A Civil Campaign
Shares a pleasure in formal courtship rhetoric and aristocratic manners, but delivered as warm comic novel with an actual love plot rather than scholarly excerpts.
Dead of winter
Trades classical desert lyric for tarot-driven apocalypse: much darker, violent, and openly romantic, though still steeped in old mythic archetypes and fated language.
Poison princess
Keeps the taste for myth and prophecy but recasts it as a bleak teen post-apocalypse with a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers hook instead of poetry.
