I hope everyone made it through the worst of the cold. We’ll have lots of good news and releases this coming week to help lift spirits!
First bit of happy: against all odds, Subterranean Press has softened its policy before the might of the Horde and is republishing the Innkeeper Chronicles, Volume One.
UPDATE: This has SOLD OUT now, in less than 24 hours!

This is not something that usually happens, once the stock is exhausted the books are never reissued. But it is something that happens to us. Because Horde power, that’s why!
This is the preorder link and it will go live tomorrow, January 26, at 12:00 PM EST.
To clarify: the link is not broken. It doesn’t lead to anything yet, because it’s not yet 12 pm on January 26. I know your ways hehe!
Subterranean’s reissue is the omnibus of the first 3 novels in the Innkeeper Chronicles series (so Clean Sweep, Sweep in Peace and One Fell Sweep) and it’s a BIG boy.

Over 760 pages of hardback goodness, signed by Ilona and Gordon, with a full colour wrap-around dust jacket, plus the familiar and beloved illustrations by Doris Mantair in both full-colour and black& white inside. The books are already with the printers and should ship out in a couple of months if all goes well.
Secondly, Ilona and Gordon hosted Jessie Mihalik yesterday to celebrate the release of her new romantasy, Silver & Blood, which will drop on Tuesday and is available from all major retailers, in epub, paperback and audio format (and gorgina hardback in the UK. Honestly, we’ve been rocking it lately over here with the pretty editions, yay us.)
We spited the cold and talked about the price of magic, the author–reader contract, what’s new in the Hidden Legacy world and most of all about Jessie’s new Avon-published duology, which is a Beauty and the Beast retelling with a smitten male protagonist, immersive world, and all the hot and dark twists for us to discover!
As promised, you can watch the Zoom recording below or catch it on YouTube via the Mod account.
PS: Edgar de Bruijn, if you’re reading this, the B.A. Bookish Boutique are trying to contact you about your Ilona Andrews merch order, please check your emails.



Makes me cry this is $145 before shipping for Australians 🙁 i can’t afford that /cry
Got my volume 1! *happy dance*
Just finished reading the extended preview of Maggie. It is brilliant. End of March can’t be here soon enough. And Dear Universe some calm and peace and care….
Thank you for giving us this book Ilona and Gordon – it helps to take a step back from our daily lives into a fictional world where grittiness and decency coexist.
It is already sold out again?! I should have looked yesterday. Any chance they’ll increase the print run?
Same! It’s tragic but also a good thing
I’m guessing there will be another post about the Maggie teaser. One, thank you it was a fun read. Two, I know it’s not really a cliffhanger because of her name, but really leaving us like that.
Yes, there will be a post and yes, that was ebil! mwahahah!
Is it gone already? The pre order button is grayed out for me ;-; nooooo
Looks like it sold out in under 24 hours, yes
I have the The Innkeeper Chronicles Limited Edition from Subterranean from 2017. Is this the same?
Yes 🙂
Thank you!
Oh no – I was away from internet this weekend and they’re all gone! *sobs* Is there any way they’ll do more than 750? I was always checking eBay for Vol. I and it was so expensive there.
A question for Subterranean 🙂
I emailed Subterranean Press this morning. Asking is it was my computer or if link was bad. It would not allow order. I have been off line until this morning due to storm issues. Maybe the horde bought all??
I tried as well. I think they sold out fast
I’m getting married, so basically we’re broke until that’s paid for and done, otherwise I’d be all over this. I was hoping they would change their minds. Oh well, not meant to be. ENJOY EVERYONE!
Congratulations! I wish you a life of happiness!
Congratulations on the marriage. I read my Maggie preview so fast this morning. I can’t wait until the full book is available. It is amazing.
Ninja hobbits?!?! **snort**
No! I missed the preorder 😭😭😭
I didn’t get this email until the 27th and it was already sold out!😭
It’s already sold out!?
I was fortunate enough to go to a signing in Austin a few years ago and luckily saw Gordon in the parking lot. He graciously gave me a copy of Innkeeper 1, which I treasure. And, I did break down and buy the Arcane version of Nevada’s trilogy, because I really wanted a hardcover version of Burn for Me.
I missed the preorder too?!? Ughhh
Hello, I keep getting a 404 error message of the subterranean link for pre order of the Innkeeper Chronicles? Help?
It sold out in less than 24 hours, I’m afraid. It was gone by Monday.
