Erin Law and her friends are Damaged Children. At least that is the label given to them by Maureen, the woman who runs the orphanage that they live in. Damaged, Beyond Repair because they have no parents to take care of them. But Erin knows that if they care for each other they can put up with the psychologists, the social workers, the therapists -- at least most of the time. Sometimes there is nothing left but to run away, to run for freedom. And that is what Erin and two friends do, run away one night downriver on a raft. What they find on their journey is stranger than you can imagine, maybe, and you might not think it's true. But Erin will tell you it is all true. And the proof is a girl named Heaven Eyes, who sees through all the darkness in the world to the joy that lies beneath.

While still in their early stages of magic training, Daja, Briar, Tris, and Sandry find themselves in an unexpected battle to defend their school against the attacks of Priate Queen Pahua. Reprint.

First published in 1989 and taking place in downtown Toronto, one of the earliest of the modern urban fantasies, Gate of Darkness, Circle of Light is the story of a fight against encroaching darkness by a developmentally handicapped young woman, a street musician with no idea of his potential, a bag-lady who's tired of picking up the pieces, and an adept of the light. Mixing actual Toronto ghost-stories with traditional Faire, a police procedural, and a cat, Gate of Darkness, Circle of Light opened a gate at street level to the urban fantasy that followed. REVIEWS "A mentally disadvantaged young woman who sees what other people don't, a street musician, a social worker, and a bag-lady join forces with an 'Adept of the Light' to fight the encroaching darkness that stalks the streets of modern Toronto. In a departure from the 'strict' fantasy of Child of the Grove (LJ 5/15/88) and The Last Wizard, Huff's real-world fantasy presents an enlightened, compassionate view of the forgotten heroes of urban society. Highly recommended." --Library Journal

The MM paranormal series you didn't know you needed in your life. Noel's day could have turned out a whole lot better than it did as far as he was concerned. Betrayed by a trusted friend, captured by his enemy--the vampires--and chained naked to a wall in a cold, dark prison isn't his idea of a fun time. He knows he's as good as dead. You just don't rebel against the supes and think you're going to get away with it. And he caused one particular dangerous vampire and a lot of trouble and money. Only time will tell if they make his death quick and hopefully painless, or slow and extremely painful. Théoden, the Lord of District Five, has had his sights set on Noel from the moment the annoying human set fire to one of his very profitable businesses. Normally, he'd kill anyone who crossed him, but Noel has something special. Something that reminds Théoden of himself and he has plans for the handsome human. Plans and punishment, because he still needs to pay for pissing Théoden off. Reader Advisory: Stubborn mates, possessive alpha males, more kinks than you can count, and colorful language that may cause severe blushing. Adult content, graphic violence, and all kinds of sexual situations. Proceed with caution. 18+ mature readers only.

The story is told by Albert N. Wilmarth, an instructor of literature at Miskatonic University in Arkham. When local newspapers report strange things seen floating in rivers during a historic Vermont flood, Wilmarth becomes embroiled in a controversy about the reality and significance of the sightings, though he sides with the skeptics. Wilmarth uncovers old legends about monsters living in the uninhabited hills who abduct people who venture or settle too close to their territory.
