There Is a Door in this Darkness (2024)
Kristin Cashore
"Cashore's work is alive to the wonder of this world - grounding you in it one aching, perfect page at a time. Wilhelmina is a mighty main character whose adventures leave an indelible glow. Also, this book has the best magical aunts ever written."

Infinity Alchemist (2024)
(Infinity Alchemist, book 1)
Kacen Callender
"Kacen Callender has story alchemy unlike any other. Central relationships twine with deeply felt magic to transmute expectations and expand the possibilities of YA fantasy. This novel introduces a world of grounded conflicts that never loses touch with our own-and boundless power that brims with possibility."
