Weavingshaw (2026)
Heba Al-Wasity
"One part sumptuous Gothic mystery, another part all the yearning and coy wordplay of a Jane Austen novel . . . I adored every minute of Weavingshaw."

The Gryphon King (2025)
(Chaos Constellation, book 1)
Sara Omer
"A twisty feast of politics and fantastical beasts - I cannot wait to read more of Omer's work."
