Oh, to be in love in New York City! The big apple is alluring to all sorts of romance: movies and TV shows, music, novels and, of course, real life. If you’ve never visited New York yourself, Rhys J.

We caught up with Rhys to talk with him about what lead to him writing this book, how he settled on his two protagonists, and what it was like to tackle a New York ba...

Every year, on January 1st (then or shortly after) you will always here someone proclaim: “I should really read more this year.” It’s often, just like every other New Year’s resolution, a hollow promise. Well-intended and easily achievable (“read more” carries a very loose expectation), but by January 17th, otherwise known as Ditch Your Resolution Day, a cover has oftentimes barely been flicked, let alone a whole novel devoured. 17 days (with five of those being weekends or b...
A new year offers a time of reflection and a new admiration for the world around us.

We spoke with her about her storytelling and illustrating process, the memories from her time spent in Scotland, and where her 2024 and beyond may be heading. ---------------------------...
A good ghost story never goes amiss around Christmas time, you can be sure of that. We recently had the privilege of speaking with Peter Storm, author of 'The Chine', a chilling novel set in a sinister hotel.

November has been and gone, which means that we made some fantastic additions to our roster here at Pegasus. Today, we wanted to spotlight five (just five, you know we'd spotlight all of them if we could) books from our roster that you absolutely must pay attention to. Adam Vincent- How Not to Kill Yourself When Living in the Suburbs Adam Vincent's 'How Not to Kill Yourself When Living in the Suburbs' is as witty and clever as its title.

We had the privilege this week of speaking with Lance Cerff, author of 'Orca's Revenge', to speak about his Peter Benchley-esque novel, the number of books he has authored and his words of wisdom for budding writers. Check out Lance's book here. 1).
