Here’s a sneak peak at two of Entangled Publishing’s most anticipated Releases of 2026:

Dragon Cursed by Elise Kova -Mayhem Books – 1/6/26 (book 1 in a new series)

The moment you see a dragon is usually your last…

Since the dragons emerged–along with the scourge that ravaged our lands and people–there’s only one human city that remains standing: Vinguard.

But the hellfire from above is nothing compared to to the threat from within. For there is no worse fate than being dragon cursed. Slowly and excruciatingly, you’ll be transformed into a mindless beast who destroys everything–and everyone–you love. Any of us could be tainted. Any of us could be lying.

Any of us could be caught and killed by the authorities.

And I’m terrified that I might be next.

There’s only one other person who might suspect my secret. He’s like my shadow, following me wherever I go. Part protector, part tormentor, fully annoying. Sometimes I think I am just one of the million unfathomable secrets he keeps hidden.

Because Lucan definitely knows something.

And if I’m dragon cursed, death might be the only mercy I get.

 

A Stage Set for Villains by Shannon J. Spann – Mayhem Books – 2/3/26 (standalone)

The gods are dead. All that’s left are the Players…

The performers of the Playhouse are as worshipped as they are feared, their enchanting shows bending hearts, minds, and even reality itself. Vicious, godlike, lethal. Eighteen-year-old Riven Hesper knows the dangers better than anyone, after her own encounter with a Player resulted in a curse that is slowly killing her.

When the Playhouse announces the spectacle of a lifetime—a chance for one mortal to steal a Player’s immortality—Riven sees her last chance to live. Desperate for answers, she infiltrates the competition. There, she finds Jude, the Playhouse’s brilliant, merciless Lead Player, whose charm is as dangerous as his Craft, and strikes a deadly bargain to save her life.

But with time running out and the Playhouse’s secrets unraveling into a disturbing picture, Riven faces a grim possibility: she might not be the hero of her story after all. In fact, she may be the villain.

Because the Playhouse doesn’t just tell stories. It rewrites them.

And Riven’s might end in blood.

Caraval meets One Dark Window in this lush and dark fantasy.

    OMG, I had a chance to read DRUID CURSED by C.J. Burright and SHIELD OF SPARROWS by Devney Perry. I LOVED them! I would so love to own print copies. And the rest of the books – gah, I want. Entangled Publishing books rock!

  2. Janine Rowe

    I haven’t had the chance to read these authors before. These books sound very interesting.

  3. Audrey Stewart

    C.J. Burright is a favorite author of mine. I read Jade Preseley’s book series The Shattered Isle over the summer and I loved it!

  4. Lori Byrd Johannes

    Not today Satan caught my eye. Titles are always the first thing I look at. Love titles.

  5. Karen Markuson

    I’ve read a SHIELD OF SPARROWS by Devney Perry. I loved this book!

  6. psu1493

    Both sound good, but I am interested in reading the dragon story first.

    Dragon Cursed caught my attention because of its amazing cover and story. Not sure if Kingsumo is working for me. I tried entering with my email and I have tried with my Google account, and I am not sure if either entry went through.

  8. Janie McGaugh

    I’ve read Filthy Rich Fae and Assistant to the Villain and enjoyed them. Dragon Cursed looks really interesting.
