The Changeling's Fortune

"Deirdre always thought she was a human—until her destructive faerie magic was unlocked. Seventeen-year-old Deirdre leaves the orphanage behind to study in Neo-London, a city teeming with conflict between humans and Fae. She crosses paths with two brothers, Iain and James Callaghan. Iain is a soldier in the Iron Guard trying to keep his broken family together. Fourteen-year-old James is fascinated by faeries and plans to run away to find his disappeared mother. After Deirdre develops uncontrollable magical abilities, she becomes the target of their father: Alan Callaghan, an extremist general who drains faeries’ magic to fuel weapons of war. When he frames her for a treasonous crime, she and James escape together. Iain intends to bring his brother home... and capture Deirdre at all costs. Readers of Holly Black’s The Darkest Part of the Forest and classic folklore and fairy tales will enjoy this coming-of-age series filled with epic adventure, humor, and clean slow burn romance."

On the Luck of an Irish Sailor: An Illustrated Story with Songs, Second Edition

"A young Irish sailor cast adrift in the sea. A mermaid princess and Irish luck save him from drowning. This adventurous tale owes its inspiration to stories Mike Mirabella heard as a little boy. His sizeable Italian clan swapped such stories during family dinners at the kitchen table. 'My grandpa and uncles would tell tales of fishing the waters off the coast of California and up through the inland passages of Alaska. I recall Grandpa Angelo telling of the scary times, when he was a cabin boy of 12 and was captured by pirates while working on the tall ships”. And then there was the never-ending argument between my grandpa and Uncle Cam: “What was that strange creature they caught off the coast of Alaska; a mermaid or a merman?' I was (and still am) that wee lad in our story, sitting wide-eyed, half-believing, yet never tiring of hearing those wonder-filled stories told by those salty, old jacks.' Using the rhyming style of a pirate in an Irish pub, our sailor spins his yarn about seeing the slap of a mermaid's tail during a mighty storm. 'On the Luck of an Irish Sailor' is a beautiful tale of adventure on the high seas. In a story that's been passed down for generations, author Mike Mirabella takes us on a magical experience deep beneath the ocean. Could it have happened? Did it happen? Folklore - that's the feeling sparked by the illustrations by illustrator Amy O'Hanlon. She uses hues of blues, grays, and browns to depict the fierce storm accurately. On other pages, O'Hanlon uses beige and brown tones to create the illusion of an older picture book-like classic story that's been around for years. Enjoy the bonus song sheets and sing along with this ‘mostly’ true story of adventure and redemption, in 'On the Luck of an Irish Sailor.'"

"In the style of Indiana Jones, the adventures of Lawrence of Arabia, and the mysteries of Dan Brown. The Great War erupts across the known world, pitting empires against nations. The Middle Eastern desert becomes a battlefield, as the Ottoman Empire battle against the pressing British Forces. A reporter, a spy, an archaeologist, are all proper descriptions of Marion by the age of 18. He ran away from home after his mother passed away, seeking to walk in the footsteps of Sir Richard Francis Burton, and he did, both literally and figuratively. Traveling with the Imperial Camel Corp deep into enemy territory he discovers a history and a secret dating back centuries. The myths of Saladin, Sinan, Assassins, Templars hide a truth of an ancient war.
