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.

Everson Croft, professor of mythology and behind-the-scenes wizard
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!

Within her dreams, she is pursued by unseen creatures, while a mystical family heirloom offers her only hope for survival. But when a devastating fire engulfs her world, she’s free to embark on a perilous voyage with her loyal brother … a voyage which ends in tragedy.
Haunted by grief and consumed by illness, the determined young woman unravels a series of cryptic clues across a famine-stricken Ireland in a desperate mission of finding her lost family and recovering the enchanted brooch entwined with her spirit. But her harrowing journey only uncovers a web of deceit, as her newfound relatives harbor dark agendas and ulterior motives.
When at last she unearths the truth behind her powerful birthright, Valentia must confront the choice laid before her. To claim the life she’s always yearned for, she might have to risk everyone she cherishes.
Can Valentia embrace her elusive legacy while protecting those she loves?
Legacy of Hunger is the first book in The Druid’s Brooch historical fantasy series. If you like determined female characters, immersive authenticity, and a wee touch of fairy magic, then you’ll love Christy Nicholas’s transatlantic adventure.

As first I did not like the character, he was too weak for my taste, magically speaking. But I kept reading and what a surprise, I fell in love with the protagonist and with the story itself. Alastair Stone is now my favorite character ever.
