Fade To Black

fade-to-black-cov Fade to Black
Francis Knight

From a British debut fantasy author comes this highly original trilogy drenched in atmosphere and guaranteed to grip readers to the core. A must-read tale of corruption and dark magic, set in the vertigo-inspiring city of Mahala.

Mahala: a city built in the dark depths of a valley. A city built up in layers, not across - where streets are built upon streets, buildings balance precariously upon buildings. A city that the Ministry rules from its lofty perch at the sunlit summit & where the forsaken lurk in the shadowy depths of the Pit.

Angelfall

Susan Ee

An action-packed and genuinely terrifying fantasy epic novel set six weeks after the world has succumbed to the angel apocalypse.

It's been six weeks after angels of the apocalypse have destroyed the world as we know it. When enemy angels fly away with 17-year-old Penryn's little sister, Penryn is forced to team up with Raffe, an injured angel who wants his wings back. Together, they will journey to the heart of San Francisco and the angels' stronghold, where an unimaginable horror awaits them.
