Will Bradshaw knows his goblins can be hard to deal with. Dirty, troublesome and a tad crazy, few people get along with them. That makes it a pleasant surprise when the one race on Other Place who actually respects goblins sends a representative.
But this is no social call. Their guest brings word that a dire threat that many thought lost never to return is about to rise up from the ocean depths, Sarcamusaad the Walking City. Few could hope to survive against this titanic being, much less defeat him. Sarcamusaad is preparing to march across the continent on a mission of vengeance, leaving a trail of untold devastation through four kingdoms, including the Kingdom of the Goblins.
Facing Sarcamusaad is going to take strength, skill, magic, wisdom and other traits rare among goblins, forcing Will to seek help from new friends and old allies. Great as the risk is, it becomes greater still when some see Sarcamusaad's arrival not as a danger but an opportunity. With enemies on all sides, what chance does Will have?

Sun's Shadow (Dusk Series - Book 3.5)
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.
