Oyster Olson\u2014a shy, private, transgender blues musician living peacefully in an intentional community, Hermitville for short, on Hawai\u2019i Island\u2014always knew he was different. But only the magical Book of Moons,<\/span> thrust upon him by the community\u2019s founder shortly before her death, can reveal just how different he is!<\/span> And who his real parents are!<\/p>\n

Oyster, burdened by this secret, soon shares the book with his unrequited crush, burlesque artiste Babe Bump (she\/her), and their best friend, drag performer Tomma Bedlam (ze\/zir). The three of them grow closer (and closer!) as they explore the book\u2019s ever-changing number of pages and learn of its origin as the grimoire of an ancient English mystery school, The Guild of Ornamental Hermits.<\/p>\n

The Book of Moons<\/span> brings love, death, Elves, unsuspected family ties, and cosmic cracks in Time\/Space, just as a greedy real-estate developer schemes to convert funky Hermitville into a posh eco-resort. Even worse, relentless interdimensional foes, pouring through cosmic cracks, target Hermitville and all life in the Hawaiian archipelago.<\/p>\n

Even with ten dedicated Elven mentors and a crash course in Elven magic, will Oyster, Babe, Tomma, and the other residents of Hermitville be able to transform themselves in time from mere misfits and musicians into magicians powerful enough to join the Elves in halting the impending chaos and destruction? Will they all go down in defeat and the world with them, humans and elves alike?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\r\n \r\n \t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n
