Hekate (2025)
(Goddesses of the Underworld, book 1)
Nikita Gill
"A magical journey of survival and discovery through the Greek Underworld. Populated with unforgettable gods and titans and narrated in dream-like poetry, Hekate is a unique creation and the most original addition to the retelling genre I have read in a while."
thumb
Mere (2025)
Danielle Giles
"It is rare for an author to fully recreate the strangeness of the past, but Danielle Giles has done exactly that. Through eerie, beautiful writing, she takes readers on a mystery in Medieval Norfolk, until, like the proud, resourceful women of this novel, one can't help but be swallowed into one of the damp mouths of the mere. This is a gem of a novel."

The King's Mother (2024)
Annie Garthwaite
"It is impossible not to root for Cecily: fierce mother and ambitious power player."
