  The war of the three realms begins here… 
  In the heart of the Samtoy Nation during the pre-colonial era of Philippine history, the world of Filipino heroes, deities, and mythological monsters collide in an ambitious re-telling of a classic Filipino epic. 
  Our story begins with Namongan, a healer and midwife from an isolated village in the Ilocos Region who discovers that she is destined to bear a child blessed by the Poon deities. This child is Lam-ang and he is the first Lakandian. Maturing at a rate unheard of amongst mere mortals, Lam-ang also possesses the strength of a hundred men and was trained to be the greatest warrior for good the mortal realm has ever seen. 
  Together with Mangmankik, an anito spirit assigned to look after him by the Poons, Lam-ang sets out on a quest to find the missing pieces of the Gayaman Amulet and rescue his father who was abducted by the insidious night creatures on the night that he was born. 
  This book covers the first half of the life of Lam-ang, derived from the Ilocano epic Biag ni Lam-ang. The story follows the adventures of our hero as he uncovers the truth about himself as well as the truth about his role in the war between the forces of good and evil that threatens not just the fate of the world of men but all the realms of the spirit world as well.

  Arthurian legends are reborn in this upbeat queer urban fantasy with a mystery at its heart
  		 
  The knights of the round table are alive in Vancouver, but when one winds up dead, it’s clear the familiar stories have taken a left turn. Hildie, a Valkyrie and the investigator assigned to the case, wants to find the killer — and maybe figure her life out while she’s at it. On her short list of suspects is Wayne, an autistic college student and the reincarnation of Sir Gawain, who these days is just trying to survive in a world that wasn’t made for him. After finding himself at the scene of the crime, Wayne is pulled deeper into his medieval family history while trying to navigate a new relationship with the dean’s charming assistant, Bert — who also happens to be a prime murder suspect. To figure out the truth, Wayne and Hildie have to connect with dangerous forces: fallen knights, tricky runesmiths, the Wyrd Sisters of Gastown. And a hungry beast that stalks Wayne’s dreams.
  		 
  The Winter Knight is a propulsive urban fairy tale and detective story with queer and trans heroes that asks what it means to be a myth, who gets to star in these tales, and ultimately, how we make our stories our own.

  The Eye of Balor is pure, evil power.  
  She can’t wait to use it. 
  With this magic weapon, Ireland’s Phantom Queen—the Morrigan—will overthrow the Emerald Isle and claim it for her legion of evil fairies. But first, she has a grudge to settle and a prophecy to thwart. 
  Zeke Zooter is the fourth-great grandson of the Morrigan’s nemesis, the Irish cobbler Riley Brogan. Through Riley’s line, Zeke has inherited a talisman that grants the rightful bearer thirteen wishes. But Zeke’s first few wishes backfire, and using the magic lands the Morrigan on his trail. 
  With the Phantom Queen’s forces closing in, Zeke and two gifted friends follow a cranky leprechaun to the land of his forefathers. There, they meet others who join the cause, and together they set out to pass the Three Tasks that will lead Zeke to Balor’s prison lair and a showdown with the Morrigan. 
  If he is to triumph, Zeke must make the right choice with his final wish and learn which friends to trust by unraveling the prophetic riddle spoken to him in the Hall of Whispers: 
  One guards a secret that governs your life, 
  Painful and sharp like the cut of a knife. 
  Two of your number are not who they seem. 
  Two steal away as the dawn robs a dream. 
  One will abandon the cause near the end. 
  One has judged right between villain and friend. 
  Five will be gone ere the struggle is done, 
  ’Til one friend remains, to stand with The One.
