Here at Pegasus Publishers, we would like to celebrate this week by reaching ou...

Sometimes short and sweet is the best. We love expansive epics and complex stories just as much as a regular reader, but to sit down and be taken on numerous adventures, meet a wide range of characters and to do so within the confines of one book is an excellent way to spend an afternoon reading. We spoke with Meenakshi Kumar about her choice to write in the short form, the benefits of doing so and the influences which inspired her when writing. ------------------------------...

Or perhaps you’ve been reading lots of different titles and haven’t been able to finish any of them. We at Pegasus are just as guilty of these literary crimes, so have compiled a list of five books we think will help you out of a reading slump. These are from a variety of genres but are all under 200 pages long - so there should be so...

We adore thrillers at Pegasus Publishers and were so impressed with Meredith Vivian’s debut Running Hard, released back in 2019. Now, five years later, Meredith’s follow-up (but not continuation) novel Gorgeous and Adorable is drawing us to the edge of our seats once more. We spoke with Meredith about his changes in writing between titles, his love of the thriller genre and the importance of setting his book in the 1970s… ---------------------------------------...
