Conan: Spawn of the Serpent God

Coming Oct. 28, 2025.

In Zamora, the city of thieves, Conan meets Valja, a thrill-seeking thief. She entices him to join her on a heist, where they steal a golden statuette of Ishtar, said to contain the goddess herself. After killing a dozen guards and failing to escape, the pair are saved by priestesses of Mitra. But Conan knows that nothing is free.

The priestesses have need of their skills. They have waged war against Set, god of chaos and serpents, who demands constant sacrifice from his subjects and massacred thousands of his followers. Yet they are no match for Uzzeran, a powerful sorcerer, who has been performing unspeakable experiments on humans in the name of Set. To defeat Uzzeran, they will need a legendary warrior on their side. They need Conan the Barbarian.

The Desolation War

Custodians of the Cosmos: Book 3

The thrilling conclusion to The Custodians of the Cosmos trilogy!

Rachel Blackburn is back, and she’s more powerful – and terrifying – than ever.

She’s now one of the Lightbringers, an ancient race of cosmic beings dedicated to “saving” the Omniverse from the ravenous Gyre by absorbing it into themselves piece by piece.

But Rachel doesn’t give a damn about the Lightbringers’ mission.

She intends to use her new powers to get revenge on the two Maintenance agents who stopped her from activating the Atrocity Engine – Neal Hudson and Gina Sandoval. And when she’s finished with them, she’s going to destroy Brother Nothing and the entire Multitude.

To complicate matters further, Neil and Gina find themselves trapped on a devastated parallel Earth overrun with Aberrants – and where a Kaiju-sized version of Teguzilla lives.

If they don’t find a way to win this war, they won’t have a home to return to.

Time to roll up their sleeves and get to work . . . one last time.

X: The Official Novelization

When screams of X-tasy turn into cries for help!

In 1979, a group of young filmmakers set out to make an adult film in rural Texas. But when their reclusive, elderly hosts catch them in the act, the cast find themselves fighting for their lives…

Written by four-time Bram Stoker Award-winning writer Tim Waggoner, this thrilling novelization is printed in throwback pocket-sized paperback format, bringing beloved scream queens Pearl and Maxine to a new medium. Relive the tragedy that befell Lorraine, Bobby-Lynne, Jackson, Wayne, RJ, and Howard with grisly new details drawn from West’s original screenplay.

As Sheriff Dentler would say: it’s one goddamn fucked up horror story.
