Book excerpt: A queen's fury. A king's madness. The Fae have come for blood. Witch Queen's War (Book 7) A witch’s return. A city in peril. The battle has come home. There's a turning point in every war, one where the stakes are raised to immeasurable odds. Damian knew it was coming. Only he didn't expect it to land in his front yard. Allies of the Fae king have made their move. Damian’s unsteady alliances are threatening to fracture, providing the water witches and vampires an opportunity to strike. As the body count rises on both sides, a long-forgotten enemy tips the scales toward catastrophe. When the fate of the world hangs in the balance, and all might be lost, Damian and his crew must fight harder than ever—even if it all comes down to one very grumpy parrot. Forgotten Ghosts (Book 8) A necromancer's fear. A family's fate. An ancient spirit with a new alliance. Damian shouldn't have told himself things couldn't get any worse. They did. As Nixie struggles to unite the water witches, the Fae king discovers a spy in his ranks. Damian and his friends are forced to split their focus and their powers between the unrest in Faerie and the rising tensions in Falias. When Nudd's latest gambit puts humanity’s most dangerous weapons into his hands, they can't let anything stand in their way. They'll need help from new contacts and trusted allies if they hope to stop the Fae king's madness. But the award for worst timing in history goes to an old friend: Vicky.
