Ash Flake in a Blizzard
Ash Flake in a Blizzard
Ash Flake in a Blizzard sits somewhere between a memoir, a short story collection, and a stack of letters between close friends. It's about the stories we inherit whether we want to or not, the identities imposed on us, and the ones we build for ourselves. It's a series of snapshots, postcards from a thousand hills to the Ardennes… not mere locations, but their echoes, their scars, their hearts. It's also a life distilled into words. From military service, fatherhood, collapse, and reconstruction, Gabriel revisits the moments that made him and traces the path to what nearly unmade him.
Told with humor, tenderness, and intimacy, this story isn't afraid to interrogate its own narrator, to demand the raw truth, however uncomfortable. Ash Flake in a Blizzard chronicles one life among billions, insignificant from a distance and impossibly intricate up close.
Doomhaven Odyssey
Doomhaven
Some say death is the end.
If that were so, Zuberi would have stayed in the seventeenth century. At the bottom of the sea.
Instead, he awakens in Doomhaven, where impossible creatures roam, unfamiliar powers await discovery, and danger defies reason.
A hunter at heart, Zuberi once led his people. Now, unknowable centuries later, he faces the prospect of leading again. The strangers around him are bewildering enough. The thought of leading them to ruin is far worse.
A social worker who catches glimpses of futures yet to unfold. Her estranged brother, whose talent for bad decisions is rivaled only by his newfound command of shadows. A lonely boy who can feel the emotions of others but has never felt loved. And a peculiar shapeshifter whose changing appearance may be the least mysterious thing about her.
Doomhaven couldn't care less about their differences. Neither do the creatures hunting them. Trust and teamwork might keep them alive, but power demands something far more difficult: facing who they truly are, and learning to accept what they find.
And through it all, someone, something, or worse is watching.
