Monstrous Lies: Forgotten City, Book 1
Length: 9 hrs and 23 mins

Thirty years ago the world as we know it was lost.

Now humans live like rats, desperate for food and safety. The wall towers before us as a mocking reminder of what happened. The wall that keeps the monsters locked away from us. The wall that keeps us safe. The wall that every day I sneak through.

I thought I was safe in the light beyond its scarred concrete. I thought I knew the way of the world. Then, night falls and I’m trapped beyond the wall. Monsters come out to play in an explosion of shadows, claws, and tails. Their black eyes track me like prey until he comes—their leader…and he claims I’m his.

I play along. I bide my time, but as past and present collide I find my carefully laid survival plan unraveling. The secrets the monsters keep make me realize that the wall might not be to contain the monsters inside, but to keep the truth from getting out.

But in that forgotten city I find my purpose, my future. All the monstrous lies we were told come unraveled, and when they do sides must be chosen. Loyalties will be tested and the darkness might claim us all.

Monstrous Lies is the first book in the Forgotten City series, which is best enjoyed in order.

Thirty years ago, the world as we know it was lost.

Now humans live like rats, desperate for food and safety, the wall towering before us as a mocking reminder of what happened.

Some are born into privilege and wealth, and I am one of those. I spend my days trying to change the world we live in and fighting for the truth as any good scientist does. However, when I am thrust through the wall, I have to fight just to survive.

Hurt, alone, and scared, I run smack into one of the very creatures we are taught to fear—a monster. But this monster is intent on protecting me, even as I fear him.

Together, we must delve into the past to find the truth behind the monster’s creation, the truth behind what happened all those years ago. When we do, it changes my entire future. The world crumbling around me, I cling to the only honest thing I find—him.

When the humans decide they want their research and their scientist back, I am ripped from the safety of his arms. Once more fighting to survive, I promise to find the truth, even if it costs me my life.

With my monster at my side, I will untangle the lies to find the truth, and when I do, this whole monstrous plan will come unraveled.

Monstrous Truths is the second book in the Forgotten City series. Each book can be listened to as a standalone, but the series is best enjoyed in order.

Thirty years ago, the world as we know it was lost.

Now humans live like rats, desperate for food and safety, the wall towering before us as a mocking reminder of what happened… A wall I find myself running to for refuge.

I’ve spent my whole life uncovering the truth, telling the world the reality behind the stories that they watch. I’m the one on their screens, the adrenaline junkie, the mayor’s perfect daughter. Until one day, I pick up the wrong story. With no other choice, I run and hide in the one place I will be safe from those hunting me—the wall.

However, once over it, I don’t find safety; I find chains. Captured by my enemy, a monster, and held at his whims, I have no choice but to use every weapon at my disposal to keep myself alive and prove my worth to him.

Samael, The Mad King: the monster that hates humans more than any other, the one who watches me like he cannot wait to kill me, but when fate intervenes, and we find ourselves turning to the other for answers, he has no choice but to keep me alive. After all, my enemy’s enemy is my friend.

Lies have been told, truths have been revealed, but now it’s time to end this once and for all.

It is time for the monsters to take their revenge.

It is time for our Monstrous Ends.
