The end of one year and the beginning of the next always has me working to read books that I missed or which I’ve been really wanting to read for a while. Accordingly, I’ve packed along three books while I’ve been traveling to see family over the holidays, using the opportunity to catch up.

The first is William Gibson’s 2014 science fiction novel The Peripheral, spurred on by news that Amazon is adapting the novel for an original streaming series, and the upcoming sequel called Agency (see more on that below). The novel is set between two time periods, the near future and slightly more distant future, with an interesting take on time travel. The second is Leigh Bardugo’s debut adult novel, Ninth House, about Yale’s mysterious, magical houses, and the efforts of a mysterious “ninth house” that keep them all in check. It’s fantastically detailed, and Bardugo has the perfect blend of characters and setting to keep me going. Finally, I’ve been listening to Daniel Suarez’s Delta-V, a techno thriller that takes place in the 2030s as the private space race kicks off, following cave diver James Tighe as he goes through an intense training regime as he prepares to become one of humanity’s first asteroid miners.

2020 brings a whole lot of new science fiction and fantasy novels to delve into. Here are 15 coming out in January to check out.
