The Friends and the Walk
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
When Randall travels to Port Wintersong to attend Lord Rahn's graduation from secondary school, he thought it would be a short trip. But when his best friend suggests that they walk together as he transitions to the next part of his life, becoming a student at Jones College at the University of Markhurst, Randall agrees.

The Wolf and the Champion
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
Randall continues to help with the young creatures of the Old Dock Quarter, instead of spending his summer escorting caravans and scholastic expeditions. But the real goal is to find and stop whoever is behind the chaos in the area.
A personal attack on Randall might throw their efforts off or kick them in the right direction.
The Reindeer and the Stone Circle
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
Randall has recommitted to his role as a scout and guard. His first opportunity comes from an unexpected place: Doctor Leslie, one of the student scholars he and Marta saved from the wolf slavers during the late Doctor Henry's expedition to excavate under the henge near Lakehurst, wants him and Marta to accompany her first excavation. This sounds like a simple trip to a site far north in the Duchy of the North Fjords.
But the locals seem to be less than welcoming to the delegation from Markhurst University. Randall finds himself in an unusual position, serving as guard, counselor, and assistant, while trying to decide whether the local population of reindeer and huskies poses a threat or is simply unfriendly.
The Catacombs and the Wolf
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
Doctor Leslie wants to hire Randall, Marta, and the young squirrels for another expedition. This time, they are heading all the way to the Pontifical States in the Long Peninsula. The site is in the catacombs under the headquarters of the Global Unified Church in the Eternal City of Firetto.

The Moose and the Crown
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
Randall and Rahn figured married life would be easy. The adoption of a six-year-old kitten, a larger household staff, the abdication of King Arthur, and Randall getting talked into serving the uncrowned King George as one of his advisors already complicated their lives.
When their butler is accused of murdering an old nemesis known to both Randall and Rhan, they are thrown into a web of competing political ideologies, foreign spies, and legal troubles. And they still must deal with the complexities of parenting both a young kitten and a teenage wolf who is discovering more about himself than his powerful magical abilities.
This is the first novel-length adventure featuring Randall, now Lord Randall, and his friends and family.
The Muzzle and the Pursuit
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
After Randall had a big fight with his best friend, a friend whose betrayal had left him so upset he won't even say his friend's name or let his companions, Marta, Michael, or Lois mention him, he starts to fear that he is becoming the bloodthirsty monster he has always feared he might become-truly the son of Curtis his murdering father. He finds that he can only contain this beast, or at least the fear that he is becoming this beast, by putting on the muzzle he took from the slavers who wanted to enslave him years earlier.
When someone burns down Harley's home, Samuel, Harley's Stag champion, insists that Randall step outside of his comfort zone and track the arsonists. Randall finds himself alone in the woods with the stag, in pursuit of one monster while worrying that he might be an even bigger monster.
The Stoat and the Pilgrims
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
The opportunity to escort pilgrims from Lakehurst to the Shrine of Saint Herbert on the Inland Sea coast of Terra de Gossos for more than they had made the entire previous summer sounded to Randall and Marta like a perfect opportunity. Or at least if they could set aside their concerns about the lack of staples and detailed route planning by the stoat and badger monks who hired them.
Accompanied by a trainee champion, Samuel the Stag, they set out with sixteen large pilgrims, including a jovial bear, a wolf whose health might not be as good as he lets on, and a silent, limping moose penitent with a rumored criminal background. Will they be able to bring this pilgrimage all the way from Lakehurst to the far coast across the Altes, the legendary mountains, or will the trouble that always seems to follow Randall again find him?

The Priest and the Gang
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
Randall is having a bad day. His well has gone bad, and a gopher is digging him a new one.

And he's stained his fur. But things are only going to get worse. When he goes to the community well to get water, he discovers that his friend Harley, the hare priest who saved his life three years earlier, is missing, and there is blood in Harley's office.
When the sheriff's new inspector fails to take the case seriously, Randall and Harley's newly appointed champion, the stag Samuel, instead investigate Harley's abduction on their own. This leads them into Lakehurst's burgeoning problem with gangs of young creatures ready to go to war over parts of the Old Dock Quarter, the part of the city that Randall and Harley call home.

The Pup and the Adventure
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
When Marta told Randall they had a job, he thought that it would be a nice break from counting beans and other boring tasks that had kept him occupied since returning from his adventure with Rahn. But escorting the twelve-year-old son of an Inspector working for the Sheriff of Lakehurst to safety after an attack on their office, so soon after leaving his dear friend, was not the job Randall expected.
Neither were the complications of the trip, including poorly marked river fords, tiny hostile creatures, or trapped wolves wanting Randall's help to return to Wildomar.

The Bear and the Squirrel
Part of the Randall Fox Stories series
After returning from their fraught trip to Terra de Gossos, a simple job escorting Doctor Leslie and her students from Markhurst University sounded like a reasonable way to end the summer.
