The Tainted Cup (2024)
(Shadow of the Leviathan, book 1)
Robert Jackson Bennett
"I loved this. A twisty detective story, a weird fantasy, a thrilling adventure - The Tainted Cup is a masterstroke. I want Bennett to write a dozen of these, and send them to me yesterday."
thumb
The Navigating Fox (2023)
Christopher Rowe
"Whimsical, rakish, and touching--and also there are talking raccoons!"
thumb
The Saint of Bright Doors (2023)
Vajra Chandrasekera
"Riveting, surreal, clever and wise and all-too real--a breathtaking achievement."
