Synopsis:

"Cerilli’s use of Faerie Disorder as an extended metaphor for neurodivergence is rich with nuance, and the world is infused with queerness and racial diversity. A cinematic and enthralling flare of fey magic." —Kirkus STARRED Review

"A viciously clever caper steeped in noir grittiness and fey chaos. Puck's Port will devour you." —Mary Averling, author of The Curse of Eelgrass Bog

In a world where magical beings, fey, are mistrusted and often institutionalized, a human brother and fey sister must team up to solve a bizarre murder in this 1920s-inspired queer teen fantasy novel.

In the city of Puck's Port, where motorized vehicles fill the streets and new technological marvels abound, something rotten is lurking under the surface. A violent murder at the docks seems to point to a fey killer, igniting a powder keg of distrust between the city's humans and its fey inhabitants — folks who wield wonderful but often uncontrollable magical power.

Gristle Senan Maxim Junior finds himself caught in the middle. Forced into the reluctant role of private investigator, like his late father, he's working to solve the mystery of this fiery murder . . . mainly because his sister, Hawthorne Stregoni, is a fey herself with an unfortunate penchant for setting things ablaze.

Hawthorne is part of an experimental study to control feyism but struggles to keep her powerful magic in check in a country that hates what she is. Can she and Gristle work together to find the true instigator of the murder before it's too late?

How much weight are you carrying?
Size: 16lb, Color: Black
I’m very pleased with my 16lb weighted vest. Great quality. The straps are easy to adjust and the weight is evenly distributed when wearing. It really helps with your posture. Great way to ease in on training for backcountry hiking/camping.

Comfortable Fit & Great Added Challenge
Size: 8 Lb, Color: Black, Size: 8 Lb, Color: Black
Really impressed with this vest. It fits snug without being bulky and stays in place during walks and workouts. The weight feels evenly distributed, so it’s comfortable on my shoulders and back. I’ve been using the 8 lb option and it’s the perfect way to add a little extra challenge to my routine. Easy to put on, well made, and definitely worth it!

comfortable and works
Size: 10 Lb, Color: Black
Finally figured out how to wear this vest. There are two sides to the vest. When I put it on upside down, it fits much better and is comfortable. I bought the 10lb vest and although it feels heavy when you pick it up, its very comfortable when wearing it. If I put it on right side up it does not fit across my chest. But turned around it fits great and I am able to buckle it closed. I definately stand up straighter when wearing this vest and easy to walk around it. Although, as the weather gets hotter, it is a bit warm to wear.

ONE OF THE BEST ON THE MARKET AND GREAT PRICE!
Size: 24 Lb, Color: Pink, Size: 24 Lb, Color: Pink
I received my 24 pound vest today. I ordered pink. I love the color! Upon inspection, I see that the vest is very well-made, sturdy, with no metal beads leaking. It fits great. My previous vest hung down too low, resting on my hips. This one sits much higher, just like I wanted it too. This fits my body pretty great. I wore it inside my house to give it a try for two hours. It never shifted and I did not have to adjust it. However, the bulging sand pockets on my back, pressed against my shoulder blades and were a little bit bothersome, but not painful. I’m sure I’ll get used to it. I have purchased 5 rucking vests from 4 different manufacturers and this one, along with RuKSTR are the best. Unfortunately, RuKSTR does not make a 24+ lb weighted vest. Here are the stats of my body: 5’9” 142 lbs. 68 yrs old Bust = 38” Waist = 28” Midriff = 30” Top of shoulder to waist = 19” Shoulders end-to-end = 15”
