When Adair, a comic book loving changeling who's as excitable as he is clueless, accidentally gets caught up in a wicked fairy plot, he all but gives up on hope of survival. That is until he narrowly escapes the Autumn Queen's wrath and is spat out into the world of mortals. Trouble is, Adair hasn't the first clue on how to make it in the world of men, especially in Killarney. Fortunately, his guardian, Robin Goodfellow, makes arrangement to keep him safe in what can only be described as a fairy witness protection program. While adjusting to his new life, Adair befriends a ghost with an Elvis addiction, a cursed Irish rover and an adventurous American tourist named Evie. As Adair puts together clues as how to strike back at the Autumn Queen, he realizes that there's more that meets the eye to Evie, and she may be bait set by Queen. Dim Fairy Tales is Justin Alcala at his weirdest. It takes old Celtic folklore and blends it with the absurd for an outrageous ride.

A Dead-End Job

Fans of Terry Pratchett and Shane Kuhn's THE INTERN'S HANDBOOK will love this noir supernatural thriller. Death needs a vacation. Badly. But there's a catch: There are people who cheat the system, always falling through the cracks and not dying like they're supposed to. Who's going to take care of them while Death's sipping on sangria? The answer is simple: Death needs an intern, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that one prospect, Buck Palasinksia-a bankrupt hitman with a roleplaying addiction-might have what it takes. While scoping out his next target, Buck gets drilled in the forehead by a bullet and falls right into Death's lap. If they shove him back into his body, he'll have a few weeks to prove that he has what it takes to be Death's right-hand. All he has to do is take out Public Enemy No. 1, John Dillinger, and quit smoking.
