It's the start of a new year, and it is a bit of a slow one in terms of new releases. I find that when the year starts out, I don't have many new releases on my shelf. That is probably because the vast majority of them haven't been fully announced yet, and therefore I have yet to stumble upon them. It also doesn't help that books are still being delayed due to the pandemic, so it is hard to keep track of when they are officially being released. Nonetheless, I do have a good amount of books on my radar that are coming out this month.
As always, as well, you can check out Rob J. Hayes if you're looking for some self-published fantasy books and Io9 for its list of new releases.
So, without further ado...
