"Hard to put down. From the compelling opening sentence to the last, The Horns of Ruin is much like its protagonist: powerful, relentless and impossible to ignore."—Miami Herald When humanity ascended, there were three gods. Three became two. Then two became one… Eva Forge is the last of her kind—a Paladin of the dead god Morgan, whose might is slowly waning. Trained for a life of combat in the city of Ash, she remains ever wary of the scions of the other gods, who have their own beliefs and agendas. So when Eva accompanies her lifelong mentor to retrieve a strange young girl of a rival faith, she is both curious and suspicious. And above all, she is ready for a fight. But nothing could have prepared her for an ambush by armored, machine-driven corpses. When the smoke clears both her mentor and the girl are gone—taken captive or worse. Though ordered to stand down and let the authorities handle the investigation, Eva cannot let such a disgrace go unpunished by the power of Morgan. Soon, her initial desire for bloody vengeance becomes a quest for answers. Because the more Eva learns in her search for the truth, the less she realizes she truly knows about her city, her destiny, and the gods themselves. And what Eva uncovers will either transform the world or leave it in ruins… Tim Akers, author of the acclaimed Burn Cycle series, introduces readers to a mystical world where men can become gods, and gods can become murderers… "A complex steampunk world."— Publishers Weekly "A solidly created world, populated with magic, action and adventure…we haven't come across such a refreshing take on multiple sci-fi and fantasy forms in a while."—Sci Fi Now "Establishes itself as a unique fantasy adventure in a world all it' own…should be at the top of your list."—Examiner.com

K. C. Alexander follows up their high-energy, high-tech dystopian Necrotech with "brutal, unapologetic, sexy cyberpunk" (Scott Sigler) that hits the ground and tears it all to hell… Riko's landed teeth-first in hell and ass-deep in a shredded reputation. Thanks to a run-in with two corporations, a nasty case of mixed-up memories and a worse case of betrayal stamped on her back, she's got a trail of dead friends and bad choices behind her no credible merc wants to touch. She's officially on the outs, and on-the-outs-mercs of her caliber are glorified stepping stones for every freak job, chumhead, and chromed-out wannabe who thinks they can take her on. If that wasn't bad enough, her street doc's left her, her old team doesn't trust her, the cop in her pocket's getting delusions of grandeur, and those corp suits keep sending in the jackboot clowns. All of it is getting in the way of what she wants most—to find who landed her in the lab where everything all started, who made her girlfriend into patient zero Necro Mary there, and what turned a four block radius into a playground for every saint's worst nightmare. Plan's simple: tear everything and everybody apart until somebody says something smart. That's easy. It's the execution that's going to hurt. "Nanoshock crushes everything in its path… It is a steel-fisted punch in the mouth"— Scott Sigler, #1 bestselling author of the Generations trilogy K. C. Alexander doesn't 'write' so much as she fires words into your cerebral cortex with an electromagnetic railgun."— Chuck Wendig, New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Aftermath and Invasive "An intense, gleefully profane, fearlessly inventive, unapologetically grimy cyberpunk caper with an unforgettable protagonist."— Barnes & Noble Sci-Fi & Fantasy Magazine

K. C. Alexander begins their SINless duology with a novel hailed by New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig as "sci-fi that's slick, sharp and snarky…" A filthy city, overpopulated and underregulated, with even less mercy than a rusted pipe to the eye. For the saints that run it, it's called home. Anybody with the right cred can score an upgrade, it's just a matter of who, what and how much. Good tech, bad tech, big tech, micro tech, it's all out for grabs. For mercs like Riko, installs give an edge every street fight, every corp raid, and every job demands. She and her team have earned their cred, carved out a patch of hell and live it up. That's where Riko lives. Or she did. Until she wakes up in a laboratory, memory shot, body wrecked and tech on the blink. Maybe she slammed too many party favors in some lowlife bar. Maybe she made some bad choices to get there. None of that explains why she finds her girlfriend in the same facility—body going necro and tech on a killing streak. Caught between horror in front and bullets behind, she's got no choice but to get out alone. And that's only the beginning. Now Riko's dealing with friends on the take, corporations on her ass, and enough rage to burn a soulless city to the ground if that's what it takes. She's fighting a war to tear off the scabs of a conspiracy that'll consume anybody that gets near it—chrome and steel, sinner and saint. Just like it's consumed her girlfriend. But rage is a hell of a drug, and she's going to do more than just fight. She's going to slaughter… Praise for NECROTECH: "NECROTECH crushes everything in its path. Brutal, unapologetic, sexy cyberpunk, it is a steel-fisted punch in the mouth." — Scott Sigler, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Generations trilogy "Vulgar, vicious, and very very good! Alexander pulls no punches in this intense debut." — Jason M. Hough, New York Times bestselling author of Zero World "NECROTECH bleeds with raw & unapologetic badassery. Riko is the cyberpunk heroine I've been waiting for, struggling with the truth that the tech we embrace to solve our problems just creates new ones, and no one has a chipset to fix humanity's bugs. K. C. Alexander dials up the attitude, anguish, and adrenaline in this explosive debut, and I'm looking forward to Riko's next run." — Kevin Hearne, New York Times bestselling author of The Iron Druid Chronicles "Necrotech is a speed freak rush down mean streets of the digital, the modified, and the just plain crazy. It's like razors for your brain."— Richard Kadrey, author of the Sandman Slim series "One of the most interesting women protagonists I've read in a long time."— Stephen Blackmoore, author of the award-nominated noir urban fantasy Dead Things "Scalding and brutal as a radiation shower, punishing as a street fight, and as sharp as a blade to the jugular, NECROTECH and its badass heroine, Riko, will grab your heart in a diamond steel fist and squeeze it to a pulp." — Lila Bowen, author of Wake of Vultures

This Aurora Award and Silver Birch Award-winning series is the inspiration for the hit show on Paramount+ When the woods become a trap, where does a wolf pack run? Everyone at Redstone High is talking about the strange Brock kids. How they keep to themselves at school—and spend way too much time in the woods. But Noble, Argus, Harlan and Tora aren't normal teens—they were born with the power to become wolves. And the more the siblings try to hide their secret identity, the greater they struggle to fit in. Then Noble falls mysteriously ill, leaving the pack without a leader just when he's needed the most… With a little girl lost in Redstone Forest, the authorities suspect a wolf attack. Which means the search team is intent on hunting—even killing—wolves and their kind. It's up to the pack to find the girl and bring her back to safety—before someone finds them first. Suddenly the woods are a very scary place. With the world turned against wolves, is there anyone in the world the wolf pack can trust? Praise for Cry Wolf "...story is full of action but also interesting bits of character development.... Let's hear it for the werewolves!" — CM Magazine "[Cry Wolf] will make you want to read them all. The author has perfectly captured the essence of growing up different in a small town. Fans of the character Jacob Black from Stephenie Meyer's series will love this wonderful series." — YA Book Central "While obviously light on gore and violence, there's plenty of suspense here. It's wonderful to see kids' issues broached in the trappings of a genre story, especially one structured to get grade-schoolers thinking and talking. All in all, Cry Wolf is a great stepping stone for monster kids who aren't quite old enough to partake in the monster bloodshed." — Rue Morgue "In my opinion, this book has an equal amount of thrilling, awesome, and exhilarating quality as Wolf Pack, another book in the series-but both of them are on my list of top ten books I've read. Cry Wolf is a thrilling and exciting book, and I would recommend it to people who love adventure books." — Ask Pippa

It is a recommended series for novice fantasy fans." — VOYA "…an action-packed sequel to WOLF PACK." — Toronto Star "…an enjoyable tale." — School Library Journal "It is unusual for a sequel to be even as good as an original novel, and it's even rarer for it to be better, but that's the situation with LONE WOLF, the sequel to WOLF PACK. ... Highly Recommended." — CM Magazine (University of Manitoba)

But after ten days of digging and searching, they find nothing... Until an old world evil is uncovered and the true nightmare is unleashed.

An Aurora Award Finalist Six contestants. One haunted house. And a whole lot of bloody murder. B-grade horror masters the Gowan brothers have devised a new reality TV show with a killer hook. Six contestants compete for the chance to star in an upcoming slasher movie. All they have to do is survive one night in a "haunted" house and be voted Scream Queen. The setting is perfect: a crumbling Victorian mansion with a gruesome history and a former owner who turned out to be a serial killer. Throw in a few buckets of fake blood, a bunch of rubber body parts, and a cast of aspiring actors who'll do anything for a close-up. An expert parapsychologist even warns the production team against disturbing the house's dormant spirits. Fantastic publicity. Sure, the budget's low, but the ratings are going to soar. Then the sun goes down. The cameras start rolling. And all hell really breaks loose… Edo van Belkom, winner of the Bram Stoker and Aurora Awards, is at his brilliantly twisted best in a novel that's dark, witty, and utterly terrifying. REVIEWS"Great creepy fun! A post-modern edge-of-your-seat thriller, with enough smarts to know when to scare you and when to make you laugh. Having survived a decade in television, I thought I'd seen it all, but this book is actually SCARIER than meeting a Hollywood Network Executive!!"–Ron Oliver writer/director PROM NIGHT 3 & more "An ominous rollercoaster ride of a ghost story that is at once surprisingly simple and deceptively complex, a novel which exemplifies both the author's penchant for comic horror and intense terror – not to mention a genuine love of horror movies … SCREAM QUEEN rocks."–Rue Morgue "A beach book for the horror crowd. Fun and fast-paced, the book is a terrific read."–Creative Corner

Stephen Blackmoore's dark urban fantasy series continues as hard-edged, hard-hitting necromancer Eric Carter finds himself surrounded by enemies who want him to suffer a fate worse than death… by bringing him back to life. When Carter comes to, he feels like Hell. Worse than hell. Every part of his body is on fire, his stomach is boiling acid, and he's coughing up some horrific black substance from his lungs. He's not feeling—or looking—like himself. All in all, not a jolly start to the day. Unfortunately, that's about as good as its going to get. Because, as he soon learns, he's been dead for years—until someone with some serious magical muscle decided to bring him back. But who could Carter have ticked off so badly they would expend such power just to return him to the mortal realm? Oh, that's right: raging gods, sadistic demons, a very patient and vengeful djinn… pretty much every nightmare in the monster's menagerie. And if Carter doesn't figure out why someone—or some thing—is pulling the strings, his new life may have an even more gruesome end than his old one. Praise for the Eric Carter series: "Blackmoore employs Chandleresque prose to smoothly incorporate a hard-boiled sense of urban despair into a paranormal plot, with occasional leavening provided by smart-aleck humor." — Publishers Weekly on Dead Things "In a world where Aztec Mythology, dark magic and grim reality blend together, nothing is what it appears to be... Best of all, Blackmoore's chillingly good storytelling skills ensures that fans will enjoy every step of this adrenaline fueled journey." — RT Book Reviews (Top Pick) on Broken Souls "This series is so fucking good. Blackmoore can't write these books fast enough to suit me. BROKEN SOULS is hyper-caffeinated, turbo-bloody face-stomping fun. This is the L.A-noir urban fantasy you've been looking for." — Kevin Hearne, Author of The Iron Druid Chronicles "Carter's wry voice is amusing as ever, but the grief he carries is palpable, adding depth and a sense of desperation to this action-packed adventure. Readers will be eager for more after this thrilling, emotionally fraught installment." — Publishers Weekly on Ghost Money, Starred Review Series Order: 1. Dead Things 2. Broken Souls 3.

The past is coming for necromancer Eric Carter—and the rest of the world—in the latest novel in the darkly comic noir fantasy thriller series Eric Carter has lost his head. Well, not his head in particular, but rather the incredibly powerful talking head (seriously, that's all it is) known as the Oracle of Las Vegas, which Carter himself made. The Oracle has always had the ability to affect the future to make its "predictions" come true. But now it's playing with the past. All over Los Angeles, realities are colliding—historic buildings appearing, city streets turning to orange groves, scores of Prohibition-era corpses popping up and eerily chanting in unison—and it all seems to be linked to a century-old cult of apocalyptic lunatics who are just about ready to cut loose. Now, with the Oracle trying to kill him in a variety of creative ways, his few allies growing more impatient, and a seriously out-of-control rookie cop/mage as his unwanted shadow, Carter must find a way to stop his own creation from unleashing complete and utter destruction.

The first novel Stephen Blackmoore's noir urban fantasy series, in which necromancer Eric Carter returns home to find his sister's killer—and send them straight to hell… Eric Carter has a unique skill—he can talk to the dead. Specifically, communicating with restless spirits—or other, even worse entities—and getting them to move on or move out. Sometimes, they take a lot of convincing. And sometimes, they straight up try to kill him. It's not your typical way to make a living, but Carter's managed to make it work. Life is pretty good. At least it was. Because Carter's little sister has just been brutally killed. By something nightmarish. To find the killer Eric Carter is going to have to return to L.A., which he left fifteen years ago when he made a lot people—and paranormal entities—very angry. And those people have long, unforgiving memories. But Carter is no pushover. He's got more heavy-duty magical power than most of those with his skill set, and he's more than happy to use it on anyone or anything who tries to stop him from finding his sister's killer. And when he does, he is going to make them pray for death—and then he's going to answer their prayers… Praise for the Eric Carter series: "Blackmoore employs Chandleresque prose to smoothly incorporate a hard-boiled sense of urban despair into a paranormal plot, with occasional leavening provided by smart-aleck humor." — Publishers Weekly on Dead Things "In a world where Aztec Mythology, dark magic and grim reality blend together, nothing is what it appears to be...

In this chapter of Stephen Blackmoore's noir urban fantasy series, necromancer Eric Carter has to uncover just who—or what—is slaughtering magic users in Los Angeles. Because everyone thinks it's him… Eric Carter's whole world is on fire. And not just because the city's experiencing one of the most brutal, sweltering summers in recorded history. Ever since he visited the land of the dead in his quest to free himself from Santa Muerte—Aztec goddess of death—he's had a bad feeling that his reckless and ruthless actions would return to haunt him. And for once, he's about to be proven all too correct. Because when he visited the netherworld, he just happened to really tick off Quetzalcoatl—an Aztec god not known for his forgiveness. Or his sanity, for that matter. Carter has a hunch the deity may have something to do with a string of local mages getting scorched to cinders by an unquenchable fire. And he may have something to do with Carter being blamed for the killings. But there's something else at work in the City of Angels. Something even worse than a mad god. And if Carter can't figure out what it is, he's going to burn. And the entire city is going to burn with him. Praise for the Eric Carter series: "Blackmoore employs Chandleresque prose to smoothly incorporate a hard-boiled sense of urban despair into a paranormal plot, with occasional leavening provided by smart-aleck humor." — Publishers Weekly on Dead Things "In a world where Aztec Mythology, dark magic and grim reality blend together, nothing is what it appears to be... Best of all, Blackmoore's chillingly good storytelling skills ensures that fans will enjoy every step of this adrenaline fueled journey." — RT Book Reviews (Top Pick) on Broken Souls "This series is so fucking good. Blackmoore can't write these books fast enough to suit me. BROKEN SOULS is hyper-caffeinated, turbo-bloody face-stomping fun.

Necromancer Eric Carter returns in this noir urban fantasy in which an unspeakable cataclysm has turned the City of Angels into the city of the dead. And there are more of the dead on their way… In his attempt to bely the wrath of the ancient Aztec god Quetzalcoatl, Carter unknowingly lit the fuse on what is now known as Los Angeles Firestorm. The massive explosion and its toxic aftermath killed over 100,000 people, sparking mass riots and turning the area into a kill zone. The city is slowly healing its shattered heart, but for Carter the guilt is crushing his soul. But soon enough, the situation threatens to get even worse. There are ghosts gathering—more than is safe. Because if the ghosts somehow works their way through the barrier separating them from the world, they have only one way to survive: feed off the living. And Carter realizes that the ghosts aren't acting on their own. Someone is calling to them. A fellow mage looking for more power is using the ghosts as weapons against anyone who stands against them. And unfortunately, that's what Carter needs to do. Because if any more people die from Carter's actions, he might just willingly join them… Praise for the Eric Carter series: "Blackmoore employs Chandleresque prose to smoothly incorporate a hard-boiled sense of urban despair into a paranormal plot, with occasional leavening provided by smart-aleck humor." — Publishers Weekly on Dead Things "In a world where Aztec Mythology, dark magic and grim reality blend together, nothing is what it appears to be...

Necromancer Eric Carter has to face the nightmares of his past if he's ever going to have a future in Stephen Blackmoore's brutally dark urban fantasy series… Eric Carter has lived a life few could imagine. Or want. He's raised the dead, been dead, become, battled, and buried a few gods, been forced to slaughter countless thousands out of desperate necessity, and is currently inhabiting the exhumed corpse of his own dirty rotten bastard grandfather. So, when it comes to revisiting his past, he's not exactly eager. But he'd better get real eager, real fast. Eric has received a mysterious call from Las Vegas. A call from one of his own dreadful creations known as the Oracle. It wasn't easy to make, what with having to saw a guy's head off and all. And it isn't easy to control, what with it being able to manipulate the future. And that's the problem. Because now, it's not only affecting the future. It's changing the past. For the worse. And if Eric can't reunite a team of his worst associates to get the Oracle back, the world is literally going to hell.

Stephen Blackmoore's noir urban fantasy continues, with Los Angeles necromancer Eric Carter caught in a love triangle that is anything but loving… Eric Carter has always had a difficult relationship with the women in his life. That's hit all-time high since he unwillingly married the Aztec goddess of death, Santa Muerte. Which wouldn't be so bad if he didn't wake up every day worrying if every little marital spat might end with her obliterating his very existence. Oh, and every time he's used his marriage-enhanced powers, his body has slowly been transforming into jade stone. So, couples therapy is definitely not going to help in this situation. Now, Santa Muerte's own complicated romantic past is going to make things even worse. Because her ex-husband has just gotten out of his supposedly inescapable prison. And, of course, her ex is Mictlantecuhtli, the Aztec King of the Dead. Pretty soon, Carter finds himself getting propositioned—or rather, threatened. Because both king and queen want him to kill their spouse. Carter is once again in a hard place with his life on the line, caught between two angry gods as his own magic slowly kills him. But there may be one way for him to save both his life and his soul from this pair of dreaded deities… Take them both out. Permanently. Ain't love grand?
