International book fairs play an important role in creating connections, bringing together the people and ideas that continue to shape the publishing industry. This year, LIBER Feria Internacional del Libro 2026 welcomed the global publishing community to Barcelona for three days of networking, professional exchange, business opportunities, and conversations that opened new paths for books and their creators.

Taking place from September 29 to October 1, 2026, at Fira Barcelona Gran Via, Hall 1, LIBER 2026 served as a meeting point for the Spanish-language book industry and an important bridge between Europe and Latin America. The 44th edition brought together publishers, authors, agents, distributors, booksellers, rights buyers, and other industry professionals, creating opportunities to connect, exchange ideas, explore new markets, and discover possibilities within the evolving world of publishing.
Among the titles represented by Citi of Books at this year’s international gathering is “Three Metal Pellets” by M.J. Simms-Maddox, Ph.D.. The book gives readers another opportunity to discover the author’s creative work and adds another distinctive title to the range of stories being brought into the LIBER community. Through its presence at the fair, the book can become part of conversations surrounding literature, publishing, and the ways authors can connect with readers across different markets.
M.J. Simms-Maddox is the author behind “Three Metal Pellets”, a series that blends political suspense with personal drama and international intrigue. Through this trilogy, Simms-Maddox crafts a world where ambition, relationships, and danger intertwine, allowing readers to follow a strong and multifaceted protagonist navigating both global events and deeply personal challenges.
What happens when a skilled public relations strategist suddenly finds herself at the center of a presidential campaign—while the dangers from her past begin closing in once again?
That question lies at the heart of “Three Metal Pellets” by M.J. Simms-Maddox, an engaging political thriller now being introduced to the global publishing community at the 2026 London Book Fair. Among the many books showcased at the event, this story stands out for its blend of suspense, political maneuvering, and emotional complexity. For readers browsing the fair’s displays, this book promises a story where ambition, loyalty, and survival collide in unexpected ways.
The novel returns to the life of Priscilla, a confident and capable public relations professional who has recently rebuilt her business in Columbus, Ohio. After the dramatic events of her earlier adventures in southern Africa, she is trying to reestablish her career and find work that truly matters. When she receives a mysterious handwritten invitation asking if she would consider leading the marketing campaign for an unknown presidential candidate, her world quickly shifts from quiet rebuilding to national political stakes.
At the same time, Priscilla reconnects with Carlton Elliott Bernhardt, a former lover whose complex life and unusual family bring their own set of complications. As their relationship rekindles, old enemies tied to Priscilla’s past begin to reappear—dangerous adversaries who threaten not only her safety but the future of the political campaign she is helping to shape. As tensions rise, Priscilla must navigate both political strategy and personal survival, proving that her strength goes far beyond her professional reputation.
This book elevates the trilogy’s themes of power, perseverance, and purpose, giving readers a final look at Priscilla as she embraces her potential not only as a PR expert but as a woman whose influence extends far beyond Ohio politics and her family’s expectations.
With its focus on international business, professional networking, and the expansion of Spanish-language publishing into European and Latin American markets, LIBER provides a setting where these connections can take shape.
