The Unbroken hits the shelves on March 25th courtesy of Orbit. The relentless binging are all my boxes being ticked at once. However, it’s also a queer North African-inspired fantasy of empire and resistance. Speaking of ‘you had me at the artwork’, CL Clark’s debut The Unbroken could have been about almost anything a cover as hot as this. Watch out for a review in a couple of weeks. To be honest, this one had me at the evocative strapline – This is a place where we can be alone, together – and its vibrant, abstract artwork. Skyward Inn takes us into a future where Earth won an interstellar war, but a visitor raises unnerving memories of the past. I’ve been intrigued by Whiteley’s past work and beguiled by her dreamy prose. Titan Books have Aliya Whiteley’s latest on March 16th. This is my next read, and I’m so excited I might explode. Martine has upped the ante: as an alien invasion threatens, diplomats Mahit Dzmare and Three Seagrass are deployed to make contact. Winning a Hugo for A Memory Called Empire puts a bit of pressure on Arkady Martine’s sequel A Desolation Called Peace.
