A Destiny to Defy Tessalyn Ausra has been betrayed at every turn, but she’s also dealt betrayals of her own.

AudioFile: Eric Mok returns to narrate this sequel to WITCH KING, bringing back all of his wonderfully varied British accents for the large cast.

Shelf Awareness: Even in Tartarus, the great labyrinth builder reckons with the death of his son and confronts his failures as a father and a man in Seamus Sullivan's debut novella, Daedalus Is Dead.

"I think writers, like all artists, have a responsibility to act as human cultural workers in an actual society"

The winners of the 2025 World Fantasy Awards were announced and DMLA congratulates Robert Jackson Bennett! Best Novel THE TAINTED CUP, Robert Jackson Bennett (Del Rey; Hodderscape)

A young detective investigating crimes of the uncanny will learn that bargains can change your fate—for good or ill—in this darkly enthralling fantasy from the New York Times bestselling author of the Others and the Black Jewels series. Words have power. Intentions matter. Most people come to Destiny Park for entertainment. They come to have their cards read to tell them a bit about their future.

Booklist: Beth is new to the police force, a rookie member of the team that investigates unusual happenings, the things that connect with the Arcana living on the Isle of Wyrd. Her first assignment is to cross the river and look into the origins of a ghost gun in Destiny Park. She gets some answers but is left with even more questions—and the challenges of navigating the rules of the Arcana while doing her job as a detective in the human world.

Publishers Weekly: An air of dark whimsy pervades Valentin’s thoroughly entertaining debut. In the five years since Mateo Borrero’s less-than-maternal witch of a mother went missing, the 23-year-old has just been trying to get by; not helping matters is the fact that he’s possessed by a demon. Working at a print shop barely pays the bills for him and his best friend and roommate, Ophelia De La Garza, who finds it hard to hold on to a job due to her partially involuntary powers of astral projection.

Library Journal: A reclusive widower and a lonely wanderer open their hearts to love with the help of two ghosts in Wibberley and Siegemund-Broka’s latest, following Book Boyfriend. Morgan is searching for a solution for an unusual problem—she’s being haunted by the ghost of a past lover, and his supernatural disturbances are threatening her home, her current love life, and her peace of mind.

Whenever humans disobey the rules, however, Precinct 13 goes out to clean up the mess and pick up the bodies. Not every cop can hack the isle, but newcomer Beth Fahey feels like she’s come home—and the Arcane who control the isle are sure she’s theirs.
