==Setting==
''Stonehaven'' is a series of graphic novels and prose novels set in a contemporary urban fantasy city of the same name, in which mythical creatures live openly alongside humans. The individual stories tend to be multi-genre (crime thrillers, adventure, mystery) within this fantasy environment and use a rotating ensemble cast of characters.
The series takes place in a world that is geologically identical to Earth, consisting of the same continents and land masses, but with an alternative history that is significantly different from reality. The city of Stonehaven is geographically and structurally similar to New York City. Politically, Stonehaven is a city-state that covers a large area comparable to New York state, Connecticut, Rhode Island, large sections of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. The stories to date have focused on the metropolitan area.
The alternative history of this world is that of a diverse pagan society in which magic and mythical creatures, such as elves, ogres and dwarves, have always existed openly alongside humans. As a result, they are treated as common-place and almost mundane within the contemporary environment. However, their existence has had a significant impact on political and scientific advancements. The most notably covered so far has been the stymieing of ‘secular’ medicine in the wake of politically powerful pagan faith healing.
