The Convention of Fiends, Book 2:

You Were Warned

Cover art by Don Aguillo

Magdalena Wallace is back! The world’s greatest writer survived the novel designed to kill readers, and now she needs to save humanity … and all the monsters, too. In addition to her delightful non-binary golem friend, the compulsively foul-mouthed King of Trolls, and the fan favorite lesbian vampire, this adventure has baby werewolves!  Maybe a dragon? Certainly a lot of social commentary and existential dread. A moderate amount of dismemberments and exsanguinations. And jokes!

“Be warned: This book is packed with monsters, comedy, action, romance, and adorable werewolf pups!” 

-Karen Eisenbrey, author of Ego & Endurance, the Daughter of Magic series, and the St. Rage duology


“It’s action-packed, filled with fantastic creatures, hilarious, and sharp. We meet so many characters and return to an awesome one who is at the intersection of identities and, honestly, an inspiration.”

-Zaji Cox, author of Plums for Months: Memories of a wonder-filled, neurodivergent childhood



“Benjamin Gorman is at least three goblins in a trench coat. …There is no other logical explanation.” 

-Maren Anderson, author of Sparks, who is at least three winged unicorns in an off-the-shoulder, A-line dress
