Available for a limited time while supplies last. From award-winning and USA Today bestselling author Kosoko Jackson comes his adult speculative debut, a stand-alone novel blending time travel and globe-hopping adventure, art history, and dark fantasy about magical paintings and the lengths people will go to collect them, destroy them...or be destroyed. A picture is worth a thousand nightmares. Art has always been an escape for struggling painter Lewis Dixon. But other than his mom, who has recently passed away, no one has ever praised his work. If he is being honest, there's really no one in his life. So he is shocked when the British Museum shows an unusual interest in his art. This is his chance to show the world what he's capable of...he just has no idea that he might also be saving the world at the same time. As Lewis soon learns, he has not been invited to participate in a curated show, but rather a test: to see if the fugue-like exhilaration he experiences when painting is actually magic, a power that allows him to enter nine very special paintings--paintings made by his great-grandfather. Spread across the globe, these paintings have unbelievable eldritch abilities...and not necessarily beneficial ones. In terms of power, these are the most valuable works of art in the world, and there are those out there who would do anything to possess just one. And Lewis, upon passing the test, has been asked to destroy them all. Partnered with an alluring agent in museum's employ, Noah Rao, Lewis must travel to Japan, Australia, Nigeria--and the past--plunging himself into a world of black markets, gothic magic, ancient history, and cursed objects to save those unlucky enough to call any of the paintings their own--or to free the world from those who would misuse the power of the paintings. In doing so, he will need to discover if he has what it takes to truly be an artist, the confidence to finally open himself up to someone who could give his lonely life meaning, and the strength to enter and navigate a reality where magic is everywhere.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24mm81hfsjb6x81bdp1b01.jpg?v=455895d161","LWMQYE%h_NbIxDozt7j[.9IUIUoJ",2025,400,[240],{"id":241,"slug":242,"name":243},"01kqpthkfazaj29y17nhwbj030","kosoko-jackson-zqch","Kosoko Jackson",[245,249,250,254,258,262,266,267,271,275,276],{"id":246,"name":247,"slug":248,"is_fiction":18},24,"Dark Fantasy","dark-fantasy",{"id":109,"name":110,"slug":111,"is_fiction":18},{"id":251,"name":252,"slug":253,"is_fiction":18},2,"Fantasy","fantasy",{"id":255,"name":256,"slug":257,"is_fiction":18},6,"Mystery","mystery",{"id":259,"name":260,"slug":261,"is_fiction":18},3,"Science Fiction","science-fiction",{"id":263,"name":264,"slug":265,"is_fiction":18},30,"Time Travel","time-travel",{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":268,"name":269,"slug":270,"is_fiction":18},140,"Adventure","adventure",{"id":272,"name":273,"slug":274,"is_fiction":18},22,"Magical Realism","magical-realism",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":18},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":225,"complexity":7,"audience":88,"mood":279,"themes":281,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[150,280],"tense",[282,283],"survival","morally-grey",{"id":285,"slug":286,"title":287,"description":288,"primary_cover_url":289,"cover_blurhash":290,"first_publish_year":237,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":7,"authors":291,"genres":293,"series":303,"enrichment":309},"01kx6sjasvx1k3cnbsjkk0q19m","the-liminal-zone-vol-2-qpaw","The Liminal Zone, Vol. 2","Four-time Eisner Award winner Junji Ito presents brand-new nightmares!

Retail worker Emmett Truesdale has never fit the Southern California mold of six-pack, suntanned masculinity. Over three hundred pounds, he carries the weight of his childhood trauma and millennial ennui around his waist and in his soul. After trying every diet under the sun, he remains stuck—in his dead-end job, in love, and in his body. Desperate for help, he enrolls in a clinical trial for a new weight loss product called Obexity. The treatment is as horrifying as the results are miraculous and as Emmett sheds pounds at superhuman speed, every part of his life improves overnight. Unfortunately, Obexity comes with some killer side effects, including lost stretches of time and overwhelming cravings. Worse, people who were cruel to him have started disappearing and when the police warn of a cannibalistic killer on the loose, he fears that Obexity is turning him into a monster. But how can he give it up now that people are finally starting to treat him like he’s human? Nerve-racking, sinister, and at times surreal, Nothing Tastes as Good is an unputdownable thriller that combines The Substance with the best of Stephen King and keeps you guessing until the final page.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26cf2f8xr35gby82frpthv.jpg?v=de442582f3","LaQl]]tQ_Mt7ShfkaKayozafMyay",2026,[704],{"id":705,"slug":706,"name":707},"01kx26cf29ydys4eap7symc6q6","luke-dumas-dlvm","Luke Dumas",[709,710,711,712],{"id":109,"name":110,"slug":111,"is_fiction":18},{"id":505,"name":506,"slug":507,"is_fiction":18},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":568,"name":569,"slug":570,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":225,"complexity":7,"audience":88,"mood":715,"themes":716,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[150,280,149],[],[]]
