But how can they find him on the crowded, chaotic streets of the city of Thanis?

His Blood
Why do vampires hate the sight of the cross? The darkest secret of the past two thousand years is about to be revealed, as ancient evil and modern science combine to bring about a resurrection that could plunge the world into a new age of terror.
Scoot
What would you do if you were a fun-loving skateboard-riding purse snatcher whose latest haul turned up a packet of cash and a gun? And what would you do if you were an assassin who'd just accepted your latest assignment . . . only to get your purse snatched?
The Widow's Walk
Not far from Trinity Bay is the even smaller fishing town of Blackwater Cove. It's the perfect place for a young married couple to begin their lives together, in a quaint old house with a spooky, romantic history of love, loss, and tragedy. Not that they believe in ghosts or curses or the past reaching out ... because nobody ever believes that kind of thing. Until it's too late.
The Horned Ones
Cornucopia Caverns is a popular side trip for vacationers. Entire families can enjoy the guided tours through its passages and chambers. Entire families can be trapped in a cold, crushing darkness of stone. A few will survive. Some of those will even escape. And that's when the horror really begins.
The Reaper series
Nathaniel Caron is a psychic. He can't tell the future; he feels things. He senses the energy of people and things. Together with his pancake-obsessed friend Jack, Nathaniel comes face to face with a series of mysteries: lost cat, serial killer, mysterious painter and more.

History is Dead
Our team of crack historians has uncovered the truth you never learned in school: the living dead have walked among us since the dawn of time. In this collection of gruesome tales from throughout the ages, the ravenous undead shamble through bloody battlefields, plague-ridden cities, genteel country estates, and dusty frontier towns. They emerge from foggy cemeteries, frozen barrows, loamy bogs, cursed mines, and gore-spattered operating rooms to prey on the living. But these zombies don't just eat people. They help painters and writers save their faltering careers. They unwittingly push humankind on the quest for fire. They topple evil capitalists and their corporate empires. They fight crime. They fall in love. Join us on a journey into our zombie-filled past... Neither history nor the living dead have ever been this exciting!
Published by Permuted Press, this anthology contains the story, The Barrow Maid, by Christine Morgan.
Tell No Tales
Twelve ordinary Americans.
One isolated Caribbean island.
Half a million dollars in gold.
The contestants for the new historical-themed reality game show Pirate Adventure think they know what they're getting themselves into. The show's creator and the production team are confident that they have everything under control.
Sure, there have been a few problems. Equipment glitches. Accidents. Injuries. Illness. Routine setbacks, that's all. A run of bad luck. Certainly nothing more. Not, for instance, a curse.
Not, for instance, the spirit of Captain Smythe, reaching out from beyond the grave to punish those who've invaded his resting place. Not, for instance, the vengeful wrath of his spectral crew, seeking to protect their long-buried treasure.
It couldn't be anything like that. Or so the living keep telling themselves. Even after the disappearances … and the murders …
When a worsening world situation traps them on the island, the cast and crew will learn the hard way that challenges won't help, alliances don't matter, the votes mean nothing, and survival is very much at stake.
Recent Publications
The ElfLore Trilogy
A newly revised and edited edition of Silversilk, Knight of the Basilisk & Truegold combined into one 636 page hardback edition.
The ElfLore Trilogy
Longevity, grace, beauty, magic, wisdom … the gifts of the elvenfolk are many. Nowhere are those gifts enjoyed more fully than in the kingdom of the Emerin. It is a place of light and music, culture and civilization. It is also a place of pride, greed, bitter envy and murderous hate. And in the wake of a terrible war with the dwarves, the Emerin is a land without a king. A land where those who crave power will go to any lengths to achieve it.
Silversilk
Swordmaid and sorceress Ariana Mirida only hopes to clear her father's name and reclaim her family's ancestral home. Little does she suspect that she is about to turn a nation upside down with a quest that will pit her against renegade wizards, corrupt counts, treacherous heroes and the deepest secrets of the Emerin itself.
Knight of the Basilisk
Amid darkness and fire and blood, one young woman is bequeathed an unexpected destiny from a dying warrior-priest. To fulfill it, she will need strength. She will need faith. She will need to challenge the long-held traditions of her people. And she will need to sacrifice the one heartfelt desire she always held most dear.
Truegold
Betrayed. Robbed of his inheritance and deprived of his magic. Imprisoned. Some men would have broken. One man dreams of escape, justice and revenge. Even if those dreams lead him to the rocky slope of a dragon's lair, where the fate of a kingdom, and the future of the elven people, will be decided in one final confrontation.
Changeling Moon
For thousands of years, they have lived among us. Their abilities have given rise to our oldest legends and our deepest fears.
They are changelings. Shape-shifters. Hunters. Creatures of the night. Ruled by the moon, and by their own savage hungers.
Some wish only to survive unnoticed in our world, to be left alone and have as little to do with us as possible. They keep to their laws and traditions. They keep to themselves. Their first and only loyalty is to the pack.
But there are those who are outcasts from their own kind. Outcasts, like the beautiful and ruthless Simone Drachen and her perversely devoted son.
They have broken the ancient laws, tasted of the forbidden, and gained greater power from it. To them, humans are not something to be avoided and tolerated.
To them, we are prey.
And now they have come to Trinity Bay, where one troubled young woman will be caught in the midst of their deadly conflict.
Aiden Ferguson has lost everyone she ever cared about. Orphaned, alone, reclusive and shy, she leads a quiet existence in her little house on the beach, until a chance meeting with a handsome stranger begins to draw her out of her shell. An unexpected friendship with a flamboyant actress draws her out even more.
For the first time in years, Aiden is learning to love life again … just as her life, her soul and her very humanity are threatened by the cold white light of the . . . Changeling Moon.
