The complete series in a single offering! Ezekiel Zane spent a hundred and fifty years as the most dangerous man in the Fae Wilds. He retired two years ago. Then a girl shows up with an artifact that shouldn't exist, old enemies start moving in the shadows, and Zane is reminded that when you've been the apex predator for a century and a half, retirement is just a word.

Deep in the elbow skin of the Fae Wilds, far from the teeming fortress of the Goblin King and the glittering palace of the King and Queen of the Elves, there lies a forgotten hideaway of crumbling single-wides and rusty Airstreams. A lonely clan of beautiful women, clad in tube tops, overall shorts, and tacky Asian-print house-dresses, yearn for a man who can unstop their sewer lines and get the internet working again. Torn from his mundane life on Earth, Colton Winchester could be that man.

In the magic lands of the Fae Wild, the Goblin King's virility is the lifeblood of the realm. But an insidious curse has put the kingdom on the precipice of a population panic. Enter Thomas Stone: architect, engineer, and unknowing half-blood heir to the goblin throne. Whisked away to a world where baby-making makes the world go round, Thomas finds himself in a pickle thicker than goblin stew. Birth rates are dropping faster than a fairy on a bad flight path, and it’s up to Thomas to save the fae from themselves.

I was having the perfect day when I suddenly found myself on the wrong side of an interdimensional portal. Instead of a weekend in wine country, I wound up in a trailer park that seemed stuck in the 1980s and filled with... goblin women? By the way, since when are goblins real? And why are the women so hot?

His solution to all of it: throw a Zone Faire. Games, monster trucks, a joust, friendly competition, and absolutely zero drama. That last part is not going to happen. Mrs. McGillicuddy has declared war on Jolene the Wasp Queen, the assassin is not going to wait for the pie-eating contest, and someone is apparently getting married. The harem keeps growing. The LitRPG progression keeps delivering. The chaos has fully committed to being unhinged, and this installment is the most bonkers one yet—which is saying something.

In the book, originally published in 1994, Adams challenges stereotypes to present a view of World War II that avoids the simplistic extremes of both glorification and vilification. The Best War Ever charts the complex diplomatic problems of the 1930s and reveals the realities of ground combat: no moral triumph, it was in truth a brutal slog across a blasted landscape. Adams also exposes the myth that the home front was fully united behind the war effort, demonstrating how class, race, gender, and age divisions split Americans.

Nick, Salma, Grace, Moira, and Tiffany. Three 'Chosen Ones', a talking slime...and a regular guy. Or so everyone thinks. Trained in the Fae Wilds, all evidence points to Nick being little more than an average hunter of the supernatural. Faced with (apparent) aliens and (apparent) bigfoots (big-feet?), he will find himself embroiled in a conflict that is both weirder and more deadly than any the team have faced. And the Path of Blood and Shadow will be revealed for the first time...

Getting used to living in a new city can be difficult for anyone. When you're a giant bird, it's a little bit more than just difficult. For Niko, adjusting to city life is only just the beginnings of his troubles in Greenleaf. Deciding whether he can truly trust the people around him is only the beginning. With Niko becoming an adventurer and embarking on The Pilgrimage in order to gain power faster, he's going to need to keep his wits about him if he wants to keep his feathers attached. Though, that's easier said than done with conspiring nobility and secrecy abound.

Many Americans, argues Michael C. C. Adams, tend to think of the Civil War as more glorious, less awful, than the reality. In Living Hell, Adams tries a different tack, clustering the voices of myriad actual participants on the firing line or in the hospital ward to create a virtual historical reenactment. Neither film nor reenactment can fully capture the hard truth of the four-year conflict. Living Hell presents a stark portrait of the human costs of the Civil War and gives listeners a more accurate appreciation of its lasting consequences.
