The audiobook is also out today and narrated by Tim Gerard Reynolds. So excited to finally have this out.

I've also added a brand new section to the website where you can check out the magick system within the book, but do be warned of SPOILERS. In any case, check out the 5-chapter sample too, if you fancy a free read ;)

Your cover art is completely awesome, do you illustrate it yourself?

Sorry for the late reply Claire. Thank you very much :)
