AMONG THE DEAD AND DYING
by A.R. Wise Thousands of years after a zombie apocalypse wiped out the majority of humans, the world is a very different and harsh place. It’s safest to live behind the fortified walls of the Kingdom of Golden Rock, or it least it had been. Rumors of an army of dead led by a man calling himself The Scholar have proven true, and even the most secure cities are no match for his undead soldiers. The Scholar’s goal is to crush the world of the living, but he also wants to capture a simple baker named Saffi, though no one seems to know why. Saffi’s father vows to protect his daughter, and flees The Scholar’s path, only to fall prey to other evils of the world outside the walls. In just one day’s time, Ward and Saffi’s lives will be forever altered, and the secret about why The Scholar wants her will be revealed. FREE! (regular price $3.99) |

A SOUL FOR TROUBLE by Crista McHugh Arden Lesstymine (known to everyone as Trouble) likes attention as much as the next girl, but this is getting ridiculous. When an insane stranger is murdered at the inn where she works, Trouble becomes the next Soulbearer for the disembodied god of chaos, Loku. Yes, it comes with the ability to channel the god’s limitless power, but at the cost of her sanity — literally. Now she has a sexy but cynical knight claiming to be her protector, a prince trying to seduce her to his cause (and his bed), and a snarky chaos god who offers a play-by-play commentary on it all, whether she wants to hear it or not. To make matters worse, a necromancer wants to capture the soul of Loku for his own dark purposes, and the only way he can get it is by killing her first. FREE! (regular price $2.99) |
