This is fun! (Book 2 is out in one week, and signed/personalized copies are available here: https://jamesrileyauthor.com/tour-dates-events)

Just in case you want to preorder the third book, Barnes and Noble has a 25% off preorders sale going on for the next day or two!

Just in case you missed it, here's the cover to The Dragon's Apprentice: Destroyer of Magic (Book 3 in the series) that comes out next November! Who could that boy be? And that five-headed dragon?! (The description of this book spoils some of the ending to book 2, so wait to read about it until you've finished Revenants Return, just in case!)

Also, I think I hinted at this already, but my first graphic novel will be coming out in 2027 with the amazing artist Jen Lynch! I've wanted to do a graphic novel for SO many years, so this is such a dream come true. (And for those who wanted something fantasy, while this one isn't fiction, I'd love to do more that are, so hopefully there will be more after this one!)

So it looks like THE DRAGON'S APPRENTICE Book 2's sprayed edges are out, and look so cool! I love how these are all going to look together! (Remember, these are only on the paperback, not the hardcover). Preorders are really important, so if you want one, you can put in an order at a bunch of stores here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/748783/revenants-return-by-james-riley/

Well that was quick. Here's the cover to book two, by Cecille Carre! No spoilers, but I'm guessing Ciara and this Aiden guy aren't going to be friends...oh, and if Revenants are returning, that seems like a bad thing? You can preorder it here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/748783/revenants-return-by-james-riley/

Made something for a bookstore chain, and loved my cat's performance in it so much I thought I'd share it with everyone! (ignore my face being on fire, that was just poor lighting :)

And we finally get a mention of our hero, Ciara! It's not all about the dragon, after all... just most of it.

Rude.

That DOES sound like an odd thing for a Bianca to say. Hmm.

Looks like we're at that point where I start posting book quotes ...
