Numb and depressed, Helena struggles just to get through her college courses. She didn't expect to fall in love with a gargoyle. When the stones begin to crumble and war bubbles out of Hell, she must make an impossible journey to save her friends. Sapphic Gargoyle Urban Fantasy #QuestPit #Q #YA #F

Moodboard for Rooted in Stone, sapphic Gargoyle YA Urban Fantasy-
A stone face with its mouth open, like a fountain. A crow surrounded by twinkling stars. A stone angel in an attitude of contemplation, as on a grave. A stone hallway, like in a cathedral, leading to a pretty window. Colorful twinkling pastel lights, out of focus.

Words written over a dark black background with a crow motif-
Rumors say that St. Romain’s is haunted. That suits lonely, troubled goth-girl Helena, perfectly fine. Right away she is fascinated by the eerie sculptures on the campus chapel. Wounded by past rejections, she is reluctant to open up to anyone. All she wants to do is fool her therapist long enough to not get kicked out of another school. When she develops a crush on the mysterious and beautiful Kia, Helena learns her secret… Kia is a gargoyle. The statues are not just stone, but powerful guardians of a rift between worlds. These uncanny guardians quickly find a friend in Helena, but she hides a dark power of her own.
When war spills through the rift, the stones of their beloved chapel begin to crumble and Helena is drawn into the battle to protect the world. Trapped in a strange, technicolor netherworld, our goth-girl heroine must face the darkness within or risk the collapse of both worlds and the destruction of her newfound family of stone… and Kia with them.

It's strange for a priceless artifact to sneak INTO a museum... When an Egyptian knife turns up at a prehistoric Native American site, Talia must turn to a man who betrayed her years ago to trace the source. As the case becomes deadly, who can she trust? #QuestPit #P #A #My ⛏️🎉OUT NOW!🥳🔪

Moodboard for the Gerzean Blade. Tagline “Bones she could handle. Flesh was another matter…
Images include crime scene tape, a library, a hand caressing Egyptian hieroglyphs, cuneform writing, a low shot of a long road, a hand sticking out of mud, an archeologist picking at a find in the ground, a broken car window.

(Over an image of a long road)
She used to dig up bones. Now she digs up secrets.
When an ancient Egyptian knife mysteriously ends up in a display case at a Native American archeological site in Illinois, Talia Griffin sees an opportunity. Armed with a master’s degree in anthropology, a little blue hatchback, a criminal record, and a broken heart, cynical Talia has debts to pay and an ambition to carve a niche for herself as a private investigator specializing in antiquities. Luckily, her former best friend, the bubbly, good-natured Brian, is obsessed with Egyptian history. Unluckily, she hates his guts.
Then her client is murdered.
Now Talia’s newest client, a smoking-hot lawyer with some mysterious antiquities of her own (and dibs on Talia’s heart), may have a target on her back as well… and so might Talia herself! As the web of secrets and lies grows more dangerous, she has to decide who she can trust and if the money is worth the risks. With Brian at her side, the two frenemies must find a way to work together before cash runs out and anyone else ends up dead.

(Over image of a broken car window)
At first, she took it to be a butcher knife by its size, but then, when he turned his wrist towards her throat, she saw its golden color, its rippled surface. It was stone.
“You’re Talia Griffin,” He growled through his teeth. It was daylight, rush-hour. Someone would surely see this, wouldn’t they? No one seemed to be there to play witness. Not a car drifted by on the quiet street. He’d gotten under her guard because of her blind dash, but seeing the knife cleared her mind and his lurching approach triggered an instant response. Likely not the one he expected…

Moodboard- The Gerzean Blade, "An Ancient City, a modern crime, a deadly game" Adult Soft-boiled mystery.
Images of a magnifying glass over an open book, a broken window, a stream of blood trickling down the side, an archeologist measuring a hole, hieroglyphs, a long road.

HEARTLESS HUNTER X SLAVIC FOURTH WING 🎭 She, a humble servant posing as Duchess, is his executioner-to-be. 🐉 He, the arrogant Dragon Prince, must save a kingdom from the encroaching Ever-Dark. 🖤 Neither anticipated falling for the one destined to be their undoing. #questpit #NA #R #F #DF #Q

A gothic-style book cover titled "Root and Ruin." Centered is a glowing, cyan-blue dragon coiled into a circle, its scales etched with faint, runic symbols. Golden, gnarled roots extend downward from the dragon like branching veins against the pitch-black background. Text at the top reads "Enemies to Lovers," "Fated Mates," and "Fake Identity," with "An Agent’s Guide" in the top right. Subtitle reads "80k • NA Slavic Romantasy," and the bottom logline says, "She is sent to kill the dragon. Instead, she might become his only salvation."

A graphic titled "The Comps" in golden lettering. It displays four book covers arranged in a grid: "Heartless Hunter" by Kristen Ciccarelli, "Fourth Wing" by Rebecca Yarros, "Shadow and Bone" by Leigh Bardugo, and "The Witcher: The Last Wish" by Andrzej Sapkowski.

A self-made fantasy illustration showing a halfway transformed, dark-haired man, Prince Konstantin Veliki, with a silver crown and dragon wings. He is carrying a woman, a humble servant Iva, masquerading as a Duchess Zora, in a long, flowing cream-colored gown as they fly through the air. She is his guest but unbeknownst to him, she is plotting to poison him. In the background, a sprawling forest surrounds a magic academy, Kolegium with colorful, traditional Slavic-style onion domes—gold, silver, bronze and green. Each of the domes represents air, water, fire and earth magic respectively. Snippet text at the bottom reads: "Do you always sequester your guests and take flight with them?"

A self-made illustration set in the catacombs under the magic academy, Kolegium, featuring classical-style statues on the walls. Iva, in dark armor, rides a bright, light blue-scaled dragon; it is Prince Konstantin Veliki in his dragon form.
They face off against a monstrous, ethereal shadow dragon composed of wispy, black smoke and glowing eyes — this is Konstantin’s fallen father Tibor Veliki. A brilliant golden sphere of light, relic of the Slavic god of light, Belobog, called Spark of Creation, floats on a pedestal between them. Text at the bottom of the snippet reads: "Let us dance, little one," the Shadow Dragon hisses in a dry whisper of the fallen. "A worthy foe," Konstantin responds. We take to the air to meet the darkness. Two gargantuan winged silhouettes hover in the abyss, suspended in a precarious balance. They mirror one another; two sides of the same coin, champions of Belobog and Chernobog.

Poster-style graphic with a black background and heavy red blood splatter. Large distressed white and red text reads “DAD BODIES.” A dagger runs horizontally through the letters, and a 20-sided die showing low numbers appears on the right. Along the bottom are black silhouettes of heads with X-shaped eyes. Beneath, smaller text reads “ROLL FOR FUCKERY,” and at the bottom: “A co(s)mic horror novel by B. van Bodegom.”
