There are plenty more books we couldn’t fit in. Elizabeth May’s Imperial Russia-inspired romantic fantasy TO CAGE A GOD (out now, Daphne Press) concerns two sisters raised as living weapons by a mother who grafted gods into their bones; with their country on the brink of war, they must take the helm of the rebellion. Stephen K Stanford’s debut JUBILEE (out now, Flame Tree Press) sees a pair of detectives being drawn together while on a mission to recover the body of a conservative politician from a lawless world ruled by an eccentric AI. Sue Lynn Tan’s collection TALES OF THE CELESTIAL KINGDOM (out now, HarperVoyager) expands upon her Daughter Of The Moon Goddess/Heart Of The Sun Warrior duology – inspired by the legend of the Chinese moon goddess – with nine short stories (seven original) set in the same world. Prequel adventure STAR TREK: PICARD – FIREWALL (29 February, Pocket Books) unfolds two years after USS Voyager’s return home, as Seven of Nine decides to join the Fenris Rangers. Turning to continuing series: Hannah Kaner has followed up her accomplished debut Godkiller – centred on a swordswoman who hunts down chaotic gods – with SUNBRINGER (out now, HarperVoyager). And Jay Kristoff has penned a sequel to Empire Of The Vampire, his book set in a world where the sun no longer shines properly and vampires are slowly taking over: EMPIRE OF THE DAMNED (29 February, HarperCollins). Finally, coffee table book THE ART AND SOUL OF DUNE: PART TWO (1 March, Titan) delivers more concept designs and behind-the-scenes snaps. Spicy.
