The virtual world of Barliona is a place of rest and entertainment - but not for everyone. It has become a survival arena for Daniel Mahan after he was sentenced to eight years in its virtual jail. Mahan has been through it all: the back-breaking work in the mines, betrayal by other prisoners, and finally, the retrial which has released him into Barliona's common world. What more could one want? Mahan could have kept a low profile and enjoyed relative freedom while serving the rest of his time.

In the Old Country, they called them the Gentry: ancient spirits of the land, magical, amoral, and dangerous. When the Irish emigrated to North America, some of the Gentry followed...only to find that the New World already had spirits of its own, called manitou and other such names by the Native tribes. Now generations have passed, and the Irish have made homes in the new land, but the Gentry still wander homeless on the city streets. Gathering in the city shadows, they bide their time and dream of power.

Ich hatte nur einen kleinen Spaziergang geplant. Einen kurzen Abstecher in das unheimliche Waldgebiet, das ich von meinem wunderlichen Onkel geerbt hatte. Ich konnte ja nicht ahnen, dass dieser riesige, uralte Wald einige sehr finstere Geheimnisse bereithielt, die in unserer Welt gar nicht existieren durften. Und ganz bestimmt hatte ich nicht mit den drei einschüchternden, gehörnten Kreaturen gerechnet, die gar nicht daran dachten, mich wieder gehen zu lassen. Sie hatten nämlich mein Geheimnis gewittert: Meine Jungfräulichkeit.

What were the chances of running into my mate the first time I visited the human world? Almost none. And yet, there he was, with sparkling blue eyes, brightly painted nails, a wide smile, and a sassy as fuck mouth. There was no way I was dropping the ball on this, but it wasn't as easy as asking him out, even though he'd left me his number on my coffee cup. Being a supernatural in the human world was tough, but bringing a human into your world? Yeah, I was going to need some help.

When the world of the Faeries began to collapse, they sought refuge in the only place they could. That salvation lay in the hope of resurrection and rebirth. The Ancient One spread the souls of the Faerie across the Universe, placing them as seeds that would grow into mighty Dungeons, each a potential location for their people to be renewed. No one on Earth was prepared for Dungeons to start popping up and causing technology to degrade. It was something they were going to have to adjust too, because Earth would never be the same.

Dans une Double Breytain en plein bouleversement industriel, l'effervescence règne autour du manaschiste, combustible fossile dont l'utilisation révolutionne le monde en cette fin de XIXe siècle. Au cœur du duché de "Heaven Forest", peu importent les mutations sur la population engendrée par l'exploitation de ce minerai, les autorités ont d'autres priorités, telle la sécurité du port où la mafia sévit. Ainsi, quand le cadavre d'un inconnu est retrouvé mutilé près des docks, on confie l'affaire - certes singulière, mais de faible importance - à l'inspecteur détective Rhys Overlake, arrivé le jour même en ville.

The Alehouse at the End of the World is an epic comedy set in the 16th century, where bawdy Shakespearean love triangles play out with shapeshifting avian demigods and a fertility goddess, drunken revelry, bio-dynamic gardening, and a narcissistic, bullying crow, who may have colluded with a foreign power.
