The Death Keeper Chronicles: A Light in the Darkness by Daniel R Hersch

The Death Keeper Chronicles: A Light in the Darkness by Daniel R Hersch

Three thousand years ago, in the ancient land of Huaxia, Yiyao was betrayed by the man she loved and transformed into something feared and cursed. Cast out by her family and hunted by guilt, she wandered the earth for millennia until an encounter with a Carpenter in Israel offered her the impossible: forgiveness, and a purpose that could outlast eternity.

Now she lives in the shadows of modern Arizona, hiding what she is. But the past has a way of finding the living.

Alexander Wren was born with psychic gifts he never asked for, powers as dangerous as they are rare. Once an investigator. Now a recluse. When fate pulls him into Yiyao’s orbit, something long buried stirs in both of them, and something ancient takes notice.

When an attempted kidnapping throws them before the Court, a hidden tribunal that governs vampires and psychics with ruthless authority, they find themselves hunted by Min, a sadistic vampire newly unleashed, and entangled in a conspiracy reaching back to a terror older than either of them: the Ones Who Laugh.

To survive, Alexander and Yiyao must fight not just for justice, but for each other, and for the redemption neither believed they deserved.

A Light in the Darkness is the first book in the Death Keeper Chronicles, a darkly theological urban fantasy series for readers who want their supernatural fiction to ask questions worth answering.

Oaths of Blood by Logan D. Irons

Oaths of Blood by Logan D. Irons

Jerusalem, 1099. The armies of Christendom have marched across the known world to claim the Holy City — and mercenary captain Robert Cutnose is in the belly of a siege tower when the walls finally fall. But what waits inside Jerusalem is far more terrifying than arrows and spears.
Attacked in the savage dark, Cutnose wakes with his throat torn out and something ancient crawling through his veins. He is no longer simply a soldier for hire. He is a pawn in the Noctis Bellum — an immortal war older than the Crusades itself — fought between a secret Order and the creatures they call the Hunted, over a relic of power neither side will surrender.
To reclaim his humanity, Cutnose must hunt down the man who turned him. With a secretive band of warriors at his side and enemies on every front, he crawls deeper into the shadows of a world he never knew existed — where the line between monster and man is razor thin, and loyalty is paid for in blood.
Gray heroes. Savage treachery. Valor and betrayal in equal measure.
Oaths of Blood is grimdark historical fantasy in the tradition of Joe Abercrombie, Bernard Cornwell, and John Gwynne — action-packed, brutal, and impossible to put down.
Only oaths made in blood survive.

Ruby Ceit

About Ruby Ceit:

Ruby Ceit has mastered the art of balance.

By day, she is a celebrated designer and the owner of a coveted New York fashion boutique, moving with ease through a world of ambition, refinement, and success. At her side is Alton—her partner, her anchor, and the man she is building a future with. Marriage is no longer an abstract idea; it is approaching, tangible and real.

But by night, Ruby walks another city entirely- in her dreams.

When sleep overtakes the waking world, she crosses into the astral version of Manhattan, where hidden gateways and symbolic configurations that warp human reality must be found and neutralized. Ruby performs these nocturnal tasks in silence, because she knows the disturbances are deliberate, intelligent, and increasingly invasive.

Among the few who truly understand what is unfolding is Cillian Mondragon—an immortal warlock bound to Ruby across lifetimes. Once her ally, once her equal, Cillian has withdrawn to a newly forming dimension, one he believes may escape the decay spreading through this world. His distance is not indifference, but restraint. His continued watchfulness suggests the danger is far greater than Ruby has been told.

Caught between a future rooted in love and a destiny shaped across centuries, Ruby must decide who she is willing to become.

Because the gates are opening.
The past is no longer silent.

Ruby Ceit is a mystical urban fantasy of reincarnation, devotion, and destiny—where love exists firmly in the present, loyalty echoes through time, and the quiet war for reality is already underway.
