A photo collage for Veil Us in Gold. In the center is the cover of the book picture of book which has a dark blue background with marbled texture.

Center image is golden line-art of a Greek laurel wreath. Beside it are two opposite facing (horizontal) armor bracers with ivy design inside. Text (from top to bottom) reads: Book 1 of Sins of the Divine Veil Us in Gold Blessed Be They Who Kill Gods Shepard DiStasio Around it are tropes: non-binary disabled MC, ancient languages and cultures, corruption arc and morally grey characters, I support women’s rights and wrongs, dark political adventure fantasy, found family heist, t4t relationships, queer platonic groupchat, chronic illness as a magic system. At the bottom, text reads “for trans rights readathon!!”
