Ex-cop turned private investigator Robert Hoskins always enjoyed the stories his grandmother had told him as a child, stories of the Dryad that lived in the tree, the Faeries in the garden, and the magical world that was created in his imagination. He always enjoyed them; he just never thought that they were true. Robert's childhood world of magic becomes real when a chance encounter with a local casino mob boss introduces him to the world he was born into, the world that was hidden from him, the world of the Fae.

You see plenty of strange things when you're a PI in Las Vegas, but even that couldn't prepare ex-cop Robert Hoskins for what was to come.

Elves, dwarves, werewolves and faeries were just the beginning and battling dark mages, the opening act.

It's good to be a god! Unless, of course, you're the god of Hades. It's not exactly known to be the garden spot of the universe.

If that's not enough to ruin his day, Robert suddenly finds himself embroiled in a desperate search for an ancient talisman. One that could save, or doom, Diantha - the Oracle of Delphi and Robert’s on-again-off-again girlfriend.

There are wars to be waged and enemies galore as an ancient prophesy resurfaces and the universe attempts to seek balance.

Ex-cop and PI Robert Hoskins knows some cases are tougher than others, especially when dark magic is involved. A call from the local pack master about some missing weres is more than it seems. Portals to the underworld have opened, and ancient creatures long thought dead have returned. As a fae, Robert's faced off with demons before but always as the hunter, never the prey. What magic force has opened the portals, and why is it travelling through the hells of the underworld releasing demons in its wake? Robert needs old friends and new allies to find out.

As an ex-cop and PI, Robert Hoskins thought he'd seen it all. Then, while working a simple case, his world changed. The next thing he knew, he was battling wizards, demons, and even the occasional dragon.

What do Jay Hoskins, Jasmine (Jazzy) Chibeaux, and Jesse Ordunez have in common? They're all agents of the External Affairs Bureau. On the surface, their mission is simple. Hunt Demons and creatures that threaten the humans. But not every Demon or Vampire is a threat, and they'll have to weave their way through the hidden society that most humans never see. When a simple burglary leads them to a powerful Witch and a Duke of Hell, they realize they're on to something big. A long-lost Grimoire might be the catalyst that starts the Apocalypse, and unfortunately, it's already in her hands.

The first Thanksgiving at Plymouth in 1621 was a powerfully symbolic event and not merely the pageant of abundance that we still reenact today. In these early encounters between Indians and English in North America, food was also symbolic of power: The venison brought to Plymouth by the Indians, for example, was resonant of both masculine skill with weapons and the status of the men who offered it. These meanings were clearly understood by Plymouth's leaders, however weak they appeared in comparison.

It's good to be a God...until you're not. Robert Hoskins was once a High Fae and the God of Hades. But now he's human again, having been stripped of his powers by the Goddess Gaea and sent to an alternative Las Vegas where the Fae rule with an iron fist and magic is the law of the land.

Working as a cop in this Sin City isn't easy, especially when you've lost your powers.

If he can't find out why Gaea sent him here, he could be trapped forever in a place where he's mortal.
