Ren Hutchings recommends
Down in the Sea of Angels (2025)
Khan Wong
"Khan Wong brings past and future into intimate conversation with this thought-provoking and ultimately hopeful novel, weaving together three very different lives across time. Down in the Sea of Angels is a poignant exploration of the resilience of compassion, humanity's (re)connection with the earth, and the bright beacon of community in dark times."
Lady Eve's Last Con (2024)
Rebecca Fraimow
"Lady Eve's Last Con is the charming, space-hopping, queer rom-com of your dreams! Drop Ocean's 8 into Fhloston Paradise, stir in a quirky sapphic romance, sprinkle with a host of deliciously daring schemes and witty characters, and imbibe this glittering delight of a debut."
These Burning Stars (2023)
(Kindom Trilogy, book 1)
Bethany Jacobs
"With a cast of deliciously dangerous characters and a gloriously executed plot that twists like a knife, this propulsive debut heralds the start of a sweeping space opera saga in the vein of Ann Leckie and Alastair Reynolds. Bethany Jacobs is an ingenious worldbuilder and a stunning new voice to look out for in sci-fi."
