The Melting Queen
Nunatak First Fiction Series # 48
by Bruce Cinnamon
Every year since 1904, when the ice breaks up on the North Saskatchewan River, Edmonton has crowned a Melting Queen—a woman who presides over the Melting Day spring carnival and who must keep the city’s spirits up over the following winter. But this year, something has changed: a genderfluid ex-frat brother called River Runson is named as Melting Queen. As River’s reign upends the city’s century-old traditions, Edmonton tears itself in two, with progressive and reactionary factions fighting a war for Edmonton’s soul. Ultimately, River must uncover the hidden history of Melting Day, forcing Edmonton to confront the dark underbelly of its traditions and leading the city into a new chapter in its history. Balancing satire with compassion, Bruce Cinnamon’s debut novel combines history and magic to weave a splendid future-looking tale.

“ “
Happy Melting Day! This naughty love-and-hate letter to an imagined version of Edmonton is fabulous, whether you know every corner of the actual place or you’ve never been there. You will want to live in Cinnamon’s city.” ~ Todd Babiak, author of The Garneau Block and The Empress of Idaho Set amongst the landmarks and rituals of a magical Edmonton, this fantasia compels the reader to look at our city—and the feminine forces that subtly but firmly guide it – in a new and thrilling way. The newest Melting Queen, whose gender is as fluid as the green summer river that weaves its way through Edmonton’s rigid grid, signifies transformation, rebirth, and reconciliation.” ~ Darrin Hagen, author of The Edmonton Queen

The Death of Annie the Water Witcher by Lightning by Audrey J. Whitson Three years into the second millennium, Majestic, Alberta is a farm town dealing with low crop prices, international borders closing to Canadian beef, and a severe drought. Older farmers worry about their way of life changing while young people concoct ways to escape: drugs, partying, moving away. Even the church is on the brink of closing. When local woman Annie Gallagher is struck by lightning while divining water for a well, stories of the town’s past, including that of Annie and the grandmother who taught her water witching, slowly emerge as everyone gathers for her funeral. Told through the varied voices of the townspeople and Annie herself, The Death of Annie the Water Witcher by Lightning reveals Majestic to be a complex character in its own right, both haunted and haunting. Here, Audrey J. Whitson has written a novel of hard choices and magical necessity.
FICTION ISBN 13 978-1-988732-47-3 BISAC: FIC019000, FIC068000, FIC061000 300 pp || 5.5 x 8.5” pb April 2019 || $19.95

Majestic is depicted with poetic complexity. Annie’s friends have a salt-of-the-earth goodness, and Annie herself is a faceted, compelling woman who emerges from personal darkness to find her own peace.” ~ Meg Nola, Foreword Reviews The Death of Annie the Water Witcher by Lightning reads as if it has come out of translation, out of a language created and shared within a community formed by geography, memory, and its own expedient, indefinable spirituality.” ~ Jennifer Quist, author of The Apocalypse of Morgan Turner With humour and heart, Whitson peels back the smalltown preoccupations of a winning cast of characters. This book is lyrical and lovely, a stunning achievement.” ~ Fran Kimmel, author of No Good Asking and The Shore Girl

Only Pretty Damned
Nunatak First Fiction Series # 49
by Niall Howell
Only Pretty Damned is a taut noir that takes you behind the big top, revealing rough and tumble characters, murderous plots, and crooked schemes designed to keep Rowland’s World Class Circus afloat for another season. When Toby, former trapeze artist turned disgruntled clown, begins seeing Gloria, a young and beautiful dancer longing for a bigger role under the spotlight, his hardboiled past resurfaces. Can he live without Genevieve, his ex-trapeze partner and lover? What ruthless actions will he take to regain his position as the headlining act? And will Toby’s past repeat itself as he tries to untangle the ropes that bind him and take a leap to roaring applause? Only Pretty Damned combines the pace and tone of James M. Cain’s The Postman Always Rings Twice with the postwar circus world of Cecil B. DeMille’s The Greatest Show On Earth.

“
This character driven spectacle lets us peek behind the literal curtain of the theatre of the strange. Deception and desire drive the action in this unique who-done it-thriller. The suspense is visceral...” ~ Micheline Maylor, author of Little Wildheart A captivating, engrossing, gothic noir that whisks the reader away and makes them feel as if they’re on the road with an old time travelling circus. The characters are complex, the prose rich, and riveting darkness abounds as the plot unfolds. A stellar debut from Niall Howell.” ~ A.J. Devlin, author of Cobra Clutch

Echolocation by Karen Hofmann
In this provocative collection of short stories, Karen Hofmann creates characters who struggle to connect or disconnect from entanglements and relationships. With ironic accuracy and sensuous imagery, Hofmann considers a range of human foibles: a newlywed couple who transform into feral beasts during the hardships of a remote research expedition; backbiting faculty members who strip down during a postconference BBQ; an heretical nun who explores the possibility of a new life by imaginatively excavating the fossils of BC’s Burgess Shale; and an ambitious bylaw officer determined to make her mark on the city’s streets. In Echolocation, Karen Hofmann has found new ways to sound the depths of the human heart.
SHORT FICTION ISBN 13 978-1-988732-56-5 BISAC: FIC029000, FIC044000, FIC019000 200 pp || 6 x 9” pb May 2019 || $19.95
Karen Hofmann is an Associate Professor at Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops, British Columbia. Her debut poetry collection, Water Strider, was shortlisted for the Dorothy Livesay prize.

“
Part Darwinian, part Ovidian, these are waltzing and desirous tales of transformation, thrumming with verdant light reaching through forest canopies. Hofmann’s characters are strange creatures bumping against one another in the shadows, with cracking voices seeking to connect. And then, when you least expect it, mad leaps from the dark into the light.” ~ R.W. Gray, author of Entropic and Crisp

Molly of the Mall:
Nunatak First Fiction Series # 50
Literary Lass and Purveyor of Fine Foorwear
by Heidi L.M. Jacobs Aspiring novelist Molly MacGregor’s life is strikingly different from a literary heroine’s. Named for one of literature’s least romantic protagonists, Moll Flanders, Molly lives in Edmonton, a city she finds irredeemably unromantic, where she writes university term papers instead of novels, and sells shoes in the Largest Mall on Earth. There she seeks the other half of her young life’s own matched pair. Delightfully whimsical, Heidi L.M. Jacobs’ Molly of the Mall: Literary Lass and Purveyor of Fine Footwear explores its namesake’s love for the written word, love for the wrong men (and the right one), and her complicated love for her city.

Heidi L.M. Jacobs was born and raised in Edmonton. While attending the University of Alberta, she worked a variety of retail jobs, including selling shoes. She is currently the English and History Librarian at the University of Windsor.

Heidi L.M. Jacobs nails it. Molly of the Mall relentlessly, hilariously conveys the ennui felt by anyone who has ever read a book and then gone to the mall, just as it captures the malaise and pretension of every undergraduate English course ever. A rollicking literary romance set in the icy moonscape of 1990s Edmonton, Molly is wicked good fun.” ~Kit Dobson, author of Malled: Deciphering Shopping in Canada Heidi L.M. Jacobs has created a delightfully whimsical protagonist in Molly. Always informed by the characters from literature she loves, she approaches life in her own unique, and fanciful, way. Such fun to follow the retail nightmares and romantic comedy mishaps of this Austenian heroine of mid90s Edmonton.” ~ Dina Del Bucchia, author of It’s a Big Deal!
