I'm posting today instead of Monday because today happens to be 2.22.22 and I couldn't let such a beautifully aesthetic date go to waste so I decided to do a cover reveal today.
I'm sure you guys have been waiting some time for this particular reveal. You've only been waiting—what?—three years, for the sequel to A Certain Sort of Madness. But at long last we have a cover and a (hopeful) release date!
So, let's start scrolling to see them both...

It has been nearly a year since the events that put her mother in a coma. Since her grandfather and Dante were imprisoned in the Unrealm. Since she’s last stepped foot in Amar. Trying to put heartache and broken promises behind her, Alicia attempts for the first time in her existence to actually live a regular life with the help of her cousin Olivia who is determined to forget everything that ever happened in Amar. But as cracks begin appearing everywhere, showing glimpses into the other worlds, Alicia realizes that “normal” has always been helplessly out of her reach.
Marius is fighting to break free from his prison, and reality is tearing at the seams to try to hold him in. The only way to save the four realms is for Alicia to find a way to stop her grandfather once and for all. But how does one defeat an immortal? Alicia offers him a bargain. Play a game against her, winner takes all. The stakes are her future, her mother’s life, and the freedom of the boy she loved—and still possibly might. Only the most powerful mage in all Amar will walk away. But in order to win, Alicia must become like her grandfather and be willing to use her friends as pawns. People have betrayed her, but that’s just an occupational hazard, right? What goes around comes around doesn’t it? Anything is fair game when the fate of everything is involved.
In this twisted world trust, safety, and sanity are all just an illusion. And sometimes reality doesn’t deserve to be saved.
I'm hopefully optimistic that I'll be able to release this book on May 31st, but I cannot release it until after A Season of Subterfuge, Courtiers, and War Councils so it all depends on whether I can publish that one on April 21st like I have planned.
But as it stands, I'm aiming for a release on May 31st
I'm pretty excited. This is my first time wrapping up a series, so I'm certainly more than a little heartbroken to have to say goodbye to these characters once I finish this grand finale. But I'm also excited for the day that Alicia's story will be finally fully out there in the world.
