A little Penny Dreadful . A tad bit Fargo . All Northern Creatures. Welcome to Alfheim, Minnesota. I walked out of the Arctic and into Alfheim’s magic two centuries ago. The elves had no idea what to do with the giant, re-animated corpse in their midst other than to offer me what they had long offered all unloved and unwanted magicals — a home. Without elven magic, the Alfheim Werewolf Pack would descend into madness. Without the stability of the elves, the local vampires and witches would fall prey to their own evil natures. And without the elves, I would still be the rage-filled monster stitched together by my father’s genius and unholy hubris. Now, I have a good life. I have family. Friends. A community that supports and protects me. But some ghosts from rage-filled pasts are more horrific than others. Some want to rip apart more than just my soul. Some want my flesh. And now I must face a vampiric demon so powerful not even elven magic can stop it…. Join Frank Victorsson and the magical people of Alfheim, Minnesota, in Monster Born , the first novel in the new Northern Creatures series from Kris Austen Radcliffe. less

Werewolves, vampires, and witches have been allowed to live-and cause problems-in Arne Odinsson's domain. The other Elven Courts want an explanation, and when the Elf Emperor calls a Conclave in Las Vegas, Arne and his people have no choice but to defend themselves. With his control of Alfheim riding on the quality of his Conclave witnesses, Arne sends Frank Victorsson and a werewolf, Remy Geroux, to track down a reformed succubus whom Alfheim helped centuries ago. But when Frank makes the mistake of offering his services to a trickster god, he and Remy must navigate not only angry spirits and elven politics, but also a horde worse than vampires-cosplayers. Because where would an international Elven Conclave happen? At the world's largest international cosplay gathering, of course. Welcome to Las Vegas's own "Elfcon," baby. May we all survive. less
