Ebonreach

The Fort Terminus Files

By: Peter North, Virgil Knightley

Narrated by: Jonathan Waters, Aurora Bliss

Memories bleed. Secrets kill.

The ink on Roland Halloway’s P.I. license is barely dry when blue crystals and murdered bodies collide with his own fractured war memories. The perpetual twilight city of Ebonreach, where memory rain falls and magitech shields fail, conceals darker secrets than even a whiskey-numb veteran can fathom.

He’s not on the case alone, though. With the alluring wood elf Amoretta wielding forbidden memory magic and a seductive succubus nightclub singer pulling deadly strings, Roland races through neon-soaked back alleys and shadowy underground tunnels in search of answers. Malicious tech, corrupt officials, and prophetic sketches forecasting his own death won’t put a stop to this investigation—but the truth about what he did during the war just might.

In this gritty noir fantasy thriller, the drinks are stronger than the ogres, and the past is more painful than any bullet.

Welcome to Ebonreach, where forgetting is the kindest mercy.

One of their best

One of the best books I’ve enjoyed this year - from the story to the voice acting this is a 10/10. I look forward to more!

Harem noir

I didn't think I needed a book like this in my life. The entire story had me at the edge of my seat. I can't wait to see more of this world from the authors. Keep it up.

Please make into a series

Exactly as the title says. Noir harem romance needs to be explored. Only issue is the MC has way too much plot armor. And really makes it only due to luck and a smart mouth rather than cunning or intelligence.

Amazing

nice dark gritty noir spin

I loved the whole vibe of the city and blamd of magic and technology. great job of having a well thought out setting slowly leaked like the memories
