Now Available + Giveaway: WILDERNESS

Now available! Our steamy-looking reissue of Dennis Danvers's WILDERNESS, a novel of love, transformation, and werewolves originally written nearly twenty years ago.  We think it's great, but we're not the only ones:

"Danvers does for werewolves what Anne Rice did for vampires." -- Locus

"One of the most unusual stories I've read . . . . I was well-hooked." -- Anne McCaffrey

"Danvers brings romance, lyricism, and human warmth to a hoary monster cliche." -- New York Times Book Review

"This is not a horror novel or science fiction tale but a believable, compassionate, and thought-provoking exploration of the character of human nature . . . Danvers offers an intelligent, canny, vivacious, and articulate protagonist in Alice . . . . The suspense is irresistible." -- San Francisco Chronicle

"A remarkable book . . . sensuous and erotic, compelling and deeply serious." -- Ruth Rendell

An oldie but goodie that just came to our attention:

The DM of the Rings

(Description from the link:

Lord of the Rings is more or less the foundation of modern D&D. The latter rose from the former, although the two are now so estranged that to reunite them would be an act of savage madness. Imagine a gaggle of modern hack-n-slash roleplayers who had somehow never been exposed to the original Tolkien mythos, and then imagine taking those players and trying to introduce them to Tolkien via a D&D campaign.)
