Urban fantasy literature features new book and comic releases

Recent releases in the urban fantasy genre include the book series “Secrets of Dublin: Verbotene Zauber” and the comic “Das letzte Haus am Rand des Waldes”.

In the “Secrets of Dublin” series, set in Dublin, antique dealer Leslie Delwood becomes entangled in a murder investigation after opening a pawned Ouija board. This action binds a demon, appearing as a sixteen-year-old boy, to her.

“Das letzte Haus am Rand des Waldes” is a 168-page urban fantasy comedy comic. The plot follows Pierrot, a disfigured postman, and his obsession with a mannequin named Lola. The narrative involves Pierrot’s mother, a witch capable of bringing objects to life, and explores absurd, dark comedic themes involving magical transformations and complex interpersonal conflicts.
