The Ambassador of What
Slogging through the miles of a city marathon, an 11-year-old boy encounters small miracles; about to marry one of her patients in a home for the elderly, a nurse asks her estranged son to come to the wedding and give her away; home from university, a young man has Christmas dinner with his hard-up dad in a bistro behind a rural gas bar. Men and boys and maleness, money and its lack, the long haunt of childhood, marriage and divorce — these lie at the heart of The Ambassador of What. Driven by an ear for how we talk, how we feel, how we fail, and how we love, these are tough and tender stories that take hold, and linger.
Down Sterling Road
Nominated for an Alberta Book Award. Time you had a haircut. Look like a mop. Not that skinny. Skin and bloody bone, boy. Jacob breaks the point of his pencil but makes it look like an accident. And away Dad goes out the door and thump thump down the stairs. Jacob eyes the hole at the end of his pencil. Listens till he can't hear the Torino anymore. Crawls under the covers. Hopes the rest of December comes and goes like a heartbeat. Eleven-year-old Jacob McKnight doesn't like running. He doesn't like the hills, the cold wind, the slushy electrolyte drinks, the interval training. He doesn't like the way his dad is always pushing him: harder, faster, what's wrong with you, boy? But mostly he d...

For Sake of the Son
Nico is committed to earning his place among entrepreneurs like his father who has amassed a fortune through legal businesses and criminal enterprises. Whether he is successful depends upon his ability to negotiate the sale of a near priceless stolen artifact and survive the serious risks encountered along the way. Despite his best efforts and help from his father's dark associates, there are always unknown variables that can jeopardize his plans, as well as his life. But, help can also emerge from unexpected sources and unlikely characters that are struggling through entanglements of their own. Life is unpredictable much of the time and very fragile, as Nico painfully learns as his endeavors take him from the elegance of Europe to the tropical waters off Hawaii's shoreline. The choice between salvation and damnation becomes all too real. A young man's resolve and paternal bonds are severely tested by ambition and greed resulting in theft and murder across the globe.
The Magus in Clown Shoes
In Volume 4 of his 'Confessions', Michael Kelly relates the events surrounding him from 2004 to 2017, bringing the story up to date. Beginning just after his departure from the Temple of Set, he describes how he formulated the Apophis curriculum of Draconian Magic, leading to the founding of The Apophis Club and the Apophis Academy. He also discusses his progress to Mastery in the Rune-Gild, leading to his current focus on the runes of the Younger Futhark and the preservation of the lore and practice of the Manx runes used by his own forefathers. Kelly describes many travels and adventures from this period, and presents several important papers which have never previously seen print, although the impact of their insights has shone through in his later work. He discusses how he became a writer and reshaped his world to match his dreams, Remanifesting time and again. There is much of magic, mirth and mystery in these pages, all told with humour, craft and cunning, concealing profound truths behind the words. Kelly remains ever the jester, the clown in the court of the king, who is nonetheless the true power behind the throne.
