One morning Gilberto Rubio wakes up with a five o'clock shadow. Puberty. But why are his legs getting so furry? And what are these little horn nubs pushing out of his scalp? What's that nub of a tail that's making it so hard to sit on anything but couches? His peers begin to treat him like a freak, while his anxious mother Lupita crosses herself and worries about his eternal soul and what might be happening to it. When his mere presence begins to stir the hormones of anyone nearby and the pregnancy rate suddenly skyrockets at Buenaventura High, Gilberto panics, and hopping aboard his skateboard vanishes into Hollywood before hitchhiking out of Los Angeles to find a mysterious stranger he met online who just might have some answers. Award-winning author Trebor Healey has written a new urban fairy tale.

"Both strikingly beautiful and coarsely humorous, this engaging novel by urban fantasist Healey (Sweet Son of Pan), anchored in the sensibilities of the West Coast Mexican-American community, gives the modern bildungsroman a magical twist." -- Publishers Weekly

"Faun crashes fantasy headlong into reality, and the result might leave a bruise on your heart." Heather Seggel for The Gay & Lesbian Review

"...Trebor Healey's latest release, Faun, comes fully equipped with a confused young adult as main character and a sexually charged atmosphere. In Healey's world, Greek mythology, the Catholic religion, and Mexican culture collide in an urban setting where by focusing on ethnic characters and the Los Angeles Latino culture, his tale gains a distinct West Coast flavor." - Impressions of a Reader
