Book Description
Explore the connection between people and places on the rugged shore of Lake Superior, the world’s largest freshwater lake. Conor Mihell offers a compelling image of Lake Superior’s Canadian shore through colourful personality sketches, adventure stories, and environmental accounts. Admire the kitschy decor of lighthouse cottager Maureen Robertson, a 76-year-old who spends six months of the year alone on a remote island; enter the debate over a controversial aggregate quarry in Wawa, Ontario; and learn how the author’s love affair with the world’s largest freshwater lake began on quests for a near-mystical, glacier-dropped monolith. Mihell’s stories build on Lake Superior’s rich and varied history and support its critical place in Canadian culture. Since the beginning, Lake Superior has been revered for its God-like qualities of power, unpredictability, and a seemingly endless expanse of life-sustaining freshwater. The lake’s rugged yet fragile nature and hardscrabble characters and outpost communities define rural northwestern Canada. Experience it for yourself in this first collection of stories by one of the region’s most acclaimed journalists.

Book Description
With this magnificently assured new novel, John McGahern reminds us why he has been called the Irish Chekhov, as he guides readers into a village in rural Ireland and deftly, compassionately traces its natural rhythms and the inner lives of its people. Here are the Ruttledges, who have forsaken the glitter of London to raise sheep and cattle, gentle Jamesie Murphy, whose appetite for gossip both charms and intimidates his neighbors, handsome John Quinn, perennially on the look-out for a new wife, and the town’s richest man, a gruff, self-made magnate known as “the Shah.” Following his characters through the course of a year, through lambing and haying seasons, market days and family visits, McGahern lays bare their passions and regrets, their uneasy relationship with the modern world, their ancient intimacy with death.

Book Description
It starts with a disappearance. Mine to be precise. One moment I’m fighting a dark magic user, the next I’m thrown through the air, not coming to a stop until I’m far from home with no magic and no way to return. That’s only the beginning of my problems. When I finally make it back, I see the man I can’t stop thinking about wielding a sword like an extension of his body. He’s covered in blood, most of which isn’t his, thankfully. I don’t live in a peaceful kingdom like others in the realm. I live on a floating island that houses the worst criminals out there. My home sits near a prison. My magic finally comes back to me, dark as it may be. I wasn’t here when the prisoners escaped. Fortunately, Ryland showed up just in time. He shouldn’t want to be with me. I’m meant to hunt criminals, not get a happily ever after. My heart wars with my mind. In the end, there’s no doubt which will win. I’m in love with a prince. Someone I’ll fight to the death for. Let’s hope when the time comes, we’re both prepared for the battle headed our way. The Sable Keep is the fourth and final book in the Iridescent Realm series. It features a heroine who has dark magic and knows how to use it and a prince who does everything he can to prove there’s no place he’d rather be than fighting by her side. This book contains explicit content and graphic violence intended for those 18 and over. Each book in the series ends with a happily ever after and is best enjoyed when read in order.
