Gods, monsters, and magic make and break the rules in the young adult fantasy Dreams of Chaos series


Hidden away by her father in Aevum, a world at odds with magic, teen demi-goddess Trotter tries hard to live among the humans. Unfortunately, leaky magic and a premature smiting problem keep affirming that a normal life just isn't in her cards. Really, when the earthquakes started and the world began to vanish, it wasn't that surprising when everyone blamed her for the coming apocalypse.

Trotter's fight to prove her innocence leads her to a mysterious little girl named Alice who has been unknowingly tapping into new powers and changing the world around her to match her childish fantasies, causing mayhem in the rest of Aevum. The destruction captures the attention of the very people from whom Trotter's parents hid her, igniting a long-awaited war in the home of the gods.

Now, with everyone against her and the gods fighting among themselves, Trotter is on her own to stop a vengeful god from using Alice to destroy her world.
