Book excerpt: Even the best intentions can bring down a mountain … Sent away for the summer, the Ivyweather sisters were promised a family vacation by their wealthy, indifferent parents. Two at-odds opposites — Constance an anxious society sweetheart and Ivory an adventure-struck rebel — the sisters aren’t sure what to make of the dangerously decayed town of Quixx and its creeping fog that never seems to lift. When Ivory disappears after a spat with her sister, Constance tracks her to the mountain, where the Ivyweathers learn the town’s hushed talk of monsters is more than just a rumor. There, the sisters meet Derrek, a dapper and talented astronomer who also happens to be a spider-like creature with a scientific mind, the best of intentions, and a tragic past. Together, they all must find a way to lift the dangerous fog that has ensnared the town and return Quixx’s long-lost stars. But they soon discover that something far more monstrous than beasts lurks in Quixx, and it’s poised to crush this sleepy mountain town, along with the dreams of those in it. Death and discarded memories haunt every corner of Quixx, but kinship, romance, and family — the one we choose — are at the heart of this cautiously optimistic, unabashedly queer modern monster story. About the Series Welcome to Brindlewatch — a world like ours from days gone by. Fast shiny cars, growing metropolises, and a war on the other side of the ocean with an enemy no one can see. Back at home, monsters, spirits, and the humans who get entangled with them populate the pages of the Brindlewatch Quintet — five individual, interconnected tales of mystery, romance, and ultimately, belonging. This is the newest YA fantasy series by beloved writer S.M. Beiko, award-winning author of the Realms of Ancient trilogy. It is notable for its charming and quirky tone and diverse cast of relatable characters. The series will begin with The Stars of Mount Quixx in spring 2023 and conclude with The Battle for Brindlewatch in 2027.

Book excerpt: After twenty-eight years of suffering the effects of a rape endured when she was seven-years-old, Madeline McVie shifts perspective from that of victim to warrior. Her father, who’d executed a nearly three decade campaign of revenge, is murdered at the hands of local elite. Fate casts Madeline into a role for which she’s wholly unprepared. Fortune favors the bold. Personnel from military NGOs, as well as law enforcement, come to Madeline’s aid. Together, they establish a militia whose stated purpose is the eradication of evil from their community. Criminals continue to ply those Madeline trusts with promises of wealth beyond meager circumstances. Financial stress, created by elite, controls the population. Possessing an agenda based in equality, brings forth residents willing to put lives and Earthly possessions at risk. Intellectual allies possess the knowledge to make their town fiscally prosperous; for the benefit of all. Wresting dominance from families who’ve controlled local abundance since 1947 proves a Herculean task. The movement started by William McVie and Curtis Thomas grows organically; based in Godly love for fellow humans. When citizens benefit equally from local resources, contentment follows. Madeline is a modern day tale of forces for good battling those possessed by evil. David versus Goliath. Robin Hood versus the Sheriff of Nottingham.

Drawn into his host’s charming, often contentious family circle, Hugo finds himself matching wits and words with the Duke’s eldest daughter, Lady Madeline. Striking, clever, and as sharp-tongued as she is sharp-witted, Madeline is the polar opposite of the placid, proper beauty Hugo intends to marry. So why can’t he get her out of his mind? And how is it that she can persuade him to attempt things he’s never tried before? As Advent yields to Christmas, Hugo’s future becomes far less predictable…and infinitely more exciting.
