The Third Age: Part Two - His Wonders to Perform...
San Francisco, 2015.
A group of friends celebrating a windfall in their musical careers take a wrong turn down a deserted alleyway to find their path blocked by two creatures out of nightmare. Surviving only through the arcane intervention of a cryptic savior, they find themselves thrust unwillingly into the center of a war of extermination between two mystical races.
Rory loved his best friend Takeshi for as long as he can remember, though he never had the courage to speak of it. When Rory is captured, his soul hangs in the balance as the Nightwalkers delve into ancient magic to corrupt his spirit. Takeshi attempts a desperate rescue, but is unprepared to face the enemy that waits in the depths of the vampire fortress. In the end, his own damnation may be the key to Rory's salvation.
The Third Age: Part Three - And Hell Followed With Him...
August 2034, Dublin, Ireland
For over four hundred years, Lorcan has privately mourned the loss of his human lover. Publicly, however, he has shed all trappings of his life as Ruarc, ruthlessly climbing the ranks of House Diluthical to achieve the rank of Consul, only a step below second-in-command. The rise of the Triumvirate in opposition to the Court of Shadows provided ample opportunities he has been able to turn to his advantage over the years.
Nicholas Jameson wants only to continue living his mortal life as a touring musician, before he was brutally drawn into the conflict between Luscian and the Triumvirate. Claiming his birthright after the Burning is a decision he immediately regrets, especially after the Court saddles him with a liaison officer, ostensibly to negotiate between House Luscian and the rest of the Court of Shadows: Lorcan Consul Diluthical.
Still, he’s just one little vampire. How much trouble can he be?
