Deal of the Week

Klein and Taylor Team Up for FSG
Alex Star at FSG took U.S. rights to End Times Fascism by Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor. The authors were represented by Kimberly Witherspoon at InkWell Management and Melissa Flashman at Janklow & Nesbit Associates, respectively. Per FSG, the book explores a “new iteration of the far right” comprising an alliance of “religious fundamentalists, Silicon Valley technologists, and ethno-nationalists” who are “united in their belief that some kind of cleansing cataclysm is coming” and “convinced they will be among the saved.” Release is set for September 2026.

Union Square Nets Grainger’s British Sleuth Series
Emily Meehan and Claire Wachtel at Union Square & Co. preempted North American rights for Peter Grainger’s previously self-published DC Smith/Kings Lake Investigation series from Emma Parry at Janklow & Nesbit Associates.

More New Book Deals of Note
Among this week’s offerings are an as-yet-untitled book by Gilmore Girls creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and star Lauren Graham that will take readers behind the scenes of the beloved aughts-era dramedy; Heather Radke’s Juvenalia, which considers the notion of the “wildness” of preadolescent girls through a blend of memoir, science, reportage, and folklore; and an English manga adaptation of the Japanese mystery-horror novel Strange Pictures by Uketsu, with art by Aiba Noriyuki.

The Latest in Children’s and YA Deals
New projects this week include Like the Moon We Rise by Annabelle Cormack, a debut YA fantasy following Auriel, a servant-witch who is offered a bargain by the haughty Prince Ambrose: pretend to be the enchantress prophesied to liberate his people from the cruel Empress, and live a life of luxury and power, but the more Auriel learns about the Empress, the less sure she is that she’s the enemy; Kiersten White’s Wilde and Wicked, in which a girl reluctantly accepts a boarding school scholarship, only to discover she's the heir to a notorious magical bloodline everyone thought was destroyed; and Seven Dishes to Fall in Love by debut author Kate Emilie, a speculative contemporary novel aimed at fans of You’ve Reached Sam and If I Stay, which follows teenager Zoe who becomes suspended between life and death and must untangle her life-altering regret before her death becomes permanent.
