future. The world is broken, the last of humanity has been forced to live in Antarctica, the only livable habit remaining on earth.

Travelers – Book Review
Travelers is the first book of the Travelers Series by Al Hess. This is the second series by him that I have read. The first being the Hepcats of Boise. This story is more post-apocalyptic than the dystopian Hepcats stories were. Though it is the first book of the series, there was a prequel story that was released later titled Toskaheart, that I had read first. It was listed as Book 0 of the series.
Elf Child – Book Review
Elf Child is a story by David M. Pierce that came out in 2003. I mention the year, as this is a book I have previously read. I bought this book about a year after it came out from an LGBTQ book store in San Diego. I remember reading it and falling in love with it. It was always so refreshing to read fantasy-type stories with an LGBTQ protagonist.

The Stagsblood Prince – Book Review
The Stagsblood Prince is the first book in the series, The Stagsblood Trilogy, by Gideon E. Wood. This is a gay-themed fantasy story which is what drew me to the story. I enjoy fantasy stories, but so few seem to have any LGBTQ characters outside of coded characters.
