  Dusk thought he knew the boundaries of his world - the endless tunnels of the Ronja mines, the cruel whims of his captors, and the crushing weight of a life in chains. 
  But when a hidden cavern reveals an ancient dragon skeleton and a mysterious crystal that seems to whisper directly to his soul, Dusk's world expands in ways he never imagined. 
  Suddenly thrust into a journey towards an unknown fate, he must navigate the perils of a world he barely remembers, all while grappling with an awakening power within him that he doesn't understand. 
  As Dusk uncovers long-buried secrets and forges unexpected alliances, he begins to realize that his quest for freedom may hold the key to something far greater. 
  In this breathtaking gay fantasy adventure, the line between slave and savior blurs as Dusk races to unlock the secrets of his past and the power of the dragon's legacy. 
  Curse of the Dragon's Eye contains a diverse cast of characters and queer themes. It was previously published under the title "The Crystal Eye" by Blake R. Wolfe. Although the title and cover are different, the content remains the same.

  Barry yearns for Cecil, but when he kisses him, the advance is rebuffed, and he's left to continue on in his dreary, humourless world, wondering if there will be anything more to his bleak existence.
  A week later, the two meet again. Can they confront their differences and become more than strangers with good -- but sometimes misaligned -- intentions?

  Kazim Ali is a poet, novelist, and essayist whose work explores themes of identity, migration, and the intersections of cultural and spiritual traditions. His poetry is known for its lyrical and expressive language, as well as its exploration of themes such as love, loss, and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. "Sukun" means serenity or calm, and a sukun is also a form of punctuation in Arabic orthography that denotes a pause over a consonant. This Sukun draws a generous selection from Kazim's six previous full-length collections, and includes 35 new poems. It allows us to trace Ali's passions and concerns, and take the measure of his art: the close attention to the spiritual and the visceral, and the deep language play that is both musical and plain spoken.[sample poem]The Fifth PlanetCome, early summer in the mountains, and come, strawberry moon,and carry me softly in the silver canoe on wires to the summit, where in that way of late night useless talk, the bright dark asks me, "What is the thing you are most afraid of?" and I already know which lie I will tell.There were six of us huddled there in the cold, leaning on the rockslingering in the dark where I do not like to linger, looking up at thesharp round pinnacle of light discussing what shapes we saw—rabbit,man, goddess—but that brightness for me was haunted by no thing,no shadow at all in the lumens.What am I, what am I, I kept throwing out to the hustling silence.No light comes from the moon, he's just got good positioning and I suppose that's the answer, that's what I'm most afraid of,that I'm a mirror, that I have no light of my own, that I hang in empty spacein faithful orbit around a god or fatherneither of Whom will ever see me whole. I keep squinting to try to see Jupiterwhich the newspaper said would be found near the moon but it's nowhere, they must have lied. Or like god, there is too muchreflection, headsplitting and profane, scraping up every shadow,too much light for anyone to see.

But after escaping a bad relationship, Iris has been keeping her distance from Barrett and the cute little nickname she has for Iris. Explaining why either of them likes it so much would be far too complicated. 
   
  However, when a friend starts dating Iris’ abusive ex and drags her back into her life, Barrett is the one to sweep in and help. As Iris faces the scars from her past, Barrett reveals her own, and, with growing understanding between them, they must confront whether avoiding love is worth it or whether, just maybe, their person has been sitting across from them all these years.

  WREN 
  Moms are good at one thing: the guilt trip. It’s the only reason I’m at the funeral of a man I’ve never had anything to do with. 
  I’ll show up, make her happy, and get out. 
  At least that’s what I think until I learn daddy dearest has left me a crap load of money and the obligation to learn about the family business. All from his eldest son who looks nothing like the rest of us. 
  Darcy is the only Ritcherson who doesn’t treat me like the bastard son that I am. He helps me learn, pushes me to be better, and as we work together, we grow closer. For a gazillionaire with a media empire at his fingertips, he’s surprisingly humble. 
  And sweet. 
  And saying things he shouldn’t be saying. 
  The thing is, Mom swears she was never a mistress. Swears she was the only one Dad was seeing when she fell pregnant with me. But with Darcy only a few weeks older, there’s no way that can be the case. 
  Unless … 
  Unless the things he whispers when he thinks I’m not listening mean something. The guilt in his eyes when he looks at me would make sense. 
  If Darcy isn’t my father’s biological child, he’s not the Ritcherson heir. 
  I am. 
  And everything Darcy holds dear should be mine.
