Cruel Is the Light (2025)
(Cruel Is the Light, book 1)
Sophie Clark
"Cruel is the Light is a sucker punch to the heart, packed with action, secrets, betrayal and whip-smart banter in a world that is both bleak and beautiful in equal measures. A story of forbidden love with yearning so keen it could cut. Bound to be your next romantasy obsession."
thumb
The Teller of Small Fortunes (2024)
Julie Leong
"A warm hug of a book. The Teller of Small Fortunes is a curative journey of found friendship and diaspora feels, steeped in so much kindness that even the most cynical of readers will not be able to resist its charms."
thumb
Gallus (2024)
E M Faulds, Brian Milton and Neil Williamson
"A joy to read!"
