"This book tore my heart out and put it back together again and it was an honour"

A stunning endorsement from @theagwrites.bsky.social for @authortrmoore.bsky.social 's THE GODS MUST BURN.

Coming to a bookshop near you in February 2026!

Preorder: https://geni.us/godsmb
Against a dark green background with autumnal leaves and branches, a 3D hardback of THE GODS MUST BURN by T. R. Moore. Below, white text: “There are stories that stay with you forever and The Gods Must Burn is one of them. The mythology is so layered and rich, the romance is angsty and soaring and epic, and T.R. Moore’s prose is gorgeous and lyrical, yet unflinching—the result is a true masterpiece. This book tore my heart out and put it back together again and it was an honor.” — Thea Guanzon, New York Times and #1 international bestselling author The Hurricane Wars

I think this is now the most beautiful book I own. Yes, it’s Adrian’s text (as good as ever) and Anderida did amazing work here, from typography to binding, etc. but my lord, Ian McQue’s art goes f-ing hard.

The cover of The Gods Must Burn by T R Moore featuring a strange wolf like creature hiding among branches The Gods Must Burn T.R. Moore Presenting our lead title for Spring 2026 Out in hardback, eBook, and audiobook: 24 February 2026 US 26 February 2026 UK A disgraced war hero possessed by the Wolf God must earn the trust of the Forest God, and protect her from the soldiers he used to fight alongside, in this healing dark fantasy debut for fans of Godkiller and Princess Mononoke. War hero Basuin doesn't know what to believe in anymore. All Basuin knows is life as an army captain and the pain, loss, and disgrace it has brought him. Demoted and humiliated by his legion commander, he is led into the forest for one more mission: capture a god. But when his commander uses innocent wolf pups as bait, Basuin dies saving them. The Wolf God, impressed by his sacrifice, deifies Basuin to protect the forest and its beautiful, sharp-tongued god from the legion's deforestation. To the Forest God, Basuin is nothing more than one of the men sent to burn her forest down. Betrayed by humans too many times, she rejects him, working alone to protect the spirits of the forest as her home disappears around her. To save the god he is growing to love, Basuin must untangle the feelings between them. Otherwise, they'll burn together.
