The way @heavenlyystar.bsky.social continues to blow me away with his talent
voicesofvalhoon.bsky.social Lilly Lockwood 🔥SoBB is out NOW!🔔 @voicesofvalhoon.bsky.social · Jul 7
I would be remiss not to share the full spread for SoBB because look at that amazing stained glass Maelstrom that Yune made for it!!
(Also this blurb is subject to change, I don't know what I'm doing when it comes to writing blurbs)
The full spread cover for Songs of Broken Bells by Lilly Lockwood. On the left is the back cover that features a stained glass interpretation of the Maelstrom, a swirl of water and clouds. The side have strings of cracked bells and in the bottom left corner are two unlit candles. The blurb reads: Líadan’s magic has been kept hidden, tamped down by an emotion suppressing potion. But one can only hide from their fate for so long. When a chance encounter in the forest reawakens her magic, a hungry flame intent on destroying everything in its path, the life she has cultivated within the Amstelvoort is uprooted. Vasil, Líadan’s best friend and the one sworn to end her life should her magic reawaken, breaks his pact and vows to keep her safe, even if it means turning against his own people. Spurred by a timely letter, they travel to a nearby village to meet with Minno af Friegha, a devotee of the saint of truth, and Aila, the supposed daughter of the god of entropy, in the hopes that they can find a way to get Líadan’s unpredictable magic in check—or better yet, extinguish it altogether. Things do not go to plan, however, as things are often wont to do. The four unlikely allies are thrown into a race against time as Líadan’s flame grows hungrier and the dark forces responsible for her creation draw nearer. On the right is the front cover. It features the four main characters arranged in a diamond formation, a stained glass design at the top with a sun on one side and shadows on the other, and a string of cracked bells on the sides.

Follow a fellowship of sapphic knights as they’re seduced by witches, queens, goddesses—and each other—in a dark, lush fantasy inspired by Arthurian legend.

For Pride month, I'm making all 3 of my high heat lesbian knight books PWYW! Get them free, tip, do as you please.

Creatives, stop explaining yourself for taking breaks, logging off, making what you want, fangirling over your favorite fandom, drawing the same characters over and over, drawing what you want, learning what you want, doing whatever the heck you want
