When a vengeful ghost begins haunting New York's City Hall, Mayor Adam Winter has only one option left: Julius Q Bygone, Supernatural Sleuth of Shadows.

Imprisoned in the Orinovan priori labs, Ainreth undergoes torturous treatments daily in an attempt to crack the code to lightweaver creation. Things seem hopeless, until unlikely allies join his side to help him. Meanwhile back home in Lys-Akkaria, Mhalyn works with the rebels to come up with a rescue plan to get Fennrin out of Daryan's clutches and ensure he permanently loses his power over the country. With the ongoing war still a looming threat, powerful tyrannical leaders on both sides who will stop at nothing to protect their secrets and positions, and their most powerful az-ari indisposed in enemy territory, everything is stacked against them. Can they come up with a plan to fix this catastrophe before it's too late for everyone?

In the city of Wrextral, magic is no longer alive. It has been harvested, refined, filtered into the air itself and sold back to the people as breathable stability. The old gods are dead. Wild magic has been flayed into infrastructure. Every miracle is regulated. Every heartbeat measured. Every citizen expected to remain predictable. Eira Marlowe used to help build the systems that keep the city alive. Now she lives alone in the rotting mid-tiers, surviving on too little sleep, recycled air, and the violent clarity of a mind slowly consuming itself. Haunted by trauma, dissociation, and the lingering ghosts of a world that refused to stay buried, Eira begins sketching impossible geometries that should not exist. Designs that whisper back. Designs capable of making the city remember what was stolen from it. As strange distortions begin spreading through the lattice networks beneath Wrextral, the line between engineered order and living magic starts to fracture. And somewhere deep beneath the city, something ancient is finally waking up. The Pressure is a dark science-fantasy novel about trauma, systemic control, memory, survival, and the terrifying seduction of becoming useful enough to survive. Perfect for readers who enjoy emotionally heavy character studies, decaying cities, unstable narrators, and lyrical dystopian worldbuilding.

A prequel to the Nightstar series, but can be read on its own. Petre has experienced a lot in their years serving as a soldier in the Lys-Akkarian army, but being assigned as General Ainreth Tyr-Naralyn's second-in-command is certainly a shock even to them. However, what first seems to be quite a nice situation, aside from Ainreth being obnoxious, goes wrong very fast. [word count: 13 000 words]

When a kidnapping becomes marriage, and marriage becomes the only weapon against a god's resurrection, two enemies must choose between centuries of hatred and a love that could save the world. Rinn Starlace's life ends when Beastmen warriors crash her ceremony and drag her into an arranged marriage with Commander Taxon Darkwood-a scarred warrior who hasn't said "I love you" in sixteen years. For two hundred years, three races-elegant Celestians, fierce Beastmen, and shadow-walking Nex-have warred on Barbaria. What none know: every death feeds imprisoned god Malum's resurrection. He's been orchestrating their hatred from his mystical prison. And he's almost free. Rinn is marked as the final sacrifice-the Anchor of Despair whose prophetic visions will complete Malum's return. The Nex have hunted her for years. Now only her unwanted husband stands between her and a god's altar. Taxon built walls around his heart after watching his mother die. But Rinn is cracking those walls with every challenge, every kindness. When their proximity triggers a mating bond-a psychic connection sharing emotions, pain, and presence-pretending indifference becomes impossible. This arranged marriage is becoming devastatingly real. But love alone won't stop a god. They must unite three enemy races, storm ancient ruins, face the Shadow-Lord who orchestrated two centuries of bloodshed, and kill a god. The cost will be catastrophic. Heroes will fall. If they fail, Malum consumes everything.

Description: I aim to write a fantasy book where the main character is not a teenager or just after her teenage years but a 40-year-old woman who brings a different perspective to the fantasy scene. With more life experience, she sees more, understands more, knows that her time is precious, and will only get involved after carefully weighing the pros and cons. She's seen things and done things and is unimpressed by childish drama. She respects herself and demands respect from others, but she will otherwise teach them a lesson in the most subtle way possible. I find that fairies and dragons have been overused in the fantasy genre and would love to change this by lacing my story with new characters inspired by Romanian folklore - such as "iele" (beautiful maidens known to sing and dance crazy dances at night, who can poison wells, abduct or render mute people that see them), "Muma Padurii" (literal translation "The momma in the forest" - a witch/spirit of the forest that calls strangers to her by calling their name in different voices of their loved ones, only to lure them into her lair), as well as deities from the Dacian mythology. The main character starts off by thinking that life cannot offer her any more surprises. Nevertheless, she will have to embark on a journey that will force her to interact with many of these characters and change her sense of reality. Lastly, I would want the book to tell my readers that their lives don't end when they turn 30, 40, 60 or 80, no matter where life took them by that point. We all have a mark to leave and magic in us. The next adventure is just around the corner. Logline: At the age when one drank enough nectar and poison, when they've seen and done it all, every day is brought on by pure inertia, only to bring you closer to your imminent demise, and the last thing you expect is to embark on a fantastic journey filled with magic and creatures long forgotten.

For a thousand years, wraiths have been held at bay with the carcaern orbs-magical artifacts containing the very essence of gods. But someone is shattering orbs and murdering gods. The Shattered Orb is the first novel in a new epic fantasy series. If you enjoy dark medieval settings that don't shy away from horror or violence, this book is for you.

Let's go on an adventure!
