Unmissable Fantasy & SciFi of 2022!
The MANY SFF releases of 2022 I consider absolutely unmissable!
Sunday Souçons #15
One 1960s couple adopting a literal alien, and one hastily-arranged space-royalty marriage!
Shamanistic Sci-Fi: The Moonday Letters by Emmi Itäranta
A queer shaman must travel deep into her spouse’s past on Mars and beyond to determine the future of planet Earth.
I Can’t Wait For…Thief Mage Beggar Mage by Cat Hellisen
Cat Hellisen has written a lush queer fantasy that is also a Tinderbox retelling???
RUN DON’T WALK
Must-Have Monday #90
Witches, gods, and chosen ones abound in this week’s NINE new SFF releases!
An Unexpected New Favourite: Daughter of Redwinter by Ed McDonald
Absolutely everything said this book was not going to be for me.
It turned out to be one of my favourites of the year.
I Can’t Wait For…My Name Is Magic by Xan Van Rooyen
A Finnish magic school story?! With a nonbinary protagonist named Magic?! GIMME!
Must-Have Monday #89
Sorcerers, cities made of mushrooms, and a return to the world of The Goblin Emperor!
Sunday Soupçons #14
A book about faerie smiths, and one that’s an unfinished gem.
Behold the Perfect Vampire Book: Darknesses by Lachelle Seville
Think Twilight, but grown-up, Black, queer as fuck, and featuring vampires that are unapologetically deadly.
…So the anti-Twilight, basically.
From Nowhere, a Beast: Origin of Storms by Elizabeth Bear
The disappointing conclusion to an intricate South Asian-inspired fantasy.
