Synopsis The Fylking Omnibus: Books 1-2 by : F.T. McKinstry

War has the ears of wolves. High fantasy woven with Norse mythology, swords and sorcery. In the worlds of their dominion they are called the Fylking, lovers of strife, song and steel, an immortal race of warriors akin to the Otherworld. Their empires span the heavens; their deities, ruled by the elusive Raven God, embody the forces of war, wisdom, passion and nature. This series tells the exploits of the Fylking and their mortal observers — warriors, royals, seers, lovers, warlocks and mercenaries — generations upon generations coexisting in uneasy peace with the Gods of War. This omnibus edition includes both books in the series, Outpost and The Wolf Lords. Also includes a glossary and a link to a high resolution map. “The tone is excellent, reminiscent of some of the earliest examples of grim Norse fantasy.” – G.R. Matthews, Fantasy Faction

Synopsis Wolf's Revenge: Shifter Legacies by : Mark E. Cooper

Los Angeles, a city where vampires and shifters live and maintain an uneasy peace with humans. It's a city where violence simmers just below the surface, ready to erupt at the slightest provocation. Lieutenant Christine Humber of the LAPD's robbery homicide division is well aware of that potential. She has worked for years in the city's most violent district, known locally as Monster Central. Called to a murder scene, Chris and her partner learn that their latest victim is a werewolf and shifters are very hard to kill. Who or what can kill a werewolf and leave no trace? With the body count mounting among the shapeshifter community, and the media screaming about police incompetence, Chris and her partner race to find answers to calm things down before a war breaks out and spills on to the streets. A new Urban Revolt feels imminent, with non-humans of all kinds lining up ready and willing to oppose human aggression and prejudice. The fragile peace teeters on the edge while a very special serial killer takes down Monster Central's bad boys one by one with impunity. Desperate for a break in the case, and frustrated at every turn by closed mouthed shifters unwilling to deal with the police who they perceive as the enemy, Chris is stunned when the FBI take a hand and threaten to take her case. Determined not to hand things over quietly, she accepts the inevitable, and together with the overly slim and beautiful Agent Flint, Chris and her now smitten partner work together to find some answers. One night while on a stakeout that she hopes will bear fruit, Chris comes face to face with the reality of hunting a werewolf, and her life is forever changed. Ripped to pieces and left barely alive, she wakes in the hospital to discover she's become one of the monsters that she hunted. With no way back, her humanity stolen, and with nothing left to live for but revenge, she enters a paranormal world of night club owning vampires and sexy alpha werewolves. Lawrence Bailey is certainly that, but she's looking for payback not werewolf romance, and she doesn't need a man no matter how buff to fight her battles for her. She had never been shy about fighting her own, she wasn't going to start now. Author's note: "For best enjoyment, read these shifter books in order. Wolf's Revenge is book 2 of the Shifter Legacies Series. I hope you like it." Reading order: 1. Way of the Wolf 2. Wolf's Revenge 3. Wolf's Justice (TBA) 4. Wolf's War (TBA)

And the armies of the Dark Empire are relentlessly taking over the once-peaceful city states, ravaging and destroying as they advance, mile by brutal mile ...

But before he can defy the Dark Empire and win the beauteous Yisselda, he must seek the Runestaff, a quest that will send him into barbaric wonder and perverse evil ... and only if he succeeds will her avert the doom of all the world ...
