QUEEN OF FURY is Available Everywhere!

Yes, yes. I’m aware this was news last week, but I’ve been traveling for the holidays and then traveling for work, and I really haven’t had a moment other than to shoot off various social media posts. (Also, BlueSky is awesome. If you’re not already following me there, please do!)

Queen of Fury was written, mostly, in 2021, but then had a rather unconventional little trip afterward, wherein I didn’t think the story would ever see the light of day. When the series was acquired by Solaris Books in 2023, that meant that the book wouldn’t be out for another (nearly) two years. Which was fine. I had plenty of work to do on Queen of Mercy, and soon, all the Netherford books.

I’ve said it before, and I will say it again, this book forever changed me. Every book is special, of course, but something in the story of Hwyfar’s rage and Gawain’s redemption really shifted and healed a part of me. I suppose all my books do that, of course, but through so much of drafting this book it felt like I was just furiously taking notes as these two just showed me their story and their adventures. I remember most of the summer of 2021 mainlining Garmarna and Wardruna, just lost in the tale. And that certainly doesn’t happen with every book.

Readers have, amazingly, also fallen in love with these two. And that brings me such joy.

What is even cooler is the audiobook, which is performed by Lucy Rayner and Philip Battley. Hearing them bring each of these characters to life in such a beautiful way left me in tears multiple times. There may be nothing cooler in all my career than getting to hear my stories told back to me via the incredibly talented voice actors I’ve been lucky enough to work with.

Your local bookstore or Bookshop.org are always my preferred places for purchase, but you can find Queen of Fury just about everywhere!
