A collection of six otherworldly tales from the author of We Burn Our Dead Tell No Tales.

Magic isn’t what people think it is. It isn’t studying incantations in mystical schools. There are no robes or wands, and certainly no close friends. After all, they might get killed for just hanging out with me. Take it from one of the spell-touched. Real magic takes the insanity to comprehend the true fabric of the world, the creativity to imagine a cast, and the ability to channel enough arcane energy to force reality itself to conform. I have to do all this without becoming so mana-drunk that I fall unconscious.

Leeann Wu’s hands have started glowing at the most inconvenient times, and the single mother and midwife doesn’t know why. Could it be perimenopause? A hallucination brought on by a lack of sleep? On top of that concerning development, her daughter is off to university in a few months, her tenuous relationship with her ob-gyn mother is in peril of cracking, and she’s attracted the attention of a younger man who sees far more than she’s comfortable with. Her hands, glowing or not, are already full.

When Kiara is unwillingly bonded to a Demon, they must work together to save humanity. This news shatters Kiara’s life: her boyfriend, James—childhood love and the one she was certain she’d spend forever with—is dead. Now, he wants to talk to her. Damian, the demon now possessing James’ body, and one of the many monsters prowling amongst mostly ignorant humans, couldn’t care less about Kiara. Until she tries to kill him and he’s forced to make a contract with her to stay alive. Her first love is now her monstrous enemy.

When the Angelic Kingdom struck, they shattered the demonic legions, driving them back to the Second Circle. Now, Jake leads a broken army, entrenched at the Academy for Demonic Education and struggling for their very survival.

Morrigan's existence as a reaper is now in full swing. Despite adjusting to her new role as a bringer of death, she soon finds out that the previous desertion of her duties did not go unnoticed, nor without consequences. She'll also have to contend with the fallout of abandoning her human life, as simply disappearing isn't as easy as it may have seemed. Meanwhile, Death's own past may have some fallout on their lives as his last apprentice is likewise more than just a memory.

At least, that’s how it’s been for the last five thousand years. With the loss of her horns, hand, sword, name, and witch, Bex is closer to defeat than she’s ever been before, but the Blade of Ishtar has never been a quitter. She’s determined to come back from her ashes, which means it’s time to do something crazy, something she’s never attempted in any of her previous lives. She’s going to hell. Literally.

In this hotly-requested collection of after-stories, the colorful residents of the Spirit Realm take center stage!

Winifred “Fred” Crowsdale thought life couldn’t get worse after a decade-long relationship ended in humiliating betrayal. Then, her rambunctious husky chewed through a door, prompting her furious landlord to kick them out—and ban them from every rental in town. Her one glimmer of hope? A mysterious, sentient house that offers them a home. But Fred’s luck takes a deadly turn when a daylight food-delivery gig in the Vampire Sector goes wrong… leaving her with fangs, an insatiable thirst, and a kill-on-sight warrant from the ruthless vampire court.

Nothing ruins your day more than a bloated, stinking corpse on your doorstep. My natural optimism has taken a serious beating lately. I’ve been working my butt off, drafting a series of outreach programs to help the poor, lost supe kids of the Hidden City before they fall through the cracks in our society and end up in our Otherworld Child Protective system. There’s one thing I desperately need, and that’s funding. But there’s no money to be had. Nobody wants to invest in these kids; it’s enough to break your heart.

After the events of Blood Coven, Alina, Sorin, Tatiana, and Lilianna mourn the loss of Red. Stranded in the outskirts of Silvania, they have nowhere to go. Howls permeate the Mørke Forest as a pack closes in, taking back the land that was theirs before the Luca curse stole it from them. When a mysterious woman arrives, she promises them protection within a sisterhood. The Coven is forced to decide if they should stay in Silvania, where they will surely be tried and killed for their witchcraft, or journey to Osleka with Torenia Luca, whom Silvania still fears, eighty years after her crimes.

Returning home to the sleepy town of Claw Haven wasn't on chimera Arthur Pineclaw's Christmas list, not since he left for LA a decade ago. He just needs to survive two weeks of filming a snowy, cozy holiday romance, and charming his local fans. Emma would rather eat coal than be civil to the guy who abandoned her to become a movie star.

I get called out to a huge mansion with the biggest number of invading gnomes I’ve ever seen, and I’m not sure who to call to help. And I definitely need some help. So when Winter Montgomery just so happens to stop by, I know I have to ask him. I’ve been crushing on the handsome guy from afar for years, so now’s my chance to get close—and get some much needed support. As long as I don’t let him see just how much I hate gnomes—okay, I’m actually terrified of them, but he doesn’t need to know that… right?

Twenty years ago teenager Bree Watson had the world at her fingertips. The only thing she was worried about was which Grimlock brother she had the biggest crush on. Then, in a moment of confusion while playing with a Ouija board, she disappeared. Nobody knew what happened to her. Her parents were cleared of suspicion. The girls with her that night didn’t have any answers. She was just gone. And now she’s back. Luna Thorn knows something is very wrong with what happened. Bree went somewhere for twenty years but she came back looking the same, and claiming no time has passed. It’s a miracle…

Viv Abbot is an average twenty-one-year-old girl. She just also happens to be a demon hunter. If she enrolls, she'll learn to hone her craft, work with other hunters, and never be alone again. When strange occurrences begin to plague the students, Viv will have to figure out who she can trust, and fast.

First 36 hours of the apocalypse completed. How much worse can a life reset alongside your ex and her hostile new boyfriend get? Neil and his small party have survived the initial cull on the vacation island. They've made enough early progression to fight off the first wave of mutated creatures. And to keep other out of control survivors at bay. But even that wasn't enough leveling up to save the life of one of their party. And they've been warned that the dangers of this new life will only increase. Now, there's more trouble brewing too for Neil.

Corinthe has spent a lifetime longing for excitement outside her sleepy human village. As a dhampir born of a human mother and vampire father, her unique abilities make her desired by those who lurk across the Feyline—the boundary that keeps the magical realm in perpetual twilight where vampires hold dominion. To stay safe, she’s concealed her supernatural strength and taste for blood from her human neighbors, but when her yearning for excitement accidentally exposes her gifts, she is captured to sell to the highest bidder. Terrified, she expects the worst.
