Game of Thrones meets Spartacus

In an ancient world of sand and splendor, an empire awakens.

Aelar, a mighty nation, spreads its tentacles. Its oared galleys storm the seas, and the waters run red with blood. Its legionaries swarm desert ruins, smiting barbarian hordes. Its crosses line the roadsides, displaying the dying flesh of heroes.

The Aelarian empire rises. The old world falls.

The powerful Sela family has avoided the empire until now. The family has carved out an idyllic life between sea and desert, ruling a bustling port, a thriving city, and lush vineyards. Yet when an imperial fleet arrives in their harbor, everything the Sela family has built threatens to collapse.

Sweeping from snowy forests to cruel deserts, from bazaars of wonder to fields of war, here is a tale of legionaries and lepers, priests and paupers, kings and crows. Here a girl travels across endless dunes, seeking magic; a cruel prince struggles to claim a bloodstained throne; and a young soldier fights to hold back an overwhelming host. As the empire spreads, the fate of the Sela family–and of all civilization–stands upon a knife’s edge, for under the storm of war, even the greatest nations are but kingdoms of sand.

She’s got the powers of a dragon, and the Slayers are closing in…

Kaylee just blasted her first date with lightning. She has no idea how, but when the creep pulls a sword on her, what’s a girl to do?

Soon, she’s discovering a whole magical world she had no clue existed, all hidden in plain sight. And that lightning she summoned? Even among paranormals, that’s not normal.

Turns out Kaylee is a dragon-kin, a half dragon/half human with the incredibly rare power to summon storms. As if that weren’t trouble enough, her newly discovered magic has attracted the wrong kind of attention: Slayers, a murderous ancient order dedicated to eradicating all dragon-kin. They’re planning something big. Something deadly.

And they’re going to use Kaylee to do it.

A mysterious stranger. A murderous ambush. A sinister plot in the deep desert.
And… a fleeting image of a future romance.


Since the death of her sister, Alissa has always felt a restlessness that keeps drawing her back into the great sand sea of Irithen, a remote province on a distant planet.

Her attempt to save Talin’s life confronts her with terrifying memories of her past – and a ruthless military attack in the heart of the desert.

She has trained in the intense shaman-warrior skills that might help her survive in this vast expanse of sand, heat, enormous lizards and poisonous scorpions.

Learning to fly a giant condor before it kills her might help as well.

But who is the mysterious off-world mercenary in that fleeting glimpse on stolen video?

The battle and the threat to her city will demand everything of her – challenges, loss, and the understanding that the ultimate defeat of these stealth-invaders will be a long campaign, demanding every ally and resource she and her people can muster.

Duneflyer is the first book in the Stormweaver series, the far-future adventure-romance by Jay Aspen.

Perfect for fans of Avatar and Lord of the Rings

He does the government’s dirty work. When he’s double-crossed by one of his own, he’ll stop at nothing to take out the trash.

Korea, 22nd Century. Surrender isn’t in Stefan Mendoza’s DNA. So when a traitor betrays his black-ops team, he alone pushes through the torture and escapes with revenge burning in his mind. On the verge of a systems failure, he taps into his underground network for a set of cybernetic limbs. But his high-tech recovery comes at a heavy price—an assassination hit on a rising political star.

Filled with resentment for the cutthroat world of contract killers, he uses the hit job as a cover to track down the traitor. When he discovers he’s competing with other assassins for the same political target, he starts to piece together a sinister conspiracy that could lead him straight to the shadowy figure behind his betrayal.

Trapped within a hotbed of corruption, can Mendoza exact his revenge and win his freedom or will he spiral deeper into the twisted game of brokered death?

Into Twilight is the first book in The Stefan Mendoza Trilogy of high-octane cyberpunk techno-thrillers. If you like street-smart soldiers, complex conspiracies, and immersive sci-fi settings, then you’ll love P.R. Adams’s noir-style page-turner.
