  There’s nothing more cautionary than a fable. And nothing to fear more than fairy tales… 
  France, 1985. In the forests of Brittany, something dark is stirring. Women are going missing, turning up dead, with no clue as to what’s happened. But that’s not the strangest part. Because before dying, they’ve given birth. Only, when they disappeared a month previously, they weren’t pregnant. 
  It’s enough to catch Aicha’s attention and she drags Paul off to the north, to find out the truth behind the women’s disappearances. But what they discover is beyond anything they could ever have expected. Like something straight out of a fairy tale. With all the darkness and horror that contains. 
  There’s terror lurking in the depths of the trees' dark. And a question. What happens when two indestructible immortals collide with an unkillable evil? 
  It’s far from sure anyone will walk away unscarred. If anyone walks away at all… 
  An imPerfect Fable is a standalone adventure from the award-winning imPerfect Cathar series, darkly funny, gritty urban fantasy following a trio of immortal heretics. If you can’t wise-crack while death is on the line? Well… perhaps you’re not dying right…

  Darkstalker: Legend, Monster, or Mirror? reexamines one of fantasy’s most polarizing figures and asks a disquieting question: what if the scariest thing about him is how much of ourselves we can see in his story? Moving beyond simple “villain” or “tragic hero” labels, this book traces Darkstalker’s journey from gifted, wounded child to world-shaping threat, showing how prophecy, power, and pain slowly fuse into certainty—and how certainty turns into cruelty. 
   Through a mix of close reading and psychological reflection, it explores how families, tribes, and entire societies help create their own legends and monsters, and how animus magic becomes a metaphor for the ways we try to control life with talent, genius, or sheer force of will. Rather than delivering a final verdict, Darkstalker: Legend, Monster, or Mirror? invites readers to sit with the discomfort of complexity: to see how justice shades into vengeance, how fear dresses up as righteousness, and how the line between “that could never be me” and “under the right pressure, maybe it could” is thinner than we like to admit.
