    About this ebook

    When the prey becomes the hunter …

     

    Miranda Fletcher lives in a glittering world of aeronauts and artists, dance cards and dandies, but terror lurks outside the city walls. The countryside is infested with hungry abominations called the Unseen, and a single crack in the capital's defenses invites disaster.

     

    Then Miranda witnesses a murder and learns the walls aren't as secure as their magical protectors claim. But despite a string of bloody crimes, no one is foolhardy enough to question the mages, much less battle monsters at the gate.

     

    Except Miranda. When tragedy shatters her home, she'll risk everything to get answers—and vengeance. Even death.

     

    Sometimes the smallest creature carries the deadliest sting.

      A Dragon’s Perspective

      Jun 10, 2022

      There once lived a dragon named Deathwing. Well, at least that’s what they called him. Deathwing was growing old, far too old for his liking. The joints of his claws ached and groaned under his ever-growing weight and his scales were beginning to los

      The Kobold In The Corner

      Nov 1, 2022

      Friedrich lives by himself on a rundown farm. By the chimney sits a wooden carving of a little man. It has been there since the days of Oma Elsa, Friedrich’s grandmother. “That’s our kobold,” Friedrich’s mother told him before she passed away. “He wa
