Peace looms—but not for long.
The Guns of Empire
Fantasy · Epic Fantasy · Sword and Sorcery
Our take
Peace looms—but not for long. In The Guns of Empire, Queen Raesinia seeks diplomacy while General Janus sees only holy war. With soldiers torn between loyalty and truth, and dark magic rising from the depths of Elysium, the fourth Shadow Campaigns novel is a tense, explosive march toward a reckoning that could reshape the world.
Choose your retailer
About the book
The war may be ending—but peace is far from guaranteed.
Vordan’s enemies have suffered crushing defeats, and Queen Raesinia is ready to broker a fragile peace. But General Janus bet Vhalnich refuses to believe the Sworn Church will ever relent. He insists their holy war is absolute—and that the Priests of the Black will fight to the last heretic.
Now, soldiers Marcus d’Ivoire and Winter Ihernglass must choose between the queen who champions diplomacy and the general who marches toward a final, brutal conflict. Each must weigh loyalty against conviction—and face the terrible costs of defiance.
As diplomacy falters and darkness stirs in the heart of Elysium, Vordan’s fate hangs by a thread. The next battle could shatter everything.
And something monstrous is waking.

The Thousand Names
Fantasy · LGBTQIA+
Our take
In this explosive start to the Shadow Campaigns series, muskets clash with magic in a sweeping tale of war, identity, and ambition. A disguised soldier, a weary captain, and a brilliant, secretive commander march into rebellion—and possibly something far darker.

Enter Colonel Janus bet Vhalnich—enigmatic, brilliant, and possibly dangerous. As he leads the tattered Vordanai forces on an audacious campaign, whispers of the supernatural rise from the sands. And Marcus and Winter must decide: follow orders, or confront a power that could upend the known world.
The first book in Django Wexler’s Shadow Campaigns series is a sweeping military fantasy where strategy, sorcery, and secrets collide.

Our take
Davi finally ended the cycle of failure—by becoming the Dark Lord. But her armies want blood, a duke plots rebellion, and the time loop isn’t done with her yet. Between ancient magic and an angry girlfriend, saving the kingdom might kill her one last time. Everybody Wants to Rule the World Except Me is wicked, witty fantasy at its endgame.

Caught between destiny, destruction, and a very angry girlfriend, Davi faces her greatest challenge yet: fixing the world she broke.
Everybody Wants to Rule the World Except Me delivers a sharp, bloody, and darkly funny finale to Django Wexler’s acclaimed duology.

Tithe

Our take
Kaye thought she was just a rebellious teen with a chaotic life—until she’s caught in a deadly fae war that’s anything but a fairy tale. In Tithe, Holly Black delivers sharp-edged magic, twisted faerie courts, and a fierce heroine who doesn't play by the rules.

Discover the dark and seductive realm of faerie in the first book of New York Times bestseller Holly Black’s critically acclaimed Modern Faerie Tales series, where one girl must save herself from the sinister magic of the fey courts, and protect her heart in the process.

But Kaye’s life takes another turn when she stumbles upon an injured faerie knight in the woods. Kaye has always been able to see faeries where others could not, and she chooses to save the strange young man instead of leaving him to die.
But this fateful choice will have more dire consequences than she could ever predict, as Kaye soon finds herself the unwilling pawn in an ancient and violent power struggle between two rival faerie kingdoms—a struggle that could very well mean her death.

Shield of Sparrows
Jaime's Picks · Romantasy · Epic Fantasy
Our take
A forgotten princess. A cursed realm. A monster hunter who loathes her. Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry (4.5 stars on Amazon!) is a slow-burn romantasy perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Rebecca Yarros. If you crave forced proximity, ancient monsters, and a heroine who finally refuses to kneel, grab this high-stakes fantasy now.
Choose your retailer
About the book
The gods sent monsters to remind mortals to kneel—and Princess Soreya has done exactly that. To her father. To her crown. To a future she never chose.
But everything changes the day a monster hunter arrives at her father’s court, a blood treaty is sealed, and Soreya is forced into a political marriage that binds her to a war-torn realm and a husband she can’t trust.
Now she’s crossing cursed lands with a warrior who resents her, hunted by creatures born of ancient wrath. Everyone wants to use her—as a queen, a pawn, a sacrifice.
But Soreya isn’t playing along. Not anymore.
Shield of Sparrows is a slow-burn romantasy full of enemies-to-lovers tension, court intrigue, and the kind of heroine who finds power in being underestimated—and dares to reach for it.

"Takes the old saying 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em,' to the next level. A sarcastic, action-packed, intrigue-filled (mis)adventure. One of the funniest books I've read in a long time."--Matt Dinniman, author of Dungeon Crawler Carl
Davi has done this all before. She’s tried to be the hero and take down the all-powerful Dark Lord. A hundred times she’s rallied humanity and made the final charge. But the time loop always gets her in the end. Sometimes she’s killed quickly. Sometimes it takes a while. But she’s been defeated every time.
This time? She’s done being the hero and done being stuck in this endless time loop. If the Dark Lord always wins, then maybe that’s who she needs to be. It’s Davi’s turn to play on the winning side.

About the book
Every month, a dragon comes. Every month, a child disappears. Kalma calls it fate. Semra calls it a lie.
Stolen as a child and raised by a dragonlord deep in the mountains, Semra was trained to be a killer—one of many. But at seventeen, she uncovers a truth that turns her entire world upside down: she’s not fighting evil… she is the evil.
Now she’s done taking orders. To stop the dragonlord, Semra must betray everything she’s ever known—and take on the assassins she once called family.
With kingdoms on the brink of war, Dragon’s Kiss kicks off a no-spice fantasy series bursting with dragons, danger, and a heroine with blades and backbone. One girl. One rebellion. And the fire to bring it all down.
