    Summary

    Steve Harrington goes from living at the Catholic orphanage where his parents dumped him after his father’s business failed during the early years of the Great Depression, to essentially indentured to wealthy—and shady—businessman, Henry Creel. There, he works in The Rose Room, a ballroom where pretty omegas sell their companionship for ten cents a dance.

    Business is booming, and Creel decides to upgrade from a gramophone to a live band which brings Eddie Munson back into Steve’s orbit. All the while, Creel leers after his young ward, slowly crossing line after line.

    To cope, Steve escapes into his imagination, placing himself in fairy tale fantasies where the brave omega is saved by a noble and good alpha, a certain Sir Edward…

    Fortunately, in the real world, his Eddie is just as ready to rescue him.

    Summary

    In the era of Depression and Prohibition, no good deed goes unpunished.

    It is the year 1930. As the economy continues on its seemingly never-ending nosedive, and the government continues to drag its heels trying and failing to enforce Prohibition, two young women do their best to survive in Los Angeles: where crime runs rampant and booze flows like liquid gold.

    With the right skills, bonds, connections, and a healthy smattering of luck, they may just be able to pull through one the most difficult times in modern American history.

    Summary

    For every trial, for every task,

    there is a corresponding mask.

    A frown, a smirk, a pout, a grin,

    They shield the soul contained therein.

    But masks and faces, and manners too,

    disguise the single face that’s true.

    The face that’s under the facade,

    the one the foolish, charmed and awed,

    profess to see, to claim to know,

    although they’ve never seen it show.

    And so they pry through charm and guile,

    in hopes to see what’s ‘neath that smile.

    However, they are unaware,

    that mask and face are not a pair.

    For those that pry soon come to find

    they don’t like what’s hiding behind,

    because the face once locked within,

    might not be that charming grin.

    And thus the wise are dread to ask

    to see what’s there beneath the mask.

    Summary

    Set against the backdrop of Depression-era Los Angeles, False Prophet traces the rise and fall of Vincent Orion Xavier, a poor boy who becomes America’s first televangelist. From the smoky sermons of a flashy pastor in the 1930s to the glittering stage lights of nationwide television in the 1950s, Vincent builds a kingdom of faith, fear, and fortune—manipulating wars, politics, and entire congregations in his pursuit of power. But his empire, built on hypocrisy and greed, collapses in a fiery instant, sending him not to heaven, but to Hell itself—where he is reborn as Vox, a literal television-headed demon destined to broadcast damnation forever.

    Summary

    Porky Pig has only been focused on two things: his family and their Kansas farm. Timid, standoffish, a bit awkward, he’s made a point to keep to himself and has no intentions of doing otherwise.

    So, when family friend and dressmaker Petunia Pig urges him to come to her Hollywood home on urgent business, only to trick him into auditioning for a role at her workplace of the Warner Bros. studio, it comes as a major and unwilling change. Unable to see the potential Petunia and his superiors see in him, Porky feels like his career as an actor in mid-1930’s Hollywood is a big elaborate joke and a series of walking into walls. It wouldn’t be until a wall came crashing down that he realized his true calling—all thanks to a certain crazy, darn fool, little black duck.

    Summary

    Evelyn Lamour, professional lawyer and millennia-old demon, has carved out a comfortable life for herself on Earth. Her daily routine is interrupted, however, by the sudden appearance of another ancient celestial, one that's been cast out of Heaven for their transgressions. As sole witness to this incident, Evelyn is forced to decide for herself the fate of this other being, whose life now rests in her hands.

    This incident brings back memories of her own arrival on Earth decades earlier. Cast out of Hell, stripped of her abilities, Evelyn was happened upon by a kindly stranger who offered her shelter. Forced to hide among the poorest of the City, Evelyn finds herself powerless for the first time in her life, unsure what lies in her future.

    Despite being one of the most powerful demons of Hell, is Evelyn capable of choosing a new life for herself? Is she a kindly stranger who helps those in need, or a malevolent demon who exists only to sow discord and misery?

    Summary

    In 1901, Henry arrives in New York hungry—for a new life, for escape, for something he can’t name. He finds it in Alex, a sharp-eyed, sharp-tongued vampire who already knows how to survive the century ahead. What starts as wary companionship becomes something messier, deeper, and far harder to let go of.

    Over the decades, they orbit each other—sometimes close enough to touch, sometimes worlds apart. Cities change. People fade. But desire lingers. Love, if that’s what it is, doesn’t die easily.

    Summary

    "That tune,” he rasped,” where’s it from?”
    He’d look back later, on that very moment. A question not quite out of the ordinary, that would lead him to a most unordinary mystery. A mystery that would eventually, as it had to so many before him, be his demise.
    "This tune?”, the man laughed, rotten teeth showing through his toothy grin, "You tellin’ me ya never heard of the house down in New Orleans?”
    He leaned forward, shaking his head for a no.
    "Well I’ll tell ya, I’ll tell ya alright. S’called the House of the Rising Sun. Now then son, just what is it that ya wanna know?”

    ***

    Just who were the men and women of the House of the Rising Sun? (Some supposed it's only the devil that know)
