Saevus Corax Deals with the Dead

This satirical, tongue-in-cheek humorous first book in a trilogy is outlined in first person by the unreliable narration of Corax as he journeys and comments on the various events that happen to him. Readers who like Peter David, A. Lee Martinez, or the Guardians of the Galaxy movies will find this title right up their alley with similar tones, fantastical plots, and over-the-top characters.

Downfall of the Gods

Parker (The Folding Knife; Sharps) channels his alter ego Tom Holt to bring a full measure of snark to this novella. The Goddess's interactions with her family are laugh-out-loud funny as is the increasingly hapless Lord Archias, who soon prays that the Goddess will just leave him alone. Regrettably, this delightful book is currently only available as a $40 special edition hardcover.

Blue and Gold
