Betrayed, enslaved and stripped of everything he owned, including the shirt on his back, the ancient elf called Tez finds himself bought by Maria the Beast-Kin, a woman who appears mostly human but is really the product of a wizard's alchemy. While trying to discover his eventual fate, Tez finds himself drawn into the mystery of this wizard's familiar turned landed lady. What does she want with him and why does she act far younger than she appears?
Together these two outcasts form a tentative alliance and then a deep partnership. By turns erotic, adventurous and philosophical, Unexpected Diversions explores Tez and Maria's deepening relationship, as one of them tries to atone for the evils he has done and the other pays a steep price to obtain the only true form of immortality.
