The City That Would Eat the World (2025)
(More Gods Than Stars, book 1)

The Outcast Mage (2025)
(Shattered Lands , book 1)
Annabel Campbell
"The Outcast Mage is a spectacular debut, full of heart and magic, with complex, courageous characters and a blossoming underdog you cannot help but cheer on. Campbell is a shining new talent in fantasy."
