Update on what’s new and coming soon:

Fun Porch Reads for a Stay-at-Home Summer

Our summer plans may not exactly be unfolding the way we had expected, but a stack of books to be read is always your best friend!

Ghosts of the Past is the third Wasteland Marshals novella, coming soon from Falstaff Books. Shane Collins and Lucas Maddox head for the mountains of West Virginia, where they’ll deal with roadside attractions leveraging major mojo, scholars trying to save essential archives, a werewolf that likes to play Frisbee, creepy cultists, grim ghosts, a snarly yow, and Schröedinger’s hotel (sometimes it’s there, sometimes it isn’t.)

The new anthology Witches, Warriors, & Wise Women (Prospective Press) has a Deadly Curiosities original story—“Heap of Trouble.” A woman Cassidy has never heard of wills her house to Trifles and Folly. Cassidy doesn’t know why—but she is pretty certain trouble is on the way. You can find it on Amazon Here

We’re working on the next (sixth) Spells, Salt, & Steel book, and Gail is still working on Reckoning, a Darkhurst novel, the third and final book in that series.

Balticon and ConCarolinas may have cancelled their in-person events, but Larry and I have been busy on Zoom panels bringing all kinds of convention shenanigans your way! So watch those web sites and Facebook/YouTube pages to see all the fun stuff!

Gail is one of the con-runners for ConTinual—the ongoing, online multi-genre convention that never ends. That’s kept us both plenty busy recording panels and doing interviews with other authors.  Here are just a few to get you started!

Welcome to the 2019 Hawthorn Moon Blog Tour

If you’re looking for some summer reading, you’ve come to the right place! My Hawthorn Moon blog tour is a great time to catch up on the latest titles, find out what’s coming soon, and get a behind-the-scenes peak at the characters and the series. Come check out what’s new and have a look at the coming attractions!

The Splintered Crown is the first in a brand new series by Larry N. Martin. Come along for the adventure as a group of down-at-the-heels friends are sent by a demigoddess on a dangerous quest in hopes of making their fortune and being able to escape the hardships of their lives in the city.  If you love portal fantasy and quest adventures, this is a perfect summer read!

Convicts & Exiles is the prequel to Ice Forged in the Ascendant Kingdoms Saga, and is the final work planned for this post-apocalyptic medieval epic fantasy series. This book fills in the six year ‘gap’ at the beginning of Ice Forged, telling the story of Blaine McFadden’s years in Velant Prison and as a colonist on Edgeland, and shows how he and his friends—Kestel, Piran, Verran and Dawe—came together as found family to save the kingdom.

Then there’s our newest audiobook, Spells Salt and Steel: Season One. Catch the adventures of snarky monster hunter Mark Wojcik as he battles monsters, vengeful ghosts and creepy cryptids. He’s got a grenade launcher full of salted holy water, and he’s not afraid to use it!

We’ve also got Deadly Curiosities stories in two new anthologies—Release the Virgins, published by Fantastic Books, and Tales from the Old Black Ambulance, from Prospective Press.

Follow the Hawthorn Moon blog tour guest posts for all the hottest scoop! You can find the inside intel and a tour-exclusive giveaway at these host blogs:

Happy Thanksgiving! New Books and Free Stories

Hey everyone! Happy Thanksgiving!

I’m thankful for books, authors and readers. Books have gotten me through dark places, taught me about the world, shaped my perspectives, and given me forever fictional friends. Most of my social circle now consists of other authors, and I am so grateful for their friendship and guidance. And of course, I’m thankful for readers because you make all the books possible!

There’s lot of new stuff, just in time for the holidays, and perfect for cozying up with a good book!

Sons of Darkness, my new urban fantasy, is now available in ebook and print! Demon-hunting former priest Travis Dominick works with the misfit psychics of the Night Vigil to fight supernatural creatures and malicious paranormal activity. When a series of disappearances, suicides and vengeful spirits cause havoc and death along a remote interstate highway, Travis teams up with former special ops soldier and monster-hunter Brent Lawson to end the problem with extreme prejudice. Check out all the cool blog posts and interviews, plus giveaway on the book tour!

Assassin’s Honor is now available in audio, as well as ebook and print! Imagine Butch and Sundance as medieval assassins…. Joel Breckenridge and Garrett Kennard are King’s Shadows, elite assassins serving the crown of Landria. When a shadowy itinerant holy man starts captivates the nobility with treasonous whispers, Ridge and Rett go rogue to stop the threat, save the kingdom and protect the king–while landing on the ‘Most Wanted’ list themselves? Look for a new virtual book tour with reviews, giveaways and exclusive content starting Nov. 26!

What’s new with Morgan Brice!

Lucky Town, the new Christmas Badlands novella, is perfect for the holidays! Psychic medium Simon Kincaide and his boyfriend, Myrtle Beach homicide detective Vic D’Amato, find that the only thing more frightening than murder might be navigating their first holiday season as a couple. 

A trip back to Pittsburgh to spend Thanksgiving with Vic’s large, exuberant family means dodging old frenemies and a bitter ex-boyfriend. A cold case comes back to haunt Vic when the murdered man’s ghost begs Simon for justice. Then a new murder back in Myrtle Beach looks suspiciously familiar, and the dead woman’s ghost isn’t playing nice. When Simon gets a vision of the next victim before the crime occurs, he realizes that all the murders are supernaturally linked. Catching the murderer will take his psychic sleuthing skills along with Vic’s street smarts to avert a tragedy. Can they do right by ghosts past, present and yet-to-come without ending up in the crosshairs of a killer for Christmas?  Lucky Town is now available in ebook and print.

Audio, coming soon! I’ve just done a contract with Tantor audio to have Witchbane, Burn, Dark Rivers, Badlands, Lucky Town and the upcoming novel The Rising done in audiobook, narrated by the talented Kale Williams! Stay tuned to find out when the audiobooks will go live!
