After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things: I’d find the cure for what ravaged her―and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me.
Four years later, I receive an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, a secluded, prestigious school on an island off the coast of Maine. Legends say it’s haunted by the exiled souls of long-dead patients.
But the ghosts aren’t even its most daunting peculiarity.
Devryck Bramwell, known on campus as Doctor Death, is my devastatingly handsome professor. He loathes first-years like me―yet his dark gaze tells me all the ways he’d devour me if given the chance, and his stolen kisses burn with forbidden jealousy. Together, we’re a toxic disaster waiting to be exposed.
And when the truth surfaces, we may be the ones to resurrect Dracadia’s most depraved secret.

In the grimly captivating sequel to Anathema, Maevyth and Zevander must
navigate the perilous mortal lands to deliver Zevander from the
clutches of an ancient, malevolent power that threatens to shatter both
worlds.
An eldritch magic has awakened, turning the mortal world darker.
Colder. Famished. With flesh-eating monsters and a sinister curse
spreading like a plague, the last glimmer of humanity in Foxglove
Parish has long-since faded.
For Maevyth and Zevander, the only chance of escape is through The
Eating Woods. But fate has woven a new web, tangling the threads of
destiny, and crossing the mystical boundary to Aethyria might not be so
simple.
As the bones of Maevyth's past are unearthed, and truths unravel with
unsettling clarity, the possibility of never leaving Mortasia is
becoming more of a reality. Unfortunately for Zevander, time is running
out. The longer he stays in the mortal lands, deprived of essential
vivicantem, the more he succumbs to the encroaching specter of madness.
Or maybe those chasing shadows are someone hunting him. A wretched evil
closing in, threatening to pull him into the darkest corners of his
mind.
Only, this time, Maevyth may not have the power to save him.
Eldritch is a full-length, gothic dark fantasy, the second book in The
Eating Woods trilogy. Perfect for readers who enjoy a plot-heavy and
atmospheric story with a unique magic system, a slow-burn romance and a
touch of horror.
Five novellas based on Devin O'Branagan's bestselling novel, Witch
Hunt. The anthology begins with O'Branagan's own novella about the
Hawthorne matriarch, Vivian. She and her fellow British witches
work together to prevent a Nazi invasion during World War II. Then
there is Colonial maiden, Bridget, who struggles with the guilt of
failing her family in Salem, 1692. Her younger sister, Prissy,
mysteriously disappears and finds another magical world. Julia,
torn by family loyalties, love, and her spiritual quest, pays a
huge price to continue the bloodline. And Miranda uses her powers
against the great influenza outbreak of 1918 - but finds the
ultimate foe is prejudice against her kind. Discover what was left
out of Witch Hunt and revisit your favorite characters with these
exciting novellas. The story isn't done until the battle's lost and
won.
