Terry
In 1980, Terry Fox set out to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research -- despite having lost one leg to the disease. His goal was to raise $1 from every Canadian to help find a cure, and some combination of passion, idealism, and sheer guts led to the impossible notion that he would do this on one good leg and a prosthesis. Beginning in Newfoundland on April 12, 1980, he ran 26 miles each day for 143 consecutive days. But on September 1, the return of his cancer forced him to stop in Thunder Bay, Ontario. He died ten months later, but by then his dream had been realized: over $24 million had been collected in his name. Created to help celebrate the 25th anniversary of his journey, this biography combines over 80 new photographs from a previously unknown family collection with a very personal episodic narrative. The result brings a magic moment in Canadian history, and the young man who inspired it, freshly alive. All royalties from the book will be donated to the Terry Fox Foundation to support cancer research.

Rough Cut
An abandoned Cold War experimental project gets hijacked by an unscrupulous international corporation. On offer is a disposal programme for wealthy people who wish to divest themselves of wives, husbands, lovers, business partners - whomsoever. This yarn is not a fantasy and does not read as such. It is quirky; the reader cannot relax into what is around the next bend in the canal. The action owes much to the unlikely setting of the English Inland Waterways and the live-aboard life on a canal narrowboat (of which the author has had many years of experience). Can you have a fast pace on a slow moving canal boat? This book certainly thinks you can. To say more could spoil the plot...

Dark Metropolis: Planetsong
Dark Metropolis: Planetsong is the story about the planet Celesta. She is dying and she sings to her sister planets to save her children. One of her sisters, Gaia takes one of Celesta's children called Cha'Lan to help her fight a war between her children "The Olympians" and the "Ancient Old Ones" in a city called Dark Metropolis.
Trust/Truth
Fidelity and honesty on trial! Party boy James Michael Chase can't stand his boyfriend Terry's secretive nature. And Terry suspects James Michael is messing around on him. The couple's relationship dissolves quickly, resulting in a custody battle over their dog, and their humorous fight for love and understanding of each other. The bold and funny graphic novel, a stylistic departure for Fish along with colorist William O. Tyler, delivers the long-awaited second half to this homo-satirization, partially serialized at Popimage.com as "The Tragic Something or Other". Cavalcade of Boys series creator Tim Fish (Strugglers, Love is the Reason) presents this new installment in full color. Trust/Truth was written as a stand-alone romantic comedy featuring familiar Cavalcade characters and will appeal to fans of the original series, gay and straight alike. Released digitally by Northwest Press, which has been publishing quality LGBT-inclusive comics and graphic novels since 2010.
