Perfect for fans of Twilight and The Cruel Prince, M.C. Ryder continues her spellbinding young adult urban fantasy series with a series of shorts that build out the backstory and add to this YA fantasy world. Exploring modern themes in the paranormal world of vampires, werewolves, shapeshifters, and magic, this supernatural coming-of-age epic fulfills a destiny and brings a satisfying ending for the mythical warriors engaged in a battle of good vs evil. Or is it the end?
A Darker Demise is a phenomenal anthology that captivated me from the start thanks to the unique premise, addictive literature, and shocking/moving elements laced throughout them! Never before have I read such an imaginative and mysterious collection of stories... -- Red Headed Book Lover ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A Unity of Balance
In a time when witches existed, and the magical world was torn between light and dark, difficult choices needed to be made. In A prequel to The Dark Series, experience Immilla's journey in her own words and follow her through the trials and tribulations that end with the Dragon's Eye prophecy. Balance will be restored...but at what cost?
My Salvation
There was only one thing on Marc's mind when he unwillingly changed into a vampire: revenge. In order to have a chance at retribution, he had to play the part - blind obedience while suppressing emotion. When the moment finally comes, his world changes with one split-second decision. With blood on his hands, will he find salvation?
The Path to Redemption
What if your death was not your true end? What if the next world left you with more questions than answers? What if, in order to find the redemption you seek, you had to listen, learn, and liberate? Would you be able to, without understanding what you're supposed to learn or knowledge about what to do with it? Would you find a way to be able to liberate yourself to discover the redemption you so earnestly need?
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys semi-dark fantasy stories that resonate with defiant characters. -- Amy Raines for Readers' Favorite
