Title: Exadelic
Author: Jon Evans
Publisher: Tor Books
Genre: Sci-fi
Release Date: September 5, 2024

Synopsis: When an unconventional offshoot of the US military trains an artificial intelligence in the dark arts that humanity calls “black magic,” it learns how to hack the fabric of reality itself. It can teleport matter. It can confer immunity to bullets. And it decides that obscure Silicon Valley middle manager Adrian Ross is the primary threat to its existence.

Soon Adrian is on the run, wanted by every authority, with no idea how or why he could be a threat. His predicament seems hopeless; his future, nonexistent. But when he investigates the AI and its creators, he discovers his problems are even stranger than they seem…and unearths revelations that will propel him on a journey — and a love story — across worlds, eras, and everything, everywhere, all at once.

An Interview with With Mia Dalia

An Interview with With Mia Dalia On ‘Haven’ and writing dark fiction!

Mia Dalia is a lifelong reader and reviewer turned writer. She has published two novels, Estate Sale and Haven, as well as several novellas and many, many short stories. I came to Dalia’s work through her debut novel, Estate Sale, and her pirate story in Call of the Sea from Black Ink Fiction. Her work can be found in an impressive number of anthologies from a wide variety of publishers. While a lot of her fiction is dark, Dalia also writes in a variety of other genres and is on her way to becoming quite prolific. I was pleased to get the chance to interview and get to know Mia Dalia better.

​Title: The Lies We Conjure
Author: Sarah Henning
Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy
Publisher: Tor Teen
Date: 17th September, 2024

Synopsis: Knives Out meets The Inheritance Games with magic in this standalone supernatural thriller by Sarah Henning: thirteen witches, a locked-room murder, and two non-magical sisters trapped in a deadly game of Clue.

Ruby and her sister, Wren, are normal, middle-class Colorado high school students working a summer job at the local Renaissance Fest to supplement their meager college savings.

So when an eccentric old lady asks them to impersonate her long-absent grandchildren at a fancy dinner party at the jaw-dropping rate of two grand―each―for a single night… Wren insists it’s a no-brainer. Make some cash, have some fun, do a good deed.

But less than an hour into the evening at the mysterious Hegemony Manor, Ruby is sure she must have lost her mind to have agreed to this.

That is why I have put together this list of other things you can get your reader beyond the latest book from their favourite author. Below are twelve reader-themed gifts, one for each day of Christmas.
