The Looking Glass Wars – Frank Beddor
One of my favourites of 2022, this take on the original Alice in Wonderland is fantastic. Heir to Wonderland, Alyss, is forced from her home by an uprising led by her Aunt Redd. Years later Alyss returns with her bodyguard Hatter Madigan to attempt to take her throne. Brilliant!
Rivers of London – Ben Aaronovitch
First in the series, Constable Peter Grant discovers the “other” police department focused around wizards, witches and all creatures magical. Becoming a trainee wizard is harder than he thought it was going to be, especially with a nest of vampires and a vengeful spirit to battle with!
