Your Mental Health Matters to Me - Trigger Warnings for Tora's fiction books

I consider the mental health of my readers important. I’m including this list of potential triggers or themes people may not want to read, so you can determine if my books are for you or not.

My books are crafted for adults seeking rich, soul-stirring adventures, with themes and experiences intended for mature audiences. If they were a TV show, they’d have the rating of MA: Mature Audiences-strong language, violence, and sexual situations.

Beyond this general rating, here are the individual books content warnings.

Spoiler alert! These warnings do include spoilers for the stories.

Legends of Lairheim Series

The complete Legends of Lairheim series book covers presented against the world of Lairheim, introducing readers to an epic science-fantasy civilization they can explore.

This is an action-adventure, epic science fantasy set on another planet. The people are homogeneous, so there isn’t a wide variety of races, at least not until book 3. There are other sentient species besides the humans.

All books in the series include:

  • Violence: There are multiple monster battles, with people (and animals) killed in all the books.
  • Sexuality: The society is polyamorous, with most people pansexual. There are mentions of same-sex and multiple partner relationships.
  • Theocracy: The society is theocratic, following the 4-fold Goddess and Her Consort. The spirituality of the people is woven into the story as it is part of their culture.

Sentinel Witches Series

Hero image introducing the Sentinel Witches series, showing the two available books against a modern city where hidden supernatural creatures hint that the world is far richer than it first appears.

This is a dark urban fantasy with supernatural thriller vibes. The main premise of the series is an ancient society of witches who fight demons to protect humanity. Various Goddesses manifest to give Catlyn the tools she needs to defeat the Daemons.

All the books in this series include:

  • Occult, Ritual, and Witches: The rituals and spirituality are real, as are the Goddesses. This is a story about witches, which includes their spirituality. Tarot, sound and energy healing, yoga, meditation, full moon rituals, shamanic journeys, etc. are part of this lifestyle.
  • Demons/Daemons and other evil creatures: The demons are from a lower dimension and world, and therefore, have a different morality than humans. These are NOT the demons from Charmed, but creatures who cause violence, mayhem, and death.
  • Strong Language: My characters swear.
  • Violence: The witches fight demons, and the battles are bloody, and death results.

Kidnapping: spoiler alert!

Torture: There is one torture scene at the end, however, it doesn’t go into graphic detail.

Rape/Sexual Assault: There is a rape scene, but it isn’t graphic.

Sex: Slow-burn romance (no sex in this book, but plenty of spice in the coming books!)

Child Harm: in one scene, children have been killed (off screen, we only see their bodies covered by a sheet). In another, an infant has been attacked and bitten (again, off-screen and we only see the child bleeding) {Did I not say demons are evil?}
