41 parts Complete Mature
Obsession is the height of passion, but what does one do when they find themselves enthralled with their enemy. Talamayas Sol loses his mother when he stumbles upon a mage in the deserts of his territory, and he is plunged into a despair he's never known. Stricken with grief, he imprisons the murderer and wipes out every last mage of the Song-a human supremacist mage family that had murdered his kind for nothing more than the joy of their extinction. Through his pain, Talamayas finds himself leaning on the man in his dungeons, be it only to torture him for the relief it grants. It was anger at first, but as he learns more about the circumstances of his mother's death and the terrors that fill Wren Song's nightmares, he is inescapably tethered to the man in his dungeons. Why can't he just kill Wren Song and move on with his life? What keeps him close to the mage and anxious when he leaves his side? Is there more to it than obsession and a need to crush the enemy of his past? If there is, what does that mean for him and his people? Take a step back to the start and follow Talamayas Sol and Wren song through their struggle in the deserts of the east. Learn just where their animosity began and how working together changes and shapes the hearts and minds of men grown in a time when violence was the only way forward. (This book is Standalone, but does reference events of the Dusk Trilogy) (Starts at the beginning of Dusk Trilogy, and Ends after it's completion)

(Completed) "'Do you remember that night? Do you remember that night, Landon?'" The Streepers die instantly from a fatal car accident along with their son hours later in the hospital, or so he thinks. Landon amazingly pulls through, but with long term traumatization and hallucinations. Everything seems to be getting back to normal at Seattle P.D. until certain pedestrians are being killed in a similar fashion to Landon's parents' deaths. The only evidence is a note the sick minded serial killer leaves in blood after every crime scene. On each one is a single letter beginning to spell out a name. How far will Landon as a detective go before this criminal mastermind covering his tracks drives him further into insanity? How long will his best friends Oliver and Jen stay by his side? Or will they find themselves turning away? There is a connection between each victim, but is there a bigger picture at large that Landon's mind wants him desperately to believe? TCB is a fast paced thriller novel (and has some humorous elements) that you figure out as you go. It is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat with anticipation the whole time. (Contains some strong language and acts of violence)
