Distant Rumblings (Lords of Arcadia #1)
John Goode
Lords of Arcadia: Act One
Kane Vess may be gay, but he is also extraordinarily ordinary—a
crushing weight in Athens, Iowa, where a person’s worth is measured by
his uniqueness. But when he meets the school’s newest student, Kane’s
ordinariness seems to evaporate. He is desperate to get to know the
mysterious stranger… and that leads him into danger.
Hawk is
an exile from his homeland, an otherworldly traveler with impossible
abilities and a changeling bodyguard. He’s generally disappointed in
Earth, which seems common except for Kane. But while Hawk and Kane
explore their mutual interest, the forces that made Hawk an exile are
busy tracking him down. Kane’s newfound feelings pull him into Hawk’s
shadowy fantasy world, where he learns he needs to grow up fast. Kane’s
life may now be extraordinary, but if he isn’t careful it could cost him
everyone he holds dear—including Hawk.
