"Happily ever after isn't all that magical . . .
With Hell's chasm closed and magic sealed away, Orpheus and Fenrir find themselves at the center of the Empire's reconstruction. But when mysterious assailants kidnap Orpheus to a city once powered by the chasm he closed—the redeemed villain discovers all magic may not be lost . . . only his.
Presented with a choice: Fix the city or die, Orpheus comes face-to-face with a young mage named Gwen whose magic is too weak to cast a spell, let alone help the broken city. Enamored by the former dark sorcerer, Gwen offers to help keep Orpheus' missing powers a secret in exchange for magical tutelage, buying Orpheus the time he needs for Fenrir to come to his rescue.
But when weeks pass without Fenrir's arrival while Gwen only grows stronger, Orpheus looks to his unlikely student and wonders . . .
Is there a way to steal Gwen's magic and save himself?
The City that Shattered the World is the epic second book in the LGBTQ+ romantic fantasy series, the Cursed Mage. Fans of Critical Role and Arcane will be swept away by Fiona Fenn's emotional, character-driven story, where morally gray villains fight to earn their redemption."
"He accidentally cursed himself . . .
When the consequences get him exiled to the land he helped terrorize, can this evil wizard find redemption . . . and love?
Orpheus can't believe it's come to this. After helping his childhood friend conquer the realm by raising an army of hell-beasts, the befuddled dark sorcerer finds himself banished when the price of his magic endangers the palace. Isolated and betrayed, the feared spellcaster isn't exactly thrilled when his irritating and handsome rival keeps stepping between him and certain doom.
Ill at ease in the barren wasteland his powers created, Orpheus slowly warms to the charismatic ex-general's relentless overtures. But as his feelings grow more intense, the former villain struggles with an inconvenient calling towards heroism.
Will dabbling in good deeds get him killed or open the doors to happily ever after?
The Crack at the Heart of Everything is the charmingly swoon-worthy first book in an epic LGBTQ+ fantasy series. If you like character-driven stories, snarky humor, and well-earned redemption arcs, then you'll adore Fiona Fenn's unexpected hero's journey."
