About the product

Featured book: The Last Hour Between Worlds by Melissa Caruso

Get your hands on an Illumicrate full box featuring The Last Hour Between Worlds by Melissa Caruso.

This is a single purchase of one of our past full boxes and will not subscribe you to any of our subscription products.

Temporal hands pass silently over the clock face, counting down to the moment time runs out.

Our November 2024 Illumicrate book is an adult fantasy! A new mother has a few hours to herself at the annual year-turning ball, but then attendees start turning up dead. Dragged into a mystery and the lure of her troublesome nemesis, she starts investigating. At the heart of it all seems to be an odd clock which distorts reality, and as it counts down she must solve the enigma before disaster strikes in the final hour.

Our Illumicrate Exclusive edition is a Royal hardback and features:

  • An exclusive cover (from the publisher)
  • Full colour printing and foil on the hardback (by @zookie_art)
  • Digitally printed edges (by @perrycuffdesigns)
  • Illustrated endpapers (by @marceline2174); different front and back
  • Bound-in author letter
  • Signed by the author

If you love dimensions within dimensions, time loops and sapphic workplace nemeses, we think you’ll enjoy this one!

Fandoms this month include Crownchasers, The Principle of Moments and This Is How You Lose the Time War! Our next book pot will be in this box, and there will also be a useful item designed by @forensicsandflowers.

The book at a glance:

  • Adult fantasy, first in a series
  • Featuring: exclusive cover; full colour printing and foil on the hardback; digitally printed edges; illustrated endpapers; author letter; signed by the author.

Our FAQs

All FAQs

  • Will you be restocking any of your special edition boxes?

    All our Illumicrate Editions, Collections and Archives boxes are sold as one-off boxes, which means once they're sold out they won't be restocked in the future. 

    While we don't regularly sell individual items, very occasionally we do have sales of full boxes or individual items we have left over after replacements and damages. These sales are usually announced on our social media so keep your eyes peeled!

    Sometimes we have reprinted book sets such as the Roots of Chaos set, however it is very rare that we do this. We also cannot guarantee any reprinted sets will be signed. As with all of our products, any reprints will be announced on social media and the news section of our website.

  • Do you ship to my country and how much is it?

    Yes, we can ship to almost every country! There are a few exceptions, currently, we cannot ship to: Belarus, the Canary Islands, China, El Salvador, Guadalupe, Haiti, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Ukraine. This is because our shipping company is unable to deliver in these countries, sorry!
