Huckleberry Rahr is a mathematics instructor at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. She spent many years teaching math around the Midwest and in Papua New Guinea with the Peace Corps. Her parents instilled a love of reading from a young age.
She grew up with lesbian moms who had a huge collection of women authors with heroines as the protagonist. Her favorite genre was fantasy and science fiction, that is, until she discovered urban fantasy. What her mom’s library lacked were books with characters that looked like her family: diversity in background, gender identity, and sexuality. She decided if she couldn’t find that series, then she would write it.
See you from 4pm to 7pm on Friday, January 12th, 2024 at Studio Moonfall, 5031 7th Avenue, with Huckleberry Rahr!

Gear up for an evening teeming with chaos gremlins, rich Dungeons & Dragons vibes, and a tight timeline that’s sure to get your heart racing. Greta Kelly, the magical weaver of tales, graces Studio Moonfall with her presence. And trust us, you don’t want to miss this!
Delve into the realm of “The Queen of Days,” an epic gunpowder fantasy tale of a family of thieves, a race against time, heists & hijinx, and the impending danger of fallen gods. Imagine combining the intriguing mischief of “Six of Crows” with the adventurous spirit of “The Lies of Locke Lamora,” and you get a story loaded with all the banter, found family dynamics, and stakes so high they might just cause vertigo.
For Balthazar, it was all fun and games, a little mischief mixed with revenge. But soon, he finds himself amid a whirlpool of magic, a missing statue half, and the possibility of dooming or saving an entire city. With an ensemble cast that boasts characters like a society lady turned bomb maker, a disgraced soldier, and even a time-eating demon, this tale is for those who crave an intoxicating blend of intrigue and fantasy.
But that’s not all about Greta Kelly. Did you know she is (probably) not a witch? But she certainly has a penchant for too-beautiful-to-use journals and a soft spot for Butterfingers candy. Currently residing in Wisconsin, she shares her abode with her family and a mysterious cat who may just have the power to control the weather.
Ready to embark on this thrilling journey and maybe snag a signed copy while at it? Join us at Studio Moonfall on October 27. Dive deep into the world of “The Queen of Days” and let Greta Kelly transport you into her mesmerizing world of gunpowder fantasy. See you there! 📚✨🌙
