Wizard of the Pigeons by Megan Lindholm is now available for pre-order!
It is one of my favorite books. Wizard of the Pigeons is a deftly written classic by a master of her craft, a powerful urban fantasy originally published before urban fantasy became a bestselling genre. It is much more than that though. The book centers on a character named Wizard, a homeless Seattle man suffering from PTSD, a veteran who has forgotten the atrocities of his wartime past—a past still living with him and one that endangers the entire city.
On a personal level, it echoes the plight of my veteran father, who suffered with severe PTSD for decades after his stint in Vietnam. Wizard of the Pigeons made me understand him better. I knew I wanted to produce limited and lettered editions of it. But when I learned rights were available for a wider release, I jumped at the chance. This is a book that deserves to never go out of print.
And in publishing it, Grim Oak Press will donate 5% of profits to the National Veterans Foundation. Your order will help improve the lives of veterans and their families.
