Hello friend. Happy Thursday! Author and astrophysicist Helyna L. Clove is back on the blog today with her favorite indie Fantasy titles. I recently chatted with her about her spotlight book, Skylark in the Fog. Learn more about the book at the end of the post and head to the interview/excerpt if you want to check it out further. But let’s read about her favorite books – there are 7 here with short and detailed versions of why they are amazing. 🙂
Hi Helyna! It is great to have you back on to Armed with A Book! Please tell me and my readers about yourself!
Hi! I’m Helyna L. Clove, indie sci-fi and fantasy author. I live in Wales but I’m originally from Hungary. My day job is astrophysicist but I’ve been doing creative writing for a long, long time. I decided to take the first steps towards actually publishing my books around 2020 when I translated and finished my first novel. Skylark in the Fog, the space opera of my heart, published in 2022 and I’m now preparing a dark fantasy duology to release into the world.
Do you primarily read indie books or big publishers books as well?
I read both but for the last 2-3 years it’s been overwhelmingly indie. Last year, 78% of my reading was indie or small publisher published books, and in 2022, 85%.
Helyna’s Indie Recommendations
The Roots that Clutch by A.E. Bross
Genre: Fantasy
Published Year: 2020
Sands of Theia #1 (Ongoing)
Theia is an unforgiving world, one of sand and heat. There are no rains, and what water there is trickles from dying springs and wells. Those who control the waters control all. They are the god-kings. These tyrants of the last remaining city-states have shackled their subjects and depleted world, enslaving all by the might of their false divinity. Above all, they control thaûma—Theia’s magic.
For anyone on the desert planet unfortunate enough to possess the ability to wield thaûma—called thaumaturges—only indoctrination and servitude await them at the hands of the god-kings.
This is Tirzah’s curse. Tortured by a sadistic older sister and kept locked from sight by her sycophant father, Tirzah’s life is one of shame and cruelty. Even the awakening of her thaûma brings her no respite, and she is soon used as a “gift” to curry favor with the nearest of the god-kings. She narrowly escapes her bonds with the help of a member of the insurgent thaumaturge order known as the Shadow Collective. After the rescue, Tirzah finds a new life among the outcasts of Theia’s wastelands.
Yet the deserts are no place to hide, and before long the brutal realities of Theia threaten to shatter her fragile freedom, and drag her back into the shadows of the god-kings themselves.
The Short Version:
Bross’ character work is subtle, gentle, and interesting, managing to depict a harsh world with sensitivity and care while slowly building up mysteries and painting sceneries and big events that stay with you. I love the found family in the books as well. If you love desert settings, a diverse cast, and dangerous magics, you’ll enjoy it.
The Detailed Version:
This was a wholesome, beautiful, and occasionally quite heartbreaking book that kept my attention throughout. The desert-world, Theia, and the main character, Tirzah’s journey from small child to a young woman wandering the land is introduced very immersively; the text is thoughtfully written, the characters are great, and the locations colorful and intriguing. The pace is not too quick, however, and hardly anything wraps up by the end: it feels a bit like a prologue, but that is in no way a negative thing. I’m just saying there isn’t a traditional peak or climax the story climb towards (maybe if anything then the events of the last few pages might be called that), instead we basically go through Tirzah’s life as she leaves behind her abusive home, loses people and gets to know others (her grief and suffering is written exquisitely well, thanks for the tears!) makes friends and frenemies, while the world around her also develops.
The main conflict seems to be about the rule of the godkings, despots who oppress their subjects and govern with magical mind control and similar awful practices. Tirzah, of course, has magic, and is just starting to use it more productively by the end of the novel, so I predict there will be a looot of problems connected to that. We also have a fox friend which is always a plus! I also loved the conflict around Tirzah’s first romantic relationship: the whole thing was complex. I do want to get to know more about magic and whether the ocean exists and stuff like this.
All in all, I can’t wait to see more of this world and get to know what’s next for Tirzah!
Kill Your Darlings by L.E. Harper
Genre: Fantasy
Published Year: 2023
Standalone
Fantasy author Kyla knows dreams don’t come true. Isolated and grappling with debilitating depression, she copes by writing about the realm of Solera. Fearless heroes, feisty shapeshifters, and mighty dragons come alive on her pages. She adores her characters, but she doesn’t believe in happy endings. And if she can’t have one, why should they?
Kyla’s on the verge of giving up on everything when she wakes one morning, magically trapped in her fictional world. Now she’s with her most cherished characters: the friends she’s always yearned for, the family she’s never known. There’s even someone who might be Prince Charming (if Kyla could get her act together and manage some honest communication). She’d surrender to the halcyon fantasy, except she knows a nightmarish ending awaits. Solera is at war, and its defenders are losing against the insidious villain spawned in the depths of Kyla’s mind. He feeds on the energy of dreams, seeks the destruction of all who oppose him—and Kyla’s become his number one target.
Kyla must trade her pen for a sword and fight to change her story’s ending, but this isn’t a fantasy anymore. No happily-ever-after is guaranteed. And mental illness has robbed her of everything she needs to succeed: love, fighting spirit, hope. If Kyla can’t overcome the darkness inside her, she’ll die with her darlings.
The Short Version:
Author somehow gets teleported into her own book—of course I would love this! But more than that, this is a heartbreaking tale of a protagonist that struggles with mental health issues that a lot of us can feel for. I loved the raw honesty of the depiction of depression here and the sort-of-allegory-but-not-really way of connecting plots and characters. It touched me deeply and was a very cathartic read. Heed the trigger warnings but if you love the exploration of these things, please give it a try.
The Detailed Version:
“Forgive me, old friend, but we won’t win the Shadow War.”
“No, I don’t think we will.”
When I first saw stuff about this book, I was immediately intrigued: authors getting sucked into their imaginary worlds is exactly my jam. And there’s mental illness rep? Even more so. I was so very happy to receive an ARC and jumped in immediately. The novel started out sort of how I expected: it was sad, mostly through the narration of the author and what little glimpses we get about her real life, but there was this magical world to get lost in too, and cool characters, so I was like okay. I can roll, just like the author did! I lost myself in the magic of it, like her, even though darker things always hovered in the background, barely seen. Solera is a fantasy world that is familiar but still distinct enough to be memorable – what makes it stand out, as always, is the stories of its characters (and that includes the author this time). There’s magic and epic battles, there’s dragons, there’s a fearsome dark foe…and secrets and quests! It took me some time to grab onto what will be the structure of the novel, but it does all come together in the end. A hero’s journey: save Solera and her friends, learn some lessons, get back home somehow. I also appreciated mentions of writing tropes, fantasy cliches and not-cliches, and comments about publishing and author life a lot. The author’s language is modern, quippy, but deeply introspective at times, peppered with simple but awesome descriptions of the world. She knows Solera inside out and she’s not afraid to show it.
Also, the “a word” was said. Several times! You know, the one that rhymes with uh…abexual? x)
Then, for the last third, the book becomes something different. The same, to be honest, but different. And um, I wasn’t prepared to be seen this kind of way.
As someone whose imaginary world(s) has pushed her withering soul through some spicy times also, this last part of the novel was quite…harrowing. I mean I should have known! I really should have. But I didn’t, because I intentionally let myself to be bamboozled, that’s just who I am as a person. Anyway, this book made me cry and lose all hope and man, that warning in the beginning about unkind narrative voice is no joke. But that’s what the darkness does. And looking at it all, I wasn’t sure there will be light at the end of the journey. I recognized myself, not in everything, because oh the darkness is so good at tailoring itself to each and every one of us, but I did, and boy, it hurt. Depression sucks. Real life sucks double. And there are times we suck too. And there’s no easy answer. Sometimes there’s no answer at all.
But.
We can always try. And we do. And in the end, there is a tiny teensy glimmer of hope.
This is a book I would love to have written, and I really don’t say that all too often. I’m having all the emotions, and I love everything about it. This book will save lives. And every single agent can be sorry they didn’t decide to champion it. Fools. Absolute buffoons.
Preordered, shelved as favourite, will re-read when I need a good existential crisis…I mean catharsis.
P.S. Also I love dragons and Cendrion is the best.
Bloody Spade by B. M. Willows
Genre: Urban fantasy
Published Year: 2021
First in The Cardplay Duology (completed)
A girl full of heart
A thief touched by darkness
A boy with a fiery temper
An unwitting servant of evil
The era of magic was once thought to be a myth, but after the Reemergence ushered forces both dark and light into the mundane world, it has since become a harsh reality. Now those affected by this strange power-a specialized group of Empowered called Jokers, known collectively as Cardplay-must protect their world from the darkness that threatens to consume it, all the while fighting for equality in a society clinging to normalcy.
But the Reemergence was only the beginning.
When another influx occurs on the seventh anniversary of that fateful event, an unfortunate encounter at ground zero lands Iori Ryone, a teenage boy in possession of a corrupt and legendary magic, in the care of recent Joker graduate Ellen Amelia Jane. From him, she learns the Reemergence may not have been the inevitable natural disaster it first seemed.
Someone is trying to tear down the barrier that separates the magical realms from the mundane. The question is, can Cardplay stop them before it’s too late?
Bloody Spade is the first installment in an urban fantasy duology that follows a cat-eared thief and a spirited girl as they try to navigate his wild magic, her hotheaded brother, a sinister plot, and the feelings they’re developing for each other.
The Short Version:
Queer as hell, anime as hell, found family AS HELL. A fun, action- and magic-filled tale of love, betrayal, and friendship. Plus, catboy. If you love superheroes, anime-feeling action, and a big cast of diverse characters, give it a read!
The Detailed Version:
I knew I was going to love this book, tbh, the moment I saw things about it. It’s an intriguing, action-filled, but emotional story that follows characters who immediately felt like friends. A lot of other reviewers say it’s very “anime”, and it’s true: the magic system, the powers, the “logistics” of the group of heroes, and the action all have this sort of connotation which is pretty awesome for me because I love anime. I really enjoyed the whole world, it felt alive, even if we only get to know one city…one pretty important city at a pretty important time.
I loved loved loved Ellen, I just wanted to protect her, but she’s so strong too, while staying gentle and joyful. I honestly expected a more “tsundere” Iori, the sassy catboy that he is, but he ended up so much more wholesome and vulnerable, and I loved it a lot (of course, he was also sassy :D). I did love Alexander too, I did feel for him especially towards the end, but even back when he was at the same time understandably and aggravatingly annoying. x) There were a lot of side characters too, and while not all of them got too much space to show themselves or evolve, everyone was distinct and a personality, and it just helped to make the story even more alive. The antagonists were fearsome and cruel, and now even more so, closing in towards the second novel of the duology. There’s a lot of mystery still remaining after the first book’s final confrontation and I can’t wait to see where this story goes (even if I suspect it’s going to be painful…)
In true anime fashion, a lot of things were told about the world and the characters, and a lot of other things were also taken as knowledge someone living in this world should already have–but it was a good balance of navigating the book, and I wasn’t bothered too much by either extremes, to be honest. The writing was clear, heartfelt, and easy to read–I got sucked in pretty quickly. All in all just a lovely read if you’re looking for action, heartbreak, mysteries and a group of diverse characters fighting for good.
(Also, that aspec slowburn? Hell yeah.)
River in the Galaxy by Natalie Kelda
Genre: Fantasy
Published Year: 2023
First in ongoing series (but many of those can be read individually)
When Merlon’s parents disappeared, his world fell apart. When his best friend died, he lost the ability to enjoy life.
For Captain Merlon Ricosta, Lanier’s death, two years prior, feels like yesterday. But when a map from his parents is discovered, he decides to push aside his grief to get closure and follow the route they vanished along eighteen years ago.
Despite political trouble, Merlon leads his crew into the unknowns of strange galaxies in his quest to find out why his parents never returned.
In River in the Galaxy Merlon fights to keep his crew alive and suppress his prolonged grief and depression. But he must face his own struggles in order to protect the ship and the people aboard.
The Short Version:
Sailships in space! Depression representation, slow but adventurous, cool characters and relationships depicted. Expansive, very interesting world full of interesting creatures and navigated by its own physics and rules. If you love Treasure Planet, a slower pace but still plenty of intrigue, sailor camaraderie, and characters that will sneak into your heart, read this!
The Detailed Version:
I went into this book not knowing much except that I loved the cover and the author seemed like a nice person on twitter. 🙂 But I’m very happy I decided to read this, and I’m very grateful for the ARC to the author.
I don’t often read space-y fantasy–it’s usually either fantasy or sci-fi for me. And in theory, I love the idea of seafaring ships floating around space and in between nebulas and all, however, in practice, I needed a bit of time to get used to it. My astronomer brain also kept shouting at me about how “galaxies” and “universe” and stuff like this were sort of redefined in this book, and how strange it was, until the craft of storytelling and the loveable (and less loveable) characters finally took my mind off such details.
The novel is about Captain Merlon Ricosta, and his search of his long-lost parents. Setting out from one of the floating cities peppering his civilization, the Inner Universe, he and his crew crosses a galaxy river (a space nebula with energy currents, sort of) and faces many dangers and curiosities to follow their trail: strange beings, new friends and enemies, dangers never seen. We will get acquainted with the crew and their life aboard Lucia, the ship, which is anything but easy (I loved all the details about the ship and how it worked!), and we will slowly get to know their history and more about the world surrounding them. But the book is really about Merlon himself. His life, his emotional wounds, inner journey, and his relationships with his crew (old and new) are always in the center; there is adventure, tension, and intrigue, yes, but you should expect a slower, more introspective, sensitive story about a wounded man who tries his best, fails many times, but lives through it as best as he can. I truly loved Merlon, and Adrien, and Tara, and a lot of the others in the crew as well. In the beginning, I was sort of dropped into the world and information about it, and the characters came quite hectically: some slowly, some quickly. I felt like one more introductory chapter before they set sail would have helped, but I got quickly oriented after anyway, and not so much later I was already friends with this crew, so…it worked out very well.
And the last third of the novel was so tense and mysterious! I was biting my nails! And since it’s a duology as far as I know, not everything gets answered, so now I’m left here wondering about the blue-haired people and the strange flying and swimming beings and Trackers and asteroid fields and whatnot. This world will stay with me for a long-long time and I can’t wait to get to know what happens with Merlon and the others next.
This Too Shall Burn by Cat Rector
Genre: Fantasy
Published Year: 2023
Standalone
Arden has lived in the woods near the deeply religious town of Arrothburg all her life, practising magic and keeping balance with nature. She heals the sick, as her mother did before her. No matter how deeply the people of the village hate witches, they still arrive at Arden’s cabin in the dead of night, looking for help that their pastor, mayor, and doctor would never provide.
Verity is trapped in a life she doesn’t want. Her mother was burned as a witch six years ago, forcing Verity into the role of caretaker for her father and her younger siblings. The Good Book asks her to serve, and so she does. But it also asks her to endure the ungodly, debilitating agony of her monthly bleeding. No medicine, no comfort, no protests. If God is kind, why is she so cursed?
When a chance encounter between them leaves both their skin charred at a single touch, Arden and Verity are left with questions that may get them killed.
Does something wicked live inside Verity?
If Arden is the only true witch for miles, who is burning on the pyres?
Will they be next?
The Short Version:
It’s feminist AF, it talks about female health, and it criticizes bigot religiousness. Plus, Cat Rector’s writing is personal and beautiful. If you love being angry and burning down toxic stuff, read this!
The Detailed Version:
I knew I was going to like this when I read “witches” and “menstrual health”. Plus, the author has already successfully broken my heart several times (I still owe myself to read the sequels and short stories belonging to The Goddess of Nothing At All, but I’ll get there) so I was curious what kind of pain she will offer me now. I wasn’t left disappointed! I didn’t think I could get this angry and sad (but more angry tbh) over the depicted clashes of religious backwardsness and well, proper handling of health and womanhood, because we all know how these things went and in many ways, still go, but I did. I did get angry. Like a lot.
Arden and Verity were really the perfect characters to show this kind of tension with. I loved Arden’s bluntness and sarcasm, but compassion and kindness as well, plus her relationship with nature and its spirits. And Verity…it would have been so easy to dislike the religious, meek girl for me, especially when faced with truths she had a hard time accepting those. But that’s just it. Bigotry and (religious and otherwise) abuse hurts us all, and some more than others. The fact that these things happened (because even though the book’s world is magical, it really resembles true historical times) boils my blood, and especially that remains of it is still all over our thinking. I felt for Verity, her struggles and uncertainties and frustration. All of it.
The book is relatively uncomplicated and straightforward as it speaks about these issues, but that’s a strength, I think. We need books like this. Stories that talk about periods and births (and the way God-fearing citizens can handle these things) honestly, as they are, without the weird fetishizing/glorifying and/or demonizing that usually connects to them and sex and sexual preferences and raising children. I have a lot of feelings about this and the book echoed many of them.
I liked Arden and Verity’s careful friendship as well, and how the book handled the progress we reached by the end. Because yeah, progress is slow, and weird, and scary, but it has to happen.
And let me just say, this was not enough, can I just read the adventures of Arden and Verity keeping women safe and educating them and going on weird spirit quests or something similar? I’d love that. Witches as healers, which what they mostly were, weren’t they, are my jam.
Great book, great themes. Absolutely needed. And the cover is beautiful. Another win for Cat Rector.
The Crossing by Laurie Janey
Genre: Science-fiction fantasy
Published Year: 2022
Standalone
Those who cross into Rheta from other worlds don’t usually arrive alive. Berro collects the crosser bodies for a prestigious secret project headed by his academic mentor, and he’s proud of his role, but when a living, breathing woman arrives in the forest through a crack in reality, the project and Berro’s ordered life are thrown into disarray.
On Rheta, nature is thriving and conflict is a distant memory. Chaos and cruelty are things belonging to other worlds, other times, and most Rhetari have lapsed into blissful complacency. But Berro is at the epicentre of an event that calls the delicate balance into question. As the crossing project unravels, he confronts the ugly truths about the civilisation he lives in, the work he’s committed to, and the broken parts of himself.
The Short Version:
A slow-paced but intense, very atmospheric book that expertly mixes sci-fi and fantasy with amazing characters and a concept that will stay with me forever. If you love Annihilation, the podcast Tanis, big mysterious forests and drinking tea with your friends, try this!
The Detailed Version:
This book ended up to be not what I expected but also exactly what I wanted at the same time.
It’s really hard to write about this one because I think one needs to go into it and discover it for oneself alone. I read the first chapter for my BBNYA First Chapter Readthrough challenge…thingy and it impressed me immediately with the moody, mysterious style, the science fantasy (is this science fantasy? for me, it is) setting, and the character work. All those things just become better and better as you read more, too. I was intrigued by the crossing phenomenon and couldn’t wait to learn about it more.
However, this book is slow. Count on it. It is slow and awesome. Sure, there’s plot. The crossing is important and we get to know more and more, there’s tension and secrets and even fight scenes, but as much as it is about parallel worlds and a post-apocalyptic, technologically advanced and ecologically balanced utopia and its pitfalls (and yes it took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out that Rheta is an anagram for Earth), people’s evil and greed, and, surprisingly, the prison system, it’s also about…just a group of friends navigating the world and their relationships. Drinking a lot of tea, climbing trees, smoking weed (sort of!), talking and messaging each other, and grappling with their roots and their futures.
And that takes center stage beside world-rending secrets and large sociatal changes, and it might be weird at first, but I didn’t mind at all. All the POV characters were really-really great with their own stories, fears, and journeys. Berro was an instant favorite…his relationship insecurities, his longing for praise and recognition, his doubts about his family and his role in everything spoke to me and his story was lovingly told. Virda took some time, but I love that angry girl so much. Fessi was the most mysterious of all, but I loved her connection to nature and the “marrow of the world” (what an amazing concept). Some things I wanted to delve into more ended up to be not as emphasized…no matter how wholesome the book is, there’s a LOT of things crammed into it from all the well-rounded characters to the many-many interesting alternate world building Stuff, so naturally, a few things or characters didn’t get as much time as maybe I wished for. I didn’t feel dissatisfied anyway. If anything, I’d just want more. More stories in this world (worlds?) and more time with this group of people I really got to love.
What a great read. I really recommend if you don’t mind intricate story and character crafting that takes its time but weaves expertly around many different themes, feelings, and ideas. And if you love cool forests. And tea.
The Binding of Bloom Mountain by Siggy Chambers
Genre: Fantasy, Horror
Published Year: 2023
Standalone (perhaps part of a later series)
“One fool in search of money wins a cursed mountain and a lifetime of nightmares…”
When Celeste Foster loses her job with the US Forestry Service, she finds solace in drinking herself stupid every night. But when she sees an ad that says “ADVENTURERS WANTED” and “compensation upon completion”, she pulls herself together to head for the town of Milton.
In the mountains of Northwest Virginia, she enters a portal to an alternate Shenandoah Valley. Here monsters and gods live alongside humans, and every family has magic in their blood. But a curse festers on the slopes of Bloom Mountain. A decade has passed with no one to bind the magic, and soon the curse will destroy Milton.
Armed with a recording, a bag of ritual items, and fresh scones from the cute barista that housed her, Celeste starts up Bloom Mountain. The Binding tests her endurance, sanity, and ability to adapt to this new world. If she can survive the horrors on the mountain, there might be more than just money waiting for her at the end.
The Short Version:
The coziest spooky book I’ve ever read. The lore was amazing, the autism representation lovely. I will remember the ritual hike I took with Celeste for a long time. If you love flawed but badass protagonists, nature-related lore, cute witches, and scary rituals, read this!
The Detailed Version:
I had the privilege to follow the journey of this book a little bit on social media and reading some early versions, and I’m so happy I can be here now talking about the ARC, and hopefully having a physical copy on my shelf very soon. The Binding of Bloom Mountain is the spooky, but somehow still comforting journey of Celeste, a woman finding herself without work and real goals one late August day. Out of necessity and perhaps some defiance, she takes on a mysterious job that leads her back into the forests and valleys of her half-forgotten childhood vacations and reveals a world that was carefully hidden from her thus far.
I loved discovering the “hike” and its nature along with Celeste. The people she met in and around the town of Milton were memorable additions to her journey and made me want to visit as well, although, well, maybe it’s not the safest part of the wilderness. 😀 This parallel world was so interesting and I hoped to get to know more and more about it. Celeste was a protagonist I could relate to, from the anxiety attacks she went through to the guts she showed when confronted with the otherwordly (and psychological) dangers (I can only hope to also show that quiet but forceful sass in my own life, hehe).
I also loved the little bits of the mosaic of lore that infused the whole setting and the people living in it. There’s so much space for worldbuilding still, and it’s all very intriguing. The steps of the ritual were immersive, the creatures she met terrifying and lovely, and I was there with Celeste every step of the way. The descriptions were great, they really took me into that world. And then of course, we have some reveals and the solutions to some mysteries, and I already can’t wait to read more about this world! 🙂
The peculiar mood and pace of the story truly remained with me after closing the book on the last lines. The image of Celeste trudging forward in the woods listening to the audio recording that told her the steps of the ritual will be something I won’t forget very soon. I really recommend this novel to those who would like a quiet, mysterious, but somehow still familiar book about woods and the spookies and all the stories (human and otherworldly) living there.
Helyna’s Book Spotlight
Skylark in the Fog
Science-fiction/space opera
Published Year: 2022
So when the universe falls to pieces, it doesn’t mean your life has to, right? That comes later.
Jeane Blake, captain of the spaceship Skylark, makes her living by looting dead worlds, planets fallen prey to naturally occurring wormhole-like rifts plaguing the cosmos. She survives the only way she knows how: avoiding commitment and arguing with her dead foster father’s ghost. But when her crew stumbles upon an alien device that could collapse the wormhole network and wipe out all sentient life, they catch the hungry eyes of the Union, a tyrannical empire hunting the sinister tech.
As she flees the Union’s brainwashed agents, Jeane is forced to take on a shady mission and gets stuck assisting the runaway monarch of a technocrat planet. Queen Maura Tholis is seeking the aid of an interstellar resistance to reclaim her war-torn world, with another trouble-magnet device as her bargaining chip: a glove that allows her to command AI systems. Jeane couldn’t care less about the whole deal, but things become personal when the Union annexes the place she calls home. And it might be her fault.
Reluctant to become weapons in the hands of power-hungry militants and desperate rebels, smuggler and queen join forces. But to save their homes, they must redefine themselves, work with the enemy, and face personal traumas they’d buried long ago—and only stars know which challenge might break them in the end.
Find Skylark in the Fog on Goodreads , IndieStoryGeek and Storygraph. Readers who enjoyed Becky Chambers’ Wayfarer books, The Expanse series by James S.A. Corey, love Star Wars, Star Trek or Firefly would like this novel.
