Three butchered witches. An unknown killer. One big mistake: they left the familiar alive. Stella Familiar was created by the London Coven to protect the city from the monsters that lurk in the shadows. She’s fought against the darkness for decades, but now something new has come to town. Something that’s torn her world apart. This monster did the impossible: it murdered the three most powerful witches in London, putting the city in peril, and leaving Stella alone for the first time to fight back against a power she doesn’t understand. 

Once, there was magic in London, but when a monster made of hunger came to devour it all, the Uncanny were forced to abandon their home. And so they fled to Other London, a secret city adjacent to their own, and there they hid, barricaded and isolated from the rest of the world. For 200 years, the people of Other London have cowered behind closed doors. No one can get in, and no one can get out. Until, one day, the impossible happens: Someone from outside finds their way into the hidden city.

A witch’s familiar must protect London from the monsters that lurk in the shadows; the creatures that seek to unravel the fabric of things and send a city to hell. Stella Familiar was created by the London Coven out of spit and blood. She’s a fighter, a blunt instrument, built to destroy the forces of evil and keep peace in the capital. She’s carried out her duty for decades, but when the witches who gave birth to her are butchered, it’s up to her alone to save a city of nine million people. Mystery, scares, and fast-paced action collide in this thrilling urban fantasy.

Something is very wrong with Detective David Tyler. A creature of immense power has changed him; transformed him into a walking apocalypse. And the worst part? It's all Stella’s fault. She meddled with the dark arts and opened the door to the evil inside of David. People are scared. They want David dealt with before he turns London into a smoking crater, and they’re ready to put him down like a dog to do it. Can Stella fend them off and find a way to save her friend before he goes supernova, or is a city about to pay the price for her mistake?

Wake no more, said the fearful small, for now I am here, to punish you all. Stella Familiar is the only remaining member of the London Coven; an enforcer, built by witches to destroy the monsters that seek to destroy humankind. She’s good at her job, but now she’s facing a challenge she can't put her fist through. One by one, the children of London are falling asleep, and they're not waking up again. A terrifying phantom from the city’s past has returned, and it’s found a way to burrow into the minds of children.

If you could control gravity, would you build a moon base? Art Feldmann’s discovery had made that possible. Even as a child, Peter had wanted to go and work on the moon. He was curious about the moon toilets. He’d known the job as moon major in charge of 11 moononauts wasn’t going to be easy, and he’d looked forward to the challenge of a five-year shift, but he hadn’t expected quite so much responsibility. The four-day Annual Closure that protected them from the Leonids Meteor shower, hadn’t ended as planned. The problems began when they opened the shields....
