Obstetrix (2026)
Naomi Kritzer
"An intense, day-after-tomorrow thriller... Obstetrix is worth losing sleep over, and you should absolutely plan to do so."

Everybody's Perfect (2026)
Jo Walton
"Everybody's Perfect is a love letter to a strange city and all its contradictions. It's a meditative celebration of how we create history together, whether or not we know we're doing it, and of survival through and beyond times of plague. I adore this promise that history never ends, and that everyone who's ever contributed to a better future has been as flawed and frustrated as we are."

The Affair of the Mysterious Letter (2019)
Alexis Hall
"It's difficult to express my delight in The Affair of the Mysterious Letter without falling back on semi-coherent exclamations that John Wyndam would want to discreetly summarize in gentler language. This book is so far up my alley that I discovered new, non-euclidean corners of the alley that I didn't previously know existed. The world has heretofore suffered from a sad lack of queer consulting sorceresses, prudish-yet-romantic Azathoth cultists, existentially surreal urban planning, and post-colonial Carcosan politics."
