Moses Ose Utomi recommends

Daedalus Is Dead (2025)
Seamus Sullivan
"Daedalus is Dead is a poetic requiem, written in sturdy, buoyant prose that ferries you across brilliantly reimagined Greek mythology to deliver you to the shores of a story about love and fatherhood and the endless maze of the human heart. A stunning debut; Sullivan has achieved something special here."

In the Shadow of the Fall (2024)
(Guardians of the Gods, book 1)
Tobi Ogundiran
"Ogundiran unveils a world that is both in recovery and on the cusp of collapse, a brilliant tension that he reinforces with a propulsive plot, dynamic imagery, and a protagonist who holds within her the seeds of hope. I'm already looking forward to book two."
