The King-Killing Queen (2023)
(King-Killing Queen, book 1)
Shawn Speakman
"A fine addition to the Speakman trove of good fantasy. Readers will rejoice."
To Shape a Dragon's Breath (2023)
(Nampeshiweisit, book 1)
Moniquill Blackgoose
"Imagine a world full of dragons where a newborn chooses you to be its caregiver. Imagine you have to go to a special school to learn how to train it. Imagine that almost no one at the school wants you there. This is how the well-written, compelling tale of To Shape a Dragon's Breath begins, and once underway it doesn't let you go."
The Art of Prophecy (2022)
(War Arts Saga, book 1)
Wesley Chu
"Wesley Chu has done it again--this time on an epic scale. The Art of Prophecy is a terrific and compelling story that plays off so many classic tales taken from our own world and reinvents them all in classic fashion."
The Starless Crown (2021)
(Moonfall, book 1)
James Rollins
"This talented storyteller moves smoothly from Thriller to Fantasy. A terrific bit of storytelling."
A Deadly Education (2020)
(Scholomance, book 1)
Naomi Novik
"A Deadly Education is a book that lives up to its gobsmacker of an opening sentence and follows right through to its shocker of an ending that promises more to come. Naomi Novik is relentlessly innovative and entertaining."
