It's OATHBOUND day!
Some demons will devour you whole
Hi Lovely Reader,
Today is the day! OATHBOUND is here! This third book in the Legendborn Cycle is the book I didn’t expect to write and the exact book the series needed to propel Bree’s story forward. Thank you to EVERYONE for your enthusiasm, your fierce protectiveness of Bree, and for spreading the word of Legendborn. I hope you love this book. Buckle up, friends, we’re going on a wild ride.

Severed from the Legendborn. Oathbound to a monster.
Bree Matthews is alone. She exiled herself from the Legendborn Order, cut her ancestral connections, and turned away from the friends who can’t understand the impossible cost of her powers. This is the only way to keep herself—and those she loves—safe.
But Bree’s decision has come with a terrible price: an unbreakable bargain with the Shadow King himself, a shapeshifter who can move between humanity, the demon underworld, and the Legendborn secret society. In exchange for training to wield her unprecedented abilities, Bree has put her future in the Shadow King’s hands—and unwittingly bound herself to do his bidding as his new protégé.
Meanwhile, the other Scions must face war while their Round Table is fractured, leaderless, and missing its Kingsmage, as Selwyn has also disappeared. When Nick invokes an ancient law that requires the High Council of Regents to grant him an audience, the Order’s Merlins imprison him. No one knows what he will demand of the Regents...or what secrets he has kept hidden from the Table.
As a string of mysterious kidnappings escalates and Merlins are found dead, it becomes clear that no matter how hard Bree runs from who she is, the past will always find her.

What I did last night
I celebrated pub day early last night with a marathon of quick virtual visits to just some of the incredible bookstores throwing midnight release parties across the country!

Three hours, ten bookstores, and a WHOLE lot of eager, happy, gorgeous readers to thank for their support of Bree and this series. I saw real life swords, on-site tattoo artists, purple mood lighting, trivia, and so many joyful faces! These midnight release parties were reader and bookstore-driven and seeing your enthusiasm as we counted down the hours and minutes to Oathbound’s release was the perfect way to celebrate Bree’s return.
Where I’ll be this week
I can’t wait to see you at the Oathbound tour stops this week! There are a few stops with tickets left (Houston and Atlanta!) if you want to join in on the fun! And if you already have a seat and missed the news this week, tour attendees at each stop will receive a special Oathbound Bree overlay illustrated by the magically talented @Mageofspace__. This semi-transparent vellum print artwork is designed to fit over a page of your choice in the hardback edition of Oathbound. While supplies last!

Happy reading!
Tracy
