Wolf of Withervale - Book One of the Noss Saga
Hardcover with Dusk Jacket, 596 pages, 36,95 EUR (Cover by Ilse Grot, maps and illustrations by Joaquín Baldwin)
Lago was only a child when the shapeshifter entrusted the wolf-like mask to his care - an artifact so powerful that it could come to shape the entire world of Noss.
Now that he is coming of age, Lago is becoming ever more fearful of the ominous relic’s influence, of the empire who has scented its trail and is coming after it. Coming after him.
Aided by his best friend, an enigmatic scout, and his trusty dog, Lago seeks refuge in the vastness of the Heartpine Dome. The eighty-mile-wide structure had remained sealed for centuries, safeguarding more than mere secrets. Now that the dome’s entrails are stirring, the mysteries of the long-vanished Miscam tribes are coming to light, and the shapeshifting animal spirits are making their return.
Powers untold hide behind the blinkless eyeholes of the canid mask, powers that could tip the balance in the war. Lago is barely beginning to learn how to wield the dark visage, but he can already feel its potential.
… And he can feel a different change coming, deep in his marrow.
Riveting in scope and worldbuilding, and exquisitely illustrated by the author, this tale of transformation and self-discovery is filled with unabashed wonder and a lust for places unknown. A profoundly queer adventure that explores sexuality, our connections to other species, unconventional kinds of love, and the very nature of consciousness. An ambitious, sweeping saga. As epic as it is queer.
Winner of the Ursa Major Award 2019 for Best Anthropomorphic Novel.
Masks of the Miscam - Book Two of the Noss Saga
Hardcover with Dusk Jacket, 696 pages, 38,95 EUR (Cover by Ilse Grot, maps and illustrations by Joaquín Baldwin)
Withervale burns. After a terrifying encounter with the Red Stag, Lago-Sterjall and the wayfarers venture to Zovaria, but all they find in the Pink Capital is betrayal. Chased by enemies within and without, they take refuge in a land of magical beauty: the Moordusk Dome.
A mischievous and seductive caracal prince lurks in the domed land of felids, and he has set his eyes on Lago. But Lago's heart beats to the tune of the mountains, yearning for the lover he was forced to leave behind.
The adventurers embark on a search for one of the missing animal spirits, the wise Mamóru. The ancient mammoth may hold the key to unlock the knowledge of the distant past, the only hope to defeat the growing army of the Negian Empire.
Like treasure chests waiting to be opened, more domes await, holding within them as many riches as dangers. The wayfarers travel on, in a quest to uncover the very consciousness of nature. Noss is waiting for them.
MASKS OF THE MISCAM is the second installment of the Noss Saga, an epic LGBTQ+ fantasy series.
