The Men of Myth Companion Stories contains two stand-alone novellas. Emerging Rebellion-Having lost his birthright as heir to the throne, Quay made peace with his lot as an outcast of fairy society years ago. But emotions and longings he believed dead stir once more as he watches his beloved brother emerge from his chrysalis to take his place as the prince.Even as memories of the torture and betrayals of the past haunt him, Quay begins to fall in love-an act that should be so simple, but is illegal for such as he. When a series of strange deaths point to danger broiling within the fairy kingdom, Quay is torn. After so long as an outcast, can Quay help, does he hold any power at all?Shifting Silver-The year is 1618, and Allakau is different from the other members of the Alaskan Yupik tribe. His people survive by hunting, but Allakau is unable to kill or eat flesh. As another season reaches its end and winter approaches, Allakau encounters a narwhal with silver eyes similar to his own. He saves the creature's life but incurs his father's wrath, and Allakau is given one last chance to prove himself a productive part of the tribe or be left behind to die. As he spends time alone in the woods, clues about his past and destiny begin to fall into place with the aid of another silver-eyed creature. His hunt might finally lead him to the truth about what sets him apart and where he belongs-if he can survive it.
