I’ve received a lot of messages over the past few months asking about a Broken Binding special edition of The Blackfire Blade – thanks everyone for your interest! – and I’m very pleased to say that yes, there definitely is a special edition, and that early access will be opening on Thursday 2nd October at 1pm BST. See the Broken Binding’s announcement for full details, but here’s the key takeaways:
If you’ve purchased our edition of The Silverblood Promise, early access emails will be sent out on Thursday 2nd October around 1pm BST.
For those who purchased book one secondhand, please drop us an email in October, about second access.
Copies are priced at £27 + P&P. We aim to ship these out in November.
My understanding is that any copies left over following the second period of access will go on general sale at a later date – please keep an eye on the Broken Binding’s website and social channels for updates.
This is going to be a beautiful special edition, not least because of the superb illustrations by Jeff Brown. I mean, look at them. Just look.

I’m thrilled with how these illustrations have turned out – huge thanks to Jeff and also to Petrik Leo for overseeing the whole process.
The Blackfire Blade – both special edition and standard editions – publishes on 4th November (North America) and 6th November (UK). Pre-order links are on my website.
Some doors should not be opened . . .
