Freebies!

The first 4 books in Shannon Mayer's Nix series are free today!!!

#1 Fury of a Phoenix
Spoiler:
"I knew the sins of my past would call to collect what was left of my soul. If I’d known the price I’d pay, I would’ve sacrificed more to stay hidden from the magic."

In the middle of Wyoming—away from the abnormals of the world—I thought I was free and clear. I started a new life. Found a love I’d never known in a husband, and a son who was my everything.

And in a blinding instant, that life was stolen from me.

The rage of a grieving mother is an ugly beast. More so when she has the skills and killer instinct to back up the wrath and the knowledge that an accident was anything but.

Once more, I will pick up my guns. This time to hunt those who took my husband’s and son’s lives.

Let them see the assassin, trained to kill abnormals, stalk the shadows again.

Let them see the Phoenix rise from the fragments of a broken life as she burns with a fury that cannot be contained.

Let the killing games begin.

#2 Blood of a Phoenix
Spoiler:
I thought that going after those who’d destroyed my life would help me move on. At the very least, that it would ease the thirst for vengeance singing in my blood. I was wrong.

With my guns at my side, I continue to search for ways to punish the one man who took everything from me. The man who killed my family. Death is far too good for him.

I want to make him suffer, to take from him everything he loves.

To that end, I need a code breaker, one who deals in magical glyphs. But in the hunt for her, I discover there are far more secrets to my life, and my blood, than I ever could have imagined.

Secrets that are burning their way out of the past and the shadows.

A promise dangled in front of me by the enemy of my enemy is too sweet to ignore. And I will cast all my cards on the table for the one chance that the promise he offers is true.

That my son is alive.

God help those who stand between my boy and me

#3 Rise of a Phoenix
Spoiler:
To save my son, I would give up my soul. To survive this journey and stop those who face us I may have to do just that.

My son is waiting for me to bring him home, to rescue him from the horrors he’s faced on his own. I won’t take the chance I will find him only to fail him again. Which means I must unearth a way to kill his captor, a man who is immortal. A man who made a deal with the devil to attain his power. As it stands there is only one way to end that monster’s life. A way that is far from simple.

With a pair of guns strapped to my hips, and an ally at my side, I will finally face down the evil that created me, crossing the world to do so.

I can feel death stalking us, waiting for us to slip up. But I am no stranger to death, and I will face him too if I must to save my boy.

To bring him home.

If you thought I was deadly before, it's nothing to what I will bring in this final round.

#4 A Savage Spell
Spoiler:
As the boogeyman to the underworld, Nix isn't afraid of dying.
Yet this time, it's not about dying. It's about escaping with her mind intact.

I thought I'd finally stepped away from the madness of the underworld, away from the Abnormals, away from all those who would do me and those I love harm.

The world though had different plans.

And now I'm trapped, not only physically, but inside my head.

Those who have me caged say none of it was real.
That I'm not a highly trained assassin of Abnormals.
That I have no family. My children do not exist.
That there is nothing supernatural about this world.

If they are right, then I've been crazy all along. I've been stuck inside of my head all these years, living a fantasy.
If they are right I am not the legendary Phoenix.

If they are wrong . . .then that means there is a new game afoot.

Then there will be hell to pay and the fires that burn within me will consume them all.




Book 5 - A Killing Curse, the series finale launches today and is in KU.
