Lucy Steeds recommends
thumb
The Shock of the Light (2026)
Lori Inglis Hall
"A poignant, compulsive story of the forces which bind us together and wrench us apart. Sweeping yet intimate, The Shock of the Light paints a vivid picture using a miniaturist's brush on a wide canvas. Full of surprise, intrigue, and delight."
thumb
Beasts of the Sea (2025)
Iida Turpeinen
"A sprawling, seething epic which intertwines the mysteries of the natural world with their destruction when myth and man collide. A delicately woven tale of exploration and exploitation; a sharp cry to protect what is precious in the world before it vanishes."
thumb
Greater Sins (2025)
Gabrielle Griffiths
"Beguiling and elegiac, Greater Sins unravels a tale of mystery and longing in captivating, unfurling prose that completely absorbs you. A book to sink into."
