Books by Helen Corcoran
“In my opinion, this series is one of the most underrated gems in high fantasy. Queen of Coin and Whispers is about Lia, a young and idealistic queen who inherits the struggling realm of Edar from her late uncle. At court, her path crosses with that of a vengeful noble named Xania, who becomes her spymaster. The political intrigue in this book is some of the best I’ve read, and the romance that unfolds between Xania and Lia is so tender and realistic, grounded in mutual love and respect.” Read more...

A fantasy series allows us to explore the complexities of characters, the far corners of their worlds, and the consequences of their actions – for best-selling author Samantha Shannon, this is “a privilege, and such a joy.” Here she recommends five rich, sustained fantasy worlds, featuring old gods, spymasters, witches, plagues, and the land of the dead – and above all, characters who keep surprising us.
