Today is the day!

Book cover for Queen of Thorns by Joel C. Flanagan-Grannemann.
Across the top is a banner announcing "Book Five of Servants of the Moon and Sun" in a clean silvery white font.
Against a deep red background with ominous dark thorny trees and fog, an armored knight dressed all in black and wearing a silver helm and breastplate rides a black horse, which is also armored at the head and body. The knight holds a crossbow loaded with a bright silver bolt in his right hand. The book's title is placed under the mounted knight in large silver letters in a fantasy font with thorn serifs. The author's name is centered below that over two lines in a smaller clean silvery white font.

~Coming at you with another review~
The Not So Mundane Mysteries of Norman Melamourne. A fantasy murder mystery is the perfect thing to read right now. @gjterralwrites.bsky.social does a great job at atmosphere as we investigate the impossible.
