Debut Novels
Debt to Pleasure
This is not a conventional cookbook.... So begins John Lanchester\'s astonishing debut novel in which the impeccably correct Tarquin Winot relates the story of his life through that most basic and sublime of human passions: Food.
Trial by Ice and Fire
Clinton McKinzie has carved out his own unique territory with suspense novels that blend the heart-pounding thrills of extreme mountain climbing with gripping legal intrigue. ?One of the strongest debuts of the year?
King Kelson's Bride
When we first met Kelson (in Kurtz's debut novel, Deryni Rising), he was fourteen and about to ascend to the throne of Gwynedd, the medieval realm that never was, where a small minority of the populace, the Deryni, have magical abilities.
The Extra Man: A Novel
Jonathan Ames, whose debut novel I Pass Like Night was enthusiastically praised by Philip Roth and Joyce Carol Oates, has followed up with a brilliant and comic second novel.
The Cheese Monkeys: A Novel in Two Semesters
A hilarious debut novel that could only be described as a portrait of the designer as a young man. "Um...so what exactly is a Cheese Monkey?" Good question. But strictly off-limits.
