Shawn Vestal recommends
Fire Season (2022)
Leyna Krow
"Leyna Krow's Fire Season is an act of literary magic: A lively historical picaresque about an intertwined trio of schemers, threaded through with a compelling story of a woman forging her own otherworldly redemption out of the crude material of the 19th century American frontier."
The Memory Theater (2021)
Karin Tidbeck
"The Memory Theater is a wonder, sparkling with magic and menace. Karin Tidbeck has written a taut, engrossing fable about identity, time and home that wanders through worlds that lie hidden beyond the veil of our own."
