Sinopsis

Richard Quinn welcomes his readers with a warm portrait of southwest New York State's majestic landscape, which is home to Ben Bowden, his wife Angela, and their two children.The Bowden family is likable, imperfect, and relatable. Their story is a personal and poignant tale told through the eyes and narrative of young daughter Sydney whose storytelling allows readers confidante-level access to seemingly ordinary lives nestled deep within the woodlands of the Catskill Mountains watershed.When a single mother and her troubled son move in and upend their quiet community, the Bowden clan's outwardly idyllic existence slowly finds itself facing hurdles. Surfacing family dysfunction, mental instability, bullying, harassment, sexual assault, and a traumatic death all threaten the preservation of life and family security as they know it.Their efforts to regain a sense of normalcy sheds light on both their resourcefulness and limited life experience in this coming of age tour de force.

    Fundevogel is a haunting Grimm fairy tale of devotion, transformation, and quiet peril. 
    Found as an infant high in the branches of a forest tree, Fundevogel is taken in by a forester and raised alongside his daughter, Lina. The two children grow inseparable, bound by a loyalty that endures even when their lives are threatened. When betrayal forces them to flee, Lina’s quick thinking and magical transformations protect them again and again—turning love itself into their means of survival. 
    Told with the stark beauty and moral clarity characteristic of the Brothers Grimm, Fundevogel explores the power of fidelity, the danger of hidden cruelty, and the strange mercy found in fairy-tale justice. The story unfolds with simplicity and tension, its transformations symbolic rather than extravagant, and its resolution both unsettling and deeply satisfying. 
    Narrated with warmth and restraint, this audiobook preserves the timeless atmosphere of early folk storytelling.

    In a world breathing its last, magic is a forgotten song. The Animus, the vibrant soul of reality, is fraying into nothingness, leaving only a smothering silence and the taste of ash. Here, in the dying heart of Aethelgard, a desperate rebellion prepares for its final, hopeless stand against a self-proclaimed god who promises salvation through absolute extinction. 
    Leah Pullman, the prophesied Soul Weaver, is a living relic—the world’s last hope, with no power left to offer. At her side is Evan Watson, a pragmatic commander whose unwavering faith in her is his greatest strength. But when faced with her inevitable death, he will choose a solitary, damned path. To save the woman he loves, Evan must seek a forbidden alliance with an ancient, cosmic hunger, embracing a power of pure unmaking that will cost him his honor, his allies, and his very soul. 
    As their final, desperate assault on the Obsidian Spire is revealed to be the very trap that will ensure their enemy’s ascension, two divergent paths to salvation emerge. One must become a monster to save his world, while the other must unravel the fabric of her own being to save its soul. This epic fantasy is a gripping tale of action, adventure, and devastating sacrifice, where the only thing more terrifying than the enemy is the price of victory.

    When is a curse not a curse? How does a house become a prison? Why is a reformed murderer the only hope for a far-too-easily injured boy? 
     
     
     
    Athelas has always been opposed to having a small, possibly-cursed Australian boy in the kitchen. When that small boy disappears, however, and Athelas's housekeeper Camellia strongly encourages him to do something about it, he finds himself wavering. 
     
     
     
    YeoWoo wants nothing to do with the disappearing Harrow, cursed or otherwise. Caught up with her own investigation and preparations for revenge, she would prefer her housemates to remain unseen and unheard. Entirely absent is even better. 
     
     
     
    But Athelas and YeoWoo have something in common: they both tread warily when it comes to their housekeeper, who runs the house with a tea-scented, magic-laced rod of iron. Camellia holds the key to Athelas's pretensions of reformation being accepted—and blames him for Harrow's disappearance. And she is determined to save Harrow, no matter what it takes. 
     
     
     
    Life as a reformed murderer would be so much easier if the process didn't include so much . . . reformation.

    Breckinridge Elkins is the roughest, toughest, fastest-shootin', hardest-fightin' feller in the Bear Creek settlement, and probably in the entire Humbolt Mountains. As he travels further from home, he single-handedly takes on outlaws, settles (and starts) feuds and tries his hand at romancing the girls. He also discovers a lot of strange customs among other folks, such as building houses out of boards and wearing clothes that ain't buckskins. Set in Nevada during the late 1800's, this collection of stories is a great rollicking romp through the American frontier as seen through the eyes of one of the most enjoyable characters created in the history of tall tales. (Summary by RK Wilcox)

    I walked in on my husband and heard three words no wife wants to hear. 
    "Let me explain." 
    Only... it's not what you think. Or... what anyone would think. 
    What I caught him doing... 
    What he wants... 
    I'm scared. 
    But a little fear is healthy, right? 
    The Man I Know is a married couple standalone. You won't find a third act break-up, babies in the epilogue or a ton of angst. Instead, this story centers around a happily married couple (with children) who discover, after years of marriage, that one of them needs more. Low-angst and high steam, the plot centers around deepening an already healthy relationship.
