Earth, Beast, Metal

Eliza Leone

Thenia spent the past decade trapped in a manipulative relationship where she was to smile on cue, be pretty, and keep her mouth shut. Having escaped that mistake, she's now looking for a new place to plant her roots.

Serena is one of many children, and always the one left behind and forgotten. When her only friend dies, she's left adrift, but something keeps her on Giri lands.

Ashton's grandparents died in their sleep, and now he must return home and care for his Gram's life work and his Pops’ stunning gardens. Left with only his memories, a friend advises Ashton to hire a groundskeeper.

Behind the scenes, something is brewing. Secrets long forgotten are unearthed, ancient allies find themselves working together again, and sometimes the best weapon isn't a sword--it's ones and zeros.

Read the first book in The AIS Files, a new series in the Chronicles from Alku universe. Earth, Beast, Metal is a blend of fantasy and science fiction with a closed-door polyamorous relationship and asexual representation.

About the Author

Eliza Leone

Eliza Leone is an author from the Pacific Northwest who specializes in chronicling the stories of her imaginary friends. As a kid, you could find her on the playground with a few kids acting out the stories they'd made up. When she got older and discovered that entire worlds were hidden within the pages of endless books, chances are her nose was in one. Over time, Friday nights were reserved for bookstore runs with her mother, and together, they'd resupply for a week of adventures.

Writing had always been a far-off dream, but her ability to spell and do that grammar thing correctly was severely lacking. It wasn't until her mid-twenties that she decided that if she were only writing for herself, no one would care about her lack of proper punctuation. Ten years and over a dozen books later, her family, human, and fiction, convinced her to finally share her stories with the world.

From short stories and micro-fiction to the entire urban fantasy universe of Alku and its people, Eliza can't wait for you to giggle, sob, and throw your book across the room with her. Just...please don't throw the e-readers.
