What does one do when a small cephalopod decides to make a nest in your cup of tea? Hieronymus Jones is a peculiar boy with a spectacular mind. Extraordinarily intelligent, he has secrets, dark and deadly, wonderful and pure. Secrets of hidden worlds and lost civilizations, ones that were not entirely human. Secrets of magic. When Hieronymus sees Gertrude Green for the first time, something tells him that she has secrets too. Together, they discover a connection, one that extends far deeper than either could have imagined. A connection that just might save the world. Tea-dwelling squids, mysterious pendants, and school bullies are one thing. However, when an army of maliciously malformed unpleasantness threatens to tear the two young friends apart, it’s clear the universe is against Hieronymus and Gertrude simply hiding away in the belltower to share their lunch in peace. Will they overcome all the obstacles in their way? The first book in an urban fantasy romance series, awash with bleeding-edge technology, magic, humor, and hideous tentacle-laden, Lovecraftian nightmares. Start reading now to enter Hiero and Gerty’s world today.

Hieronymus Jones and Gertrude Green, embark on their greatest adventure... since the last one. What do those glyphs carved into millennia old rock mean? What is the ancient mystery the island protects? Why must the hideous slime covered, viciously mutated, uproariously evil, tentacle covered monsters be sooooo obnoxious? Hiero and Gerty have always kept a part of themselves hidden, afraid the truth would drive others away but in a sea of secrets, can their most unusual friendship survive the things they dare not reveal? Hiero and Gerty will seek the answers to these questions and will also ask the most difficult question of all... Are we really just friends? Return to a world of wild magic, hidden creatures and high technology. Return to a world where not everyone is what they appear to be.

She isn’t human, he is. Can they ever be friends? Can they ever be more? From the moment Winnifred raised her long elegant ears to their friendliest position, plastered a wide smile across her softly furred face, and greeted her new class, everything went straight to crap. As the first Yokai to ever attend an all-human school, she expected the intolerance... though she never expected every member of her class to be a worthless bag of dank teenage farts and bad attitude. The one exception to the worst group of students to ever belch their way into a classroom was Jexa, a human boy, beautiful and sad with an unfortunate past and a very unusual name, a Yokai name. They were impossibly different but could a hidden act of kindness and an origami leaf be enough to spark a forbidden love? Set in a vibrant world where she is seen as less than human, and he is at the forefront of a conflict that will probably get them both killed. Together they will fight for their fractured world... and each other.

A shadow is falling over the island, one that threatens to tear apart two exclusive best friends... figuratively and literally. Will their young hearts be ground to a fine paste under the uncaring boot heel of far too many people, things and monsters who should really be doing something more constructive than pooping all over Hiero and Gerty's good time? The Mayor and his sociopathic whack-job of a son are bad enough but even their unfortunate levels of jerk-ness can't compete with the thing that has just clawed its way into the bowels of the island. Will Gerty ever get to ask Hiero her most important question? New secrets and enemies are revealed, new feelings are realized and hope is fought for and lost. Return to a world of magic, hidden civilizations, impossibly advanced technology, and far too many blonde little snots running around with sharp objects. A world where Hiero and Gerty will be forced to remember something they never thought they would be forced to endure again. What it feels like to be alone. The third in the Hieronymus Jones series of YA fantasy romance books.

Shaped by the poet’s long view of history, these beautiful lamenting poems take sudden bracing plunges into close-up views of our apocalypse Little Elegies for Sister Satan presents indelibly beautiful new poems by Michael Palmer, “the foremost experimental poet of his generation, and perhaps of the last several generations” (citation for The Academy of American Poets’ Wallace Stevens Award). Grappling with our dark times and our inability to stop destroying the planet or to end our endless wars, Palmer offers a counterlight of wit (poetry was dead again / they said again), as well as the glow of wonder. In polyphonic passages, voices speak from a decentered place, yet are rooted in the whole history of culture that has gone before: “When I think of ‘possible worlds,’ I think not of philosophy, but of elegy. And impossible worlds. Resistant worlds.” In the light of day perhaps all of this will make sense. But have we come this far, come this close to death, just to make sense?
