In 2025, we’ll have my first audio book (Pastiche), and five novels! You can read more about my plans for 2025 in a blog post, including what’s going on on the Patreon this year.
Keep an eye on my newsletter for the latest info! You can find additional scenes and short works about characters in some of my books on my newsletter. I’ll update this page of future books as soon as books have titles and a bit of a summary.
Pastiche audio book
I’m excited to share my first audio book, Pastiche, with wonderful narration done by Maria Nicola Johnson. This should be out to Kickstarter backers by the end of January if all goes well, and I’ll be making it available for purchase in a range of places after that.
Weaving Hope
Out on February 7th (pre-order Weaving Hope now!)
In Weaving Hope, it’s 1927 and Jeremy has recently inherited a manor house. He – a diligent clerk in the Ministry – has no idea what to do with a manor house. He can, at least, hire someone to evaluate the house’s tapestries. When Eda visits to evaluate and begin some restoration work, they both become fascinated with the tapestries, a family secret, and each other.
Grown Wise
Out on May 2nd (pre-order Grown Wise now!)
Ursula Fortier’s romance in 1947 and the beginning of the Liminal Mysteries series of post-war romances. Ursula has so many plans. She’s made good progress on several: her apprenticeship in Incantation magic is going well, she has been named Heir to her Uncle Garin. But there’s so much more she wants and needs to do. The land magic of Albion desperately needs help, and she knows that there are people who can help.
Jim, recently returned from time overseas after the Second World War, is trying to figure out what his life looks now. He wants to apprentice, to learn more about everything he studied at Snap, but it’s hard to find a place. And now he’s home in Sussex, he doesn’t want to live elsewhere, on other land. When Ursula sweeps him up in her plans, he doesn’t know what to make of her, but he’s willing to listen.
(Or, as I have been describing this one: “Ursula is a terrifying delight.”)
Harmonic Pleasure
Out on August 8th
In 1928, Farran Michaels is nearly finished with his apprenticeship at Orumlu, one of Albion’s finest auction houses. When he takes on an assignment that brings him to London to work with the much larger houses there, he’s approached for help with a different problem.
Vega is a singer at The Crystal Cave, London’s best and brightest magical night club. But her family needs her help to find a magical object, lost in London for centuries, that appears to be active again. Farran has skills that she could use – and she finds him more interesting the longer they talk and work together. Especially once she figures out what he already knows about her family. Sixth book in the Mysterious Arts series.
Claiming the Tower
Out on September 19th
The first of a planned duology (with a follow-up novella) about Hereswith Rowan (seen later in her life as Head of the Council in the Mysterious Fields trilogy). This novel takes place in 1854, as Hereswith makes the decision to Challenge for the Council and burn parts of her life to the ground to make something better as her conversations with Bess at The Field (the Horse House club) blossom from friendship into that changes both their lives for the better.
Edmund’s book
Out on November 7th
Edmund Carillon is eternally aware of what it means to be his father’s son. And his mother’s. Now in his second year up at Oxford, reading Classics and apprenticing with his Uncle Alexander in Ritual and Naming magic, he already has a busy and complicated life. When he and a female student in his year independently stumble across a puzzle, neither of them can let it alone.
Pen has no reason to trust Edmund – and several reasons not to. No one with his background will respect, never mind understand, what she learned during the war. Not that she can talk about it, anyway. Second book in the Liminal Mysteries series.
