Today, I’m so excited to be sharing the cover for an adult fantasy by one of my writing besties, Charlie N. Holmberg! I’m absolutely in love with this cover, y’all.
You may be familiar with Charlie’s other books, such as her bestselling The Paper Magician series, and if you’re not—then go read them! They’re totally charming.
And now, without further adieu… here’s the GORGEOUS cover for:
Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet
The peculiar tale of an enchanted baker who creates fairy tales’ darkest and most magical confections…
About the book
Maire is a baker with an extraordinary gift: she can infuse her treats with emotions and abilities, which are then passed on to those who eat them. She doesn’t know why she can do this and remembers nothing of who she is or where she came from.
When marauders raid her town, Maire is captured and sold to the eccentric Allemas, who enslaves her and demands that she produce sinister confections, including a witch’s gingerbread cottage, a living cookie boy, and size-altering cakes.
During her captivity, Maire is visited by Fyel, a ghostly being who is reluctant to reveal his connection to her. The more often they meet, the more her memories return, and she begins to piece together who and what she really is—as well as past mistakes that yield cosmic consequences.
From the author of the Paper Magician series comes a haunting and otherworldly tale of folly and consequence, forgiveness and redemption.
Magic Bitter, Magic Sweet is available for preorder on Amazon and B&N. Ebook, audiobook, and paperback release from 47North June 28th!
You can also preview the novel on Goodreads.
