She’s an assassin.
Dragonhart
Romantasy
Our take
She’s an assassin. He’s the enemy. And dragons might be their only hope. Abbie Eaton’s Dragonhart is the 2025 fantasy debut drawing raves from fans of Fourth Wing and Throne of Glass. With enemies-to-lovers tension, forced proximity, and a stabby heroine you’ll root for, this 4.1-star hit is pure romantasy magic. The dragons are calling—are you ready?

About the book
The dragons are gone. The kingdoms are collapsing. And Arla Reinhart? She’s not here to play nice.
As the King’s personal assassin, Arla lives by two rules: don’t trust anyone, and never forget who killed your family. But when royal shipments vanish and the gods go suspiciously silent, Arla’s forced into a mission she didn’t choose—alongside the one man she hates most: Hark Stappen, an infuriating ambassador from the kingdom that stole everything from her.
Together, they’ll dine with royals, fight through taverns, and uncover truths that could bring back dragons—or end what’s left of the world.
Expect banter, betrayal, magic, and slow-burn rage-to-romance in this fantasy debut that’s already drawing comparisons to Fourth Wing and Throne of Glass.
She wanted revenge. What she found could burn kingdoms.

About the book
First in the cult classic trilogy: "A fantastic zombie novel . . . There are many layers to this zombie apocalypse, and this book just gets things rolling" (Booklist).
Welcome to New York City, Population Zero? The power grid has collapsed. There is no running water, no light, no heat. The massive neon signs of Times Square are dark now, and the subway trains crouch silent in their tunnels, waiting for commuters who will never return. An epidemic of staggering lethality has passed over the city and left nothing living in its wake. And yet the city is not deserted. The dead have returned to life, and they're hungry. The millions of people who once worked and lived in New York have been turned into cannibalistic monsters whose only function is to consume. No living person would dare enter the city--it would be suicide. Dekalb doesn't have a choice. He must protect his daughter's future, and that means retrieving vital medical supplies from the UN building in Midtown. A cadre of teenage girl soldiers have been recruited to help him find what he needs, and get back alive. They're well armed. They're devoted to their mission and willing to sacrifice anything to pull it off. But the odds against them are staggering. Especially when it turns out that not all zombies are created equal. Deep inside the city a medical student named Gary comes back from the dead different--his mind is intact. He can still think and feel. He's hungry, just like the rest, but unlike them he can plan, plot, and scheme. He can even lead the others, bending them to his will. Soon he has a small army at his command, a growing mob of rotting corpses all devoted to one cause: to find meat for their master. When Dekalb and Gary cross paths sparks will fly, destinies will clash--and the future of humanity will be decided, one head shot at a time.

The Forest of Lost Souls
Psychological Thriller
Our take
Raised in the wilderness, Vida wants peace, but the official story behind José’s death doesn’t add up. As powerful men in Kettleton County come for her next, Vida turns to the forest, its wolves, and her own fierce resolve to uncover the truth, with a 4.5-star rating from more than 21,800 Amazon reviewers. A strong match for readers drawn to psychological thrillers with mythic undertones, nature, revenge, and good versus evil.

About the book
A fearless woman, raised in the forest, fights against a group of powerful men in a novel about good versus evil, the enduring nature of myth, and the power of love by #1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz.
Raised in the wilderness by her late great-uncle, Vida is a young woman with an almost preternatural affinity for nature, especially for the wolves that also call the forested mountains home. Formed by hard experience, by love and loss, and by the prophecies of a fortuneteller, Vida just wants peace. If only nearby Kettleton County didn’t cast such a dark shadow.
It’s where José Nochelobo, the love of Vida’s life and a cherished local hero, died in a tragic accident. That’s the official story, but Vida has reasons to doubt it. The truth can’t be contained for long. Nor can the hungry men of power in Kettleton who want something too: that Vida, like José, disappear forever. One by one they come for her, prepared to do anything to see their plans through to their evil end. Vida is no less prepared for them.
Vida, the forest, and its formidable wonders are waiting. She will not rest until goodness and order have been restored.

Kidnapped by fae.
The Savage Fae’s Mate
Romantasy
Our take
Kidnapped by fae. Hunted for sport. Claimed by their dangerously sexy leader. Lola Glass’s The Savage Fae’s Mate kicks off the Wild Hunt series with 4.2 Amazon stars, steamy romance, and a heroine who doesn’t go down without a fight. Fae obsession meets laugh-out-loud moments in this spicy standalone. Warning: mating bonds ahead.
Choose your retailer
About the book
One wish. One wild mistake. One dangerously possessive fae.
I tossed a penny into a fountain and accidentally summoned the freaking Wild Hunt. Next thing I know, I’m kidnapped, dragged into Faerie, and “turned” into one of them—just in time to be hunted for sport.
Surviving their chase is one thing. Escaping the Hunt’s ruthless leader? That’s another story entirely. He offers to protect me… but there’s a price. Me.
Now I’m stuck with a savage, gorgeous, utterly infuriating fae who’s convinced I’m his mate—and he's not taking no for an answer.
Turns out, the Wild Hunt was just the warm-up. The real danger? Falling for the guy who claims to own my heart.
Welcome to Faerie. Hope you like your romance hot and your fae hotter.

About the book
A USA Today bestseller!
Set in a world of goblin wars, stag-sized battle ravens, and assassins who kill with deadly tattoos, Christopher Buehlman's The Blacktongue Thief begins a 'dazzling' (Robin Hobb) fantasy adventure unlike any other.
Kinch Na Shannack owes the Takers Guild a small fortune for his education as a thief, which includes (but is not limited to) lock-picking, knife-fighting, wall-scaling, fall-breaking, lie-weaving, trap-making, plus a few small magics. His debt has driven him to lie in wait by the old forest road, planning to rob the next traveler that crosses his path.
But today, Kinch Na Shannack has picked the wrong mark.
Galva is a knight, a survivor of the brutal goblin wars, and handmaiden of the goddess of death. She is searching for her queen, missing since a distant northern city fell to giants.
Unsuccessful in his robbery and lucky to escape with his life, Kinch now finds his fate entangled with Galva's. Common enemies and uncommon dangers force thief and knight on an epic journey where goblins hunger for human flesh, krakens hunt in dark waters, and honor is a luxury few can afford.
“The Blacktongue Thief is fast and fun and filled with crazy magic. I can't wait to see what Christopher Buehlman does next." - Brent Weeks, New York Times bestselling author of the Lightbringer series

The Twelve are gone.
The City of Mirrors
Dystopian · Sci-Fi · Post-Apocalyptic
Our take
The Twelve are gone. But Zero—the First—isn’t finished. The City of Mirrors brings Justin Cronin’s bestselling trilogy to a staggering close. With 4.6 stars on Amazon, this finale blends literary beauty with post-apocalyptic terror. As Amy prepares for the final reckoning, light and darkness collide. Stephen King calls it “one of the great achievements in American fantasy fiction.”
Choose your retailer
About the book
The world fell. The monsters ruled. The Twelve are dead—but the First still waits.
A century of darkness is ending. Amy, the Girl from Nowhere, has become humanity’s final light. But far from the hopeful rebuild, in the ruins of a dead city, Zero—the origin of the viral plague—broods. His heartbreak forged apocalypse. His rage could finish it.
As survivors step into fragile sunlight, Amy and her friends must face one last, impossible reckoning. The fate of the world depends on whether she can stop a being who was once a man—and who still remembers love.
The City of Mirrors delivers the sweeping, devastating conclusion to The Passage trilogy—part horror epic, part literary masterwork, and all-consuming from first page to last.
The end is here. Who will survive it?

Growing up as Roseanne Barr’s daughter, Jenny Pentland had a front-row seat to fame—and its fallout.
This Will Be Funny Later
Biographies & Memoirs
Our take
Growing up as Roseanne Barr’s daughter, Jenny Pentland had a front-row seat to fame—and its fallout. This Will Be Funny Later is a darkly hilarious memoir about brat camps, anxiety, and finding normal in a life that was anything but. With 4.5 stars on Amazon, this brutally honest coming-of-age story is equal parts chaos, comedy, and catharsis.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Jenny Pentland grew up inside a sitcom. Literally. Her early family life became the inspiration for her mom’s mega-hit show Roseanne. But behind the scenes, it wasn’t all punchlines and laugh tracks.
Fame shoved the Pentland family from working-class Denver to the chaos of Hollywood, where Jenny faced relentless public scrutiny, anxiety, and a whirlwind of self-help institutions she never asked to attend. Rehab? Check. Fat camp? Also check. Drugs? Never touched them.
Told with biting humor and brutal honesty, This Will Be Funny Later is a coming-of-age memoir like no other—a sharp, funny, and fearless look at growing up famous, surviving the weirdest parts of the self-improvement era, and finding peace in a life far from the spotlight.
This time, Jenny writes her own story. And it’s hilarious.

A letter. A wish. A name. In Owen King’s eerie short story Letter Slot, a desperate teen makes a haunting bargain to save his mother. Part of The Shivers collection and rated 4.2 stars on Amazon, this bite-sized tale delivers one unsettling twist after another. Once you open the slot, there’s no going back.

About the book
What would you trade for a miracle?
Desperate to save his ailing mother, a teenage boy writes a heartfelt letter and slips it through the mail slot of an abandoned model home. He never expects an answer—let alone a bargain. One name, the letter says. Just write down someone you hate, and good fortune will follow.
At first, it feels like harmless superstition. But as the promise begins to take shape, so does the price. Because in this haunting short story by New York Times bestselling author Owen King, wishes don’t come free—and someone always pays.
The Shivers collection specializes in quiet dread, and Letter Slot is no exception.
Sometimes, the smallest decisions unlock the darkest doors.
