BOOKS & COLLECTIONS
Welcome to DAE’s world of books, art, and digital creations — where every work connects creativity with compassion.
This page highlights the diverse collections and creative series developed under the DAE publishing house. From literary classics to original works of consciousness, each title embodies our values of artistry, integrity, and purpose. The page is updated periodically as new volumes and collaborations are released.
The Argent Classics Collection
The Argent Classics Collection celebrates the enduring beauty and wisdom of the world’s most beloved literary masterpieces. This curated library of sixty titles preserves the original prose and voice of the great authors whose works have shaped civilization, thought, and imagination across centuries. Each edition is designed with elegant typography and refined presentation for readers who value authenticity, scholarship, and timeless artistry.
Each volume includes original text enhanced with unique Argent commentaries, curated notes, and practical teaching aids not found elsewhere. These editions are created for both collectors and learners—offering a bridge between tradition and study, between appreciation and understanding. They serve as valuable resources for educators, students, and lifelong readers of the classics.
Distinct from The Argent Art Series, which presents interpretive retellings and rhymed adaptations, The Argent Classics Collection remains faithful to the original texts while offering a consistent visual identity under the Argent imprint. It is both a collector’s library and a living archive of humanity’s greatest stories, made to be read, revisited, and treasured for generations.
The Argent Art Series: Don Quixote Collection
Don Quixote Collection brings new life to Cervantes’ timeless masterpiece through a lyrical retelling and exquisite visual interpretations. This boutique collection features limited-edition volumes that merge art and literature in perfect harmony, designed for collectors, teachers, and lovers of the classics.
Each edition presents the rhymed retelling alongside a choice of three distinct art styles — Renaissance-inspired oil paintings that capture the grandeur of chivalric adventure, fine line etchings reminiscent of the 1600s to 1800s, and softly muted sepia illustrations echoing the tone of nineteenth-century storytelling. Together, these styles form a complete visual journey through Don Quixote’s world.
This collection features four art editions presented in a deluxe 11 x 8.5–inch volume, a super deluxe 11 x 14–inch art volume, and an Argent Classic edition featuring the original English translation by John Ormsby with modern commentary and teaching notes. Each set includes a companion art book with original Argent charcoal illustrations that bring the story vividly to life. The Argent Art Series: Don Quixote Collection is currently available exclusively through our stores and selected platforms.
The Returning Ones
The Returning Ones is an ongoing series of twenty volumes exploring the mysteries of reincarnation, memory, and the soul’s eternal journey through time. Each book reveals a tapestry of interconnected lives—where love, loss, and redemption echo across centuries, and every lifetime becomes a mirror of unfinished lessons.
The series blends narrative, philosophy, and spiritual inquiry, inviting readers to rediscover the threads that bind all beings across existence. Through story and reflection, it illuminates how the soul evolves through experience, revealing that the beggar, the queen, the victim, and the villain may all be aspects of the same spirit on its path to wholeness.
The Returning Ones stands as both story cycle and spiritual testament—a bridge between fiction and metaphysical truth. Written with depth and compassion, it invites readers to remember what has always been within them: that every ending is only a return, and every life a continuation of the same divine song.
The Unseen Pawprints Series
The Unseen Pawprints is a groundbreaking narrative series that brings to light the hidden stories of animals caught within human systems of care, commerce, and cruelty. Told through literary fiction and journalistic realism, each volume reveals the silent suffering and resilience of the voiceless—those who depend on human compassion to survive.
The series is both storytelling and advocacy, blending moral inquiry with emotional truth. It seeks to awaken awareness, empathy, and responsibility toward all living beings.
Suitable for readers aged ten and above, the books offer accessible reading for both younger and mature audiences. The art editions bring each story to life with expressive realism and gentle render art, inviting deeper emotional connection.
This series is available in boutique 11 × 8.5 art editions and minimal-art 9 × 6 novel editions.
Current Titles:
• Volume 1: The Unseen Pawprints — Silent Victims
• Volume 2: The Unseen Pawprints — Shadows Unveiled
The Animal Advocacy Collection
Complementing The Unseen Pawprints, this collection brings together eleven original series devoted to animal welfare, ethics, and environmental consciousness. Each series explores the interconnected lives of humans and animals through storytelling, journalism, and practical reflection.
The works span genres—from how-to guides and recipe books to investigative narratives and creative nonfiction—each written to raise awareness and inspire action. Drawing upon real-life rescue work and human–animal encounters, the series gives voice to those often unheard, while celebrating compassion as a living practice.
At its heart, the Animal Advocacy Collection examines social injustice as the root of both human and animal suffering, revealing how empathy, education, and conscious living can restore balance to our shared world.
These are mostly boutique publications launched in support of our charitable foundation, with proceeds directed toward the funding of animal rescue and rehabilitation efforts. We welcome corporate sponsors, influencers, and affiliates who wish to support our mission of compassion in action.
The Sardines Recipes Cookbook Series
The Sardines Cookbook Series celebrates one of the world’s most accessible and nutritious ingredients through global-fusion home cooking. This four-volume collection explores the versatility of canned and fresh sardines across Asian, Mediterranean, and contemporary kitchens—transforming a humble staple into gourmet simplicity.
Each book blends practical recipes with stories, nutritional insights, and creative adaptations that make sardines a cornerstone of sustainable eating. Designed for busy cooks, health enthusiasts, and conscious consumers, the series demonstrates how affordable food can be both elegant and nourishing.
Proceeds from this series help support our charitable foundation and community feeding initiatives. Each volume is available in both print and digital formats through selected online retailers and DAE stores.
