The Goblin's Trilogy #1 After being raised by her three criminal brothers, Matilda is used to stealing what she wants. However, when she picks the wrong person's pocket, she, unfortunately, wins the attentions of the goblin king, or well, prince actually. In one fell swoop, her life shifts and a thief is made a queen. The queen of a hoard of nasty, ugly, vile creatures with a taste for chaos. Surprisingly, she finds that this arrangement suits her just fine. But even the goblin queen's crown might not be enough to slate Matilda's greed as she sets her sights on overthrowing Queen Mab and becoming ruler over the entire Unseelie Court. ---- Author's note: I'm shooting to update every Thursday or Friday, depending on my work schedule. Happy reading and beware of goblins. Beautiful cover is courtesy of @thisrosewillneverdie

The Goblin's Trilogy #2 Nearly six years have passed since the goblin king and queen overthrew Queen Mab, took ownership of the Unseelie court and turned their kingdom into an empire. Life could not be any better for the goblin king and his human bride. Knut has recovered well from his ordeal and has taken up the mantle of the emperor with his usual unbridled enthusiasm. Matilda has settled into the life of an empress and mother both surprisingly happily. Their twins, Fritjof and Floki, just learned to stab things properly, their youngest, Odd, is learning to speak more than just growl and Matilda's currently expecting her fourth child. For the first time in her entire life, Matilda truly feels content. However, when she is betrayed in the worst possible way by a trusted friend and she suffers an unbearable tragedy, Matilda's thirst for more is awoken like a slumbering beast. Her grief will turn her into a monster. A monster that will stop at nothing to protect the goblin's throne and bring suffering to all those that would dare try to claim it.

Little does she know that more than just Knut's reign as goblin king is going down The End's gullet and saving everything she and Knut built together may require severing the head from the snake before it can bite its own tail once again.

This is a spinoff of the original Goblin's Trilogy. In the aftermath of Matilda's death, the new goblin queen, her granddaughter Hella, is left with the overwelming task of meeting her own expectations. Struggling with grief and the feeling that she is failing to match her grandmother's greatness, she commits the worst sin a goblin ever could in the Underground. She shows weakness. Odd's son, Fenrir, and his siblings are quick to snap at her bared throat and rip everything Hella has ever loved and wanted from her. Only six months into her queenship, Hella is left with nothing. She flees the Underground in shame, seeking the refuge of the Autumn branches with her two lovers, the elf Lias, and Snorri's daughter, Kara, at her heels. However, in the Autumn Branches, she does not find the peace she wanted, but a creature with a terrible power filling the void Athane's death left behind as the god of memory. The young god offers to let Hella wade through the river of time to stop her cousins from tearing apart the empire, but this bargain will carry a great and deadly price. A price that will pit her against the very grandmother she idolized.
