Hello lovely readers, I’m back with another celebratory post!

While this week’s all about celebrating Heart of Mist, it’s also about looking forward. So I’m whispering a few secrets about Book II in the series…

So here goes!

1. Book II starts right where we left off

Remember that somewhat-of-a-cliffhanger ending in Heart of Mist? Well, in Book II, we learn exactly what happened to our unlikely heroine.

None of this ‘6 months later’ crap.

We’re there right from the get-go.

2. We explore more of the Upper Realm

While Heart of Mist focused on the continent of Ellest, Book II sees us follow our heroes to the lands abroad.

Much of Book II is set in Battalon and Havennesse, and, dare I say it… Oremere.

I’ve had an absolute blast expanding the Upper Realm for this next chapter, and I can’t wait to hear what you guys think of these new settings!

3. We meet loads of new characters

As the world expands in Book II, so does the cast of characters. We’re introduced to a bunch of new faces in this next installment of The Oremere Chronicles.

I’ve already got my money on a handful of potential crowd favourites.

I’m trying to remain tightlipped about it all, but man… If you haven’t already, you guys are going to fall in love… There are some tip-top new players on the field in this book.

4. Secrets are revealed

If you’ve read Heart of Mist, you’ll know just how many secrets were simmering below the surface. Every one has one, and in Book II, these secrets are out!

Intrigue, betrayals and room for new secrets are all major factors in Book II.

5. There’s a hint about Book II’s cover on the Heart of Mist cover

I’m a massive fan of foreshadowing, and I just couldn’t help having a little fun with my designer with the cover elements for Heart of Mist.

On the cover of Heart of Mist, there’s a clue as to what might be featured on Book II’s cover.

That’s all I can say for now, but… I’d love to hear your guesses in the comments below 😉

6. Title reveal Clue for Book II…

With the title reveal for Book II just around the corner, I thought it’d be fun to publish a little teaser…

The title for the second book in The Oremere Chronicles will go a little something like this…
