Summary

World saved and invasion quelled, Raid and Eluria have every reason to breathe a sigh of relief and pat themselves on the back—but their work is far from over. Past mistakes must be rectified, old grievances must be settled, and most of all, an entire abandoned timeline still needs saving! With countless lives once again resting on their shoulders, the most powerful couple sets out into a ravaged world where everything they know only remains in tragic traces and bittersweet memories. Many problems await on the other side—from the devastated environment to the vicious empire coming after their heads—but surprisingly, the key to it all has already been by their side this entire time...in the form of a certain ordinary girl from the boonies!

    Rinsing Mũkami's Soul

    An incisive novel laying bare the contradictory societal response to gender, sex and redemption. Rinsing Mũkami's Soul looks at revenge as a powerful tool for reclamation when young Mũkami's carefully ordered life is cruelly thrust into scandal.

Njambi McGrath, award winning author of Through the Leopard's Gaze, delivers this stunning debut novel examining the validity of fury as response when a young Kenyan girl's mistakes in first love are ruthlessly held against her by a paternalistic society.

Mũkami is a young scholarship student at a prestigious boarding school. She has a clear path ahead of her, but a deceptive smile, a school expulsion and an impossible pregnancy see her well ordered life hurtling towards complete and utter disarray.

Facing disappointment from her family and finding that innocence is not a strong enough place from which to mount a defence, she declares revenge. This charged novel asks us to question why girls and women are often left to fight for justice from lonely places in societies that prefer them silenced.

    Set in the world of Hugo, Nebula, and World Fantasy Award nominee The Goblin Emperor, The Orb of Cairado offers an unlikely hero in historian Ulcetha Zhorvena. 
 
Five years ago, Ulcetha was studying at the University of Cairado, working his way toward becoming a scholar first-class in the Department of History. Then a prize artifact disappeared and Ulcetha, deftly framed, was kicked out. Now he works for a crooked importer, using his knowledge of elven history to write provenances for the fake artifacts Salathgarad sells. 
 
When the airship Wisdom of Choharo explodes, killing the emperor and three of his four sons, it takes with it Ulcetha's best friend, Mara Lilana. But Mara leaves behind a puzzle—the one thing Ulcetha can't resist. And the puzzle leads Ulcetha back to the Department of History . . . and maybe the chance to clear his name.

    Romeo and Juliet Keep Their Eyes...

    “Richard Engling knows Chicago’s famously chaotic and glorious storefront theater scene like the back of his hand. It's the perfect setting for absurd comic hi-jinx.”
 
– Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
 

 
In this hilarious follow-up to Give My Regards to Nowhere, Chicago director Dwayne Finnegan has another crack at the big time if only his production of Romeo and Juliet can shine. However, Dwayne shares rehearsal space with a psychedelic drug cult that believes Dwayne’s production is evil. The cult sabotages him. His actors rebel. His publicist gets entangled with a loan shark. Bones are broken, the production drops into chaos, Dwayne’s marriage hangs by a thread, but despite it all, the show must go on.
 

 
Praise for the first Dwayne Finnegan novel:
 
“As Carl Hiaasen does with his Florida-based satirical crime novels, Engling’s gloriously silly narrative allows his readers to witness how the sausage gets made, which isn't always pretty but is often eye-opening. Engling’s satire on storefront theatre is thoroughly entertaining from start to finish.”
 
– ChicagoOnStage.com
 

 
“The rollicking ride through the underbelly of the acting world and the determination of a man who sees his world fall apart and come back together in a new way as the show goes on will attract anyone interested in drama, theater, Chicago backdrops, or a drive to succeed against all odds.”
 
– Midwest Book Review
 

 
“very funny, briskly written, and often touching”
 
– Mark Larson, author of Ensemble: An Oral History of Chicago Theater
 

 
“A scrappy, big-hearted backstage comedy layered with mordant wit and full of a deep, abiding love for its characters, which is wholly appropriate for a story set in the scrappy, big-hearted world of Chicago theater.”
 
– Adam Langer, author of Cyclorama

    **A delicious standalone novel** 
Food, lies and second-chance love make for a delicious dish.  
So why can’t Leslie take a bite? 
When NYC investigative journalist Leslie Molina-Allen leaves town to care for her beloved Aunt Dot, she never expects to be tossed into the orbit of her first—and only—love, Chef Risto. Or end up working at his restaurant. 
For as long as Leslie can remember, food has been the enemy. Something to be mastered, not enjoyed—or so her mother says. And Risto’s unapologetic appetite for life is everything Leslie has spent years trying to forget. 
With a booming restaurant and a skyrocketing reputation, Chef Risto has everything he’s ever wanted. Except Leslie. She lost interest in him long ago—but still manages to haunt his dreams every night. So when she turns up to fill in for Dot, days become unbearable too. 
Amidst the rich aromas of Puerto Rican cuisine, Risto and Leslie must balance the pressures of love and ambition. But a well-fed woman is a revolutionary force, and some appetites can no longer be ignored… 
Steamy, emotional, and deeply resonant, What We Give Away is a slow-burn love story about breaking free, reclaiming joy, and finding the courage to live on your own terms.
