A small Dublin pub …

… holds the key to humanity’s survival.

Who will learn its secret?



Half vampire, half fae, Phoenix is an abomination in the eyes of the supernatural community. Screw them! She’s more than happy to play human in the cosy Irish pub she calls home.

At least until an annoying werewolf comes knocking.

Because Phoenix may be done with the supernatural world, but it’s not quite done with her.

Her birth has triggered a prophecy, and now the clock is ticking. Humanity will be the first to suffer for her existence.

Everything, and everyone, she loves is in danger, and as the body count rises Phoenix must learn to embrace the darkest parts of herself.

Or lose it all.

If you like gripping urban fantasy with some serious attitude, you’ll love this debut novel from Irish author L.M. Hatchell.

Fire and Water don’t mix.Sophia

I’m Sophia Henley, your typical college freshman. I never expected a lion to be stalking me, nor for fire to come shooting out of my hands to protect my sister. Next thing I know, a drop-dead gorgeous guy shows up on my doorstep to sweep me away to a magical school, where I’ll learn to control my element and bond with a powerful creature called a Familiar.

I don’t believe I’m the savior of an ancient tribe, or the missing piece of a prophecy that’s more myth than reality. Worst of all, I’m forced to enter the Elemental Cup, where I’ll either earn my place in this society… or die trying.

Liam

The night I met Sophia, I didn’t think we’d form an undeniable connection. But I’m from the Water tribe, and she’s fire. I’m forced to push her away even as I’m falling for her.

I lost everything, yet Sophia makes me whole again. Our world is fixed on keeping us apart, but we’re in this tournament together. We have to keep each other alive at any cost— or I’ll give my life for hers. It’s pretty clear.

If I continue to play with fire, I’m going to get burned.

Shipwrecked on a distant planet. Mysterious alien relics. His fresh start just turned into an interstellar conspiracy.

After an undercover investigation goes bad, ex-soldier Evan hopes to forge a new life on a remote colony world. But when the transport ship explodes in orbit, his plans for a peaceful early retirement go out the airlock.

Can Evan survive the hostile planet long enough to uncover the truth?

In the grim darkness of humanity’s future, even noble blood won’t protect you from what lurks in the depths…
Seventeen-year-old Paric Kilhaven had his life mapped out as a noble scion in the towering hive-city of Hydra Secundus, but that life ends when he’s attacked in the city’s lawless underhive and infected with a mysterious substance that unlocks doors to another dimension.

Surviving the attack, Paric is thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse. Working covertly for the Ecclesiarchy, he must navigate between rival hive gangs and corrupt nobles while investigating rumors of a Chaos cult. He soon finds a dire threat hidden in the underhive’s shadows—a Warp witch preparing to birth a daemon that could destroy everything Paric has ever known. Relying on outlawed powers, unlikely allies, and a determination to protect those he’s grown to care for, Paric must stop the witch before it’s too late.

Set against the backdrop of a rigidly hierarchical hive-city, “Psyker” offers a compelling exploration of unmatched power, politics and identity, where one’s existence is both a duty and curse.

Part adventure, part mystery, this dystopian science fantasy novel is appropriate for Adult and Young Adult readers.
