In The Court of the Nameless Queen

Take a trip across the sundered worlds to the Queendom of Corynnod, a dark realm of sorcery and desire, ruled over by she who is Queen, goddess, and mother to us all, in four fantastical and titillating tales of wonder, adventure, love, sex, and—of course—spiders.   

BROOD:  A true and credible account of how Freydis Thorkilsdottir, war witch, became Freydis Gothi and the Mother of Abominations.  Freydis Thorkilsdottir, soldier and war witch in the army of the Nameless Queen, has always struggled to find a place for herself as a transgender woman.  She volunteers to lead men over the walls in a castle assault, in hopes that, should she survive, she might earn the attentions—and the favors—of her great and terrible araneidan Queen . . . 

THE APOSTATE:  An account of how Freydis Gothi made the acquaintance of her most beloved and treasured servant.  Fleeing oppression and unspeakable abuse, Kristina Kaminski—a woman who loves women in a land where such things are not allowed—travels into the grim and mysterious north and meets a most peculiar woman upon the shores of the sea.  As she settles into her new life, it comes to pass that a dark conversion often necessitates a dark baptism . . . 

TRANSMUTATION:  An account of the coming of Steff Pelczynski, diabolist, to Caer Eldur and the court of the Marchioness.  Steff is no man, but don’t try telling her that.  When the young wizard travels into the north, seeking a change, she—with the help of a rather commanding older woman—finds a change she didn't know she was looking for . . . 

THE CARNIVAL OF CARNAL DELIGHTS:  An account of how Freydis Gothi acquired her legendary sword.  Freydis Thorkilsdottir, Kristina the Apostate, and their friends take an excursion to a festival of wondrous terrors and delights where nothing is as it seems . . . and things already seemed pretty suggestive to begin with!
