  The Malison Series

  The histories of Old Earth record that in the Year of Our Lord 778, Charlemagne’s rearguard under the command of Count Roland of the Breton March was ambushed and slain to a man.

  But Roland and his men were drawn through another magical gate, to a new and strange world of magic and deadly creatures. A world where every man, no matter what his estate or rank, no matter how poor or common or rich and powerful, was born with the power of magic.

  But the magic of this world carries a deadly curse, and the price for abusing its power is ruinous.

  This, then, is the story of the kingdom they built, and the knight who would decide its fate.

  Cloak Games

  The High Queen of the Elves has conquered Earth, but I don't care about that.

  I don't care about the High Queen, or the Rebels seeking to overthrow her. All I care about is getting my baby brother the treatments he needs to recover from his potentially fatal disease…and those treatments have a steep price.

  Fortunately, I have magic of my own, and I'm a very, very good thief.

  Unfortunately, the powerful Elven lord Morvilind has a hold over me. If I don't follow his commands, my brother is going to die.

  Of course, given how dangerous Morvilind’s missions are, I might not live long enough to see my brother’s death…
