Mateo Gulverres is a follower to the lesser known Gah'lia, the Ascended Goddess. In a religion that praises experimentation, understanding, and science over demands of blind faith, Mateo's natural curiosity with the macabre and more gruesome aspects of life has led him on a path of medical inquiry and exploration. When rumors of an unknown plague affecting the small town of Dosalda cropped up, Mateo is quick to volunteer himself to head to the town and try and make sense of the inexplicable and deadly illness.

Working alone in a town closed up in quarantine is dismal enough, but when events start occurring that defy reasonable explanation, the practicing doctor soon questions if his slip in sanity is just a side-effect of an on-setting illness, or if there's something far more unimaginable at play in the silent town...Tutti i diritti riservati

Emulsify di AuthorKCBroadhead

The gods lied-and in their silence, they doomed us all. Zysha doesn't want to be a hero. She survived the razing of Chelloway by sheer instinct, clawing her way free with nothing but wit, grit, and a stolen bow. But when strangers start calling her a light in the dark-and something ancient grants her the power to banish the very monsters she fears-she's forced to confront a question she's never asked: what if she was meant for more? Garrend is a brute of a man with a twisted back, haunted eyes, and a voice in his head that whispers secrets even he doesn't trust. He's seen things-creatures that cannibalize their kin, that devour all but memory-and when a power not his own spares his life, he begins to suspect he's part of something far greater than survival. Bashal, a weathered sailor, once found redemption in the eyes of a man who saved him from the fire. Now that man is dead, and Bashal is left with only guilt, a tooth-carved necklace, and orders from a mysterious patron who seems to know more than she says. But the more Bashal obeys, the more he wonders if loyalty alone is enough to hold back what's coming. High above the chaos, in the glittering city of Kal'Frash, Dravira's research could change everything. Her inhalants unlock terrifying bursts of elemental power-but only for those attuned to them. When pressured to turn her work into weapons, Dravira uncovers a way to augment the vapors-one that could make anyone into a vessel of destruction. She begins to question who her work will empower... and who it will doom. Scattered across a world unraveling, each of them hears a different call. A different truth. A different promise. But none of them know the source. None of them see the hunger behind the power. And unless four fractured peoples-divided by history, blood, and belief-can find a way to blend like oil and water... The world of Kalrosh will be consumed.

When Gods Became Mortals di tennis221b

In a world where every myth is true and every god is real, their war is waged through chosen mortals-Conduits who bear divine will with mortal hands. But Nora, she isn't one of them. She's a mortal. A Divine Medjay sworn to uphold the laws of the gods, she's devoted her life to chasing down the enemies of the pantheons. But behind her oath is a deep, festering hatred for the gods who toy with mortal lives, for the Fates who offer no mercy, and for the past that still owns her. When a mission forces her to hunt a dangerously charming fugitive with shadows in his smile, Nora is thrown into a collision course with ancient powers, forbidden truths, and unlikely alliances. To survive, she'll have to navigate treacherous politics, unravel a mystery rooted in her blood, and confront the ghosts that never stopped chasing her. Set against the backdrop of a fractured divine world, this is a story of gods and monsters, of mortals caught in between, and of a love that may burn down the heavens.

Too Dark for you to Love di Lisa_Evette

In the gloomy town of Deathmoure, located amidst misty landscapes, people possessed an unusual trait - they couldn't inflict death on anyone, including themselves. It was a pacifist's dark utopia but for my grieving heart of a white widow, it was a prison - a sanctuary of despair. Needing a path out of this grief-stricken existence, I began my search for a reaper who could aid in my departure. With the newly arrived reaper, broad-shouldered with a charismatic, sly charm that was hard to withstand, I found myself engulfed in a bizarre investigation. Mysterious events began occurring within our rainy town, pointing indirectly toward my mysterious reaper. Amidst this chaos, an unlikely sentiment blossomed within me - love. As the investigation deepened, so did the connection between me and my reaper. It was an unexpected twist, a cosmic joke. I was no longer an icy fortress but a hopeful woman, falling in love with the man who was uncovering the darkest secrets of the people around me. The fighting spirit dormant for so many years in me, now roared to life. August 2023 #1 in dieforyou
