About Victoria DeLuis
Victoria DeLuis is a short story author and novelist, who loves reading – everything – and writing paranormal cosy mysteries, light urban fantasy, supernatural romantic suspense, and the occasional sci-fi.
She was born and raised in South Wales, where she still lives with her husband, daughter, three overlord cats and a doting dog. This offers her a rich heritage and mythology to use in her stories.
After the birth of her fabulous daughter, she decided to abandon the corporate life, return to education, and pursue her lifelong passion for writing. She studied creative writing and gained a first class honours degree and a Masters in Novel Writing.
She is now busy, busy, busy: Being a mum, writing (and doing all the additional tasks that come with publishing), and running her small book promotion site.
Her works include the Rune Witch Mysteries, the Independent Necromancers' Bureau, and the Relic Guardians (with Meg Cowley).

Blog postI have been in a bit of a writing slump this year and have found it hard to focus. I think Covid has derailed most of our lives in more ways than one. On top of Covid, we’ve had a couple of family deaths (not Covid related), and a lot of stress.

We had a terrifying experience with Sky this month. On the morning of the 6th of April, she was fine, but as the day progressed, she went off her food. By the morning of the 7th, it was clear something was very wrong, and we took her to the vet as soon as they opened.

Blog postI was on twitter the other day and someone posted the question – “do writers need to research of should they just write?” I have seen this come up time and time again, and I always find it surprising that people doubt the need for writers to complete research.

Fans of Lara Croft and Indiana Jones will enjoy this fast-paced contemporary fantasy adventure series filled with magic, action and kick-ass characters. Start the adventure today.
The Relic Guardians Series:
Ancient Magic, Hidden Magic, Cursed Magic, Gathered Magic
Plus the Short Stories:
Rogue Magic, Stolen Magic
Ancient Magic
Relic Guardian. Defender of Mankind. Witch.
Magic is real - but you knew that, right?
I'm Zoe Stark, and the last thing I need after saving London from a possessed African mask is the theft of another magical artefact - one that's far more deadly.
When Kukulkan's Skull is found and promptly stolen, it's up to me to recover this legendary relic before its demonic powers are unleashed upon mankind.
With the Day of the Dead, and the zenith of the skull's devastating powers fast approaching, I'm out of luck and out of time.
Not knowing who to trust or where to turn for help, it's up to me to save the world, but first, I have to save myself.
Hidden Magic
One stone. One Wish. One life changing event.
I'm Hayley Bevan, a museum curator, and my secondment to New York is about to get a whole lot more interesting. I couldn't wait to pore over ancient Buddhist discoveries, but there was one that I hadn't expected to see. Little did I know, I'd find more than I bargained for; a stone that was nothing more than a myth… or so we all thought.
With a wish-fulfilling stone in my grasp and a murderous investor desperate to get his hands on it, I'm thrust into a world I never knew existed.
Now I have a weapon that can destroy worlds, and no idea how to keep it safe in a world where I'm drowned by magic I don't understand and can't control.
How do I find my place? How far will my journey take me? More importantly, who can I trust to guide me?
Cursed Magic
Jamie Oxford: Friend. Foe. Bane of my existence!
I should have known better than to trust Jamie with the location of Pandora's Box. The minute I tell him, he steals it from under MI5's nose. Maybe I'd be impressed - if I wasn't so furious. Now it's in the hands of an infamous Magicai, determined to sell it to the highest bidder, who could unleash the next apocalypse. No big deal, right?
Jamie can try all he likes to redeem himself, but as usual, the fate of the world rests in my hands. Now, I have to recover the box for a second time, before it's opened.
If only I could do it without Jamie tagging along for the ride.
Maybe the apocalypse is better than dealing with that idiot.
Gathered Magic
A magical portal. A new World. A price to pay.
'Hayley Bevan, Magicai, Traveller'.
Eira never dreamed moving home would be so … deadly.
Eira’s looking for a fresh start following her divorce. But when she heads home to the place of her birth and opens her spiritual shop, Crystal Magic, what she discovers is a fresh corpse and a ghost declaring herself murdered.
She soon has her hands full, training a new apprentice, making new friends, and finding far too many bodies!
Eira’s instincts are pulling her in every direction, but with her criminal and callous ex on her mind, can she learn to trust in herself, focus her abilities, and find the killers?
Join witch Eira Snow, her bubbly apprentice Fleur Evans, and a cast of quirky characters as they solve mysteries in the quaint Welsh village of Caerleon.
