October is the perfect month for fantasy and science fiction lovers. The very air is filled with whispers of mystery, magic, and the macabre. Halloween is known to many as the one night of the year when the dead can roam the earth, but it's also the one time when it's socially acceptable to geek out, wear costumes, and fully embrace our favorite fictional worlds. That shouldn't stop anyone from having fun the rest of the year, though!
The books coming out this month add to the overall ambience of Halloween for fans of both cozy and terrifying. And some of the books are long-awaited conclusions or sequels to beloved series, such as the sixth entry in the ACOTAR (A Court of Thorns and Roses) series. So, make sure to leave room in your trick-or-treat bag or TBR list for these fantastically mystical new releases.
Victorious by V.E. Schwab (Villains #3) — Oct. 6
If you haven't heard of V.E. Schwab, then welcome! You must be new here. Her novel Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil landed on Winter Is Coming’s best fantasy books of 2025 list," and her other books, including The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue and the Shades of Magic series, have been consistently nominated as readers' favorite fantasies.
Schwab's Villains series gives similar vibes to the relationship between Magneto and Professor X, or Sherlock and Moriarty. The two main characters, Eli and Victor, are archenemies, though they were once good friends researching supernatural abilities. Now, in the third and final book, they will fight against each other and a mysterious new antagonist to see whose abilities will triumph.
Eli Ever. Victor Vale.
Two men, first best friends, then mortal enemies, each destined to be the other’s shadow.
One left standing—but the game isn't over yet.
Against all the years–and the odds—a group of allies and arch rivals meet on a chessboard set by an opponent they couldn’t have predicted… to see who will be victorious.
The Scarlet Ball by Nghi Vo — Oct. 6
The Scarlet Ball is a horrifyingly literal version of racial masking, or putting on an act to fit in. Judith Ban has a white woman's face stitched to hers so that she can take the place of a girl on the marriage market. But this marriage market is dark and deadly, and the grooms-to-be are demons. If she's not careful, Judith will end up as a sacrifice instead of a bride. And Jane Austen thought her era's courting rituals were bad!
Nghi Vo (pronounced "nee-voh") has been publishing stories since 2005, starting with numerous short stories in several magazines. In 2020, Vo began her novella series, The Singing Hills Cycle, and debuted her first full-length novel, The Chosen and the Beautiful, in 2021. Her stories often center on Asian women, blending tales of magic and Gothic horror with real-world experiences as a person of color.
Pick a face, pick a fate.
Judith Ban, former convent girl, courtesan, and failed thief, is on the lookout for her next identity. The daughter of a Vietnamese adventuress and a French naval officer, she’s no stranger to risk, but she’s unprepared for the secrets of New York’s legendary Four Hundred, or for the women who build their power at the city’s heart through blood-soaked, gold-etched rituals of demonic marriage.
In exchange for enough wealth to outrun her past, Judith strikes a deal with the matriarch of the powerful Howard family: she will stand in for the missing Howard granddaughter, who was poised to make her debut when she disappeared. With Miss Iphigenia Marshall’s face stitched over her own, Judith is white, rich, and about to risk body and soul in the deadly games that determine which girls will find a match—and which will be devoured. If she can keep her wits and her life, her reward will be a husband with undreamt-of power who will be hers to command...so long as she can keep his infinite hungers fed. But to survive the season, Judith will have to seduce a storm in the shape of a man, before the night to which everything has been leading—the Scarlet Ball where the demons choose their brides.
Quaint Folk by Bitter Karella — Oct. 6
According to their own description, author Bitter Karella a “genderfluid transvestite goblin,” and if you’re looking for queer, strange, and chaotic horror, their works are definitely worth the read.
Quaint Folk is Karella's second standalone novel, following Moonflow, where a shroom-taking cult is behind some pretty sinister supernatural happenings. Quaint Folk, however, begins with a rather ordinary character in a cozy setting.
Of course, the quaint village is hiding some grotesque secrets, and the more that the main character, Jessica, tries to fit in, the more skeletons come tumbling out of the town's closets.
From the outside, it looks like Jessica has the perfect life. She's a stay-at-home mom, married to a man with a respectable job, raising a son they adore. Her family is as wholesome as all-American pie. But deep down, Jessica knows there's something wrong with her; she knows she can't escape her past.
When her husband's job has them move abroad, Jessica thinks this is her chance for a fresh start. On the remote island of Hasenhurst, the modern world can't get in. The people there grow their own herbs, make their own jam, and mind their own business. They believe in folk tales and the power of dreams. They tell visitors, we're a quaint, quiet people. The right sort of family would do well here.
Jessica is determined to be the right kind of person for a family--and a life--like this. But as she tries to befriend the townsfolk and learn their ways, she soon realizes that beneath the town's cozy idyll, something sickly-sweet and rotten lays buried ...
The Memory of Borrowed Books by Meg Anderson — Oct. 6
The Memory of Borrowed Books is Meg Anderson's debut novel, though her love of writing has been lifelong. She lives with multiple sclerosis, but it hasn't stopped her from achieving her dream of authoring books. A second book, the title still to be announced, is set to be released in the fall of 2027.
In her latest book, Claire Ashford is an average librarian trying to stop the closure of her beloved library. As the eviction date looms closer, Claire finds a secret room where the books show her memories. The memories of all the patrons the library has ever had tell Claire extraordinary tales of the town and its past. Can she use this knowledge to save the library from demolition, and what will she learn about herself in the process?
Deep in the library lives a hidden room
where magic lines the shelves and memories lie in wait
Ready for readers daring enough to finally discover the truth.
In the coastal town of Foxhollow Bay, librarian Claire Ashford keeps her life as meticulously ordered as the centuries-old library she calls home. But when the town announces plans to shut it down, her sanctuary, and the life she's built within its walls, begins to crumble.
One night, while wandering the stacks after hours, Claire discovers a door that shouldn't exist. And behind it lies a secret room filled with books no one else can see.
Each book pulls her into the memories of those who have passed through the library's doors--moments half-lived and stories left unfinished. Buried within these pages is a message the library has been trying to share, urging Claire to uncover the path to saving it.
With the demolition looming and time running out, Claire must piece together what the library is trying to show her. But one book keeps calling her back, and in its pages is a memory that could change everything. One that reveals the key to saving the library may be tangled in her own memories more than she ever could have imagined.
The Haunted Librarian by Auralee Wallace — Oct. 6
Another cozy fantasy about a library to read in October is The Haunted Librarian by Auralee Wallace. This time, the librarian, Amelia, sees ghosts. In particular, three spirits whose antics keep scaring away patrons. Amelia will have to help them with their unresolved business to keep the library from closing permanently. Oh, the things we have to do to clear our schedule for a good book!
Auralee Wallace loves writing about mysteries and witchcraft, and often combines the two. Her Evenfall Witches B&B Mysteries series proves that readers love her writing just as much. The first book in the series, In the Company of Witches, became a sensation on TikTok. Cozy paranormal mysteries are just the thing for a brisk October night, and you can't go wrong with any one of Wallace's.
It’s a dark and stormy night…and Amelia Bates is caught in the rain. Life hasn’t always been kind to her, and being a ghostseer certainly doesn’t make things any easier.
Glowing warmly through the autumnal downpour is her safest haven: the library. Amelia, the newly hired librarian, has always relished the comfort of curling up with a novel, vastly preferring it to the company of humans (alive or ghostly).
But Amelia is shocked to discover the building is full of more than quiet stories and warm cups of tea. There are curious, talkative patrons, a shy, bespectacled head librarian who makes her heart skip a beat, and three quirky spirits causing paranormal havoc that endangers the future of the library.
To help the ghosts and save the building, Amelia will have to gather all her bravery and wits, because learning to trust others might just be the first step to a happily ever after she only thought was possible in books.
A Wall is Also a Road by Annalee Newitz — Oct. 6
Sometimes, in science fiction, it’s easy for the stories to begin to feel a bit formulaic. Annalee Newitz, however, has managed to break away from the sci-fi molds and has given readers truly creative and interesting experiences. Their work as a science journalist is what informs their fiction, and they open up new ways of seeing the future of science in both their fiction and non-fiction books.
Newitz's latest work, A Wall is Also a Road, is an interesting look at culture and anthropology through the eyes of an anthropomorphic amoeba. This amoeba, named Gardenpath, is a research student who accidentally discovers a new, and occupied, planet. The planet is Earth and the location where Gardenpath ends up is Pompeii. Yes, that Pompeii.
Gardenpath befriends humans and learns so much about their society that they begin to wonder if they should reveal this planet to the rest of the galaxy.
Gardenpath is a graduate student. They also happen to be an amoeba–a slime mold, to be exact–from an ancient civilization that dwells in the space between the stars. And when they turn their many eyes to researching a remote spot on one spiral arm of the galaxy, they stumble upon a discovery that will change everything they thought they knew: a mysterious planet teeming with unexpected life, language, and culture.
One of these alien animals is a creature named Murtis, who lives in a city she calls Pompeii and works in a brothel known as “the lupanar.” Unfazed when her strange visitor says she’s from the stars, Murtis takes Gardenpath into her care, introducing her to the seaside tourist town full of immigrants and shopkeepers who are just trying to get by.
Before they met Murtis, Gardenpath expected to finish their research, present their discovery, and return home to become an acclaimed scientist. But as they look into their new friend’s bizarre sensor bulbs from within the suit that allows them to survive and blend in on her surprising planet, they are beginning to wonder if there’s more to life than academic achievement.
They're not sure what it is, but they're going to use science to find out.
House Haunters by K.C. Jones — Oct. 6
Paranormal horror is the epitome of a Halloween read, and K.C. Jones' writing is a thrill ride that keeps your heart rate elevated with each page. His debut novel, Black Tide, has been called a mix of Stephen King and A Quiet Place. Now, with House Haunters, we get a behind-the-scenes look at a reality television show set in a haunted house.
House Haunters begins with a TV producer who needs a new show to save her career. She gets an idea about setting her show in a haunted house, and hires a fearless ghost hunter to help film a sort-of pilot episode she can use to pitch to the studio. But things get a little too real and it becomes a matter of survival among murderous spirits instead of job security.
Grace Wonderly needs a hit show, or her career is dead. But saving her job might just kill her.
With her studio relying on AI to greenlight new projects, finding the next breakout series is Grace's only shot to save her job. And her sanity.
Her solution may be Frank Pendleton: a brilliant but abrasive - and admittedly handsome - ghost hunter who claims he can’t feel fear, making him uniquely attuned to the paranormal.
Frank is either a fraud or the real deal. Skeptical, but hoping for TV gold, Grace assembles a crew to shoot a proof of concept.
But when the production descends into a nightmare, Grace is forced to face the impossible: ghosts are real, and though cold and distant, Frank may be their only chance of getting out alive.
As We Fall Through Time by Claire North — Oct. 13
Catherine Webb has written dozens of fantasy novels under her own name and the two pseudonyms, Kate Griffin and Claire North. She published her first novel at 14, and her writing has been compared to the likes of Terry Pratchett and Philip Pullman.
As We Fall Through Time is about two time travelers whose altering of the time stream has serious consequences that they never could have accounted for. Cal is trying to save the man he loves from dying in the French Revolution, and Fadimatu is working to solve her own murder, thousands of years before she was born. It's a race against time to save time, or the timeline.
In the beginning, the world will end. This is the story of what happens next.
When Cal meets a soldier of the French Revolution, he knows his lover is destined to die. But what's the point of being a time traveler if you can't make a few small tweaks to the course of history? A little paradox here, an alteration there--nothing Cal can't fix, to save the man he loves.
When Fadimatu walks into a museum in 2018, she stumbles upon her own mummified corpse, setting her on the path to a betrayal that has already killed her, and a murder that has not yet come to pass.
And when a sudden rupture in the fabric of history rips through the lives Cal and Fadimatu have built, breaking both past and future, they must reckon with death foretold, love forsaken, and a secret that will shatter time itself.
The Thrice-Bound Fool by Christopher Buehlman (Blacktongue #2) — Oct. 13
Christopher Buehlman, also known as Christophe the Insultor in the Renaissance Faire circuit, has always loved role-playing games, fantasy, horror, and languages. So, it's not surprising that he found a place to belong as a dark fantasy and horror author. Some of his other works include The Lesser Dead, Between Two Fires, and The Necromancer's House.
The Thrice-Bound Fool is Buehlman's sequel to The Blacktongue Thief, and continues the story of Kinch and Galva, thief and knight, now in possession of a deadly, sentient grimoire. The book will kill the two of them, along with the rest of the world, if Kinch can't decode its riddles. Galva makes it her job to protect Kinch from the book and from the shadowy guild that seeks the tome for nefarious purposes.
Professional thief and inveterate trickster Kinch Na Shannack has always enjoyed a good book. But now his life, and the future of all of Manreach, depends on deciphering a very bad book indeed; a stolen, sentient tome that tries to kill him every time he opens it—and often when it’s closed.
Galva, veteran of the goblin wars and death’s sworn handmaiden, has vowed to protect Kinch while he mines the book for its dark magic and even darker secrets. She does so not for Kinch’s sake—though the cheeky bastard is growing on her—but because the book is the key to stopping the shadowy tyrants out to kill the queen she serves—and loves.
The ruthless, all-seeing Taker’s Guild dogs their every step, and thief and knight must flee the known world entirely if they hope to succeed. But trouble finds Kinch wherever he goes, and the pair may have traded the devil they know for horrors far darker and hungrier as they enter lands unknown.
As You Wake, Break the Shell by Becky Chambers — Oct. 13
The first in a duology, As You Wake, Break the Shell is a science fiction queer romance between a space pilot and a botanist/pharmacist who bio-prints plants and medications. The strength of Cora's bond with her sentient ship has become an issue, and she seeks out Signy for treatment. But danger lurks for both of them, and they will have to learn to trust one another if they want to make it out alive.
Becky Chambers is best known for her Wayfarers series and the Monk and Robot novellas. She has always dreamed of visiting space, so her writing often reflects that love. She has won two Hugo Awards and was nominated for a Nebula Award and the Arthur C. Clarke Award. She writes LGBTQ+ representation for people like her and her wife to see themselves in science fiction.
Life on the resource-poor planet of Fortune is challenging, but for its inhabitants, it’s home. For two of them, Signy and Cora, this home might no longer be enough.
Signy is a brilliant but reclusive botanist who bio-prints medicine from her small plant shop, often bending the rules to help those the system leaves behind. Her life is filled with the green of her store, the warmth of her one elderly friend, and the quiet determination to help others without putting herself in danger.
Cora is a rorqual pilot, one of the few with the unique ability to navigate the massive, living ships that connect the scattered settlements of their solar system. Her bond with her rorqual, Colibri, is profound—a connection that is both her greatest gift and a threat to her career.
It is that threat—the “mindbleed,” a dangerous side effect of her piloting—that brings her to Signy’s shop, and her appearance puts Signy in the danger she so fears. But it’s soon apparent it’s not just about losing her license—this delicate balance between risk and trust has the potential to change everything for them.
The Dancer and the Dream Thief by Rowenna Miller — Oct. 13
Rowenna Miller is a historical costumer, meaning she studies clothing worn throughout history, and she also dresses to perform living history. Her novels combine fantasy and history in ways that make the French Revolution, the turn of the century, and the Jazz Age more magical. Her series The Unraveled Kingdom shows how much influence a mere seamstress had in changing regimes.
The Dancer and the Dream Thief adds elven magic to the glitz and decadence of 1920s America. An elf who sells bootlegged alcohol and literal dreams takes an interest in a dancer who has especially vivid dreams. When her best friend and fellow dancer goes missing, Evelyn must turn to the elf Raife for help, as she suspects other bootleggers are responsible. Together, they face the dark world of black market magic and find that their feelings for each other make everything more complex.
Working as a dancer in the Palace Ballroom, Evelyn Pulaski has become familiar with the idea of selling dreams. For a dime a dance she plays into a cheap fantasy of romance before returning to the independent life she's made for herself. When a group of elfin bootleggers start to hang around the Palace, Evelyn and her friends grow wary. Several dancehall girls have disappeared, and the bootleggers are the prime suspects.
Raife is also in the business of selling dreams. One of the bootleggers at the Palace, he is part of an operation stealing dreams from humans and selling them in the elfinlands. Raife takes a shine to Evelyn, suspecting her to be a rare, vivid dreamer. As he investigates further, Rafe tells himself his interest is purely professional, but there is something entrancing about Evelyn.
When her best friend disappears, Evelyn forges an uneasy alliance with Raife to find her. But their rescue mission sets off a chain of events that endangers them both and reveals to Evelyn that her dreams hold more power than she could ever imagine.
The Void Dragon by Annabel Campbell (The Shattered Lands #2) — Oct. 13
The first book in The Shattered Lands series, The Outcast Mage, introduced readers to Naila and her unstable powers. Now, in the sequel, Naila's power has grown, and her mentor and friend, Haelius, has been kidnapped and forced to work on the opposing side of the brewing civil war. She'll have to control her powers and cross enemy lines to save him, but that's only if he wants to be saved.
The Shattered Lands is Annabel Campbell's debut series, though her work has been compared to that of Andrea Stewart and James Islington. So, if you've enjoyed epic fantasies like The Bone Shard Daughter or the Hierarchy series, Campbell's novels might also interest you. Just be sure to read The Outcast Mage before picking up The Void Dragon because the order does matter.
Naila has escaped the chaos that engulfed her home city of Amoria, but at a terrible cost. Her allies have splintered, and there's a power growing inside of her that she doesn't understand. It feels dangerous. It feels hungry.
Hunted by dragonriders, Naila must seek sanctuary at the great library of Awasef. Perhaps here she will find some answers--if they don't kill her first.
But the land of Dahran is on a knife edge. The Queen's advisor, the Wazira, is abducting mages and forcing them to join her cause. Worse still, Haelius Akana - Naila's friend and the greatest wizard of his age--is among them.
As political conspiracies slide towards civil war, Naila's power threatens to consume her and everyone she holds dear. Haelius may be the only person who can help her.
But only if he betrays his new master to stand at Naila's side.
When the Night Comes Knocking by Katherine Daniel — Oct. 20
Looking for a fantasy horror novel to give you chills and make you ponder the monstrosity inside us all? Then you need to check out When the Night Comes Knocking. Stuck in an Appalachian convenience store, a brother and sister have to come to terms with their broken relationship all the while trying not to get their hearts eaten by the monster just outside the doors. You know, just the usual family road trip.
When the Night Comes Knocking is Katherine Daniel's debut novel, but that doesn't mean she's a novice. She studied English and Creative Writing at Georgia State University and was quickly picked up by Penguin Random House after they read her heart-pounding and deeply moving novel. Hopefully, we can all look forward to many more gripping tales Daniel has to tell. But for now, this story will set the Halloween mood and have you sleeping with the lights on.
Rattle, rattle in the dark… The mountain’s bones seek out a heart.
Jane has not spoken to her brother Thomas since the accident that nearly killed them both. Their drive from college through the North Georgia mountains is uncomfortably silent, until they stop at a roadside convenience store, where a man stumbles in with a mutilated body, claiming to have been attacked by a monster.
At first, no one believes the man’s ravings, but when the next person to leave the store is brutally killed, they fear that local legend might be true:
There’s a beast in these mountains who feasts on guilty hearts… and someone among them has lured it out of hiding.
Jane and Thomas each harbor secrets, but so do the other patrons, and as the monster claims more hearts, the survivors turn on each other, desperate to save themselves by uncovering the guiltiest among them.
If the siblings can’t overcome the rift between them, they’ll surely become the monster’s next victims…or worse, become monsters themselves.
The Tarot Trials by Katee Robert — Oct. 20
Admittedly, Katee Robert doesn't usually write the type of fantasy I've ever been interested in. They have a large library of spicy monster romance novels, which, if that's your style, no judgment here, but it’s not my thing. However, The Tarot Trials is Robert's first foray into high fantasy, where romance is only a side plot and spicy scenes are far and few between.
The Tarot Trials are deadly competitions to become one of the five rulers of the world. Kestrel joins the trials in order to solve her mother's murder. Her mother had won a ruling spot but was killed before she could act as one of the five. Kestrel will need to use her powers to help her through the trials and figure out who wanted her mother dead. Hopefully, without getting too caught up in political machinations or distracted by the other, very attractive, contestants.
The deck has always been stacked against her.
Kestrel has trained her whole life to compete in the Tarot Trials. Her mother won once, earning a place among the five ruling Cinque—then paid for it with her life, executed for alleged treason against the Minor Court.
But fortune favors the bold.
Now it falls to Kestrel to take up her mother’s mantle as Champion of the Moon, enter the Trials, and face her fate. If she can master her new powers of shadow and illusion, navigate the poisonous game of alliances and lies, and corner the fellow Champion who dealt the killing blow to her mother years ago, she may uncover the truth she’s seeking without losing her head… or her heart. But in the Trials, betrayal is a question of when, not if. And winning the game isn’t about what she must do to win, but who she needs to survive.
Code and Codex by Yoon Ha Lee — Oct. 20
Code and Codex blends science fiction and fantasy, AI and arcana. Using language and linguistic magic, the evil empire Censorate is literally rewriting history and erasing any trace of opposition. Valentina's job for the Censorate is to read forbidden books to glean anything useful before destroying them and preventing them from being read by the citizens.
Her sister, Aurelia, is the ruler of the Censorate who uses the magical language to control and command everyone under her, and she must be stopped before time and history are irreparably altered.
Yoon Ha Lee has written several YA novels, adult novels, comic scripts, and games. He even wrote the RPG version of Ninefox Gambit, the first book in his Machineries of Empire series. In 2025, he suffered a concussion that has caused some lasting effects. Lee is slowing down on his writing to take care of his health and his family. Code and Codex may be his last book for a while, but it's fantastic enough to hold you over until his next book.
In the stars-spanning Censorate, languages other than the Republic’s own lingua rubra, which has reality-altering properties, are forbidden. Nevertheless, there are discrepancies. The Censorate’s star forces are called the Athenaeum Navy, and each of its ships is referred to as a codex. Instead of port and starboard, its soldiers refer to verso and recto. The unholy “stigmata” gouged into the ships’ hulls might, to a foreign scholar, bear a resemblance to verboten texts in other languages.
The Censorate is ruled by its Peacock, Aurelia, feared for the power of panopticon: she can look through anyone’s eyes. Moreover, Aurelia’s mastery of lingua rubra lets her force anyone who can understand her to follow her orders. Valentina, sold to Aurelia’s family as a child to be Aurelia’s oath-sister and companion, is its Swan, responsible for extracting useful information from foreign texts, then destroying them as well as entire languages through arcane arts. Valentina is assisted in her work by lower-ranking linguists and AI assistants who accept temporary contamination by foreign languages as a necessity of their work.
But this isn’t enough for Aurelia. She wants to control and deploy the Censorate’s thousand-year traitor and prisoner, the Basilisk, a man with a gaze so lethal that he destroyed its fleet of old through camera feeds. Unfortunately for her, the Basilisk gave himself a form of aphasia that makes him immune to her commands.
An Uncertain Magic by A.M. Kvita (Green Witch Cycle #2) — Oct. 27
When writing romance, this author uses the name Kvita Eyi, and when writing fantasy, uses A.M. Kvita. Since the Green Witch Cycle series is about witchcraft and ancient gods, it fits directly in the A.M. Kvita camp. The first book in the series, An Unlikely Coven, followed Joan Greenwood back home to her family of witches, and now her story continues with even bigger issues than family conflict.
Joan's best friend becomes possessed by a god, and it's up to her to save him and the city from the destructive magic he's causing. As it turns out, Joan's crush, Astoria, is in similar circumstances and is also trying to free her best friend from a god's possession. They'll have to work together to stop the powerful immortals that have hijacked their friends, and try not to get too distracted by each other.
Joan Greenwood has been adjusting nicely to her life away from her powerful family of witches. She has an apartment full of friends, her dream job at an architecture firm, and a constant companion in the sentient magic that makes up New York City. For once, everything's coming up Joan ... until her best friend gets possessed.
There's a god wearing his skin, a new cult springing up around him, magic is going haywire, and things go from bad to worse when Joan's rival-turned-crush Astoria Wardwell arrives from California with the news that her best friend is also possessed. That's one hell of a coincidence, but the two have to work together to save their best friends before these gods corrupt them--unless their pesky feelings for each other get in the way.
A Court of Splintered Harmony by Sarah J. Maas — Oct. 27
Here we go, friends! What so many of us have been waiting for: the next ACOTAR book will be released just before Halloween. A Court of Splintered Harmony is the first part to the massive conclusion Maas spent five years writing. Book 7, A Court of Forgotten Memory, covers parts two and three, and an untitled eighth book will be the fourth and final part.
Sarah J. Maas hasn't revealed much about this sixth book, not even the central POV, but many theorize that this story arc will bring all of the previous leads together. That makes sense, given that it took so long to write. Bringing several branching stories into harmony takes work! But now, the long wait is over, and we can finally dive back into the world of Fae.
What was broken will be remade.
Deep in the heart of the continent, Koschei the Deathless is stirring. Though he's been bound to a mountain lake for millennia, the insidious threat of his return now spreads across the Fae territories, attracting powerful allies hell-bent on reclaiming what was once theirs: the human lands.
The Night Court will not stand idly by while innocents are attacked. But with Prythian still piecing itself together in the wake of the devastating Hybern War, the task of uniting is proving more difficult by the day.
To make matters worse, those who rule and protect the Night Court are reeling from recent betrayals and revealed truths. The rifts dividing them seem insurmountable.
But to defeat Koschei's creeping shadow, they must find a way back to each other and resurrect their former alliances. To survive, they must find a way to repair the splintered harmony all around them.
