'A glorious tapestry of magic and murderous gods' - BuzzFeed News
'Fans of A Darker Shade of Magic and All of Us Villains will want
to pick this up' - BookRiot 'A delightful, complex, intimate yet
explosive debut adult fantasy' - Strange Horizons DARKNESS FALLS.
GODS RISE. The Four Realms - Life, Death, Light, and Darkness - all
converge on the City of Dusk. For each realm there is a god, and
for each god there is an heir. But the gods have withdrawn their
favour from the once vibrant and thriving metropolis. And without
it, all the realms are dying. Unwilling to stand by and watch the
destruction, the four heirs - Angelica, an elementalist with her
eyes set on the throne; Risha, a necromancer fighting to keep the
peace; Nikolas, a soldier who struggles to see the light; and
Taesia, a shadow-wielding rogue with a reckless heart - will become
reluctant allies in the quest to save their city. But their
rebellion will cost them dearly. Set in a world of bone palaces and
shadow magic, of vengeful gods and defiant chosen ones, The City of
Dusk is Tara Sim's crackling adult fantasy debut.

"Timekeeper is a triumph." -Bustle "Timekeeper's premise is
original and its world unique." -EW.com "I was in an accident. I
got out. I'm safe now." An alternate Victorian world controlled by
clock towers, where a damaged clock can fracture time-and a
destroyed one can stop it completely. A prodigy mechanic who can
repair not only clockwork, but time itself, determined to rescue
his father from a Stopped town. A series of mysterious bombings
that could jeopardize all of England. A boy who would give anything
to relive his past, and one who would give anything to live at all.
A romance that will shake the very foundations of time. The first
book in a dazzling new steampunk-fantasy trilogy, Timekeeper
introduces a magical world of mythology and innovation that readers
will never want to leave.

Fans of RJ Barker and Anna Smith Spark, rejoice! The divine will
have their war - and not all will survive it. Scattered across the
realms, the four noble heirs of Nexus walk a dangerous path,
attempting to undo the damage the gods have wrought. Taesia, the
shadow-wielding rebel of House Lastrider, and Nikolas, the
reluctant soldier of House Cyr, find themselves stranded in Noctus,
the realm of eternal night. But they are not alone. They've been
followed by the unpredictable god of light, determined to destroy
Noctus. Meanwhile, Risha, the peacekeeping necromancer, must
navigate the treacherous realm of death, Mortri, where the spirits
don't take kindly to the living. The stubborn elementalist Angelica
fights a battle of her own in Vitae, trying to keep Nexus from
unravelling while secretly suffering from an illness that could
have disastrous repercussions for her family, her kingdom, and her
dreams of the throne. As the heirs struggle to restore balance to
the universe, they encounter new allies and new foes alike. But the
gods grow stronger. And their descendants will need more than their
magic and wits to survive the coming war... Praise for Tara Sim 'A
glorious tapestry of magic and murderous gods' Buzzfeed News
