The instant we touched the cane, we were teleported to a labyrinth. It was wild, like one of those surreal paintings where up was down and left was right. The whole space was mad...

I was spat out by the River into a dark basement. I would have loved to portal to my own hideout, but my bug sense extended only so far. It was all I could do to find an empty house nearby. Whoever owned this house would...

LeCroix was dead and I was a hundred grand richer. Well, not quite. Sure, a mercenary, vigilante, and part-time assassin such as myself didn’t exactly operate within the bounds of the law, but even I had bills to pay.

I joined Glynda in the headmaster’s office the next day. Understandably, classes had been canceled for first years. They needed a day to process. Even for huntsmen, a true life or death battle wasn’t a milestone to be ...

For all his immense power and cooking talent, I did not like Tianyu Yue. Oh, I could acknowledge that he had many good traits.

You know how this works, so have a dad joke:

Asked my son what he learned at school today. He said, “Gay men like Sony, lesbians favor Yamaha, and transgender people prefer Bose.”

Kneeling down I put my hand on his shoulder and replied, “Son, those are just stereo types.”

Hookwolf’s dogfighting ring was easy to find once I put my mind to it. By process of elimination, there were only so many places he could be: The downtown area had too much traffic and I doubted Kaiser wanted that kind...
