Although Darkover was a world inhabited by humans as well as semi-humans, it was primarily forbidden ground to the Terran traders. Most of the planet’s wild terrain was unexplored...and many of its peoples seclusive and secretive. But for Andrew Carr, there was an attraction he could not evade. Darkover drew him, Darkover haunted him — and when his mapping plane crashed in unknown heights, Darkover prepared to destroy him.

David Fisher pushes paper for the EPA in a world that's a lot like ours...only different. In this California - and throughout the alternate United States - all gods are real, science doesn't exist, and magic rules everything, running imp-driven computers and creating anxiety-inducing bumper-to-bumper flying-carpet rush hours. Unfortunately, unchecked magic use can leave dangerous residues, creating hours of mind-numbing deskwork for David and his fellow bureaucrats at the Environmental Perfection Agency. 

Scranton, the strangest city on earth has an uneasy “live and let unlive” relationship with the supernatural. But when a vamp puts the bite on an unwilling victim, or some witch casts the wrong kind of spell, that’s when they call me. “My name’s Markowski, a Detective Sergeant on the Scranton PD’s Supernatural Crimes Investigation Unit. I carry a badge. Also, a crucifix, some wooden stakes, a big vial of holy water, and a 9mm Beretta loaded with silver bullets.”

The enchanted uniforms the prisoners wear may beget a demand for mages, but using luckless convicts as tools for warmongering reactionaries isn’t Paul’s dream for cloth magic.

Unfortunately, her new assignment is sending her undercover into a realm where even the most powerful paranormals fear to tread…her old high school. Being a human immune to magic is no defense against soulless picture-perfect mean girls - or a secret witch coven about to sacrifice a missing female student.

I was out of money and options when this mysterious woman offered me 5,000 dollars to get a tattoo. That seemed like a no-brainer. When I got tired of the tattoo, I figured I would just magically transfer it onto something else. No big deal. One missing person, one mutated kitten, one local crime lord, and a dozen cockroaches later, it turns out it was kind of a big deal. This hilarious urban fantasy is the kind of comedy that might happen if Kafka and Wodehouse got together for drinks.
