    Summary

    A tale of fate, freedom, and the relentless call of the sea, The Snake of Eden Trilogy follows the rise of legends and the bond that defies them all.

    In The Serpent’s Oath, noble-born naval officer Aziraphale Archer finds himself a prisoner aboard Crowley’s ship. As duty clashes with an undeniable attraction, both men must decide where their true loyalties lie.

    In the prequel, The Serpent’s Wake, a young Crowley, betrayed and cast adrift, claws his way into the ruthless world of piracy. His journey from outcast to captain is one of vengeance, survival, and the price of power.

    The sequel, The Serpent’s Reign, sees them as infamous pirate captains, feared and hunted, carving their names into history. But with the past nipping at their heels and the seas growing ever more treacherous, they must face the ultimate test—will they rule the waves together, or be swallowed by them?

    A sweeping trilogy of adventure, betrayal, and a love as wild as the ocean itself.

    Summary

    Aziraphale Whitegate is a cellist, the pride and joy of the wealthy and well known, God-fearing, Whitegate family. He is front and centre of their church community, representing everything the family stands for. Talent, dedication, class, subservience and above all else the image of perfection Gabriel has carefully crafted for them.

    Crowley hates him the second he meets him. From the tip of his polished shoes to his perfectly buttoned shirt Aziraphale represents the worst of society as far as the guitarist is concerned. Now he’s expected to play alongside him and make nice, even though Aziraphale isn’t exactly making it easy.

    But people’s lives are a lot more complicated under the surface.

    Summary

    Music critic Aziraphale Fell is trying to break into the world of television, when he is signed to make a documentary about former-rockstar-turned-composer Anthony Crowley. It’s been eleven years since Aziraphale’s disastrous review of Crowley’s debut opera nipped his classical music career in the bud. He can only hope that Crowley will get over his admittedly justified grudge to make the TV show a success.

    A classical music sex comedy. Yes, really.
