Nysera: The Goddess of Secrets Long before the heavens were divided by war, the gods ruled openly, and every ten thousand years they fought in the Ranking of the Gods—a divine contest where victors gained territories, worshippers, and unimaginable power, while the defeated lost everything... even their names. Born from a forbidden affair between the ambitious High Goddess of Radiance and a fallen, rankless god, Nysera should never have existed. Abandoned at birth. Sold for sacrifice by her own father. Raised in the temple of Malzareth, the High God of Corruption, she spends seven thousand years as nothing more than a nameless servant, enduring cruel experiments, torture, and humiliation. Her only comfort comes from the forgotten creatures she secretly rescues—an abandoned shadow hound and a wounded crow. Everything changes when a whispered secret awakens the power sleeping within her soul. Her true Divine Authority is unlike any the heavens have ever known. Every truth she hears grants her fragments of memories, forgotten skills, hidden emotions, and glimpses of fate itself. To the oldest gods, it is a power erased from history... a Forbidden Authority. As Nysera uncovers its Seven Seals, ancient beings begin to stir beneath the foundations of heaven, while the gods who abandoned her unknowingly awaken the greatest threat their world has ever feared. In a world where power is bought with betrayal and the innocent are sacrificed for ambition, Nysera swears one unbreakable law: "The innocent deserve shelter and the truth. The wicked deserve punishment." To keep that promise, she must climb the Ranking of the Gods, uncover the oldest secret in creation, and become the one goddess the heavens were never meant to remember.

Caelith has nothing worth taking. No power. No secrets. Nothing anyone could possibly want. So why is everyone coming for her? Twenty one years old, literature student, part time bookshop worker. Her life is unremarkable by every measurement that matters. Until a ritual group kidnaps her, a trained assassin is sent to finish the job, and something ancient and patient decides she is exactly who it has been looking for. There is a journal. Older than recorded history. Wanted by everyone and understood by no one. And Caelith is the key to finding it. Even though nobody asked her. Now she is navigating a world she was never supposed to know existed. With a former assassin bound to her by a blood deal. A best friend who doesn't remember the night that changed everything. A boy who has known something was different about her since day one and chose to stay anyway. And a stranger who saved her life and disappeared before she could get a single answer out of him. The deeper she goes the bigger it gets. And she is only just beginning. Some journals don't record history. They create it.

Twenty-five nightmares feeding the hunger lurking between the bricks and waiting beneath the boards. The sequel to Eidolon Avenue: The First Feast (“a great read...powerful and jarring” - Cemetery Dance) returns to the voracious Eidolon as it savors The Second Feast.

A woman in 2B, reinventing herself to please a callous boyfriend, discovers the horrors that wait in the shadows of her self-renovation. The man in 2C, a teacher at the nearby Catholic girl’s school, collapses beneath the brutal consequences of his lecherous desires. An older woman in 2D, after decades dedicated to the church, is cornered at last by the grisly carnage beating at the hollow center of her faith. And a college student in 2E, hungry to escape an ignored life of invisible anonymity, finds herself captured between the pages of a ravenous book. All thrown into their own private hell as every cruel choice, every drop of spilled blood, every silent, complicit moment of cowardice is remembered, resurrected and relived to feed the ancient evil that lives on Eidolon Avenue. ©️ Crystal Lake Publishing
