A notable 2018 fantasy novel was 'The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter' by Theodora Goss. It brings together characters from classic Victorian - era horror and science - fiction stories, like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde's daughter.

It's part of her Wayfarers series and focuses on a different aspect of the universe she's created, with a more community - centered story.
