FANDOM NAME: The Left-Handed Booksellers of London - Garth Nix WHAT MAKES IT GREAT: Garth Nix’s latest is set in a slightly-alternate 1980s England, where magical creatures and faerie royalty occasionally spill over into mundane reality. They’re kept in check by an ancient secret society/very extended family who, well, also sell books. When Susan Arkenshore comes to London from her rural hometown in search of her absentee father, all hell breaks loose, and she winds up sucked into the Booksellers’ world.
It’s a fun quasi-urban fantasy romp, with lots of derring-do and snark, some pretty great sibling dynamics (between the two youthful Booksellers who take up Susan’s cause), and a ridiculous fop of a genderfluid love interest. Lots of opportunity to play with worldbuilding, and plenty of m/f and f/f potential.
WHERE CAN I FIND IT?: Bookstores, libraries, audio and e-book sellers!
