#CoverReveal ‘Cursed Under London’ by Gabby Hutchinson Crouch

Hello!
After a hellish January and even more of the same in February, books and other worldliness are the only things tethering me to an increasingly shaky reality, how ironic is that?

And books, and their loveliness, just keep on giving, here is the cover reveal for a fantastic forthcoming novel, ‘Cursed Under London’ by Gabby Hutchinson Crouch

Published by Farrago on 4th July, in e-book and glorious hardcover, pre-orders are availble, indeed, encouraged, here

So what is this all about, this first in the Cursed series then?

Well… it’s just about this…

The year is 1599. Fang, a grumpy, heartbroken traveller from the Ming Empire,
awakes from death to discover he’s not quite human any more. Nor is he a
zombie, vampire, werewolf or any of the other supernatural beings who roam
the segregated cities of Upper London and its dragon-ruled underground
counterpart, Deep London.
He stumbles upon Lazare de Quitte-Beuffe, a people-pleasing popinjay of an
actor afflicted with the same strange mysterious curse, which means neither
of them can die. Thrown together by immortality, the two strangers set out to
reverse the spell, traversing the dangers of Deep London and encountering
vampires, ghouls, ogres, poets, púca, magical talking swans and the zombie of
Christopher Marlowe, all the while trying to ignore the intense connection
between them.
As they are drawn further into the shadowy world of Deep London, they
unearth a dangerous plot which they appear to be right in the middle of.
Needing to reverse the spell and get on with being dead, the worst thing they
could do, right now, would be to fall in love…

Sounds good , doesn’t it?

And the cover?

Well, glad that you asked…

Ta-DAH!!!
