Revels End
Wilmuh Tremblerod knew from a young age that she would become the world's greatest playwright. Unfortunately, the world, and her talent (or lack of it) disagreed. Until one day, Linus, a young and relatively untrained muse finds her in a bar and inspires her to great things. Of course, she isn't the person he intended inspiring, but everyone makes mistakes. With the subsequent loss of Linus' powers, Willmuh's ability to write compelling and mesmerising plays runs out of control and an alarming number of people decide that Wilmuh has become some literary god, meaning that her very creativity becomes a danger to the world. When a competition is announced to find the kingdom's greatest entertainers, Wilmuh chooses to use her new-found talents to seal her place in history. But with rival entertainers and people in authority rallying against her, Wilmuh may find it harder to achieve than she first thought, and her troupe of wayward and strange thespians may not be able to stop the world from falling under her accidental-spell. And there are faeries, too. But watch out for them, they're really shady. Contains a gratuitous and shameless parody of a Doctor Who episode. I'm not even sorry. The second novel of the ongoing Discworld inspired series.

When a Hero and God Collide
(WARNING: This story is centred around themes such as rape, sexual assault, depression and anxiety. If any of the above are triggers for you, please do not read! These themes are based on my own personal experiences, and advice that worked for me. I am in no way a mental health professional, I just wish to draw attention to the above issues). Book 3 of When an Angel and Human Collide series, however can be read as a standalone. Ajax has never been a warrior. His fear is constant and born from trauma dismissed, truths questioned, and years of learning that speaking up only made things worse. The anxiety he carries is constant and consuming, a reminder of battles he fought alone and was told didn't exist. Then Ares walks onto his bus. Brilliantly alive, unapologetically loud, and seemingly made of fire, Ares should be everything Ajax fears. He is the God of War-born of battle, drawn to chaos, thriving where Ajax doesn't. Yet beneath the bravado lies an unexpected patience. Ares sees things others overlook: the quiet strength in restraint and the courage it takes to keep going when every instinct says to run. As their worlds collide, Ajax is pulled into a storm of emotion, healing, and desire he never believed he was strong enough to face. Loving a god of war forces him to confront his past and redefine what battle truly means.Complete
