Cover for On Demon Wrangling and Interpersonal Relationships Between Weary Immortals by Rebecca Crunden; purple background with a cat and flowers.
Demelza, a world-weary witch, and Uliana, an even more exhausted vampyre, work together to send wayward demons, ghosts and otherworldly creatures back to where they came from. But some jobs are more difficult than others.

The smile on my face reading this!
(The Art of Legend, pg 144 of the HC)
Ooo, so true! I can relate!
QOTD: When you’re buying a new physical book, do you reach for the paperback (PB) or hardcover (HC)?
I love how HC’s sit and look on my shelf, but generally prefer the reading experience of a PB (primarily where the novel is already weighty given its page count).
This map is so pretty!
It’s from The Art of Legend. I’m having a lot of fun back in the world with these characters. Only 60 pages in - hoping to get some reading time this weekend
"A woman needed to be ruthless to triumph in a world ruled by men. Duchess Sunri was, at the same time, the best and worst role model for little murderous girls everywhere." (pg 10)
Loved The Art of Prophecy and The Art of Destiny. Bring on book 3!
Wesley Chu has given us such a great cast of characters - Taishi and Qisami being personal favourites
Had already picked up a 700-pager, so had to resist King Sorrow. Next time! 📚
absolutely incredible!
Been excited for this one! Her previous book, Once There Were Wolves, is one of my fav's outside of SFF. 100 pages into Wild Dark Shore by Charlotte McConaghy and it's brilliant. Suspenseful, emotive, beautiful. Impeccable character work. Lovely prose
@bookspotlight.bsky.social - Rebecca, love seeing you quoted by @danielgreene.bsky.social today on YouTube!
Such an important video! Cheers, Daniel. I'm with you
Congrat's on the new release, @lizdelton.bsky.social!
Have you checked out @thefoolstale.bsky.social's huge SFF Book Haul🐉? YouTube link below 🔗
So many beautiful books 📚- including this one (although I'm a tad biased)
P.S., And I’ll never get over the custom font Anderson did for the title of the novel. The cover, the spine and this title page all feature a different arrangement of it!
I can’t thank Anderson Magalhães enough for the new title page for the signed and numbered edition of Perils of the Past—available from @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social.
Rare gems with a unique property are an important part of the story. It’s great to have gems featured on this stunning design.
🎉 @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social, @thefoolstale.bsky.social and I are running a HUGE giveaway on Insta 🎉
If you’re there too, come celebrate the signed and numbered editions of Perils of the Past (by me) and Tomb of Tomes by Andrew Watson. Get in the running to win them both, plus a bonus art card!
I feel I need some 'sandcastle therapy' after finishing this one. Oh, it's incredible, don't get me wrong. But it's darker than I'd expected.
From the world-building to the prose, from the mysteries to the epic scale, this is one hell of a book. Bring on book 3!
THE LORD OF THE EMPTY MIRROR, the final step on the Obsidian Path is available for pre-order!
