New Releases: This weekend, readers can dive into two compelling narratives that blend unique themes and settings.
Beartooth
Callan Wink’s novel, Beartooth, explores the struggles of two brothers, Thad and Hazen, in the rugged backdrop of Montana. Following their father’s death, the brothers face overwhelming challenges, including medical debt and an unstable home. Desperate for money, they undertake an illegal job harvesting elk sheds in Yellowstone National Park. The novel is noted for its vivid descriptions and character development, offering a deep look into their emotional and physical struggles.
Warm Fusion
DSTLRY’s new comic series, Warm Fusion, combines elements of body horror and science fiction. Set in a dystopian version of New York City plagued by perpetual rain and birth defects from a pharmaceutical disaster, the story follows detective Jarrod Hannover and escort Vin Young as they investigate a series of brutal killings targeting sex workers. The narrative introduces Nicholas Fleischer, a scientist behind an experimental treatment that may regenerate lost limbs. With its engaging plot and cyberpunk aesthetic, the series promises to captivate readers. The second issue was released this week, with the next installment expected in mid-April.
Both titles offer gripping narratives that explore complex themes and characters, making them worthwhile additions to any weekend reading list.
