I wanted to share these Endpapers I got to do for the Broken Binding's special edition of Daughter of Crows! I had so much fun with these - I always love doing darker illustrations 🥰 AD: Petrik Leo

FIrst Endpaper Illustration for Daughter of Crows. Rue is waking up in a pit filled with slain villagers and mercenaries with blood on her hands and head. There's a Crow sitting on a broken spear in the foreground and rays of light breaking through the clouds

Second Endpaper for Daughter of Crows. Rue is pulling herself up from the floor of a ruined Crypt. There is a woman emerging from a coffin standing ahead of her in tattered clothes.

Now I know why I'm on the nautical archeology starter pack. I had thought it was because of my extensive knowledge of shipwrecks ... but no...

It's a pity that the Locked Library edition is sold out. Look how nice it is!

Exciting to see these new covers for Prince of Thorns and King of Thorns from my French publishers. Art from Mikael Bourgouin replacing the original (excellent) work by Jason Chan which has served for nearly 15 years.

Very often "pacing" in books is simply used by people to describe the rate of delivery of things that interest them. Since readers' interests vary wildly, two people can have opposite views about the pace of the same book.

Just get it on the page. Pacing isn't one thing, so it's impossible to offer simple advice on. If it feels good to you, that's probably fine.

Hungarians! I've just signed a bunch of my books in the Libri at Mammut shopping centre, Budapest, and more at the Libri by Nyugati train station! Go grab one 😊 Some had black pages so I signed a page earlier.

This was a really interesting read. As someone who enjoyed these books I was sad to hear how difficult a time the author had while trying to complete the trilogy.
