What stood out at this year's London Book Fair was the unwavering momentum all the way up to the final day when things usually wind down, our schedules packed right up to the final hour. We were also struck by how many people made the effort to attend, or to set up virtual meetings despite everything happening globally. And across conversations the mood was clear: most people are feeling bullish about book sales for the rest of 2026. We’re grateful for a memorable last fair at the Victorian wonder that was Olympia.

February Deal Highlights

Exciting News

Throughout our meetings at LBF, publishers asked to see horror, romantasy, gay romance, sports romance, mafia and serial killer fiction as well as any literary standouts. 

On home turf, People magazine (circulation 47million) has cover revealed our favorite Gods & Monsters to announce Book 5 in Amber V. Nicole’s electrifying dark romantasy series. The Fall of the Crowned King continues the saga of spellbinding characters who dominate the page-turning drama and will be published in late November 2026.
