Roger is something of a miserable prick. He hits the bottle a little too hard, he's a little too mean to the people who were supposed to be his friends, and the only people still talking to him are the ones laid out on his coroner's table. His therapist is trying to get to the root of his drinking and misery, but his stiff friends have other ideas.

anatomy of hunger
Rowan Graves has always been sickly-weak, frail, and prone to illness. But when an unexplained hunger consumes him, it's no longer just his body that's changing; it's his very existence. As the hunger deepens, Rowan's once-persistent appetite for food morphs into a grotesque craving for human flesh. At first, he resists, terrified by the thought of hurting anyone, but his body begins to transform, and the need becomes undeniable. His muscles stretch and shift unnaturally, his teeth sharpen, and his mind becomes clouded by the voices of those he's devoured-haunting remnants of his victims, still trapped inside him. Desperate to find a cure, Rowan plunges into the darkness of his family's past, discovering horrifying secrets that might explain his condition-and a family curse that has plagued generations. But every day he survives, the hunger grows stronger, pulling him toward something far darker than he could have ever imagined. Now, with no choice but to feed, Rowan must navigate the terrifying reality of living as a monster, all while trying to hold onto whatever remains of his humanity. In a world where hunger is never satisfied, Rowan Graves must choose whether to embrace the monstrous urge within him-or fight to keep the last vestiges of himself alive.Complete
The Judgement Of Divinity (TMOE #2)
Usually when people die they are courteous enough to stay dead. As it turns out, several people associated with Lucius are lacking in the etiquette department, and when corpses start disappearing from graves it's just no laughing matter anymore. Reunited with more than one friend from his past, Lucius finds himself with more questions for every answer he receives. In his defense, undead vampires and secret, werewolf related orders will do that to you, and yet he is nowhere near figuring out what the Waste is going on beneath the surface of South Kerilia's population. He knows one thing for certain though: One organization holds the answers to all of his questions, and he knows just the person to interrogate. If only that person hadn't been Lucius' newly resurrected numbskull of a crush.Complete
