The Changeling Queen (2025)
Kimberly Bea
"The Changeling Queen is an imaginative, sensual retelling of the legend of Tam Lin, this time from the point of view of the Queen of Faerie, exploring the multiple mysteries at the center of her court. The book evokes a timeless medieval world of faeries, nobles, and peasants, and their uneasy relationships. Our heroine lives on the borders between all these worlds, where she must learn when to be honest, and when to wear a mask, when to be kind, and when to be cruel. A must-read for fans of magic and myth."

The Widow Queen (2021)
(Bold, book 1)
Elżbieta Cherezińska
"A fascinating and forgotten corner of history . . . Cherezinska brings to life a world of violence and beauty, superstition and intrigue."

The Witch's Heart (2021)
Genevieve Gornichec
"This fascinating novel approaches Norse mythology from a brand new perspective; here old villains are now heroes, and the motivations of gods, giants, and witches are rarely what they seem Gornichec plumbs the depths of what we will endure for family, belonging, and meaning, and traces the limits of love, friendship, and vengeance."
