Ravaging Phantom

by S.T. Arsheep

A bullet for your sins seems like a fair exchange when you've lost everything.

After drinking his way through every dive bar in every spaceport, Zaven Adhzivian is hunting for absolution at the ass-end of the galaxy. Not that serving vigilante justice will dull the pain. Or bring her back... He never even got to say goodbye, let alone “I love you”.

As his reckless crusade to clean up criminal elements in the outer rims finally catches up, Zaven finds himself betrayed and cornered. His only remaining currency is his own life, and he's ready to settle that tab for good, unless he gets one last shot at redemption.

The Phantom Vengeance series delivers sizzling slow burn alien romance, adrenaline-fuelled adventure, and a disaster pansexual battle throuple who'll steal your heart while breaking into high-security facilities and ducking for cover. Perfect for anyone who enjoys their sci-fi with equal parts action, humour, and heat. This LGBTQ+ inclusive series proves that even in the cold vacuum of space, some flames never die.

About the author

S.T. Arsheep was a copywriter (writing fiction only in secret, shhh!) long before trading slinging ink in marketing for wordsmithery in book writing. As an industry veteran with over two decades of experience crafting captivating copy, she brings a masterful command of voice to her evocative prose.

Known as the Slow Burn Queen of gritty speculative fiction, this LGBTQ+ author reigns supreme in creating character-driven, slathered-in-feels sci-fi and fantasy that simmers with delicious tension. She loves pairing grumpy heroes with sassy, self-assured heroines, and savouring every longing glance and accidental touch until you’re screaming “Kiss already!!!” at a book. Expect steamy scenes, witty banter, and happily ever afters that’ll leave you smiling through tears of hard-earned joy.

A Scandinavian descended from Vikings and one Polish horse thief, she’s an autistic elder millennial who loves a sinfully moist tiramisu. When not writing, you can find her at the stables with her kiddo, in the kitchen with her husband, learning a new craft, chaos gardening, dreaming of countryside living, and doing the same thing she does every night; plotting how to take over the world. (No, not really; just how to start an alpaca farm.)

short but fabulous

I loved this novella. It was short but such a good beginning!
I love Zaven and feel so bad for him. He’s heartbroken and trying to survive/get revenge.
I definitely still have some questions but I’m sure they will be answered in book 2.
Definitely recommend picking up this book/series!

Short and sweet. I absolutely love the world ST Arsheep is building book by book. The characters are hilarious and so much fun to follow. I love Zaven as the MC, and Lucan is a lovely sassy twink bf.

Warning : It is the slowest of slow burn. Book 1 the FMC is nothing but a distant memory...

On to book 2!

Zaven is one of those characters that sneaks up on you. One minute, you’re reading about his grief and his vigilante adventures, and the next… well, the next thing you know he’s under your skin. And the ending?! I immediately picked up the next book. I won’t spoil it here, but I will say you’re missing out if you don’t.

This book is a quick introduction to S. T. Arsheep’s style of writing. Lots of voice, tons of snark, and even more heart.
