Tesh E: The Incandescent

The Incandescent

Award-winning author Tochi Onyebuchi's new standalone novel is hard-boiled fantasy noir: Raymond Chandler meets P. Djèlí Clark in a postcolonial West Africa Fortune always left whatever room I walked into, which is why I don't leave my place much these days... Veteran and private eye Boubacar doesn't need much-least of all trouble-but trouble always seems to find him. Work has dried up, and he'd rather be left alone to deal with his bills as the Harmattan rolls in to coat the city in dust, but Bouba is a down on his luck deux-fois, suspended between two cultures and two worlds. When a bleeding woman stumbles onto his doorway, only to vanish just as quickly, Bouba reluctantly finds himself enmeshed in the secrets of a city boiling on the brink of violence. The French occupiers are keen to keep the peace at any cost, and the indigenous dugulen have long been shattered into restless factions vying for a chance to reclaim their lost heritage and abilities. As each hard-won clue reveals horrifying new truths, Bouba may have to carve out parts of himself he's long kept hidden, and decide what he's willing to offer next. From the visionary author of Riot Baby and Goliath, Harmattan Season is a gripping fantasy noir in the tradition of Chandler, Hammond, and Christie that will have you by the throat-both dryly funny and unforgettably evocative.

Harmattan Season

In the glittering city of Port Astor, where fae roads criss-cross human highways and ghosts whisper to the living, nothing is ever as it seems.

Ballad of the Bone Road

A modern-day dark academia fantasy with a twist, perfect for fans of Babel and A Deadly Education. Warren University has stood amongst the ivy elite for centuries, built on the bones-and forbidden magic-of its most prized BIPOC students...hiding the rot of a secret society that will do anything to keep their own powers burning bright. No matter who they must sacrifice along the way. Ellory Morgan is determined to prove that she belongs at Warren University, an ivy league school whose history is deeply linked to occult rumors and dark secrets. But as she settles into her Freshman year, something about the ornate buildings and shadowy paths feels strangely...familiar. And, with every passing day, that sense of déjà vu grows increasingly sinister. Despite all logic, despite all reason, despite all the rules of reality, Ellory knows one thing to be true: she has been here before. And if she can't convince brooding legacy student Hudson Graves to help her remember a past that seems determined to slip through her fingers as if by some insidious magic...this time, she may lose herself for good.

The Elsewhere Express

The highly-anticipated sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling author Holly Black's stunning adult debut, Book of Night. Night is made of shadows and shadows have teeth. Charlie Hall, glue trap for disaster, crooked from the day she was born, who'd never met a bad decision she wasn't willing to double down on, may have finally met her match. After defeating Salt and stealing her lover-the powerful shadow, Vince-back from under the noses of the powerful Cabal leaders, she thought she'd won. Agreeing to become the Hierophant and risking her life hunting down dangerous rogue shadows seemed a small price to pay if she got to do it while being tethered to Vince. But Vince is no longer the man she loved. The tethering process wiped away his memories of the last year, leaving only Red-the ruthless shadow who spent years as a killer for a cruel, mercurial billionaire. Red doesn't remember Charlie and doesn't like her. So when Charlie is ordered to track down the Blight responsible for a massacre at a local church, she's worse than just alone, heartbroken, and outmatched. She's vulnerable. In a world where shadows have wills of their own, the question isn't just how to survive. It's how to protect yourself from the on thing you can never escape-your own shadow.
