Moon Witch, Spider King
This second book in Marlon James’s Dark Star trilogy finds the award-winning author of A Brief History of Seven Killings retelling the epic battle of the first installment, Black Leopard, Red Wolf, from the point of view of the old witch who played the villain for the first time. Come to the action in an epic fairy tale, and stay for James’ unique ingenious writing and delicious ability to spin a complicated, compelling story about the struggle for power.
In New York City in the 1920s, Benjamin, a Wall Street magnate, and Helen, daughter of eccentric aristocrats, are at the top of the social scene. But how did they come to their enormous fortune? That’s the question at the heart of a 1937 novel, Bonds, read by the entire New York elite, based on the story of financier Andrew Bevel. It’s narrative no. 1 in bonds. Nr. 2 is from Bevel’s perspective, dissatisfied with his fictional portrayal of Bonds, who decides to write his own memoir. No. 3, a memoir by Ida Partenza, a magazine writer, and No. 4, a diary by Mildred, Bevel’s wife, add layers to this story. There are four narratives, all competing for the truth within the Trust – and it’s a magnificently constructed literary puzzle about power and American wealth.

- Is this the latest from the author of Station Eleven about time travel? Yes. Classical music? Also that. A future where humans live on the moon? You can believe it. But there is no writer more qualified than Mandel to build a world out of seemingly different ideas and make it enchanting, captivating, and utterly impossible to forget.
- The Candy House returns to some of the characters and themes of author Jennifer Egan’s Pulitzer Prize-winning A Visit From the Goon Squad, but it’s not exactly a sequel. Instead, the riveting, intelligent, and utterly captivating novel tells the story of a struggle for the ownership of human consciousness, the dangers of technology, and the power of the family across generations and eras. It’s unusually thoughtful and heartbreaking, whether you’re already familiar with Egan’s world or not.
- Xochitl Gonzalez’s debut novel, about a high-end wedding planner in New York City and her politician brother, explores what lies beneath the surface of seemingly perfect lives. While Olga orchestrates perfect moments for her talented clients, her own life is less of an adventure, especially as her long-absent mother reappears and a natural disaster threatens the place the family comes from – leaving both their past and future in danger. It is a sharp, funny and utterly charming debut that is as funny as it is considered and marks the arrival of a great talent.
