A masterful poetic exploration of the impact of Matthew Shepard’s murder on the world. On the night of October 6, 1998, a gay twenty-one-year-old college student named Matthew Shepard was kidnapped from a Wyoming bar by two young men, savagely beaten, tied to a remote fence, and left to die. Gay Awareness Week was beginning at the University of Wyoming, and the keynote speaker was Lesléa Newman, discussing her book Heather Has Two Mommies. Shaken, the author addressed the large audience that gathered, but she remained haunted by Matthew’s murder. October Mourning, a novel in verse, is her deeply felt response to the events of that tragic day. Using her poetic imagination, the author creates fictitious monologues from various points of view, including the fence Matthew was tied to, the stars that watched over him, the deer that kept him company, and Matthew himself. More than a decade later, this stunning cycle of sixty-eight poems serves as an illumination for readers too young to remember, and as a powerful, enduring tribute to Matthew Shepard’s life. Back matter includes an epilogue, an afterword, explanations of poetic forms, and resources.

It might have been better to let the world die... “Here are the bullet points. Sparks—people like me—have superpowers. We’re from this Earth, and we get our powers from a big ol’ Maelstrom at the center of the planet. The Shard is a giant black rock the Maelstrom created and banished to an alternate Earth just after the creation of the Universe. And the Chosen come from that Earth, where the Shard rules everything. “Are you still there? It’s a lot, right?” A year has passed since the heroes of the maelstrom saved the world by bringing its new conqueror from an alternate earth. The good guys and girls split apart, hiding from the Shard and its Chosen rulers of the planet, preparing for the final battle. Battle lines are drawn and moral lines will be crossed in the exciting conclusion to the Tragic Heroes Trilogy. Avatars of the Maelstrom is the third book in the Tragic Heroes Trilogy and Jan-Ives Campbell’s fourth novel. He is also the author of the graphic novel, The League of Super Groovy Crimefighters.
Being a superhero is tough. 0/10, would not recommend. “I used to be someone. I was a superhero with a snazzy costume and a badass codename. I was part of a superteam. We saved the world. How the mighty have fallen.” A year ago, Azuela ( a.k.a. Chrome) used her flight, armor, and super-strength alongside her fellow heroes to thwart the self-proclaimed savior and conqueror Shiva—a super-intelligent despot with plans to conquer the world. The battle destroyed an entire nation but may have prevented a dark future. Now, two sentient energy beings—the source of Azuela’s powers and the powers of those like her—are determined to destroy humanity. Chrome and her allies don’t have a chance of defeating the rogue spirits unless they retrieve a long-lost fragment of the Maelstrom from an alternate universe. But their secret weapon may be the greater of two evils... Vengeance of the Maelstrom is the second book in the Tragic Heroes Trilogy and Jan-Ives Campbell’s third novel. He is also the author of the graphic novel The League of Super Groovy Crimefighters.
