Just dropped off some signed copies of #Blackbirch: The Ritual at @dymocksknoxcity all ready for tomorrow’s release!
So, what did we think of the cover for #Blackbirch: The Ritual? Book 3 will be out on the 17th for a *special launch price* for a limited time. All the details are at the link in my bio!

Today's new #blog post is the cover, title, release date, and pre-order links for #Blackbirch 3! It’s out August 17th (yep, in 2 days). Check everything out at the link in my bio 😊.
