Distantly upon the horizon, bejewelled light shone like stars; tantalising, inviting. Then the palace-in-glass was gone, fading away into the velvet night like a snuffed lamp. Between the sands and the starlight, ancient powers rise, and the oldest of tales becomes new. An old sorcerer travels the starlight bazaars: cursed and magic-blighted, he has glass where his heart should be. A half-jinni enchantress seeks her missing son: daughter of a fallen king, hers is a great and daunting power. A trio of camels walks the sands: loyal sisters in service, there is more to their past than meets the eye.

A New York Times-Bestseller from the author of A Tempest of Tea! Lush and striking, hopeful and devastating, We Free the Stars is the conclusion to the Sands of Arawiya duology by New York Times bestselling author Hafsah Faizal. Darkness surged in his veins. Power bled from her bones. The battle on Sharr is over. The Arz has fallen. Altair may be captive, but Zafira, Nasir, and Kifah are bound for Sultan’s Keep, determined to finish the plan Altair set in motion: restoring the hearts of the Sisters of Old to the minarets of each caliphate, finally bringing magic to all of Arawiya. But they are low on resources and allies alike, and the kingdom teems with fear of the Lion of the Night’s return. As the zumra plots to overthrow Arawiya’s darkest threat, Nasir fights to command the magic in his blood. He must learn to hone his power, to wield it against not only the Lion but his father as well, trapped under the Lion’s control. Zafira battles a very different darkness festering in her through her bond with the Jawarat—it hums with voices, pushing her to the brink of sanity and to the edge of a chaos she dares not unleash. In spite of everything, Zafira and Nasir find themselves falling into a love they can’t stand to lose . . . But time is running out, and if order is to be restored, drastic sacrifices will have to be made. Don’t miss these other titles from Hafsah Faizal: We Hunt the Flame, the commercially acclaimed first book in the Sands of Arawiya duology A Tempest of Tea, the instant #1 New York Times–Bestseller A Steeping of Blood, second book in the Blood & Tea duology

From the author of Gloaming and Wyrde and Wayward comes a sparkling wonder tale about a gentle widow, an eccentric wizard, and a wardrobe of magical hats… Meg Lavender has been alone since her husband died – well, mostly. There’s a trio of widows in Ravensby Od; you can find them every Wednesday at Foxley’s, absorbing syllabub, and tea. It’s a quiet life in a quiet town; a sensible town, where tea is always at three o’clock sharp, and the trains arrive precisely when they’re supposed to. But the past is an odd sort of place, and it won’t always stay where it’s meant to. Magic is coming back to Ravensby Od – and Meg Lavender’s in the thick of it. It begins with a strange bequest, sped on the wings of ravens… “The world is full of strange things: it doesn’t do to object, when they get a little stranger.” Bursting with Charlotte E. English’s unique charm, Ravensby Od is a wild, whimsical Wonder Tale to warm the heart and leave you smiling. Contains: dauntless leading ladies; weird and wonderful wizards; magical dresses, and hats; an unkindness of ravens; labyrinths; unlikely friendships; and entirely too much syllabub. “Large helpings of wit and whimsy...” Publishers Weekly on Faerie Fruit “Her faultless prose… sparkles with eye-bedazzling wonder.” NYT Bestselling author Mercedes Lackey on Gloaming

Once upon a chime... Every day at four o’ clock, an enchanted twilight sweeps over Vale Argantel. Strange things happen under its eldritch influence: mists boil up out of the ground, rain pours out of a cloudless sky, and the roses grow wild and fey. Such is the way of things. But when her friend falls through a magic mirror and disappears, Margot realises something’s changed. An ancient enchantment has gone awry, and chaos quickly spreads. Magic-drunk, confused and hampered at every turn, Margot must find a way to reclaim Oriane — and before anybody else disappears. But for Oriane, things are stranger still. Lost in a topsy-turvy world, how can she ever find her way home? For she’s adrift in a place very like Argantel — eerily familiar, yet strangely different; a place which follows none of the usual rules… Praise for Gloaming: "One part Eleanor Farjeon, one part Lord Dunsany, one part Vera Chapman, but mostly her unique self, Charlotte English is the first new (to me) writer to make me excited in a long, long time. Her faultless prose by turns ascends with the lark, leads you down secret paths like the willow-the-wisp, bewitches you into bewilderment, and sparkles with eye-bedazzling wonder, taking you at last to an enchanted ending that leaves you as drunk on words as her protagonists on ensorceled rose-wine. Please, milady, more!" - Mercedes Lackey

Princess Elara Avani, a scholar more comfortable in the royal library than the gilded cage of court, prefers the rustle of ancient scrolls to the suffocating rituals of the Sunstone Kingdom. Her quiet world shatters when Khelon Rhys, the Crimson Corsair, a prince exiled from the Obsidian Islands, steals her away. He seeks not conquest, but a prize: the Sunstone Princess, a pawn in a deadly game of power. Traded between the endless ocean and the encroaching Whispering Sands, Elara discovers a dormant magic within her, the untamed power of the Sand Dancers, a forgotten lineage whose whispers echo in her blood. Khelon, bound by a harsh pirate code, sees Elara as nothing more than a bargaining chip. Yet, her fiery defiance and burgeoning magic chip away at his hardened exterior, revealing a vulnerability he fiercely guards. Under a canopy of desert stars, a forbidden connection blooms. Driven by desperation and her newfound magic, Elara escapes into the heart of the desert, finding sanctuary with the Whispering Wind, a clandestine brotherhood of sorcerers. They recognize her as the last Sand Dancer, the key to restoring the desert's blighted heart. But within this sanctuary lurks betrayal. Kaelen Maeve, a sorcerer consumed by envy, plots to steal Elara's magic, believing it rightfully his. Haunted by Elara’s escape and his growing feelings, Khelon uncovers a chilling truth: the Sunstone Emperor wields a corrupting magic, threatening not just the desert kingdoms, but the very balance of the world. Torn between his piratical past and the silent pleas of the dying desert, Khelon must choose a side. As Elara's power grows, she learns she is not merely the *last* Sand Dancer, but the *first* of a new era. Her magic holds the key to healing the land, but the Emperor’s shadow stretches long across the dunes, his monstrous legions marching relentlessly. Elara, alongside the Whispering Wind and a fragile alliance with Khelon and his reformed pirate crew, must confront him in a final, breathtaking battle. Amidst the clash of magic and steel, ancient prophecies and burgeoning love, sacrifices will be made, loyalties tested. Elara must choose between her love for a man from a world she once despised and her destiny to protect a people she is only beginning to understand. The fate of the desert, and perhaps the world, hangs in the balance. In the whispers of the enchanted sands, a new world is waiting to be born.

"Whispers in the Wind" is an ethereal and captivating fantasy adventure that introduces Elara, a being not born, but "became" a shimmering wisp of consciousness, a Wandering Soul attuned to the subtle hum of the universe. With no memory of her origin, Elara drifts through time and across continents, a silent observer of humanity's history, guided by a persistent, enigmatic melody within her. This hum, a siren song only she can hear, pulls her towards a grander purpose: the restoration of the "Lost Tides" of the ocean, stolen by a malevolent entity that plunged the world into a suffocating silence. Her quest leads her to the Phantom Isles, where she uncovers ancient secrets and faces the Silent Watchers creatures born of the very silence she seeks to break. Armed not with weapons, but with the strength of forgotten memories and the faint echoes of the sea, Elara ventures into the island's humming core to find the legendary Heartstone. This journey is a testament to the power of listening to the subtle whispers of the wind, the echoes of the past, and the inner melody that guides one's destiny. "Whispers in the Wind" is a mesmerizing tale about finding purpose in the unknown, the vital importance of memory and voice, and the enduring magic that binds all life, reminding us that even in profound silence, the world can sing again if we only remember how to listen.

Praise for Jalsaghar My hands memorize your hourglass waist. /Slow winds pass through distant sands, sifting grains. Imagine that beauty rethought in stanza after stanza. The ghazal is the Satie of poetry, sustained by the whirling dervish, its couplets braiding into the brain. Steffen Horstmanns Jalsaghar is a stunning homage to the late Agha Shahid Ali (Terese Svoboda, author of Professor Harrimans Steam Air-Ship). A rapproachment with a formal tradition demands incisive cultural evaluation; an assay of a formal tradition not ones own demands that one become a naturalized citizen of a nation of poetry. The sure-footedness with which Steffen Horstmann navigates the ghazal forma kind of poem often misunderstood in Anglophone practiceis a testimony to long and devoted study as well as to Horstmanns skill as a practitioner, his keen ear, and his passion for the possibilities of the kind of dtente poetry offers: a genuine cross-pollination of the music, the landscapes, the souls of distant and yet always kindred lives (T. R. Hummer, author of Skandalon). Steffen Horstmanns book of contemporary ghazals shows us the ways in which formin this case precise, musical, devotional in its originscan act as a vehicle for meditation. The rhymes and repetitions of the ghazal are part prayer, part spell, and as such they bind together in language the world of material things and the world of spirit, which is also a world of longing. Agha Shahid Ali brought the tradition of the ghazal into the center of our contemporary and American poetic repertoire; Steffen Horstmann has carried it into our young century, made it new (Mark Wunderlich, author of The Earth Avails).
