(4 novels, 1 novella, and 1 short story were published this year and 4 novels were published prior to this year)
1. The Girl in the Moon by Terry Goodkind [2018]
2. The Hard Bounce by Todd Robinson
3. The Harvest by John Leahy [2018]
4. Hellraiser: The Toll by Mark Alan Miller [2018 Short Story]

9. The Spy Who Came for Christmas by David Morrell

and The Lion's Game (my favorite non-2018 book of the year)
