Seanan McGuire recommends
How to Become the Dark Lord (and Die Trying) (2024)
(Dark Lord Davi, book 1)
Django Wexler
"Fast-paced, brilliantly raunchy, unforgettable. The Pratchett-esque American isekai you didn't know you wanted. My favorite read of the year."
Dual Memory (2023)
Sue Burke
"Sue Burke only gets better and better. She is a genuine if unsung hero of our genre."
Infinity Gate (2023)
(Pandominion, book 1)
M R Carey
"This is gripping, unrelenting, and absolutely unique. Carey is working at the absolute top of his game."
