Dread Knight #3
Dark Covenant
A reunion with a lost love. A compromise with a bitter enemy. A gambit to restore a broken alliance.
Duncan and his girls have uncovered a demonic plot to destroy the last remnants of civilization, but they have no hope of stopping it on their own. Yet to assemble the army they need, they must set aside old grudges and forge an unlikely partnership - not only with the woman who cast Duncan into the Condemned, but with a man who wants to destroy the Dread Knights once and for all.
Dark Covenant is the third installment of the Dread Knight series, a post-apocalyptic epic fantasy with light gamelit elements inspired by the world’s oldest role-playing game.

About the author
Sarah Hawke
80 books237 followersSarah Hawke is a prolific writer of science fiction and fantasy in multiple genres, including erotica, harem, and bondage. Her books are known for their intricate world-building, twisting plots, and fleshed-out characters—and of course their many intense, steamy sex scenes.
If you are interested in "pure" traditional harem stories, The Lost Fleet is the perfect place to start! Wings of the Seraph is a shorter, older series but also hits most of the traditional harem notes. Shadow of the Seraph features a rotating male and female pov with some F-F scenes involving temporary futanari, so avoid that unless it is your jam!
Her fantasy universe features many types of erotica stories involving bondage (Elf Slave, all the Spider Queen books) and non-traditional harems (The Amazon's Pledge, The Amazon's Vengeance). She also has two ongoing fantasy erotica series with intense action and multiple points of view, War of the White Throne and The Blade of Highwind.

The continued adventures of our Anti-Paladin protagonist as he finds out, much to his shock, that the gods of evil are in fact evil and that the gods of good....well, they are good but their servants suck. There's a continued amount of naughtiness and graphic sex spread between a surprisingly dark and well-written fantasy world. It's definitely a market for a lot of geeks and I have no doubt if you like the concept of Rule 34 elves and witches then this is your kind of book.

Another great installment
This has been a great series so far, and I can't wait for book 4. Hopefully not too much longer!

Blew me away.
I devoured this series like a certain deva devours…well, *cough*, you know. This third installment was packed full of the drama, intrigue, and sizzling yet meaningful steam I’ve come to expect from Sarah Hawke. Her writing prowess and skill at plotting were on full display. Zaelya’s arc, especially, had me on the edge of my seat.
I highly recommend you pick up this series!

The Smut is Good, The Story is Great
I was introduced to the author by a friend online. I was looking for some new smut to read. I read another story by the author and was quite impressed with the story. Even though the smut was pretty good, too. So, I picked up this series afterwards. And it has not let me down. I read the entire series in probably two days. Absolutely, love the idea of a post apocalyptic fantasy world. The plot mechanizations keep me riveted. The character development is fun. As I said, the smut is good. But it is the story in the characters that have truly caught my heart. I cannot wait for the final book in this series. I guess I'll have to read some of the authors other works, in the meantime.

This book continues a fairly original story set in a fantasy world that is facing it's own version of post-apocalyptic events. In their chase, magical corruption and blight have laid waste to many.
At 500 pages, this book at times got a little sluggish, but it finished strong, and we see more plots come to conclusion. The harem grows by one expected member, and the personalities are all different and fun. The author says the final book will be out in 2025, and I look forward to it.

Deliciously complicated.
As with all of Sarah Hawke's works, this series left me with a keen hunger for the storyline to continue. The character development is exquisite, allowing a close attachment to all the important plot revelations. I purchased the first three books together and always had one immediately available until I finished Book 3. Sarah has found a recipe that can satisfy minds attached to hearts in a pleasant and rewarding literary work.

This guy needs a nap.
The story is storying enough to make me desperate for the next book. Less exciting bedroom scenes than the previous book but it’s set up for an excellent final bill in the next instalment.

Can’t wait for the Conclusion
Simply amazing and ever growing. Another phenomenal addition to Ms Hawke’s place on the book shelves. I cannot wait for the ending to this story

As always, far too much sex (doesn’t he ever get bored?) but the adventure is well-written, when he’s not wobbling his willy around.

Amazing combination of naughty smut and loving romance. The fantasy and action elements are also very well written. Sarah Hawke is definitely one of the top writers in the fantasy/harem genre IMO. Some of her earlier books are hit or miss but she's really found her groove now and has been consistently pumping out quality books.
