T. Thorn Coyle - To Raise A Clenched Fist to the Sky
"Imagine the Black Panthers of the 1960s, only with magic in a stunningly well-written and detailed take of that turbulent time in history." This alternate history fantasy series is set in the turbulent years of 1968-1969 - particularly the month of December, 1969 - when J. Edgar Hoover took on the Black Panther Party. To Raise a Clenched Fist to the Sky is the first book in The Panther Chronicles saga, an engaging urban fantasy series. If you like far out magic, alternative history, and strong characters who take a stand, then you’ll love this bold novel.

Remembering Coyle and Sharpe, groundbreaking comedy duo
This week, we're doing something a little different: looking back on the work of Jim Coyle and Mal Sharpe. Two brilliant comedians, decades ahead of their time. The comedy duo recorded a series of hilarious and bizarre man-on-the-street records in the 1960s. They'd approach people with usually an absurd proposition: let's rob a bank together. Let's give a stranger a child. Let's become one person – all all three of us. Deeply weird and deeply funny questions. Jim Coyle died in 1993. Mal Sharpe died this past March. He was 83. We're taking time to remember the comedy duo by revisiting a couple co...
