Adam Christopher recommends
Southern Gods (2011)
John Hornor Jacobs
"In SOUTHERN GODS, John Hornor Jacobs turns the classic blues horror story of the devil at the crossroads into a true Lovecraftian nightmare. Steeped in Southern Gothic - and not for the faint of heart! - this is a bold and mighty debut written with breathtaking assurance. Powerful, horrific and beautiful, Southern Gods is a revelation and Jacobs is an author to shout about. Both deserve to go very far indeed."
Blackbirds (2012)
(Miriam Black, book 1)
Chuck Wendig
"Mean, moody and mysterious, Blackbirds is a noir joyride peppered with black humour, wry observation, and visceral action. Fans of Chuck Wendig will not be disappointed."
Between Two Thorns (2013)
(Split Worlds, book 1)
Emma Newman
"With a feather-light touch, Emma Newman has crafted a very English fantasy, one brilliantly realised and quite delightful, weaving magic, mystery and parallel worlds together with ease. Newman may well be one of our brightest stars, The Split Worlds: Between Two Thorns just the beginning of a remarkable journey."
The Copper Promise (2014)
(Copper Cat Trilogy, book 1)
Jen Williams
"Fresh and exciting, full of wit and wonder and magic and action, The Copper Promise is *the* fantasy novel we've been waiting for."

Defender (2017)

Kevin Hearne

Five Minds (2021)
Guy Morpuss
"Thrilling dystopian sci-fi meets twisty murder mystery in this mind-bendingly original debut. Five Minds is nothing short of a cross-genre masterpiece."
Absynthe (2021)
Brendan P Bellecourt
"A heady, addictive cocktail of retro-futurism and high-stakes thriller, Absynthe is fantastical sci-fi at its very best."
Don't Know Tough (2022)
