Thanks so much to Philip Chase for sending me a copy of his beautiful new book. While Darkness Gathers takes place sixteen years after the conclusion of The Edan Trilogy.
The Edan Trilogy is one of my favorite epic fantasy series in recent years. I'm excited to dive back into this world! 💙📚

Mark Lawrence's new book is SO BEAUTIFUL!! 😍😍😍 (And I got a back-of-the-book quote! 🤩)
It was a Mark Lawrence book (Holy Sister) that inspired me to write my first-ever book review. I can't tell you how much it means to me to be quoted on one of his books. I never could have imagined...
