Now a New York Times bestseller!
Inheriting your uncle’s supervillain business is more complicated than you might think, particularly when you discover who’s running the place.
Charlie’s life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank would approve his loan.
Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with an island volcano lair) to Charlie.
But becoming a supervillain isn’t all giant laser death rays and lava pits. Jake had enemies, and now they’re coming after Charlie. His uncle might have been a stand-up, old-fashioned kind of villain, but these are the real thing: rich, soulless predators backed by multinational corporations and venture capital.

I’ve seen a lot of crazy stuff since I got clued into the paranormal world. Cannibalistic giants. Necromancers who could raise armies of the undead. Evil nature deities with an appetite for destruction. Old gods, and new.
But nothing prepared me for seeing the world descend into an undead apocalypse, in a future so bleak it gives me chills just telling you about it. Millions of lives, gone in the blink of an eye, and millions more turned into zombies, ghouls, revenants, and vampires.
In that future, humans are no longer at the top of the food chain. I know this because I was there. This crazy fae chronomancer took me there, right after my girlfriend broke up with me by throwing me through the windshield of a rare and expensive British sports car.
And it wasn’t even my car—I’d borrowed it from my best frenemy, Crowley.

Evil’s lease is up. Time for Stone to clean house.
Alastair Stone, overworked occult professor and full-time mage, is barely managing his complex double life. Then an old friend begs him to mentor a new apprentice, and Alastair’s life goes from “it’s complicated” to “completely unhinged”.
His troubles double down when a university colleague wants him to investigate a massive old house where things are going bump in the night.
Easy job, right? Just turn up, put on a little show, and pronounce the house clean. Problem: The house isn’t clean. And this job will take more than a simple paranormal hoovering.
If Stone can’t deal with the malevolent spirit reawakening in the basement, he’ll have a major disaster on his hands.
And if that’s not bad enough, a trio of dark mages want to break it free. They’ll do whatever it takes—including seducing Stone’s young apprentice and using him against his master.
With time running out, Stone has to stay alive long enough to uncover the spirit’s secrets. But even if he does, he might not have enough power to send it back and save his apprentice.

Show me an amateur conjurer, and I’ll stop him before he gets himself killed.
That’s the idea, anyway. But New York City isn’t what it used to be, and I don’t mean the recent crash.
Amateur casters are calling up creatures they shouldn’t be able to. And there’s been a murder at the city’s most hallowed cathedral, a message in blood on the victim’s back the NYPD wants me to interpret, like yesterday.
Something tells me I’m in over my head. And that’s not just Chinatown’s newest mob boss, a scary-powerful vampire, or my possessed cat talking.
No matter how much magic I hurl, worse keeps chasing bad, and I’m amassing enemies like they’re aluminum cans.

Private Detective Alex Lockerby has a book of spells, a pack of matches, and four days to prove he’s not a killer.
In 1933 New York, there are two kinds of magic, the all powerful sorcerers who use their abilities to acquire wealth and fame, and the runewrights who scratch out what meager spells they can to make a living. Decidedly in the latter category, Alex Lockerby uses his magic to aid him in his work as a private detective, consulting for the police on cases with mystical ties.
When a lethal magical plague is released in a Manhattan soup kitchen, the police fear it is a test for a more devastating attack. They call in the big guns, the FBI and their own consultant, Sorsha Kincaid, New York’s resident sorceress. Wanting to help, Alex instead finds himself under suspicion because of his ties to the priest who ran the kitchen.
With the FBI and their powerful and dangerous sorceress breathing down his neck, Alex has his book of runes, a pack of matches, and four days to find out where the plague came from or the authorities will hang the crime squarely on him.
An excellent read!
