The edgy, funny follow-up to the USA Today bestselling The Demon Overlord’s Retirement Plan, where an annoying long-lost “cousin,” war, and the prospect of love all threaten the Demon Overlord’s retirement.

After centuries of conquering kingdoms and terrifying the cosmos, the Demon Overlord just wants to retire in peace. But when one dangerous succubus and a couple of feuding barons come to the small town of Lower Middleton, peace is hellishly hard to find.

Now Willem Porter (definitely not Galornus Prime, destroyer of worlds) must navigate enchanted pickles, noble politics, and the delicate art of staying out of trouble. All while pretending he’s just a humble turnip farmer, with a perfectly normal goat.

Love, Politics, and Other Acts of War is a cozy, laugh-out-loud fantasy of infernal bureaucracy, reluctant heroism, and small-town chaos. Perfect for fans of Legends & Lattes, Good Omens, and anyone who likes their comfort reads served with sarcasm, tea, and a touch of demonic meddling.

A Gentle Apocalypse

M.H. Foster is the author of A Gentle Apocalypse and the Janissary series. Foster writes across the spectrum of fantasy, from quiet villages and retired villains to battlefields where ideals clash under banners and steel. Whether absurd or austere, every story explores what it means to fight, fail, and find purpose when the world refuses to make sense.
