Metal from Heaven (2024)
August Clarke
"This is industrial fantasy like you've never read before. With prose that drips like honey and burns like a forge, Metal from Heaven is all hungry revenge, human tenderness, and bloody political intrigue. August Clarke does something new here, and I can't wait for more!"

The Mercy of Gods (2024)
(Captive's War, book 1)
James S A Corey
"ver wonder what happens after the alien invasion? The Mercy of Gods radiates the dread and revelation of first contact, shaping new worlds and cultures that had me riveted. Characters to root for and disdain, Corey's novel delves into the human condition as that condition irrevocably changes. These guys are on their game, and I can't wait until the next book in the series!"

Lady Eve's Last Con (2024)
Rebecca Fraimow
"Lady Eve had me hooked from page 1. Charming and funny, smart and unique, Fraimow's novel is perfect for fans of Becky Chambers who want fascinating worldbuilding with unforgettable characters. Ruthi and Sol will have you pining, cheering, and rolling your eyes in utter delight. A must read."
