The Southern Arcana books are novel-length paranormal romance set in a contemporary world where shapeshifters, psychics and spellcasters of all sorts live secret lives beneath the radar. The paranormal world of Southern Arcana is not always a pretty place, so books contain their share of violence and death, but if you make it through to the other side you'll always find a happy ending.

The books are published through Samhain publishing, which means they're released first as ebooks and then ten months later in print editions. Samhain ebooks are multi-format and can be purchased at multiple places without DRM, so you never have to worry about losing your copy!

For there was one thing the werewolves couldn't fight: change. The wizards adapted and grew stronger as the wilderness shrank, and the New World became a beacon of hope for werewolves tired of watching their backs. But the New World was not a good place to hide from change...

One by one the old traditions died. As cities grew, the alphas who took control became less concerned with protection and more concerned with power. Those who followed the old ways retreated to the mountains and plains, to the remotest areas of a country growing less remote every year. Those left behind in the cities suffered under the cruel tyranny of alphas who took what they wanted and killed any who stood in their way. The only way to stay safe was to find a Sanctuary Town and beg the protection of the alpha.

Long before the rest of the world caught on to the fact that there were, indeed, creatures and beings beyond their comprehension, the citizens of Mystic Ridge, Texas, knew about them. They'd been sharing their small border town with supernaturals for a hundred years.

Mystic Ridge is nice enough, if you stay inside the town limits. If you cross the bridge over the Rio de Lobos and head down into Mystic Valley.... Well, that's a whole different story. The once-upscale suburb has been given over to the paranormal. Shapeshifters, wizards, witches, psychics, vampires... The Valley belongs to them. Any human who goes there, especially after dark, probably won't come back. And no one will go in after you.

War on Earth ended fifty years ago with the Sickness, a nanite plague that killed without prejudice and set the human race back two hundred years. The only ones immune to the Sickness are the werewolves, who have been forced out of hiding in the aftermath. Now human and werewolf must form an uneasy alliance and find a way to rebuild a new world.

Werewolves and humans have been at war for more generations than either can remember. The only way for werewolves to withstand the superior technology of the humans is by making themselves the ultimate warriors.

Every able werewolf spends the years from twenty to forty serving his king on the front lines, but constant battle takes its toll on man and beast alike. The only way to recover ones balance is by visiting the Temple of Luna, where the strongest and brightest women serve their goddess by gentling warriors--by any means necessary.
