Reprise – Paperback
RepriseShe’s got a doctorate and nothing to lose
He’s got a time machine and a hot wife
Which is deadlier, love or science?A caustically funny time-travel romance that blends dark academia with with timey-wimey complexity, D&D with S&M, and leaves the reader wondering if the protagonist is a murderer or victim — or both — Reprise is the novel that would have been written by the love-child of Jane Austen and Douglas Adams, had they been able to transcend the barriers of time.
Most people play ‘F**k, Marry, Kill’ as a game of hypotheticals, but Eddy Courant’s life takes an unconventional path when Dr. François Gagnon offers Eddy a postdoc position studying time loops. This unexpected chance to revive her career pulls Eddy from a deep depression. She loses herself to the thrill of science, and to the simpler pleasures in life – like flirting with her boss, seducing his wife, and playing Dungeons and Dragons with their son.
That is, until the men funding the research demand ever-more ground-breaking data to justify keeping her on board – after all, they have a war to start.
Eddy is plunged into ever darker and more violent acts to appease the funders. So long as she’s employed, she doesn’t have to face the consequences of replaying countless deaths – including her own. But keeping track of shifting timelines while her own mental state deteriorates means losing the ability to tell real life from its shadow.
If you like your pop culture nerdy, your queers messy, and your time travel criminally clever, this book is for you.
Cascade – Paperback
Cascade, Book I of The Sleep of ReasonRachel A. Rosen
What does magic want?
A generation has passed since the Cascade transformed the world, smashing the old political order and infesting the wilderness with demons and shriekgrass. As with the climate crisis that caused it, emergent magic proved lucky for some, a disaster for many others, and a source of hope and dread for everyone else.
In Ottawa, a scandal-plagued government clings to power, kept afloat by the manipulations of its precognitive rainman, Ian Mallory. But when his predictions signal only catastrophe ahead, the magic-loathing photojournalist Tobias Fletcher, land rights activist Jonah Augustine, his ex-wife, climate scientist Blythe Augustine, and emoji-spell wielding intern Sujay Krishnamurthy must overcome ideology and bureaucracy to save a future from a present whose agenda spells only doom.
Black Grass – Paper
Black GrassCarl Dow
In 1866, as three civilizations collide on the high plains of North America,
two women in love with the same man arrive at a strange accommodation …
Facing an invasion from the south, can Gabriel Dumont, War Cheif of the White Horse Plains Métis, forge an alliance between the formidable Sioux, now on the warpath, and his small band of Métis hunters?
In an epic tale of love and lust, loyalty and betrayal, the outnumbered Métis must draw on their courage and experience as buffalo hunters to defend their homeland from the richly-funded American Party that is determined to expand the borders of the United States from the warm waters of the Bay of Mexico to the Arctic lair of the Wolf Wind.
The Old Man’s Last Sauna – Paperback
The Old Man’s Last SaunaCarl Dow
From odes to loves found and loves lost, to a clear-eyed look at what it takes to destroy a strong man; from the web of love between a mother and a son, to a father’s understanding of the difference between his child’s imagination and the lies that lurk in the minds of the boy’s grandparents …
Carl Dow offers stories that will move, amuse and even shock with their subtle explorations of the human spirit.
The Old Man’s Last Sauna introduces a powerful voice for the 21st century, one born of the turmoil, violence and struggle for justice and understanding that marked so much of the 20th.
