|  October 2021 (Cover art by Tony Mauro, Cover design by Rita Frangie) | | There's so much to share this newsletter, so I'll dive right in! Both the North American and International covers of Archangel's Light are now out, and I'm thrilled to share them in this newsletter - along with the blurb. If you'd like to get some behind-the-scenes info and read about what went into the making of the North American cover, check out this article at Collider. I love this book so much, and I am so grateful to the art teams at both Berkley and Gollancz, for giving it such extraordinary cover treatments. I've heard enough discussion since the cover reveals to know everyone has their own strong ideas of what this book will be (or should be). What I can tell you is that Archangel's Light is a book with a powerful, emotional, and extraordinary heart. I adored writing it and going on this journey with two unforgettable characters, and I can't wait for you to read it. ~ A big shout out to my German readers. Thanks to you, Sharine and Titus's story, "Engelssone" hit #4 on the Spiegel bestseller list!! Vielen dank das ihr Engelssonne liebt! ~ Also in this newsletter are details of multiple upcoming events (live and virtual) - and info on how you can get your hands on signed copies of Last Guard. ~ I also have information on upcoming German releases, an update to my reading diary, the link to an event recording, and pictures from a recent road trip in New Zealand's stunning South Island. Happy reading! p.s. If you'd like to read the previous newsletter, here's the link |  October 2021 (Cover design by Patrick Knowles) | | ARCHANGEL'S LIGHT October 2021 Nalini Singh returns to the world of the Guild Hunters for the most highly anticipated novel of the beloved series—a love story so epic it’s been half a millennia in the making… Illium and Aodhan. Aodhan and Illium. For centuries they’ve been inseparable: the best of friends, closer than brothers, companions of the heart. But that was before—before darkness befell Aodhan and shattered him, body, mind, and soul. Now, at long last, Aodhan is healing, but his new-found strength and independence may come at a devastating cost—his relationship with Illium. As they serve side by side in China, a territory yet marked by the evil of its former archangel, the secret it holds nightmarish beyond imagining, things come to an explosive decision point. Illium and Aodhan must either walk away from the relationship that has defined them—or step forward into a future that promises a bond infinitely precious in the life of an immortal…but that demands a terrifying vulnerability from two badly bruised hearts. Coming October 2021

der zweite Neuseeland-Thriller von Bestseller-Autorin Nalini Singh Was hätten die Leute denken sollen, als die bildschöne Nina Rai spurlos aus dem Haus ihres doppelt so alten Ehemannes verschwand – und mit ihr eine Viertelmillion Dollar? Der Fall wurde schnellstmöglich zu den Akten gelegt, schließlich war keine von Neuseelands reichsten und mächtigsten Familien aus der Nachbarschaft an einem Skandal interessiert.
Das ändert sich auch nicht, als Jahre später im schattigen Grün des nahen Waldes eine verstörende Entdeckung gemacht wird: Ninas Knochen, eingehüllt in scharlachrote Seide.
Einzig Ninas Sohn Aarav ist fest entschlossen, endlich die hässliche Wahrheit hinter der glitzernden Fassade seiner Nachbarn ans Licht zu bringen … Gekonnt mischt die internationale Bestseller-Autorin Nalini Singh Neuseelands schönste und schrecklichste Seiten zu einem atmosphärischen Thriller voller Geheimnisse.

Das geistige Netz der Medialen steht vor dem Kollaps und droht zu zerfallen. Nun schlägt die Stunde der Anker. Sie müssen das fragile Medialnet stabilisieren und sind die letzte Hoffnung auf Überleben. Daran gewohnt, aus dem Hintergrund zu agieren, finden sich Canto und Payal auf einmal an vorderster Front wieder. Zwei Kardinalmediale, aufgewachsen in Silentium und nach außen völlig gefühllos. Doch als sich ihre Blicke treffen, bröckelt ihre kalte Fassade, und zwischen ihnen wächst eine zarte Liebe. Onlinebuch: AppleBooks, Bücher.de, eBook.de, Kindle, Thalia

It was a really fun conversation, and the library did a fantastic job putting it all together. The replay is now available on Youtube: click this link to watch. |  ALT Text: Quote from Last Guard - "Don't thank me. Not for looking after you. You're mine to care for, mind to hold." | | Reading Diary I'm still on a mystery reading streak and really enjoyed my first book by Naomi Hirahara, "Murder on Bamboo Lane". I loved the vibrant L.A. setting, and the fact that Ellie Rush is a fresh-faced bicycle officer, someone just finding her way who's thrust into a situation she never expects. This book also has elements of friendship, family, and a hint of romance. I'm definitely looking forward to picking up the second Ellie Rush book! |  Golden alpine grasses against snow-capped mountains near Arthur's Pass, NZ. Each of those blades of grass was tipped with delicate frost. It was both breathtakingly cold and breathtakingly beautiful. | | Next Newsletter The next newsletter will be hitting your inbox on July 20. Take care and happy reading. ~Nalini | |
