I’m looking for a small group of readers to receive an Advance Reader Copy (ARC) of my upcoming grimdark fantasy novel, Wine and Smoke, ahead of its October 7th release.
About the book: Each soul must carve its path through blood and smoke. That’s the world our king has wrought. When Kayn’s sanctuary is attacked, he fails to save those he loves. With his friend’s dying breath, he swears to find the one companion still missing. To keep that vow, he must step into the very world he once dreaded. And become strong enough to survive it. His path collides with the noble houses, where power is hoarded, and blood is currency. There, Malina, heir to one such house, would rather lose herself in books and wine than courtly games. But when an attempt on her life shatters her illusions, she’s forced to reach for power—or be consumed by it. Whoever seeks power must bleed. Can Kayn and Malina escape this fate, or will they lose themselves in their pursuit? A cruel story in an unforgiving world. Every choice is hard. Every deed carries a weight of moral ambiguity.
Details:
Genre: Grimdark / Dark Fantasy
Length: ~80,000 words
Formats: EPUB / PDF / MOBI
Request: Read before release and post an honest review on Goodreads and/or Amazon when it goes live
Would you be interested in exchanging reviews? If so, please message me directly (assuming it is allowed by group rules), as I may lose track of this thread and miss your response.
