We\u2019re so pleased you asked:<\/p>\n<p><em>The gods are dead, but will not be forgotten.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>When Mymnir flees the devastation of Ragnarok, she hopes to escape all that bound her to \u00c1sgar\u00f0r \u2014 a heedless pantheon, a domineering brother, and her neglectful father-master, \u00d3\u00f0inn. But the white raven, a being of memory and magic, should know that the past is not so easily left behind. No matter how far she flies, she cannot evade her family\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>In planting seeds of the old world in the new, Mymnir becomes queen of a land with as many problems as the one she fled. Her long-lived Fae children ignite and fan feuds that span generations; lives are lost and loves won because of their tampering. Told in thirteen parts, <strong>Midnight and Moonshine<\/strong> follows the Beaufort and Laveaux families, part-human, part-Fae, as they battle, thrive and survive in Mymnir\u2019s kingdom.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Midnight and Moonshine is a collection of interconnected tales with links between them as light and strong as spider-silk. From fire giants to whispering halls, disappearing children to evening-wolves, fairy hills to bewitched cypress trees, and talking heads to moonshiners of a special sort, Midnight and Moonshine takes readers on a journey from ninth century Vinland to America\u2019s Deep South in the present day. Hannett and Slatter have created a mosaic novel of moments, story-tiles as strange as witchwood and withywindles.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Midnight and Moonshine is a rich tapestry of dark fantasy, fairy tale and speculation.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Table of Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Seeds<\/li>\n<li>Burning Seaweed for Salt<\/li>\n<li>The Morning is Wiser than the Evening<\/li>\n<li>The Third Who Went With Us<\/li>\n<li>To that Man, My Bitter Counsel<\/li>\n<li>Kveld\u00falfr<\/li>\n<li>The Red Wedding<\/li>\n<li>Midnight<\/li>\n<li>Of the Demon and the Drum<\/li>\n<li>Warp and Weft<\/li>\n<li>Bella Beaufort Goes to War<\/li>\n<li>Prohibition Blues<\/li>\n<li>Seven Sleepers<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>When will the book be available?<\/strong> 15 November 2012.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are Lisa and Angela available for interview?<\/strong> Yes, contact them either via their websites or via Russell B.
