I have been given permission to reveal the upcoming cover of Bee Speaker, book 3 of the Dogs of War series, coming this June. Mad Max futures, Martian invasions, mad lizards, fungus witches and embattled monks, none of which are quite what they seem.

Just finished the second in the Tyrant Philosophers series. Utterly banging book!
@aptshadow.bsky.social at his fantastical best.

I really enjoyed the first one but this is superb and the brilliantly threaded comedy and satirical observations reminded me of Pratchett at his best.
