I’m updating the covers for all of the Ravensmuir books, and next up are the Jewels of Kinfairlie. The new editions will be available in ebook, trade paperback and jacketed hardcover from retailers in February 2027. You can order copies early from me. I was planning to launch these at Kickstarter, but will offer them through my online store instead.

Let’s have a look:

These books are so pretty! As with the current editions of the Jewels, the Ballad of Rosamunde with be available in ebook on its own, and included in the print editions of The Snow White Bride.

As with the new editions of Blood Brothers, the Bride Quest and the Champions of St. Euphemia, we have new illustrations of the couples for each title. The illustration is on the case laminate of the hardcover, and it’s duplexed (printed on the inside) of the cover for the trade paperback.

Here’s the illustration for The Beauty Bride:

Each print book has a chapter background which coordinates with the cover. Here’s a screenshot of the one for The Beauty Bride:

And here’s The Rose Red Bride, first the new illustration, then the chapter background.

And finally for The Snow White Bride:

Once again, these books are really pretty! I’ve ordered samples to show you, and will make a video when they arrive.

I’ve set up pre-orders in my online store for the ebooks of the new editions, which will ship automatically on August 1. You can see them here:

For the print editions, you have two choices. You can order any of the books individually and get your copy signed. If you order a set of three hardcovers at once, the store will offer free shipping for US and CA addresses, and I’ll order them in July.

Or you can order a complete set of all three to be drop-shipped to you if you live in Canada or the US. This saves you some money as well as getting the books to you early. I’ll also send you a signed bookplate for each book and a bookmark featuring the new covers. The shipping is free for US and CA addresses. I’ll leave the pre-order open until July 1, then I’ll order the books and this bundle will vanish.

This is my fake Kickstarter. 🙂 The idea is that as more people order, I’ll be able to add more goodies. I’d like to do postcards with the new illustrations, but we’ll need 15 backers for that to happen. Fingers crossed!

I’ve shown you the new covers for the Rogues of Ravensmuir series, but now I (finally) made a video, too.
