  Demeter just wants to do her job: shuttling humans between Earth and Alpha Centauri. Unfortunately, her passengers keep dying—and not from equipment failures, as her AI medical system, Steward, would have her believe. These are paranormal murders, and they began when one nasty, ancient vampire decided to board Demeter and kill all her humans. To keep from getting decommissioned, Demeter must join forces with her own team of monsters: A werewolf. An engineer built from the dead. A pharaoh with otherworldly powers. A vampire with a grudge. A fleet of cheerful spider drones.

  Crying Wolf May 3, 2021

  The path to freedom wasn't supposed to include falling in love. Identical twins Ali and Amir are in serious trouble. They've been imprisoned, accused of a crime that only one of them committed. As they await trial, they must learn to survive as inmates in a prison filled with sadistic guards-and werewolves. Good thing they're werewolves too. Ali has no idea how to survive in this brutal world. It's almost a relief when the cellblock alpha, Morgan, takes a liking to him and helps him adapt to prison life.
