Veronica stalked the streets of Prague, 
a killer of evil men.

When the gargoyle community sentenced her to death for the crime of being too human, she escaped into the world with her quarter-sister, Maeve. Now, pursued by the wizards who are enslaving their people, the two women are on an adventure across Canada, meeting monsters and finding allies to help in the oncoming magical war of evil versus evil.

The Story So Far:

Run Baby Run

Veronica and Maeve have grown up in an underground sect of gargoyles deep in the Czech Republic, cowering within a remote mountain and living in fear of the mages who created their race.

But Veronica longs for the outside world, and feels out of place in the only home she’s ever known. However, leaving a cult can be very dangerous, especially when you’re a gargoyle!

Bad Reputation

Veronica and Maeve have fled their home in the Czech Republic, travelling secretly across Europe to London.

Suddenly ripped from her insular gargoyle society, Maeve has been learning about the human world thanks to her more-experienced best friend–but where has Veronica gotten that experience? What has she been doing among humanity for the past twelve years?

And just what else is she capable of?

Connection

During their escape and subsequent three-month flight across Europe, the girls have wondered: what is the purpose behind the mages’ enslavement of their people? Have their adversaries noticed their absence?

Are they being hunted?

Spiderwebs

Armed with the ability to pass as human—for one hour per day—and the resolve to find allies to help free their people, Veronica and Maeve are travelling across Canada, meeting people.

And creatures. And people who are also creatures.

No Roots

The girls are living life on the road, looking for help in their quest and avoiding capture by Azrael and her faction of magic-wielding zealots. But the sisters have been warned that there’s other players in the game, too. And they’re done hiding.

Not that I don’t enjoy the Wizard Detective urban-fantasy subgenre because I do quite a bit.

I mean, Dresden Files obviously, it’s the gold standard. But I also enjoyed Alex Verus (wizard, not a detective) and Daniel Faust/Harmony Black (wizard, active criminal and witch, FBI agent, respectively) and currently I’m on Rivers of London (police constable, wizarding apprentice). Eric Carter (necromancer, fix-it man) was okay but a touch grim and I don’t know if I’ll continue after the ninth book. Nine’s probably enough to go on, right?

Anyway, urban fantasy. I’m into it. Obviously.

High fantasy has so much lore. I like magic and monsters but I don’t really want to hear about continents and geopolitical systems and anthropological histories. Plunk your monsters down into present-day Earth where we already know how things work!

Anyway here’s a new page where I haven’t explained who this is or how any of this works.
