  Fletcher 
  I’m a total nerd, but I look like a jock. I had a perfect GPA in high school, and my GPA in college is perfect too. I smile when I’m supposed to smile. I have two loving parents and a brother and sister who are always by my side. I’m the perfect all-American guy. 
  But the only thing that actually defines me is the before. The things I keep hidden deep inside because I’m too afraid of losing what I have now. 
  The past lives deep inside me as I force the plastic smile on my face. And no one sees through it because I’m just that good. 
  No one except . . . him. 
  Ronan 
  Every day is like a dream. A dream I live, not knowing when I’ll wake and find I’m still living in a nightmare. 
  I never made it out, and these past few years have all been fake. 
  Then he walks into my classroom . . . with that cocky smile in place. Not a care in the world. I doubt he’s ever had to worry about a thing in his entire life. 
  He's exactly like all of the entitled, spoiled brats I teach every day in my part of the college campus, but something about Fletcher Moore really rubs me the wrong way. 
  I shouldn’t let him get to me, but something about him makes me too angry. Too annoyed. 
  Just too damn . . . hostile.

  Brion entered the temple and stood as if rooted to the ground. There was a horror in this place—it clung to everything. Muffled and hooded men stood silent and unmoving about the room, their attention rigidly focused on a figure in the center. Brion wondered how he knew they were men—only their eyes showed, eyes completely empty of expression yet somehow reminding him of a bird of prey. 
  Then suddenly the figure in the center moved. It was a weird, crazily menacing action—and in an instant Brion knew he had found the enemy, the source of the evil that infected the PLANET OF THE DAMNED. 
  Dis was a harsh, inhospitable, dangerous place and the Magter made it worse. They might have been human once—but they were something else now.    The Magter had only one desire—Kill! Kill everything, themselves, their planet, the universe if they could—Brion Brandd was sent in at the eleventh hour. His mission was to save Dis, but it looked as though he was going to preside over its annihilation. Space derring Do. Rip roaring action. Evil Aliens. A bewildered hero. Lots of fun.

  The Northern - A Novel

  “The Northern is both a tender-hearted, contemplative coming-of-age novel and adventure-filled road trip story that brings a unique time in sports history to life.” — Zoe Whittall, author of The Fake and The Best Kind of People
  		 
  “W.P. Kinsella has company: Jacob Mooney has written another classic Canadian novel about baseball.” — Ben Lindbergh, co-host of Effectively Wild and author of The MVP Machine and The Only Rule Is It Has to Work
  		 
  It is the summer of 1952 and three men — well, one man and two boys — are on a spiritual and commercial mission. Dispatched from Minnesota to Western Ontario, they have been hired by an upstart Mormon baseball card company to find licensees for their products among the young men filing out Korean War–era rosters in the Northern League, at the bottom-most rung of professional baseball. What the Northern has for them, and the secrets and deceptions they have for each other, will drive their two weeks in Canada into ever-growing chaos.
  		 
  In a vision of early 1950s Ontario that emphasizes accuracy but remains robustly anti-nostalgic and contemporary, the three businessmen have themselves an adventure of personal discovery, interpersonal hardship, and more than a little danger. With a world shaped by the trauma of World War II and the generations of deflated adults and orphaned children left behind by it, the story sets out on a clear-eyed and psychologically precise character study taking on grief, fantasy, adolescence, and family. As the narrator for this story of salesmen and ambitious athletes, 12-year-old Chris is a budding acerbic, able to be carried away by the — often empty — hopes of others and put his feet in the ground to stop them.
  		 
  A novel concerned with sports, labor, growing up, and God, The Northern is a funny and heartbreaking book about the series of disappointments that characterize the progress of growing up.

  The Woman & the Priest is a haunting psychological drama by Nobel Prize-winning author Grazia Deledda. Set in a remote Sardinian village at the turn of the 20th century, the novel unfolds over the course of two fateful days, tracing the emotional turmoil of a young priest, Paul, and his devoted mother, Maria Maddalena. 
  As Paul prepares to sneak away from the presbytery, consumed by forbidden longing, his mother senses a growing darkness within him. Her fears mount as she begins to suspect a dangerous entanglement with a woman living nearby—one that threatens not just his vocation, but their souls. Through rich introspection and piercing moral tension, Deledda masterfully explores themes of devotion, maternal love, temptation, and the silent war between religious duty and human desire. 
  Narrated with quiet intensity by Brett Carter, this timeless tale of emotional restraint and spiritual reckoning offers a deeply human portrait of two people caught between the sacred and the profane.
