The Iron Crown by @llmacrae.bsky.social is just one of the great indie books available to reviewers on bookmatch.co.uk. Want to check out out our full library? Sign up for free today. #BookSky

Text reads: Fenn’s first and only memory is finding himself in the middle of a forest, face to face with a dragon spirit mocking him, all knowledge gone apart from his own name.

Lost and confused, his only hope for answers is Calidra—a woman living on the edge of the world with her partner. Forced to return home when her father dies, Calidra has put off facing her estranged mother for seven years, and she begrudgingly helps Fenn, forging papers for him so he can avoid the Queen’s Inquisitors.

But her mother is the least of her worries when they discover an ancient enemy is rising again. It should be impossible with the Iron Crown in power—and Fenn is terrified he might unwittingly be playing a part in the war’s resurgence.

Surrounded by vengeful spirits and powerful magic, Fenn’s desperate attempt to find his way home might well alter the fate of Tassar, and every power in it.

Text reads: Genre:
Epic Fantasy
High Fantasy

Age: Adult

Length: 550 pages

I'm not usually a big fan of vampire fiction, but certain authors can come along and remind you there's still life left in such a storied old trope. Stephen Graham Jones did it for me last year. @michaelwehunt.bsky.social did it for me, big time, this year with his upcoming NIGHTJARS. My review ⬇️

Thought it was probably about time I start to organise my favourite reads into a list 🤣🤣 Narrowing it down to just ten books was a *lot* harder than I expected 😱😱 These books are *IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER* because that was just a step too much 🤣🤣 Have you read any of these?

Nope! I have two author copies, that I took with me when I signed all the books. Haven't seen the slipcases beyond the online mock ups that have been posted :D Ahhh okay - better a little snug than too loose and risk them falling out, I suppose! They'll be nice and safe now :D
