Anticipated November New Releases

November 6, 2023

The weather might be turning cold and dreary, and the days shorter, but my mood will be lifted by November’s new book releases.

Book cover for The Olympian Affair by Jim Butcher. Red background. Crystal crown with two crossed swords in front of the crown.

At long last, we’re getting the second book in Jim Butcher’s fantastic Steampunk series The Cinder Spires. The first book came out in 2015 and the latest book, The Olympian Affair, comes out November 7, 2023. It’s been so long since the first book that I’m definitely going to have to do a re-read before I start the new one!

Book cover of Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. Orange background. Filigree style ball with pointed ends in the middle. Flames at each side. Small silhouettes of dragons. Black bottom of the cover.

November 7^th also brings the release of Iron Flame, Book 2 in The Empyrean fantasy series by Rebecca Yarros. I read the first book back in June and have been eagerly anticipating this book ever since. This is definitely first on my to-be-read list.

Book cover of System Collapse by Martha Wells. A human-like figure in futuristic armor crouches, facing away from the viewer. a faint image of a giant insect like creature or device is in the background. Light grey at top, black at bottom.

Then, on November 14, 2023, System Collapse, the seventh book in Martha Wells’s The Murderbot Diaries science fiction series comes out. I love Murderbot SO MUCH and can’t wait to read this!

Book cover of Defiant by Brandon Sanderson. Orange background with a girl wearing a white futuristic flight suit. Her long brown hair seems to be moving. Light silhouettes her head.

Finally, November 21, 2023 sees Defiant, book four in Brandon Sanderson’s young adult science fiction series coming out. I’m excited to see how the final book in The Skyward Series wraps everything up.

What about you? What are you looking forward to reading in November?
