The Goblin Crown
Will be released April 7, 2026
Aren is a shapeshifter, able to run with a centaur herd, fly on a hawk’s wings, and scurry through the kitchens to the screams of the innkeeper’s family.
At nineteen, he’s an elf, flirting his way through the Queen’s Court to find out what killed his mother and cursed his village. Unfortunately, it only takes one misstep to alert the elves to the shapeshifter in their midst. With the palace hunting the imposter and a human delegation arriving at Court—including a too-familiar human prince—Aren must walk a careful line to piece together the truth of what happened all those years ago.
At age six, she’s a human foundling, abandoned to the care of the village hedgewitch. With refugees fleeing a strange upheaval in the north, spirits singing to her from a haunted forest, and the hedgewitch working to stop a looming disaster, she won’t escape her childhood unchanged.

The Meister of Decimen City
No one cares that you cured cancer if you also cloned a horde of dinosaurs and let them rampage down the street.
Supergenius and quasi-villain Rex normally can’t go a week without accidentally endangering Decimen City with her science shenanigans. It’s been two weeks since her genetically engineered dinosaurs rampaged through town—a good streak for her—but the peace is broken when actual villain Last Dance sets his sights on Decimen. And he wants Rex’s help. Before Rex can say “I didn’t do it,” superheroes who’ve dragged her to jail on her worst days are crowding her lab to conscript her into quasi-herodom.
Rex would rather stay out of it and deal with the dinosaurs that keep calling her Mom, but she can’t ignore that she was somewhat responsible for Last Dance’s villainy. She’d kept a very disorganized lab. And he was such a nosy brother. She failed to help him back then, but maybe if she stops him now—and keeps the heroes fooled—she can finally set things right.
