Odder Still exists in the larger These Treacherous Tides universe, but can be read without any prior knowledge of the world and is the start of its own series following Rubem and Tavish’s adventures. Here though, both the power-hungry rebels and the tight-gripped monopolies want to viciously dissect his parasite for its energy-producing abilities, and the only person offering him sincere help is the dashing and manipulative philanthropist selkie at the center of all the city’s chaos. But when a sentient parasite latches to his brainstem, he’s forced out of his comfortable-if lonesome-life in search of someone in the nearby underwater steampunk city who can safely remove it. Rubem is plenty happy keeping to his wine, his pets, and his extensive collection of fishnets. 🦭An underwater steampunk city of selkies ☢️A Marvel’s Venom-style parasite x human relationship

Design and art are by the amazing Odder Still features: Return to the These Treacherous Tide's steampunk-inspired world of mermaids and reimagined mythological creatures in this fast-paced, standalone adventure with an insult-slinging, opposites attract, hate-to-love romance between a grouchy thief and a sassy, self-proclaimed hero.I’m thrilled to finally show off the cover for Odder Still, which comes out June 9th. The selfish and the self-righteous can only flee together for so long before something snaps. But their path runs straight through the mist-laden and monster-filled swamp that exiled Cacao, with scheming poachers and a desperate cartel leader on their tail. He's determined to get his hands on it, even if it means guiding the annoyingly smug, annoyingly valiant, and even more annoyingly beautiful hero back home. When his ramshackle thievery goes wrong, a chaotic escape leaves him chained to the cartel's prisoner: a self-proclaimed hero with a hidden stash of power stones so large that Cacao would never need to steal again. No one with half a brain would rob the jungle's most notorious energy cartel-but their power-producing stones are the only thing that soothes Cacao's mysterious pain, and after being banished from his homeland for similar thefts, the lonely naga is desperate enough to try.
