Summary: Children of Anzulla is a crossover from Kashel Char’s New Beginnings M/M Series, and is recommended for pre-read. DRAXTON: Have you ever looked for something you know is there but can’t find it? My name is Draxton Dubois. I’m the world’s best speleologist and cave cartographer. I have level one autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and I’ve been living independently since my grandfather died two years ago. I was born to explore caves, and when it comes to finding the door to another reality, I become a tire-screeching, hyper-focused maniac. When I use my charm, I know, no one can refuse me, especially when I’m wearing my sexy jean shorts and wide-brimmed hat, even if I pair them with flip-flops. I have a gift for crawling around in dark spaces, and my obsession with my work leaves very little room for intimate relationships. But I will do anything to secure an extension to explore the Star Caves, nestled in the Cradle of Mankind, South Africa. With my grandfather’s map in hand, I set out to barter for more time. The plan was simple. Entice, seduce, and bribe the man responsible for my future. He accepted the bribe, my priceless map, but became a pain in my butt as soon as he started showing up at the site and refused me, three times. KELLAN: How do you keep a bubble from popping when you want to catch it in your hands? Easy, don’t try to catch it at all. Back in 2025, I was a professor of paleontology, but it seemed falling through a time portal had made me stupid. I’m so in love with Draxton, and I would do anything to keep him a bit longer, even if it meant pushing him into another man’s arms, to demonstrate that I don’t want to own, control, or smother him. How will I do that if I have to protect him while he’s going on all these missions to help my brother free Atlas, a dragon who was the only one who could take us back home?

Summary: "Hmmm, an alien, an angel, and a dead prophet. Welcome. We’ve been expecting you. Please come in." Operating a piece of heavy machinery, for example, a time machine under the influence of tainted human blood, is never a good idea, especially if my oldest friend and onboard computer, Lasitor, vowed to protect not only me but my bloodline for eternity. This is my story. If you haven't figured that out by now, I feel sorry for you and your parents. Anyhow, this is how I found my soulmate by accident in a time and place not written down in your human history books. My story comes with a warning label. It is a time travel, speculative science fiction fantasy—I’m spelling it out for those slow to grasp things like this. It contains elements that might shock or confuse you. Your human history about where you came from, and where you think you are going, might or might not be as you imagined. The explicit, graphic depictions of my love life and my travels are unsuitable for young, sensitive readers or anyone offended by gay sex. Thank you to the wonderful author who has taken the time to write it all down meticulously.

Summary: Phoenix was becoming a pressure cooker nearing bursting open, as the sequestered group of savant scientists and soldiers in the glass-domed pods in Antarctica were buzzing with sexual tension. Brad McCormick figured since the limbic system associated with sexual desire is linked to libido and the part of the brain responsible for higher-level functions, like planning and thinking, he had a problem he couldn’t solve without his leadership team. To put it more explicitly, the men were extremely sexually eager. Unbeknownst to the threat of external forces, the new Phoenician code of conduct, their scientific discoveries of new technologies and DNA manipulations hold the key to human survival—a blueprint for a new world, where the old divisions and conflicts become nothing more than relics of the past. This is a low-action, high-science-fiction fantasy story with bouts of silliness, steamy M/M romances, a wedding, and a "Quik-Fix Hall.” Phoenix Code is a prequel to the New Beginnings M/M series by Kashel Char. It is a re-edit of the original published work titled Men of Phoenix, written by Stefan Pride. Stefan invited Kashel to co-author and update it with fresh thoughts, preparing it for an audiobook recording. It was re-titled Phoenix Code Copyright © 2022 by Kashel Char and Stefan Pride.
