Bodies in the city were messy. Bodies in the desert were rarely found.

With an untested secretary and a dubious clue, Dr. Bactrian sets off to find the tomb of ancient queen Amatu and her notorious cursed collar. Each step comes with a new betrayal. Is it sabotage? Rival treasure-hunters? Her evil ex stalking her for one last, deadly encounter?

Finding lost relics is Jules' specialty. Finding them first is slightly more difficult. And surviving ancient curses? That's going to cost extra. Jules Bactrian, gemologist, historian, treasure hunter, lesbian, camel, at your service.

Cover by Renz

Verse is an emotionally detached and standoffish (former) pirate trying to get by in a dying world torn asunder by war. His mind shot full of holes, Verse can’t even remember how old he is. His only solace is escaping into dreams where he’s a beautiful woman with an older sister, who shields her from the cruelty of the outside world.

When the oceans die around their ship, Verse and his partner-in-crime Xan make their way inland, hoping to find a path back to their life of crime and big paydays. Along the way, they find themselves pursued, and sucked into a world-spanning holy war rife with super weapons, powerful magic and ancient gods.

All the while, the holes in Verse’s memory seem to be disappearing, and he’s beginning to realize that even his dreams may not be safe anymore. There’s something locked up inside Verse, and it may just be a monster.

Teku is not a necessary person.

His family was complete before he was born. Surplus to the needs of his household and even his village, he has come to dislike the face that stares back at him in his reflection. He has a sense that he is not where, or who, he should be.

The untamed wilds speak to him sometimes, wordlessly calling him away. There is acceptance, love, and purpose out there, somewhere beyond the trappings of humanity. He will leave behind everything he has ever known to seek it, and she will arrive gliding on outstretched wings.
