It’s the 4th of July and it’s a Friday, so naturally we are celebrating Alice in Wonderland. In addition to being America’s birthday, Lewis Carroll‘s classic is celebrated today. Also celebrated today? These authors below who are releasing new books today.
Devil's Damnation is the first book in The Saint’s Outlaws MC – Laurel Springs, AL Chapter Series by USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Laramie Briscoe. In Laurel Springs, Alabama, a town that idolizes its law enforcement, the new chapter of the Saint’s Outlaws Motorcycle Club is gaining ground, quietly and strategically. One member, a man who once followed the law without question, now lives a double life, hiding secrets from everyone, including his wife.
As the line between cop and outlaw blurs, trust within the club is tested. With the club embedded in the local Emergency Response Team, or possibly the other way around, no one knows who is really pulling the strings. Loyalties will be challenged in a town where nothing is as it seems.
The Game of Gods Series by JA Huss continues with Godslayer. Tyse and Clara are forced into the brutal Game of Gods, navigating a world of engineered augments and rising powers that change them both. As Clara struggles to hold onto the man she once knew, Tyse becomes something unrecognizable. Meanwhile, Jasina and Finn, survivors of Tau City’s destruction, aim to dismantle the gods’ control by targeting their towers. But the train line hides dark secrets, forgotten cities, and a hidden AI with its own plan. With loyalty fraying and hard truths surfacing, survival comes at a cost that will test love, trust, and what it means to be human.
Ominous Dead is the latest book in the Stay Dead Series by L.C. Mortimer. In the middle of a brutal winter and a world overrun by the undead, Winter, Alice, Emily, Luke, Isaiah, and Greta stumble across a remote mansion that offers shelter and a strange collection of keys. As they try to determine whether this place can become a safe haven, new dangers begin to stir. The dead may rise again, secrets are uncovered, and trust begins to crack. When Luke discovers something hidden and forbidden, the group must face the truth that safety may only be an illusion in a world where the dead refuse to stay buried.
The third Theft of Decks in the Theft of Decks Series by Lars Machmüller will be released today. Chase and his crew of outlaw card-wielders thought they had found safety in Earth’s Ward, but a fanatical army targets them for extermination. Forced to flee, they venture into the deadly Furyborn lands to seek a mythical Fury deck, their only hope for survival. The locals are violent, the mission is near impossible, and betrayal lurks at every turn. With danger rising and allies dwindling, the group must gamble everything to stay alive in a world where cards hold power and trust is rare.
