A Royal HuntA Hidden ProphecyA Destiny UnveiledFae Princess Avalynn Stromm is next in line for the throne and will one day rule all of Faevenly. But instead of fussing over ballgowns and suffering through palace politics, she'd rather be out exploring and hunting. Or, better yet, competing in the highly desired Summit Range Hunt alongside the realm's greatest warriors.Mateo Vela is a lowborn half-fae living in the dreaded Sublands. He longs for a better life where his family doesn't have to struggle for necessities. So when the High King of Faevenly opens his prestigious hunt to competitors from his province, he has his chance to change his fate at last. But whether that destiny ends in glory or death is yet to be seen.Before the hunt even begins, whisperings of a long forgotten prophecy begin to circulate, and Mateo is at the center of it. And when he and Avalynn are thrust into the dangerous hunt, they'd just as soon have each other's heads than work together...until they are threatened by a common foe and discover there's much more at stake than crossing the finish line first.Secrets emerge, long-buried rivalries resurface, and Avalynn and Mateo must form an unlikely alliance if they are to make it out of the hunt alive. Not to mention the undeniable pull growing between them neither one saw coming.

Robert Ellis sees images--a hula-hoop glittering in the center lane of a Utah highway, a soldier kneeling in a field of Afgan poppies. It is 2009 when the young photojournalist arrives in the Republic of Nicoya, a backwater nation in Central America, to sell a single exposure to a private collector. Disillusioned by hi profession, and perhaps the ethos of his country, Ellis leaves behind a moment in American history overshadowed by war and recession, carrying the hope of receiving recognition for his word. Instead, he finds himself stalked by an ex-CIA counterinsurgent as he's inexorably drawn into a violent crime network. Beasts of the Field is a novel marked by visions and trauma, a harrowing ride through animal and human nature."When artistic ambition leads a young photographer into the dark underworld of dogfighting, a plot of gruesome vengeance is set into motion. Alex Webb Wilson draws from the traditions of Cormac McCarthy, Horace McCoy, and Paul Bowles to give us a singular novel of vivid, hallucinatory violence. Brutal, Beautiful, and damn near impossible to put down."-Lee Clay Johnson, author of Nitro Mountain"An engrossing novel filled with political and psychological insight. Get it!"-Kirkus ReviewsAlex Webb Wilson Renders his characters as complete, familiar, frightening worlds--each hurtling toward a massive collision. In the debris, the reader is left with the detritus of our world, both terrible and true.-Kimball Taylor, author of The Coyote's Bicycle

Life is quiet, just as Bren likes it. But Clark feels like he's stagnating. Bren isn't looking for love when a greenhouse customer dumps water all over her. But Elodie's cute and bouncy and, it turns out, a folklorist at the local college and has a special interest in plants and their stories. It seems like a perfect match. Clark might have a tiny crush on a patron at the library, but he's never going to say anything. But when Jasper, that very patron, asks for Clark's assistance on a research project, Clark can't say no. To Jasper or the project; Jasper's researching local "ghost trails". And Clark is a bit of a believer. But trauma and grief are slippery things, and getting through it isn't simple or easy. Maybe love needs to find a way to help them both heal.
