Hello, my lovely readers and writers! I hope you're enjoying the arrival of spring!

What better way to welcome the season of growth than with the cover to The Warden's Son book two, Blood of Vanris! I'm very excited to share with you another amazing book cover by fantasy artist Robert Crescenzio.

For the curious, here is the blurb and full print cover:

Kasiel’s healing injuries still trouble him, almost as much as the memories of what he did at the Hall in Katovan. Though he trains to become a better fighter and mind-crafter, a deeper understanding of the roles he is expected to fill makes it harder for him to come to terms with his place in Vanrian society.

Then the southern kingdoms emerge with a new method of fighting Vanrian mind-crafters. One that could change the course of the war. The situation leads to Kasiel being required to take a more active role in the conflict sooner than planned.

With his country’s growing need of mind-crafters like him, Kasiel learns what it really means to be at war, and what it feels like to lose. He is about to discover how far he’s willing to go to protect the ones he loves.

While you're waiting for Blood of Vanris to come out in April, here are some other opportunities to discover new books!

For something a little different, check out the Spring Into Steampunk and Gaslamp Book Fair, including my Clockwork Enterprises trilogy!

Lastly, take a look at the Epic Spring Sale 2024 for a collection of exciting reads, including my Silverblood Raven trilogy and Child of Vanris, The Warden's Son book one!

If you do try any of the books out and enjoy them, don't forget to leave a review. Authors live on reviews. They're like air (or maybe it was water). Very important. ;)

Hope you're having a great spring!

Happy reading!
