Fables meets The Fisher King in this dark, magical realist tale about a mysterious young homeless woman, an enterprising engineer with a troubled past, and a dangerous new breed of Fae, ravaged by climate change and furious with the human race. A motley collection of disturbing mythological creatures have started to stake out the land of those who damaged them—and the planet—and they aren’t backing down. When Poe, an entrancing drifter and self-proclaimed changeling demands that Demond build a park to appease them, he first worries about her grasp on reality, and then, along with his family, his own. Soon, he—and the reader—must question the rationality of our entire species as Demond struggles to save his city… and maybe even the world. But are we past the point of no return? “Far-out fantasy and brutal environmental reality collide in the finest work yet from Devin Grayson, whose sophisticated storytelling is perfectly paired with the outrageously lovely visuals of Yana Adamovic. Very highly recommended.”- Brian K. Vaughan (Saga, Y, the Last Man) “Rewild is a profound look at what humanity has lost in the name of progress. It's beautiful, powerful, and through some magic trick simultaneously grim and hopeful.” - Mark Waid (Kingdom Come) “ ...a timely examination of humanity’s relationship with the natural world, woven into a glorious fantasy adventure pitting man against Faerie.” - Mark Buckingham (Fables)

Devin Rose was raised atheistically but underwent a radical conversion to Protestant Christianity before ultimately becoming Catholic. This book was written after ten years of reflection and dialogue with Protestants and Catholics on the key issues that divide them. Rose presents a series of intelligible and compelling arguments for the Catholic Church's claim to be the Church that Christ founded. He considers the strongest Protestant responses to his arguments and offers straightforward rebuttals to them. The papacy, Ecumenical councils, the canon of Scripture, the Protestant Reformers, and the sacraments are just a few of the many topics covered in illuminating detail. Catholics will learn to defend their faith, and Protestants will be challenged to answer the toughest questions about the roots of their beliefs.

National Bestseller: An “astute and riveting” novel of a Dutch teenager thrust into the dangers and moral perils of his country’s Nazi occupation (The New York Times). In the summer of 1939, fourteen-year-old Jacob Koopman and his older brother, Edwin, enjoy lives of prosperity and quiet contentment. Many of the residents in their small Dutch town have some connection to the Koopman lightbulb factory, and locals hold the family in high esteem. On days when they aren’t playing with friends, Jacob and Edwin help their Uncle Martin on his fishing boat in the North Sea, where German ships have become a common sight. But conflict still seems unthinkable, even as the boys’ father naively sends his sons to a Hitler Youth camp in an effort to secure German business for the factory. When war breaks out, Jacob’s world is thrown into chaos. The Boat Runner follows Jacob over the course of four years, through the forests of France and the stormy beaches of England, and deep within the secret missions of the German Navy, where he is confronted with the moral dilemma that will change his life—and his life’s mission—forever. Thrillingly written, The Boat Runner tells the little-known story of the young Dutch boys who were thrown into the Nazi campaign, as well as the brave boatmen who risked everything to give Jewish refugees safe passage. Through one boy’s harrowing tale of personal redemption, it reveals the power of people’s stories and voices to shine light through our darkest days, until only love prevails. “An ambitious coming of age story . . . Murphy’s debut novel is a purposely limited view of war, as was The Red Badge of Courage, but strong characters and compelling narrative convey the impact well beyond one family. An impressive debut.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
