The Ruin of Angels

Max Gladstone

Kai, a familiar face from Five Fathoms Deep, finds herself in the bewildering city of Agdel Lex, a metropolis risen from the ashes of the ancient Alikand. Drawn there by a summons from her estranged sister, Ley, Kai discovers Ley entangled in a dangerous web of secrets and power struggles. The city itself is a labyrinth of forgotten magic and perilous ambition, where 'Delvers' brave the ruins of the Dead City in search of lost knowledge. As Kai navigates this treacherous new world, she must confront not only the city's mysteries but also the fractured bonds of her own family, all while the shadow of Gerhardt's destructive past looms large.

Three Parts Dead

Max Gladstone

In the city of Alt Coulumb, gods power the infrastructure, and the sudden death of its fire god threatens to plunge millions into chaos. Tara, a young necromantic attorney, is assigned to resurrect her divine client—but when evidence points to murder, she and a disillusioned priest must investigate while navigating legal battles, corporate intrigue, and supernatural danger. Blending urban fantasy, courtroom mystery, and imaginative magical world-building, the novel explores faith, power, responsibility, and the uneasy relationship between law and the divine.
