Hope and Red
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Fantasy Adventure
Our take
Vengeance and survival collide when two very different outcasts find the empire closing in around them. In Hope and Red, a village massacre leaves Hope training in secret for revenge, while Red relies on theft, charm, and instinct to stay alive in the city’s underworld. Their paths turn this fantasy adventure into a story of rebellion, found purpose, and unlikely partnership against imperial violence.

About the book
"Skovron's eye for characterization and situations is exceptional" in an action-packed fantasy novella that makes for a "compelling coming-of-age yarn" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).
Hope's old life ended the night her entire village was massacred by the emperor's forces. Now, trained in secret by a master warrior, her new life is centered on only one goal: vengeance.
Red lives by the skin of his teeth and sharpness of his wit. An expert thief and a brilliant con artist, he cares for only one thing: a good time. But when the empire's soldiers start to encroach on his territory, taking down his friends with it, he may have to re-prioritize.
Together, they will take down an empire.

About the book
Dive into a world where magic lies hidden just below the surface in this charming urban fantasy full of workplace found family, queer romance, and supernatural creatures straight out of Southeast Asian lore, from debut author Jared Poon.
In the sunny city of Singapore, the government takes care of everything—even the weird stuff.
Benjamin Toh is a middle manager in the Division for Engagement of Unusual Stakeholders (DEUS), and his job is straightforward: keep the supernatural inhabitants of Singapore happy and keep them out of sight. That is, don’t bother the good, normal citizens, and certainly don’t bother the bosses. Sure, he's overworked and understaffed, but usually, people (and senior management) don’t see what they don’t want to see.
But when an entire housing estate glitches out of existence on what was meant to be a routine check-in, Ben has to scramble to keep things under control and stop the rest of the city from disappearing. He may not have the budget or the bandwidth, but he has the best—if highly irregular and supernaturally inclined—team to help him. Together, they’ll traverse secret shadow markets, scale skyscrapers, and maybe even go to the stars, all so they can just do their goddamn job.

A power she cannot control is the one thing that could save or destroy everything she touches.
Nine Tailed
Fairy Tale · Romantasy · Paranormal Romance
Our take
A power she cannot control is the one thing that could save or destroy everything she touches. In Nine Tailed, Sunny Cho hides her identity as a fox spirit until a past connection pulls her back into danger. As she and Ethan confront murder, myth, and rising darkness, their bond shifts into something deeper in this friends to lovers romantasy shaped by Korean folklore.
Choose your retailer
About the book
An enemy on her tails, an innocent at her side, and a dangerous power within her that could destroy them all. Jayci Lee melds Korean folklore with modern Americana in this fiery new series.
Sunny Cho aspires to be the dullest, least interesting person in any given room, which can be challenging for a nine-tailed fox spirit. So she drifts from city to city—staying clear of any and all attachment—and keeps her fox buried deep inside her. It is better this way. She would rather live as half of herself than risk losing control of her terrible powers.
Ethan Lee, a friend she left behind eight years ago, is a brilliant and distractingly hot PI. When he tracks her down and asks her to help him find his brother’s murderer, Sunny knows her uneventful life is about to be turned upside down.
Traversing the mortal realm and the world of gods, Sunny and Ethan discover their quest is much more dire than mere vengeance, and their friendship might be…more. An ancient evil is stirring, and Sunny is faced with an impossible choice: save the worlds from annihilation or claim the love fated by the heavens.

Peace in Kavet depends on fear, and one accusation is enough to pull a loyal captain into the very darkness he was trained to destroy.
Of the Abyss
Fantasy · Dark Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Fantasy Adventure · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Peace in Kavet depends on fear, and one accusation is enough to pull a loyal captain into the very darkness he was trained to destroy. In Of the Abyss, Hansa Viridian is forced into an uneasy alliance with a half-Abyssi man he does not trust and cannot stop wanting. This is a dark fantasy with forbidden magic, political danger, and a descent into a realm where survival demands impossible choices.
Choose your retailer
About the book
After decades of strife, peace has finally been achieved in Kavet—but at a dark cost. Sorcery is outlawed, and anyone convicted of consorting with the beings of the other realms—the Abyssi and the Numini—is put to death. The only people who can even discuss such topics legally are the scholars of the Order of the Napthol, who give counsel when questions regarding the supernatural planes arise.
Hansa Viridian, a captain in the elite guard unit tasked with protecting Kavet from sorcery, has always led a respectable life. But when he is implicated in a sorcerer's crimes, the only way to avoid execution is to turn to the Abyss for help—specifically, to a half-Abyssi man he's sworn he hates, but whose physical attraction he cannot deny.
Hansa is only the first victim in a plot that eventually drags him, a sorcerer named Xaz, and a Sister of the Napthol named Cadmia into the depths of the Abyss, where their only hope of escape is to complete an infernal task that might cost them their lives.

A fire dragon gives Nara the chance to avenge her father, but the hunt she has always wanted begins to expose a history built on lies.

Our take
A remote farm, a vanished guardian, and one unforgettable night by the sea turn The Cove into a folk horror story steeped in isolation and dread.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Midsommar meets Fear Street in this modern, sea-soaked folk horror debut about fighting to survive, and fighting to be yourself.
Seventeen-year-old Lindsay Weinberg has just gotten kicked out of another prep school, and has consequently found herself shipped to her Uncle Levi's farm in the cold, isolated town of Marbury, Maine.
When Lindsay arrives at a big, old farmhouse miles from civilization, she is greeted by her uncle’s new wife, a goy with a little too much Jesus decor for Lindsay’s taste—with Uncle Levi mysteriously away on a business trip. Not only that, but Lindsay isn’t the only teen staying there. In fact, there is a small group of teens going through some kind of reform program. Up at dawn. Manual labor all day. No phones, computers or tablets.
Things start to feel hopeless until Lindsay meets the twins, Phin and Cass. They live on an island off the Peninsula’s coast—and they have internet. Lindsay convinces the others at Haven House to sneak out for a party on the island, and the night is incredible. At least…what they can remember of it. All of them wake up in their beds with sea-shell mementos, no memory of how they got home, and wicked hangovers. All of them except one. And as the disappearances and mysteries pile up, Lindsay and the others realize that they have become involved in a terrifying fight to survive, before the Cove claims them all.

Recovery never lasts long for Harry Dresden, especially when an old debt pulls him into a favor for a man he would rather avoid.
Out Law
Fantasy · Urban Fantasy
Our take
Recovery never lasts long for Harry Dresden, especially when an old debt pulls him into a favor for a man he would rather avoid. In Out Law, a reluctant job for Marcone forces Harry to protect someone he does not trust while facing a demonic threat tied to one of his own past decisions. This novella delivers sharp supernatural tension, hard-earned fallout, and fast-moving urban fantasy action.
Choose your retailer
About the book
The past comes back in a big way for Chicago’s only professional wizard in this action-packed novella from the #1 New York Times–bestselling Dresden Files.
In a city that’s just beginning to recover from the devastation caused by the Battle of Chicago, Harry Dresden is finally pulling himself together as well. He’s ensconced in his own personal castle, healing his various wounds and training an eager new apprentice. The last thing he wants is any trouble. But, as history has consistently—and quite annoyingly—shown, what Harry wants is rarely what Harry gets.
It starts with a visit from Harry’s most powerful frenemy, Gentleman John Marcone, Baron of Chicago. He needs Harry to assist in the redemption of an underling who’s looking to go straight. And since Harry does kinda sorta owe Marcone for saving his life once (stupid honorable debt!), it’s not a request he can refuse. He’ll just wish he had.
Because this little favor is going to drag Harry into a fight he doesn’t want on behalf of a lowlife he doesn’t trust against an enemy more powerful and pestilent than he ever could’ve expected: an insatiable, demonic foe whom Harry himself may have created when he wiped out the vampires of the Red Court so long ago.
Before, all it wanted was blood. Now it wants the entire world . . .
“Butcher checks all the boxes when it comes to satisfying readers’ expectations. The paranormal fantasy elements are on point . . . The author maintains the exciting pacing and intensity throughout, powering the narrative with an abundance of high-octane action sequences . . . Dresden fans will enjoy this bite-sized supernatural adventure.” —Kirkus Reviews
“A great series—fast-paced, vividly realized and with a hero/narrator who’s excellent company.” —Cinescape

Death follows every kiss, and Harlow has built her life around making sure the right men die.
The Poison Daughter
Romantasy · Dark Fantasy
Our take
Death follows every kiss, and Harlow has built her life around making sure the right men die. In The Poison Daughter, Harlow Carrenwell serves as both assassin and vigilante until the one man she cannot kill becomes her husband. This dark fantasy romance pairs a lethal heroine, arranged marriage tension, and looming family conspiracy with a blood-dark edge.
Choose your retailer
About the book
To err is human. To avenge is Divine.
Every person Harlow Carrenwell kisses dies immediately, and that’s the way she likes it. The poison-lipped youngest daughter of Lunameade’s magical founding family has used her power to annihilate their opposition.
Her first husband is in the ground. Her new betrothed is next.
But the merry widow has a secret. When she’s not acting as an assassin at her parents' whims, she moonlights as a vigilante for abused women in their walled-off city.
Meet a man. Lure him in. Kill him with a kiss. Until one night Harlow kisses a mark and he doesn’t die.
Worse, her invincible partner in passion is her new betrothed, Henry Havenwood, and now he knows about her double life. Instead of selling her out and bringing the rival families to blows, he does something much more sinister—whisks her away to wed in his wild mountain fort.
Harlow doesn’t trust Henry, but the only way to protect her family and the city of Lunameade is to figure out what his family is planning.
Cursed with a husband she can’t kill and trapped in a fort miles of vampire-infested woods from home, Harlow’s survival requires her to do the impossible: Make the man who knows she’s a killer fall in love with her anyway.
The Poison Daughter is a standalone dark fantasy romance that combines the vigilante justice for abusive men of Promising Young Woman with a romantasy arranged marriage and a dash of vampires.
