Calor
“J. J. Fischer’s novel Calor explores the value of hope and love in this expansive fallen world, where complex cultures and emotional backstories sing haunting refrains.”
—Lorehaven on Dec 2, 2022

Aberration
“Cathy McCrumb’s compelling style with a keen sense of humanity invigorates this story in which even villains gain their measure of love and loss.”
—Lorehaven on Nov 18, 2022

Trouble in the CTC!
“T. D. Patrick’s craft maintains wholesome gravity levels for this re-entry into the Terra Prime Adventures series, raising suitable stakes for engaging characters.”
—Lorehaven on Nov 11, 2022

On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness
“With mysterious maps, strange saviors, and monstrous menaces like toothy cows and horned hounds, On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness sets course for adventure.”
—Lorehaven on Nov 4, 2022
