SILK FIRE

This novel is more interesting for its setting, Jadzia, a city the size of a planet, than its story. Split into sectors, each dedicated to a different now-dead god, with its own language and prioritising of a different skill, it’s a fascinating place.

THE BALLAD OF PERILOUS GRAVES

Some stories are just too big for a single book to contain. When an author has effectively invented a whole world (or substantially reworked an existing one), you can hardly blame them for wanting to share as much of it as they can.

THE SPLENDID CITY

As the cost of living crisis accelerates in the real world, The Splendid City is very timely: a story set in Liberty, a country formed after Texas secedes from the USA, where water is rationed and the shortages always blamed on someone else, while the President distracts the population with random giveaways and cheap nougats.

THE PATH OF THORNS
