first family. Seeking revenge for the death of her child, Ashtaroth's mother calls on a powerful demon named Lilit. But Lilit cannot be trusted. Her cruel machinations pit brother against sister and father against daughter, laying waste to Ashtaroth's family. Then Lilit approaches Ashtaroth with a demonic pact of his own-one that could save his people and his home. But between war from without and a revolution erupting within, even a demon may not be enough to keep Qemassen standing. Set in a secondary world based on the conflict between Ancient Carthage and Rome, The Wings of Ashtaroth is a sprawling, multi-POV epic fantasy, full of queerness, political intrigue, and demons.

Don't even think about coming here unless you've read book one. Book one is called Obsidian Awakening, posted on my profile. Rated mature for everything imaginable (and unimaginable) one would call mature.

𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 #1 𝙑𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙞𝙧𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 ↬ Growing up on the rough streets of Western Sydney, Helena Callahan has always been a fighter. Her philosophy was simple: be sly, agile, and never get caught doing something illegal. And that's what her world was all about-breaking the law. Broke and alone, Helena was forced to sell her body to make a living. It wasn't ideal, but it was how she survived. Still, she longed for change that never seemed to come. It was always the same dauntless routine. At least, that was until she was streetwalking one night and witnessed a supernatural murder. Caught in a bizarre love triangle, Helena's thrown into a new lifestyle surrounded by undead creatures, magical prophecies, and a compelling psychopath to whom she is bound with for an eternity. Now, the cunning heroine is forced into a different kind of battle for survival. Only this one means war. ________________________________________________ THIS BOOK SERIES WAS FORMERLY KNOWN AS 'HELENA SERIES' TO READ MORE: eBook: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/623826 Paperback: http://www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/newborn-%28helena-series-book-1%29/18675499
