The Iron Garden Sutra (2026)
(Cosmic Wheel, book 1)
A D Sui
"This book is atmospheric as hell! The Iron Garden Sutra has everything: space opera, horror, philosophy, mushrooms, and love in an enthralling story about a monk and a group of academics trapped on an ancient generation ship that may not be as abandoned as they think. A. D. Sui's world is lush, unique, and deliciously claustrophobic. It's still tickling my brain stem. Fans of S. A. Barnes and the movie Sunshine will eat this up. Read it!"
The King Must Die (2025)
Kemi Ashing-Giwa
"Ashing-Giwa demonstrates her master worldbuilding skills in her new dystopian science fantasy, The King Must Die. A stunning, continually surprising novel focused on friendship and the value of resisting autocracy even when it seems hopeless - it's everything I need right now. It's WILL OF THE MANY meets BLOOD OVER BRIGHT HAVEN with the earnestness of Becky Chambers."
Volatile Memory (2025)
(Volatile Memory Duology, book 1)
Seth Haddon
"A dark but tender story about love, vengeance, the masks we wear for ourselves and others, and the never-ending quest for a more perfect sense of self. It's a beautifully intimate story set in the sprawl of space, especially recommended for fans of This is How You Lose the Time War."
