Some stories to try
I'm part of several author collectives, and we share each other's work to try to help all of us reach more readers. In many cases, the books we share are are free or discounted. Sometimes, they ask that you sign up for a newsletter like this one.
I have three works by fellow authors and then a group event to share this time. First is a collection of fantasy short stories from Alexis Lantgen called Saints and Curses. These are quite well reviewed, with readers commenting on the variety of stories, from scary to funny. Interestingly, the reviews I read all point to different stories in the collection that they enjoyed. I haven't read it yet myself, but I encourage you to have a look.
Next, I'd like to share Siouca Remembers, a sci fi novel that is set in James Murdo's Wanderer Universe. Told from multiple perspectives and through different cultures, this story weaves those threads together as they anticipate the return of an ancient being. Sounds like great stuff, and it is very well reviewed. Please, have a look.
Third, I have Occupation, a book by the prolific indie author Jay Toney. This is the second in a series about an alien occupation of Earth, including a reimagining of early human prehistory and history.
Finally, I have a promotion from many different indie fantasy authors. The theme of this promotion is the Self-Published Fantasy Blog Off (SPFBO). These books were all entries in the SPFBO in recent years, which means they're all fantasy, and they're all fresh and new, from independent authors like me. We're now all on a Discord server together, helping each other out, and the idea for a joint promotion comes from that new community.
I entered both Flames Over Frosthelm and The Outcast Crown into the SPFBO, which was the inspiration for the SPSFC described above and has a similar format. These books are a diverse look into that competition.
