News and views about today's greatest debut fiction

About Us

Like many avid readers, James W. Powell has always been excited to “discover” new authors, but finding good debut novels when they first hit bookshelves always felt like random luck. After scouring the Internet for one consistent information about upcoming debuts that he might be interested in, he realized that there was no one central location that had the information he was looking for.

Knowing that if he was interested in information about recent or upcoming debut fiction, other readers out there were having the same problem. So in January 2012, he decided he’d have to do it himself, and just like that, The Debut Review was born.

The Debut Review is devoted to first time novelists and their books. It’s a showcase for new talent that features all the information necessary for book hounds to discover new voices to add to their reading lists.

By day, James is a professional editor. By night, he writes and edits comics. He’s been a part of several books, including Once Upon a Time Machine, Postcards: True Stories That Never Happened, and The Wicked West Two: Abomination and Other Tales. He lives in Colorado with his wife and son, and is currently at work on a number of comic-related projects.
