    Summary

    Three months after he turned 22, Raoul made the brash decision to leave all he's known behind and went into business of running an Opera with incompetent fools.

    He's the proud Stage Papa of 36 talented people, best friend to a stage manager with crippling anxiety, casually courting a sociopathic murder addicted "ghost," and just doing his best to save the Opera Populaire from any sordid thing that comes their way
    and if you don't like all that he do, you can suck a duck . . .

    Raoul: It's not always doom and gloom at the Opera. Sometimes it's weird, fun, and unusual. Sometimes.

    Summary

    After an assassination attempt left him horribly scarred, nearly crippled, and half-blind, King Eskel of Kaedwin has to navigate the ruling of a country that sees him as little more than an outsider.

    Tortured by guilt over having been unable to save his lover from the attack that had nearly taken his life, knight Geralt de Riva exiles himself to the front lines of the battle against Nilfgaard in an attempt at penance through blood.

    When the war ends and the army returns home Geralt and Eskel must face not only the reality of who they have become - to each other and themselves - over the intervening years but also the last remnants of a shadowy political plot that seeks to remake Kaedwen in its own image.

    Summary

    Eskel was not a delicate fae. If his fellow sprites were the petals of a blooming rose, he was the jagged thorns on the stem, unsightly but necessary. They tolerated him. He was the best at dealing with infestations of insects, his battered, well-built body could tolerate the pesticides sprayed on the flowerbeds enough to make it safe again and he could knock a goblin out in one punch. Not only that, but he was one of the few fairies left that could adjust his size to an impressive six inches tall. A veritable giant. He was a much-needed bastion against the dangers of the Outworld, the name the fairies gave to their own realm because of its existence on the periphery, and the human world.

    The words “oh, that’s just Eskel” became a catchphrase that every generation repeated when he was near or did something peculiar. Just Eskel. Simple, ugly, utilitarian Eskel.
