Assassin Reaper
2020
Kill. Collect. Obey.
Such is the life of a Reaper...
For years, Aulow has served the underrealm as a Reaper.
The Councilspirits tell her who to kill and—although she sometimes feels guilty about it—she obeys her orders dutifully. No questions asked. Well, maybe one question: why doesn't she remember anything from before she became a Reaper?
Today, she just might find out.
When a stranger from Aulow's mortal past shows up during one of her kill assignments, she's finally able to ask the questions that have always plagued her: who was she, how did she get caught up with the dark business of the underrealm, and who is this beautiful stranger that's just arrived in her life?
But perhaps there was a reason the underrealm kept her memories suppressed...
Assassin Reaper is the prequel to the Reapers of Veltuur series, a dark high fantasy adventure with reapers/assassins, bandits, prophets, and enough death magic to keep the entire mortal realm quaking with fear. Oh, and a sprinkling of an LGBT romance that'll melt your heart! If you loved The Nevernight Chronicles, The Shadows Between Us, Reign of the Fallen, or books by Jenna Moreci and Laura Thalassa, you will devour this ethereal saga.

Soul of the Crow
2020
Nevernight meets Reign of the Fallen in this dark saga where assassins wield not blades, but death itself.
When a mortal wants someone dead, they contract a Reaper of Veltuur, an individual born from the underrealm with fatal magic coursing through their veins.
Sinisa is one of them.
For three years, she’s slain her targets dutifully with the aid of her crow familiar. She only needs one more kill to ascend as a Shade, a coveted status of power. And when the King of Oakfall requests a Reaper to execute his daughter for an unforgivable crime, Sinisa is first to volunteer for the job.
It should be easy.
But when the Prince of Oakfall discovers his sister is in danger, he flees the palace with her. Sinisa is left with only two options: journey through the mortal realm to find and slay her mark, or face the consequences of returning to the underrealm empty-handed. It's no choice at all. She has come too far and is too close to earning her title to let it be taken away from her now.
Besides, no one can outrun a Reaper of Veltuur.
Or can they...
Soul of the Crow is a dark high fantasy adventure with reapers/assassins, bandits, prophets, and enough death magic to keep the entire mortal realm quaking with fear. If you loved Throne of Glass, Dark Maji, King of Scars, The Shadows Between Us, or books by Jenna Moreci, Jay Kristoff, Kel Carpenter, and Laura Thalassa, you will devour this epic, gothic saga.
Come. Walk through the forest of the underrealm and discover what’s lurking there in the shadows.

Fate of the Vulture
2020
Darkness comes. An ancient feud has set the realms off-balance for eons. And hope rests on the shoulders of one orphaned, distrusting, former Reaper.
Sinisa Strigidae has never been normal. She’s spent the last three years of her life as a Reaper, a slave to the underrealm. When she finally freed herself, it wasn’t to return to an ordinary mortal life, but to become a Guardian, an empowered being forgotten by almost all of mankind.
But now she discovers she’s even more than that.
She is prophesized.
An ancient prophecy, foretold by the very Divinity of Fate herself, proclaims that Sinisa will be the one to defeat Veltuur, ruler of the underrealm.
But Sinisa has only just escaped his clutches and is trying to reclaim her life. Her path is her own now and she’s not so eager to return to the place that kept her imprisoned.
But her dear friend, King Acari, is still trapped there, and she would do anything to see him freed, even if it means going against one of the Gods.
Fate of the Vulture is the final book in this dark, high fantasy, adventure series. Enter a world where the Reapers are the balance between life and death, where the Gods who once reigned over the mortals have suspiciously disappeared, and where one young girl finds she is somehow tangled in all of it.
If you loved The Nevernight Chronicles, Reign of the Fallen, The Merciful Crow, or books by Leigh Bardugo, Cassandra Clare and Shayne Silvers, you will devour this grim saga.
Wings give you strength for this epic, heart-wrenching conclusion to the story of a girl who belonged to both the mortal and underrealms.
