"With this engrossing urban fantasy, Ringle delivers a queer fairy tale as electrifying as it is tender"—Publishers Weekly “Lush and imaginative—an epic fantasy for a new generation, full of love, vengeance, redemption, and forgiveness.”—Pam Stucky, author of The Universes Inside the Lighthouse Awakening the handsome prince is supposed to end the fairy tale, not begin it. But the Highvalley witches have rarely done things the way they’re supposed to. On the north Pacific island of Eidolonia, hidden from the world by enchantments, Prince Larkin has lain in a magical sleep since 1799 as one side of a truce between humans and fae. That is, until Merrick Highvalley, a modern-day witch, discovers an old box of magic charms and cryptic notes hidden inside a garden statue. Experimenting with the charms, Merrick finds himself inside the bower where Larkin lies, and accidentally awakens him. Worse still, releasing Larkin from the spell also releases Ula Kana, a faery bent on eradicating humans from the island. With the truce collapsing and hostilities escalating throughout the country, Merrick and Larkin form an unlikely alliance and become even unlikelier heroes as they flee into the perilous fae realm on a quest to stop Ula Kana and restore harmony to their island.

Imagine being in a world where the stars in the night sky are as an upside-down bowl spanning from horizon to horizon, and you are at the center, in your crushed jeep. Alone. Crow and a Red Feather is a story about survival, love, and courage, and about beating the odds. Written in a style that is both lyrical and evocative. As it opens, an African crow looks down on this scene in the Namibian desert. Readers can smell and taste the blood and gasoline, and feel an overwhelming thirst as a woman staggers out into the desert with a concussion and broken ribs. She is befriended by the trickster crow, and by an old gray-coated, yellow toothed baboon - a friend that she believes will offer up his life if a predator comes to take her down. Woven into this beautiful and true parable are life's lessons learned under the most life-threatening, heartbreaking and poignant situations. It inspires you, and will change the way you look at your own life.
