Robin Hood is given an incredible spin in this fast-paced, exciting adventure story by #1 Amazon bestselling author R.M. ArceJaeger. When circumstances force Robin of Locksley to flee her home, she is thrust into an outlaw life in Sherwood forest. Disguised as a man for protection, she soon finds herself at the center of a band of outcasts where her archery skills, integrity, and force of character propel her into a leadership role. With a secret to hide, a band to sustain, and a Sheriff hot on her trail, Robin will need all her courage and ingenuity if she is to survive. "The storytelling is solid, the research is thorough, the details are spot-on, and the skill is undeniable. . . . As Robin Hood retellings go, it's pretty much a bullseye." — PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous retell...this Robin gives young girls a role model that isn't dressed as the beautiful helpless princess. Honestly, I couldn't put my Kindle down." — Bookworm's Dinner "A powerful and credible tale. ArceJaeger's Robin is both relatable and intriguing." — Gold Country Times

MEAT AMERICA is an eye-opening and artery-closing tour of America's spirit of entrepreneurship, rebellion and positivity. It celebrates our collective American appetite for insurmountable odds, limitless aspiration, and immeasurable success. Though, some may just see it as a bunch of American icons fashioned out of animal products, which is totally cool too.

The Going and Goodbye is an examination of loss and leaving and the search for meaning in the memories that remain. Tracing a path through rural Ohio, the American south and small towns of Mexico, these stories breathe life into a marriage and its dissolution; find a voice that fears mortality then faces it; explores faith in the face of these losses; and ultimately reveals the power of love and letting go.

Poetry. In HIJITO--selected by Eduardo C. Corral as winner of the 2018 Broken River Prize--Carlos Andrés Gómez writes of brutality and beauty with the same urgency and with a truth that burns readily; it is a collection of survival instincts. As a vital and tender exploration and deconstruction of contemporary society, his poetry engages with America's ever-changing landscape and the ways in which race, gender, and violence coalesce. Called "powerful, truthful, and sublime" by Cornel West, Gómez's words are a necessary paean to hope and courage in the modern world. "One loss makes you feel all the other losses, writes Carlos Andrés Gómez in this searing and inquisitive collection. His attentiveness to language and to pain is unflinching. Craft and empathy are inseparable; lyrical pleasures resonate with tenderness and sorrow. The poems pull something usable from // the wreckage of performative masculinity, police brutality, and displacement. And what's usable from misery? Gómez's deft control of language--the syntax is nimble, the diction is zoetic--brings us close to the boundless resilience that helps us survive, change."--Eduardo C. Corral "Gómez makes an impressive debut in this collection, singing of family, bullets, survival and smoke. This hijito is a tiny growl / at first / that blossomed / into a wail."--Tyehimba Jess, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry "Striking, searching, and serious. Carlos Andrés Gómez poems often leap landscapes beyond the West and ask us to consider the history we have been taught, how we speak it and carry it in our bodies. There is an earned depth and urgency to Gómez as a poet."--Raymond Antrobus, Rathbones Folio Prize winner

Fiction. Deep in the mountains of British Columbia, across an unforgiving landscape, one man's pursuit of a fabled mountain lion leads him into the furthest reaches of himself. As he struggles to confront the wilderness surrounding him--from the baying hounds to the relentless northern snows--he journeys into his own haunted memories: a life of wild horses and ballet, fishing skiffs and blizzards, tropical seas and dolphins. Through wind, snow, and the depths of grief, he asks what price he is willing to exact on a world that ravages what we love, and whether redemption awaits those who learn to forgive. A tender story of love and a modern-day parable, The Dark Heart of Every Wild Thing, the debut novel from acclaimed poet Joseph Fasano, guides us into the deepest territories of the human heart. "Joseph Fasano has the heart and the ear and he puts them to magnificent use in THE DARK HEART OF EVERY WILD THING. By turns mournful and thrilling, this story, told in precise and glorious prose, traverses the wild heights of grief, vengeance, tenderness, and love. It pierces."--Sam Lipsyte "A father, a boy, and a mountain lion. If it sounds like the start of a parable, that's because THE DARK HEART OF EVERY WILD THING has wisdom to share. But that wisdom is complicated, surprising, and at times even vicious. What seems at first like a quiet book is actually quite fierce, not unlike the big cat at the center of its story. This elegiac novel is a moving meditation on grief, love, and obsession."--Erica Wright "Joseph Fasano is a wonderfully gifted writer. He writes evocatively, lyrically, and never fails to surprise us with his revelations and illuminations. His insights are deep, his delineation of character and place immensely satisfying. He gives us a story that keeps resonating long after we have finished reading."--Nicholas Christopher
