If You Like Cassandra Khaw Books, You’ll Love…

Cassandra Khaw Synopses: The All-Consuming World is the debut novel by Cassandra Khaw. Maya has died – and been resurrected into countless cyborg bodies – over the long, perilous career she spent with the infamous Dirty Dozen, the galaxy’s most legendary crew of criminals. Decades after their brutal demise, Maya and her fractured team of diminished, haunted outlaws are forced back together to unravel the mystery of their last disastrous mission and rescue a missing, irrevocably changed comrade.

But they are not alone. The galaxy’s highly evolved AI has its own designs, determined to prevent humanity from reclaiming control. As Maya and her crew spiral closer to uncovering the AIs’ vast, shadowy conspiracy, they must confront their own traumas – and fight a universe of sentient ageships bent on their destruction. Half-clone, half-machine, these violent women must battle enemies seen and unseen to settle their scores… once and for all.

The Library at Hellebore is a standalone novel by Cassandra Khaw. The Hellebore Technical Institute for the Gifted is the premier academy for the dangerously powerful: the Anti-Christs and Ragnaroks, the world-eaters and apocalypse-makers. Hellebore promises redemption, acceptance, and a normal life after graduation. At least, that’s what Alessa Li is told after she’s kidnapped and forcibly enrolled. But the Institute is more than just a haven for monsters. On graduation day, the faculty embark on a ravenous rampage, feasting on their students. Trapped in the school’s cavernous library, Alessa and her surviving classmates must do something they were never taught: work together.

Fool of the Gods by Cassandra Khaw is the fourth book in the Gods and Monsters multi-author series. By day, Rupert Wong – sorcerer, chef, and former triad – serves up exquisite dishes of human flesh to a dynasty of ghouls in Kuala Lumpur. By night, he oversees the bureaucracy of the Ten Chinese Hells. It’s a living, of sorts.

But when the Dragon of the South demands that Rupert investigate the murders of his daughter and her mortal husband, he’s plunged into a war between gods – bewildering, brutal, and bloody.

To survive, Rupert will need to stay sharp, stay lucky… and always read the fine print.

Bells Hells: What Doesn’t Break by Cassandra Khaw is a prequel to the Critical Role series, set prior to campaign one. For as long as she can remember, Laudna has had a companion – a mentor, a whispering voice in her cropped ear – promising that no matter how monstrous she becomes, no matter how far she strays, someone will always guide her.

And so, Laudna is content.

But the allure of more – life, love, the magic still stirring in her veins – refuses to be silenced. More is the dream of the young girl trapped behind the bloodstained walls of Whitestone, and the nightmare of the woman who now stalks the woods beyond them. More, the little voice warns, is dangerous. From Tal’Dorei to Marquet, heroes roam the kingdoms, destined to hunt creatures like Laudna.

The voice is right – she knows that.

Yet still, Laudna reaches for more. And when she does, what reaches back will change everything.
