The Book of Lamps and Banners (2020)
(Cass Neary, book 4)
Elizabeth Hand
"With each new book, Elizabeth Hand's great creation Cass Neary grows more complex, and fascinating. She's tough, smart, f*cked up. And I love her. If you've been following her since Generation Loss, you already know all this. If you haven't, read this book."

The Unwilling (2020)
(Barrier Lands, book 1)
Kelly Braffet
"Wow...The characters, the world, the magic and greed and politics and pain--all of it adds up to something wonderful. I love it."

A Cosmology of Monsters (2019)
Shaun Hamill
