Our July theme is . . . YOU WIN OR YOU DIE!
In a game like this, there are only two choices – win and live, or lose and die.
Our featured book this month is an adult fantasy debut! When the lost heir of a fallen country is discovered by the prince of the kingdom who destroyed her own, she must keep her true identity hidden and work alongside him in order to stay alive. We loved this immersive story full of political machinations, slowburn romance and evocative worldbuilding.
Our Illumicrate Exclusive edition is signed by the author and features:
- An exclusive cover
- Foil embossing on the hardback (by @chattynora)
- Digitally printed edges (by @chattynora)
- Endpaper artwork (by @chattynora)
Items this month are inspired by The Hunger Games, A Magic Steeped in Poison and The Final Strife! There is also a multifandom item, which we’re very excited for.
