We are proud to announce that Rowan Wolf is returning to Alex Parker Publishing with her second novel—and this time, she’s taking readers somewhere far more twisted.
A bold departure from her epic fantasy debut Hanged by Fate, this upcoming work is a genre-bending fusion of horror, dark fantasy, and psychological thriller, showcasing Rowan’s extraordinary range as a storyteller. The result is a haunting, immersive journey through grief, madness, and otherworldly terror.
Elyse spends her days in a therapist’s office, grieving the loss of her husband—and the part of herself that died with him. Once an artist, she can no longer bring herself to paint, her creativity drained by sorrow and something far darker. When night falls, she is drawn into another world. One where shadows stretch too far, the sky bruises black, and monsters that were once men feast on the remnants of humanity.
The line between here and there is thinning. The terror follows her, lingering beneath her skin, creeping into every corner of her mind. As the worlds begin to collide, Elyse must determine what is real and what is illusion. Because if she can’t, the darkness won’t just take her—it will consume everything.
In this stunning new novel, Rowan Wolf trades swords and prophecy for shadows and dread, weaving a story that is as intimate as it is terrifying. Her sharp prose and unflinching emotional depth make this novel a standout in the realm of literary horror and dark fantasy.
We are beyond excited to work with Rowan again and to bring readers a story that lingers long after the final page. More details on title, release date, and cover reveal coming soon.
