Kayla’s Hades: A Gripping Fantasy Adventure of Survival and Redemption When Kayla awakens in the smoldering depths of Hades, her memories are wiped clean, leaving her with nothing but confusion and an unshakable determination to survive. With the underworld's infernal flames at her back and treachery at every turn, Kayla vows to escape this perilous realm and uncover the truth of who she really is. Each step in Hades tests her resolve as she battles monstrous foes, navigates a labyrinth of lies, and grapples with one haunting question: Who can I trust in this forsaken world? Strangers offer help, but their motives remain murky. Are they allies seeking mutual salvation or enemies luring her deeper into the clutches of eternal damnation? In a place where every choice carries the weight of life and death, Kayla must balance her survival instincts with the flickering hope of redemption.

Perfect for fans of heart-pounding action, twisting mysteries, and stories of unbreakable will, this series takes you on a journey through the dark heart of the underworld and beyond.

The Eighth Pawn: Ochelon, Revive (Book 1)
by Mary A. Odekunle
Published 2025
0/5
Power is never given. It is taken, one move at a time. Betrayed. Cornered. Hunted. Tez’ Mu has two choices: move or be removed. In a kingdom where bloodlines dictate loyalty and power is a game of poisoned daggers, Tez’ Mu is trapped between duty and survival. In Ochelon, power is a blade, and he is running out of time to claim one. Sent to broker peace, he instead walks into a war of shifting alliances and deadly secrets. But if he plays his hand right, he won’t just survive—he’ll rewrite the game itself. The Eighth Pawn is a political fantasy epic blending military intrigue with family-driven treachery and relentless pacing. A gripping tale of political intrigue, deception, and a reluctant hero caught in the storm of a dying empire. Perfect for fans of slow-burn strategy, high-stakes manipulation, and the kind of power plays that leave kingdoms in ruins. In a world of kings and warlords, one pawn dares to play. Not all wars are fought with swords. Some are won with whispers.
