The book is in the middle. It's called To Speak with the Stars and has a volcano goddess on the cover. A big blue dragon with dragonfly wings, a fluffy white goat, and the head of a small golden dragon surround the book. The text reads: It's release day! Dark high fantasy. Magma merfolk, ice dragons, and other cool races and creatures. The book cover is in the centre. Words are around it with arrows pointing at it: dark high fantasy; multi point of view; ice dragons and magma merfolk; romance without spice; telepathy; found family; disabled and neurodivergent rep; queer-normative world; magic gifted by the gods. Two elves are inside a golden frame in the centre. One is pale-skinned with a long dark braid. She clutches the forearm of a dark-skinned elf with black dreadlocks. The dark-skinned elf looks lovingly at her. The text reads, Vivid and immersive; humourous despite its dark themes; in order to rise, you must first fall; To Speak with the Stars. The book cover has a volcano goddess with dark skin with orange rivulets of magma in it. She holds a bright yellow sphere with images of two young elves in it. The background is black with golden constellations. The text reads, To Speak with the Stars. Link in bio!

An old western-style wanted poster with a sketch of a volcano goddess with long hair and slightly-pointed ears caressing the face of a faun with big curved horns and long wavy hair. Wanted: ARC (advance reader copy) readers. Reward: a dark high fantasy with a dash of romance. The book cover is in the centre. Words are around it with arrows pointing at it: dark high fantasy; multi point of view; ice dragons and magma merfolk; romance without spice; telepathy; found family; disabled and neurodivergent rep; queer-normative world; magic gifted by the gods. An illustration of a dragon with four wings like a dragonfly. A colour digital painting of the same dragon (just his head with blue scales and silver multifaceted eyes). A postcard image of a snowy mountain. Torn pieces of paper are arranged like a collage. On them, text: Have no fear, mortal. You are a friend of the gods and of my kin. I will show restraint and not consume you. Yet. Two elves. One is pale-skinned with a long dark braid with teal highlights. She clutches the forearm of a dark-skinned elf with black dreadlocks. The dark-skinned elf looks at her while she stares in awe at the fire magic he's creating in his open palms. The text reads: Underestimate me. That'll be fun. Quote by Rebel Circus.

Its tagline is In order to rise, you must first fall. The small golden dragon has a thought bubble because he can't speak out loud. 99 cents, he says. The big blue dragon says, You little rascal! That was my line! The book cover has a volcano goddess with dark skin with orange rivulets of magma in it. She holds a bright yellow sphere with images of two young elves in it.

A volcano goddess (with dark skin with orange molten rivulets flowing through it) looks into the eyes of a faun (with light skin, white wavy hair, long faun ears, and glowing golden horns). The background is a pattern of golden constellations and has two lineart drawings of crescent moons with flowers on them. Character art by @gagakumadraws.bsky.social.
