The Questing Stones have come to Nowherested, and Evelia Greene is finally ready to receive her life's quest. Perhaps she'll be a great warrior, or a wealthy merchant, or a brilliant mage. Perhaps her quest is simply to live a quiet life, constantly honing a craft to the heights of perfection. Or perhaps the Questing Stones will grant her the legendary mission of popping over to the next village to pick up a loaf of bread.

Jig the goblin was the runtiest member of an admittedly puny race. Jig was scrawny, so nearsighted as to be almost blind, and had such a poor self-image that when he chose a god to worship, it was one of the forgotten ones - after all, what other sort of god would have him as worshiper? He also had a cowardly fire-spider for a pet, a creature that was likely to set your hair on fire if it got into a panic. Made to stand tunnel watch by the goblin bullies who'd been assigned the job, it was just Jig's luck to be taken captive by a group of adventurers.

Growing up in Boston, Chloe Mayfield has always felt a special affinity for the ocean. The salt-filled breezes, fresh lobster from the bay, and familiar songs of the sailors maneuvering their ships in and out of the harbor are just a few of the things she loves. Dead knights washing up on the shoreline? Not so much. When a figure dressed like he’s from Arthurian England winds up in the city morgue, Chloe sets out to investigate. Soon she hears rumors telling of a very special sword reported to be in the city. The mighty Excalibur has reached New England.

King Arthur's sitting on the British throne, but not everyone's buying the whole “Once and Future King" schtick. Apparently, what he needs to shut up the doubters is the Dark Blade. You know, the one. Massive sword which is oddly stuck in a rock, guarded by a soggy woman handing out weaponry like it’s the prize in a raffle. (Seriously, who came up with this system?)

What could be better than seeing a family member? How about an old dear friend who has been looking for you? Waldo and Alice might have different opinions on that. But when old familiar faces come calling sometimes a reunion just isn't avoidable.

Mark and Denise just want a little time off for a honeymoon. Wouldn't you know that's too much to ask? Denise's mother has a little project she needs their help with.

After bringing a bloodhungry demon back to Valen, Breed's life is saved by a prince of the Midnight Court. But all is not well in the greatest city in the Empire. Revolution is in the air, gangs are fighting for supremacy, and plague is spreading. Armed with little more than a kitchen knife and a bad attitude, Breed must fight for a place in the Midnight Court and wreak revenge on Duke Leopold and the creature wearing Mother Blake's skin. Where There's a Blade is the sixth and final audiobook in The Chronicles of Breed.

The Headless Horseman. Everyone knows the legend. That’s all it is, right? When a third headless victim is found on Boston’s streets, Chloe Mayfield is tasked with finding the person behind the crime spree – no one else wants a case this weird. It would be easy to dismiss the murders as nothing more than the random acts of a madman with a cosplay fetish, but when her investigations lead her to the morgue, she comes face to face with an apparition she cannot explain.

Thieves have broken into the Federal Reserve and made off with millions in gold. The catch? They were dressed like leprechauns, and by all accounts, used magic to do it. Cue up a fresh case for Sergeant Chloe Mayfield, but if she thought the last one was fraught with danger, she’s going to have to redefine her terminology. If it were not bad enough that she has to negotiate rogue gunmen, sword-wielding mercenaries, and a famous monster hunter, she has enemies within Boston PD to contend with, at least one of whom thinks their life would be easier if she were dead.

The Sisters of Salem are in disarray, their coven leader murdered and left to be found. The case has already been closed; the death attributed to the headless horseman’s reign of terror. But was he really to blame? Sergeant Chloe Mayfield doesn’t think so, but her one cop mission to find the real killer clashes with her orders and she’s already on shaky ground with the higher-ups. All they need is one good reason and she’s out of a job. Nevertheless, she feels responsible–Chloe should have spotted the clues and been able to prevent the coven leader’s death. Shouldn’t she?
