Illustrator: Yes Genre: Fiction Synopsis: Panda Fowler is a good-natured tax preparer who loves her wife Mitzi, their cat Brutus, their friends, and her routine. She's a born skeptic who's practical and down to earth. Mitzi Fowler is a free-spirited travel agent who keeps Panda from being a total stick in the mud. She believes in fun and fantasy and isn't shy about her love of adventure or her belief in the possibility of magic and supernatural beings. One of their best friends, curator of the Merryville Museum, brings internationally-acclaimed Fiona Castlebaum to unleash a performance piece called Floodlight. But when Fiona goes off script, Mitzi and Panda have their lives turned upside down. And then a creature from the Hercynian Forest arrives with a cryptic message for Panda. Worst of all, Mitzi goes missing. Will Panda have the courage to face a frightening world that she never believed in so she can find and retrieve her mate? Will Mitzi survive the ordeals she encounters? The suspense gradually increases, but so does the humor as Panda and friends challenge the magical world, battle powerful villains, and struggle to get Mitzi back. "I love me some wacky plots and characters, and between the thrills and chills in Floodlight, this book has a lot of humorous stuff in it. Besides, there are elves and griffins and dwarves--oh, my!--who could ask for anything more? If you like the funny urban fantasies of Charlaine Harris or Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, you'll likely enjoy Birmingham's new series." Jessie Chandler, award-winning author of The Shay O'Hanlon Caper Series Format: Trade Paperback Intended Audience: Trade Item Width: 6 in Item Weight: 11.5 Oz brand: Penlight Industries, LLC Topic: Fantasy / General, Fantasy / Contemporary, Fantasy / Humorous, Lgbt / Lesbian, Lgbt / Gay Reviews: "In this first novel in a projected fantasy series, debut novelist Birmingham's LGBTQ representation among the cast is refreshing. She parallels the fictional cult with the patriarchy, and she compares interspecies relationships in the fantasy world with LGBTQ relationships in ours." Kirkus Reviews "I love me some wacky plots and characters, and in between the thrills and chill in Floodlight, this book has a lot of humorous stuff in it. Besides, there are elves and griffins and dwarves--who could ask for anything more? If you like the funnier urban fantasies of Charlaine Harris or Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, you'll likely enjoy Birmingham's new series." Jessie Chandler, award-winning author of The Shay O'Hanlon Caper Series "Look out J.K. Rowling. Here comes Reba Birmingham... In Floodlight, this first-time author creates a fantasy world that, if the author continues honing her craft, might be compared to the fantasy worlds of Rowling, Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. Birmingham is already ahead of these famous authors in that she is not afraid to feature lesbians and lesbian couples as her heroes. To see lesbians waging war with evil is not a new sight for gay men whose lesbian friends literally helped them survive the HIV/AIDS virus. But to the average reader who may not have ever thought much about lesbians, this will be a colorful and creative entry into a whole new world." Mel White, Author of Stranger at the Gate: To be Gay & Christian in America and Holy Terror: Lies the Christian Rights Tells Us to Deny Gay Equality "From the cozy tenderness of two middle-aged lesbians spooning each other to sleep after a long day of tax preparation to an epic battle between dwarves, elves, and humans, Floodlight champions the magic of the ordinary and vice versa. Birmingham is the real thing, and it feels like she is just getting started. Lucky for us."
