Epic Fantasy

Banners of Iron and Ash

The first refugee stumbles past Seraphine Voss’s window at dusk, and she doesn’t look up. She’s watched Threshfield burn for hours, a slow, smoldering pyre on the horizon, but the fire is no longer distant. The empire’s banners, iron and ash, are coming, and with them, the war she fled years ago. Now, as the village she abandoned collapses into ruin, Seraphine must confront the past she buried: the betrayals, the blood, and the name she left behind. But the empire doesn’t forget. And when its forces arrive, they bring more than torches and blades, they bring a reckoning. Seraphine’s exile is over. The question is whether she’ll fight for the world that cast her out or let it burn. The choice will cost her everything.

Military Sci-Fi

Iron Meridian

The Raft Sector is a graveyard of ambition, where asteroids tumble like broken teeth and the remnants of humanity cling to survival. Elara Voss, disgraced and stripped of command, watches from the shadows as the colony transport Solace-7 drifts into danger, its cargo of four thousand sleeping civilians a prize for pirates, mercenaries, and warlords. When a distress signal from her former crew pulls her back into the fray, Elara must confront the choices that led to her downfall, and the factions who will kill to control the sector’s last hope. But the Raft doesn’t forgive. With the Solace-7’s power failing and enemies closing in, Elara’s every move risks igniting a conflict that could shatter the fragile peace. Worse, the secrets hidden in the transport’s cargo pods may be worth more than lives, and the highest bidder isn’t playing by the rules. To save the colony, Elara must decide: betray the people who trusted her, or watch them die in the cold embrace of the void. In a system where mercy is a weakness, survival demands a price. And the bill is coming due.

Cozy Mystery

A Book of Small Deaths

The Atlantic wind howls against the cliffs as Maren Halliday steers her rental car into the salt-worn town of Blackthorn Cove, where the past isn’t just remembered, it’s preserved in meticulous, handwritten ledgers. Hired to catalog the estate of a reclusive historian, she expects dusty archives and faded photographs, not the cryptic marginalia that hints at a string of deaths stretching back decades. The locals call them accidents. The ledgers call them something else. When a fisherman washes ashore with his throat slit and a page from the estate’s records clutched in his fist, Maren realizes the town’s secrets aren’t just historical, they’re alive. The deeper she digs, the more the ledgers seem to rewrite themselves, as if the past is correcting its own narrative. But who’s pulling the strings? The retired detective who warns her to leave? The innkeeper with a missing daughter? Or the ocean itself, which has claimed more than its share of souls? With each small death, the stakes grow clearer: Maren’s name is already in the book. The only question is whether she’ll close it before the final chapter is written, or become another entry in Blackthorn Cove’s bloody history.

Gothic Horror

The Bleeding Crown

The knife slips into the leather with a hiss, each stroke a prayer against the dark. Aldara Voss has spent years running from the thing that wears her mother’s face in the mirror, from the way the moors hum with voices that aren’t wind, from the house that breathes when the candles gutter low. Now, cornered in the cellar with the last dry corner of stone at her back, she begins to write, because the journal isn’t just paper and thread, and the Bleeding Crown isn’t just a story. The town of Hollow’s End has always been sick. The children vanish first, then the old, then the ones who ask too many questions. But Aldara’s words have power, the kind that seeps into the walls and makes the rafters weep rust-colored tears. The house remembers what she’s tried to forget: the night the sky split open, the way her father’s hands shook as he nailed the doors shut, the crown of thorns and bone that waits in the dark. And now, as the ink dries black as old blood, the house is listening. The Bleeding Crown is coming. The question is whether Aldara will finish the story, or become its next chapter.
