As always, this is not a comprehensive list, but only includes all the books I have heard about so far.

1) It must be a self published fantasy novel.
2) It must have a Goodreads page.
3) It must have a cover.
26th October – A Land of Never After (Curses of Never #1) by R.L. Davennor
All my life, I’ve dreamed of the sea.
Mermaids, stormy skies, daring adventures, pirates…it was little wonder I sprinted to the docks the moment I left the orphanage. Eager to begin my new life, I searched for a ship that would have me—and found a thief instead. I chased the bastard.
Now I’m trapped.
I’m told this place is Neverland, but everything I touch is dead or dying; what’s left is hellbent on killing each other. Monsters lurk around every corner, and everyone I meet hides a damning secret. I’m thrust in the middle of an ancient feud, and seemingly, the only one interested in unraveling the curse that plagues us.
Neverland is my home now. Until it’s done with me?
It will never let go.

GoodreadsAmazon1st November – The Lament of Death by Maria Vermisoglou

My job? Bringing the dead to the other side.
I expected to become a healer…
…But fate bestowed me with a curse.
Cause, yeah. Being a Banshee is a curse.
I’m hated by my friends and family, and I’m kind of stuck in the Realm of Silver, the last place I want to be.
But if I don’t accept my job and take souls to their next stop, well, things will get bad fast. The wicked ones will drown the world in darkness, while the rest? I don’t even want to know.
What I really want is to gather the strength I need to become who I want to be.
Is it even possible to do my job with all this pressure from… everybody?
GoodreadsAmazon1st November – Town Under (The System Apocalypse: Australia #1) by Tao Wong & K.T. HannaUrban Fantasy, LitRPG

The System Apocalypse has come to Australia, altering native organisms and importing even more menacing creatures to the most dangerous continent on Earth. For Kira Kent, plant biologist, the System arrives while she’s pulling an all nighter at work with her pair of kids in tow.
Now, instead of mundane parental concerns like childcare and paying the bills, she’s got to figure out how to survive a world where already deadly flora and fauna have grown even more perilous – all while dealing with the minutiae of the System’s pesky blue screens and Levels and somehow putting together a community of survivors to forge a safe zone to shelter her son and daughter.

GoodreadsAmazon4th November – Mortal Secrets (Realms Unleashed: Red Angel #1) by Isa Medina
Broke, blacklisted, and keeping secrets—the deadly kind.
Name? Ana Calliope Holt. Occupation? Demon vermin hunter. Status in the human magic community? Rock bottom, basement level.
And for a half-angel, that’s quite a feat.
I don’t mind it—the less anyone pays me any attention, the better. Because if anyone in the mortal, angelic, or demonic realms learns I’m the reincarnation of the Red Angel, an ancient weapon that can end immortal lives, I’ll be the hunted instead of doing the hunting.
So, when rumors about my existence begin to circulate, I must cover up my tracks, no matter what.
Unfortunately, when you’re already scraping the bottom of the barrel, the only help you find is the one you probably don’t want. Like Zel, an angel much more infuriating than he’s useful. Or the magical black market, where backstabbing is more of a competitive sport than a hobby.
But the way I see it, once you’re down this deep into a hole, things can only look up.
…Right?

GoodreadsAmazon5th November – A Bitter Drink by Azalea Forrest[image error]As the center of trade for the four major races, Bisia is the perfect city for a Dahlseid—a young race of plant folk—like Rowan to experience whatever his heart desires, and his position as ambassador for the Dahlsia makes affording those desires easy.

GoodreadsAmazon5th November – Gold Glamour’s Ghost by Neil Adam RayEpic Fantasy, Urban Fantasy, Sword & Sorcery
A legendary gunslinger returns, bringing his mythic revolvers and a host of eldritch magic back to the Wild West.
Carter Quinn might be Tarnation’s premiere scoundrel, charlatan, and snake oil salesman, but at least each of his overpriced promises of false hope comes with a good story pegged to it. All the man claiming to be Lucas Linden offers with his lies is a brief dance at the end of a short rope.
After studying the art of the scam for decades, Quinn knows a fraud when he sees one. Sure, the legendary gunslinger’s revolvers weigh down the stranger’s belt and he’s got the folk hero’s signature smile stretched across his face, but the real Lucas Linden disappeared thirty years ago. For him to come back after so long without a single wrinkle or gray hair, he’d need a hell of a lot more than a healthy diet—he’d need the kind of magic that only exists in stories more outlandish than those of Lucas Linden himself.
The fake Lucas Linden seems harmless at first, but when he appoints himself sheriff and claims to have discovered enough gold to reanimate the dried-up mining town, the simple townsfolk fall for the con hook, line, and sinker. They feed off the fervor of the lawless, godless hangings, growing more manic by the day, and it falls on Quinn and his soft-headed sidekick, Ron Chesterfield, to stop the grinning ghost before his festering evil consumes Tarnation and spreads its black tendrils to the rest of the world.
She’s exactly where she’s meant to be… now if she only knew why?

But surrounded by hostile companions and tormented by the dangerous secret she carries, Roh begins to realise that the pursuit of power may prove more destructive than she ever imagined.
