Acton, a mouse, must go to the Dark Isles, his original homeland that he escaped so long ago.  Mier, a Wolfen and Acton's lover, takes a journey back to the Wolfen Valley, even if his own people will not welcome him.  For the final piece, Vorel and Rasvim - a married wolf and fox - head East in hopes of finding safe travel to the otter nation of Shin-se.

Can their relationships survive distance, interference, and the fear of death?

There, Elor is forced to confront gangsters, thugs, gun runners, and bloodthirsty smugglers... and his ex boyfriend, a wolf named Vinz, who fled the surface nine years before.  Complicating things even further, Vinz's current love interest- a fox named Laz- ends up falling for Elor.

Will Elor be sucked into a life of crime? Will Elor reunite with Vinz, or will Laz break Vinz's heart? And how long can they survive inside the dark, sunless holds of the Basecraft Cirrostratus?

In this land where stories are as much a currency as gold or silver, secrets - the stories you don't tell - also have their price. Nivvy the thief keeps many secrets, having left his home for the Thieves Guild, then having left the Thieves Guild - involuntarily - for a life alone. His fortune changes the day Bella, a mysterious woman in an ancient dress, hires him for a nigh-impossible theft: to steal back the kingdom she claims is her own. If Nivvy is equal to this epic task, surely he will be admitted back to proper disreputability in the Thieves Guild.

But Bella has secrets of her own, and her quest is not what it appears to be. As Nivvy uncovers some of the truths behind what he'd dismissed as ancient stories and Bella's improbable connection to those tales, he realizes that this journey is more dangerous than he could have dreamed. If he survives this adventure, merely stealing a kingdom couldn't hold a candle to the rest of the story...

For Kip, growing up in shadow of the human men-only Prince George's College of Sorcery has been nineteen years of frustration. Magic comes naturally to him, yet he's not allowed to study sorcery because he's a Calatian--one of a magically created race of animal people. But when a mysterious attack leaves the masters desperate for apprentices, they throw their doors open, giving Kip his chance.

As he fights to prove his worth to the human sorcerers, he encounters other oddities: a voice that speaks only to him, a book that makes people forget he's there, and one of the masters who will only speak to him through a raven. Greater than any of those mysteries or even whether the College's attacker will return to finish the job is the mystery of how Kip and his friends can prove that this place is where they belong...

Grayson Reed, Privateer and infamous never do well, famed… or perhaps more infamous, for both his daring exploits and embarrassing personal scandals, is a wolf known in nearly every port in the known world. For better or for worse.

But that certainly wasn’t always the case.

The disinherited scion of a trade cartel, born to ill-gotten wealth and privilege, he turned against the very merchants he was born to. His knowledge of the wealthy society he now plunders generally serves him well.

But now, fearing the very real threat of an equally infamous, and equally scandalous pirate hunter known for his ferocity and sharp mind, Grayson finds his usual tactics may not avail him. This is not a man he can predict. So perhaps, an alliance is in order.

An unusual pact is struck. Misadventure is sure to follow.

The powerful clans of Mataa are searching for them, but Kadar and the other fugutives have decided to come for them first, in pursuit of true, everlasting freedom—the Liberator. A man who could remove their collars , and potentially start a revolution that could free many more.

Kadar's search for his lost family continues, meanwhile. But even if he can reunite with his son, it may only be in chains. In a country where half the population is enslaved, the war for freedom continues.

Kadar was born into one of the lowest castes in his society—the laborers. That is, until a series of unfortunate events trapped him in the only life worse, that of an indentured servant. Literally collared by the powerful hyena clan that holds his contract, Kadar now finds himself facing a dangerous decision. Live as a slave, or fight for freedom.

Joined by a hyena held captive by his own kind, a guard with a grudge against the very people he works for, and an indomitable cheetah, Kadar faces an uncertain future in a land where centuries of dependence on slavery and warfare make real freedom of any kind, for any caste, a dream that might be worth dying for.

New allies and new dangers emerge, but in a foreign land, forced to choose sides in a foreign war, she is surprised to find kinship with many of the strange new people around her. Their lives may have been far apart from hers, but their struggles, she can understand. 

Her revenge may be close at hand, but will it give her the peace she’s been seeking?  Or will it consume her, as the Crow spirit has always promised?

Continuously haunted by a spirit bent on pushing her down a path of vengeance, Shivah has begun to question whether chasing revenge is worth throwing her life away, or if there's a better future ahead of her, and a chance at real peace… the most elusive quarry of all for a woman whose heart is consumed by grief and anger.

Spending her life beneath the oppressive control of an abusive husband she'd had no choice in marrying was a hard life, but Shivah strove to endure it in order to protect her child.

When her child was slain, and Shivah herself viciously attacked and left for dead, she swore she'd make her husband pay dearly for his greatest mistake...leaving her alive.

She is joined in her hunt by the two men who pulled her from the jaws of death, and a group of lawmen hunting a dangerous band of raiders threatening the countryside. But there may be deeper, more widespread evils hidden in the shadows of the conflict she finds herself a part of.
