Orgies & Barbaren #2

By Hartmann, this first volume of Orgies & Barbaren from Dark Dragon Books (2023) announces itself with striking confidence. The cover presents a nude red-haired woman posed against a large occult mandala or summoning circle, with a partially legible manuscript inscribed "Invocatio Daemonum" visible beside her — setting an unmistakable tone of dark mysticism and sensuality. It's a bold, atmospheric introduction to what promises to be an adult fantasy series with a decidedly esoteric edge.
