I am SO excited. THE VOID DRAGON is my favourite thing I've ever written. It contains everything I love about fantasy: magic, dragons, court politics, friends turned to rivals, a MAGIC DUEL, betrayal, love won, and love lost. I am SO EXCITED to share it with the world.
GUYS! The sequel to THE OUTCAST MAGE is coming out THIS YEAR!
Book 2 of The Shattered Lands is going to be called THE VOID DRAGON, and despite everything IS COMING OUT THIS YEAR.
THE VOID DRAGON will be out October 2026 and you can PRE-ORDER NOW. Come on an adventure with me!

My husband is my social media manager 😅 But look! Here I am talking about my favourite subject, those beautiful disastrous wizard mentors. And Dungeon Crawler Carl, apparently, which I completely forgot about 😂
PRINCESS DONUT IS A DISASTER WIZARD. I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL.
What Omar has failed to include is that when I did eventually steal a car, I didn’t control it well and immediately ran over a person. So from zero crime to on the run for murder just like that. It’s a slippery slope…
Was about to do a promo post for @annabelcwrites.bsky.social , @gen-dimova.bsky.social , and @toribovalino.bsky.social ‘s event today, then I realised it was sold out…

Ah thank you! I don’t know if I can share the title yet, but I can promise there are more dragons and a lot of exploring of the world outside Amoria!
Thank you for reading! 🧡 And that’s so nice to hear - I was definitely inspired by Istanbul as a city of East meets West!
A dark figure wearing a loose flowing robe standing on top of a sand dune with further dunes stretching into the distance. A large red disc that graduates to yellow surrounded by a circle of Arabic designs and an outer circle of glyphs. The title of the book is in black over the red disc.
Book 18 of 2025
The Outcast Mage by @annabelcwrites.bsky.social
Epic fantasy and perfect for fans of Trudi Canavan and S A Chakraborty. It has been very apt reading this while in Istanbul as this is also a land straddling East and West. Very much looking forward to the next instalment.
