The Halfling's Court

by Danielle Ackley-McPhail, Linda Saboe (Illustrator)

Overview

Get Your Bad-Ass On!

The rumble of a Harley...
The gleam of black leather...
The shine of polished chrome...
The freedom of the open road....

Motorcycles meet magic and mayhem as Lance Cosain, the halfling leader of The Wild Hunt MC, protects his turf and his people from attacks ordered by Dair na Scath, the high king of the fae.

Holding his own against rogue fae, redcaps, and pissed-off road gremlins, all Lance wants to do is settle down with his lady. Instead he goes toe-to-toe with the high king’s champion over an ancient dagger and his claim to the throne.

Who will triumph? The king of the road or the king of the realm? Either way, the Hunt is on!
