2023 saw the publication of Madeleine Nakamura’s novel Cursebreakers, about a onetime academic looking to save his city from a magical curse. Nakamura has followed that up with a new novel continuing where that left off. Angel Eye follows the same protagonist as he reckons with a series of magical killings and his own mental health.
