Lina Rather recommends
The Iron Garden Sutra (2026)
(Cosmic Wheel, book 1)
A D Sui
"The Iron Garden Sutra is a wonderful puzzlebox of a novel that is alternatively heartbreaking and joyous. It expertly balances the mystery of the ghostly Counsel of Nicaea with the mystery of Vessel Iris's past, and I was entranced as both unfolded across the book. The Iron Garden Sutra is also truly interested in religion and what it means to devote oneself to a religious life, and the world A.D. Sui has built around these ideas is fascinating. I loved seeing the universe of this novel slowly unfurl as more about the Starlit Order was revealed, and I'll be eagerly awaiting the next book in the series."
Winter's Orbit (2021)
(Winter's Orbit, book 1)
Everina Maxwell
"Winter's Orbit manages the incredible feat of being the slow burn 'sad spaceboys in love' romance of your dreams, while also being a gripping political thriller. Maxwell has built a deeply-layered and fascinating universe filled with alien tech, complex imperial politics, and perilous intergalactic diplomacy. I stayed up all night reading, desperately rooting for Kiem and Jainan to finally hold hands and save the day."
Sun-Daughters, Sea-Daughters (2021)
Aimee Ogden
"Sun-Daughters, Sea-Daughters draws you in with its fascinating look at families, gender, and biology in a hauntingly alien far future, before breaking your heart with aching nostalgia and then putting it back together with a bittersweet hope."
