The Winter King
“Christine Cohen’s The Winter King is everything a fantasy lover wants: adventure, political intrigue, and a little bit of romance … this story is a must-read.”
—Lorehaven on Jul 23, 2021

Strays
“Remy Wilkins’s Strays joins spiritual warfare with a coming-of-age tale set in small-town America … an unexpected and intriguing fusion of spiritual war and childhood’s end.”
—Lorehaven on Jul 16, 2021

Brave Ollie Possum
“This madcap tale from Ethan Nicolle includes over 200 illustrations and plenty of silly scenes, well-suited for reading aloud.”
—Lorehaven on Jul 9, 2021

The Weight of Memory
“Shawn Smucker’s The Weight of Memory unfolds like a sleeper waking from a dream: slowly, tentatively, clinging to the hope or fear of world-ending reality.”
—Lorehaven on Jul 2, 2021
