Albert never planned to stay long. A makeshift community of schoolteachers and half-feral kids wasn’t exactly his idea of peace and quiet—even if it came with running water, rationed rice pudding, and the faint smell of chalk dust.

Because he knows a place. Off the map. Out of the way. Where tomato plants grow in neat rows, the old folk still believe in crochet, and nobody makes you join a ...

Midlife crisis or magical apocalypse? Can't it be both? Angie Daly thought her biggest problems were keeping her struggling bookstore afloat and surviving her eccentric family.
