Soul Eater
by Lily Mayne
read by Michael Lesley
Part 1 of the Monstrous series
Twenty years ago, monsters rose on earth and began a new age of civilization.
One where humans live in military-controlled, cramped and dirty cities along the coasts, and the majority of the United States is known as the Wastes. A lawless, desolate and dangerous place, teeming with monsters that have claimed the land for their own.
Including Wyn the Soul Eater.
He appears every three years, making his way across the country and slaughtering humans randomly, sucking them dry until they're nothing but husks.
I've only been in the military for six months, but now I'm part of a unit tasked with trying to stop and capture him. And when I'm the only soldier out of hundreds that the Soul Eater leaves alive, I realise that something about me has intrigued him.
But what is it? What could a twenty-three-year-old guy from the south, with no one and nothing in the world, have possibly done to capture the attention of a death monster with horns, blackened fingertips and a face hidden in the dark depths of his hood?
Soul Eater is book one of Monstrous, a post-apocalyptic fantasy series featuring monsters and human men falling in love. It is a m/m love story and contains sexually explicit content and graphic depictions of torture and violence.

Monstrous
by Mary Kate Connolly
read by Brittany Pressley
Part 1 of the Monstrous series
The city of Bryre suffers under the magic of an evil wizard. Because of his curse, girls sicken and disappear without a trace, and Bryre's inhabitants live in fear. No one is allowed outside after dark. Yet night is the only time that Kymera can enter this dangerous city, for she must not be seen by humans. Her father says they would not understand her wings, the bolts in her neck, or her spiky tail-they would kill her. They would not understand that she was created for a purpose: to rescue the girls of Bryre. Despite her caution, a boy named Ren sees Kym and begins to leave a perfect red rose for her every evening. As they become friends, Kym learns that Ren knows about the missing girls, the wizard, and the evil magic that haunts Bryre. And what he knows will change Kym's life. Reminiscent of Frankenstein and the tales of the Brothers Grimm, this debut novel by MarcyKate Connolly stands out as a compelling, original story that has the feel of a classic.

Edin
by Lily Mayne
read by Michael Lesley
Part 2 of the Monstrous series
I was just a boy when the monsters rose on earth, forcing humans to flee to the coastlines and live in cramped, dirty, military-controlled cities. I enlisted as soon as I could to escape.
Now, I've been in the military for twelve years and have the scars-and missing body parts-to prove it. As a hardened soldier who's spent his fair share of time out in the Wastes-the dangerous place where monsters roam free-I didn't think anything could surprise me anymore.
But then circumstance forced me together with a big, annoying purple monster who's arrogant and bossy and pushes all my buttons in the worst-and best-ways. I need his help, and I hate needing anyone's help. But the more time I spend with him, the more I realise that maybe there's more from him that I need... and that he might need things from me too.
But I'm still a soldier. I still have responsibilities. It doesn't matter how I feel about Edin, because we can't be together. It's too dangerous. That doesn't stop me wanting him, though.
Edin is book two of the Monstrous series, a post-apocalyptic m/m fantasy series that focuses on monsters and human men falling in love. The story contains explicit content, including graphic depictions of torture and violence, and mentions PTSD.

The Rycke
by Lily Mayne
read by Michael Lesley
Part 3 of the Monstrous series
Life as a raider in the Wastes, where monsters roam and the military lurks, is as easy as it sounds.
I've been out here for a long time, and the fear that courses through my blood every time I step outside our camp walls to scavenge never fades. No matter how many monsters you face-and have to run for your life from-it doesn't ever get easier.
But when I come across a bound and injured monster in an abandoned military base, I can't leave him behind. His presence in our camp is causing tension, but I can't bring myself to care when I get to see a different side to him-when he starts to show me who he is beneath the pain and lingering trauma.
Despite his gentle nature, I soon discover why others are so desperate to own him; why the military, and now this stranger lurking outside our camp, want to put him back in chains and take him away from me.
Something is hiding under his skin, something that threatens to upend my entire life.
There's a reason why all other monsters fear him.
The Rycke contains explicit sexual content, graphic depictions of torture and violence, and deals with PTSD. It is book three in the Monstrous series, a post-apocalyptic m/m fantasy series that features monsters and human men falling in love. It is best to listen to the series in order.

Wyn
by Lily Mayne
read by Michael Lesley
Part 3.5 of the Monstrous series
I am a monster.
A ghoul. A demon. The bogeyman. I have been called all of them. Most creatures fear me but humans are repulsed by me. They are terrified of me. They have created legends about me ever since they became aware of my existence when the tear between our worlds grew and we-the monsters from their nightmares-flooded through in our droves.
There is only one human who isn't afraid of me, the only one who matters. I will destroy anyone who tries to hurt him or take him from me. Danny is mine.
For the first time in my unfathomably long life, I know what it means to want another so much that the thought of losing him threatens to ruin me. I will do anything to keep Danny with me for as long as I can have him-for as long as he is willing to stay by the side of an ancient, scarred creature with a voice so inhuman it has sent some mad.
For some reason, Danny loves my voice. For some reason, Danny loves me. And when we both decide that his natural human life is nowhere near enough time for us to have together, we go on a journey between worlds to the one place where we can do what it takes for us to be together forever.
Wyn is a sweet, low-angst novella and part of the Monstrous series. Monstrous is a post-apocalyptic m/m fantasy series that features monsters and human men falling in love and is intended for mature listeners. It is best to listen to this series in order.

Gloam
by Lily Mayne
read by Michael Lesley
Part 4 of the Monstrous series
When a strange woman shows up outside our camp in the Wastes with monsters chained up to her RV, it feels like I'm the only one who actually wants to help them.
That big, grey-skinned monster with the cage on his head and the chain hanging from his back-something is telling me I need to help him. I need to free him. But I have absolutely no idea how I'm supposed to do that, especially when he can't even talk to me to tell me how.
Collector Mary is finally leaving our camp to head back to her monster menagerie, so I do the only thing I can think of to help him: I go with her.
Now, this big beastie and I are traveling companions for the foreseeable future. I just have to think of a way to get that cage off his head, which seems like an impossible task. But I'm not giving up. He has no one else, and when I start to discover who he is beneath the cage, my motivation to free him becomes far more than just a desire to help.
This is so dangerous. The military is lurking. Vicious monsters are lurking. And when Mary turns out to be even worse than we could have ever imagined, my desperate bid to save this monster turns into a deadly game of cat and mouse.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to die out here.
