YA book release

Keeper of the Bees has been released!

September 11, 2018 By Meg Kassel

One week ago today my second novel, Keeper of the Bees released in hardcover and ebook. I wrote this book because I fell in love with Rafette, the villain from Black Bird of the Gallows and wanted to tell the story of a Beekeeper. Rafette’s story concluded in Black Bird, so I began a new tale with new characters, told in alternating point of views.

As my two main characters, Dresden and Essie, grew in my mind and on the page, I fell for both of them just as hard as I had for Rafette. Also, I added a mystery element, which was more fun than I thought it would be, and gave a few more breadcrumbs regarding the origins of these creatures and the mythology surrounding them.

This story is near to my heart for a number of reasons. I hope you, dear readers, enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Available now: Amazon • B&N • BAM • Kobo • Indiebound

Cover reveal!

June 11, 2018 By Meg Kassel

It’s here! My shiny new cover for Keeper of the Bees, a companion to Black Bird of the Gallows. I’m so excited to share it with you. Inside info: this cover went through MANY versions. It has to pass inspection at both Macmillan and Barnes & Noble and it took a while for designers to come up with a design that worked for everyone. Personally, I LOVE this one and was so happy it was chosen. I saw a few of the others and this was my favorite. Authors, (unless they’re independently published) don’t usually get much say in their covers. Not everyone is happy with what they get! But I’ve been so fortunate with both of mine so far! You can pre-order it on Amazon or B&N or  Indiebound. Check out this baby in all its green beauty…

It’s a shiny new cover!

Haha, not yet. BUT…
We’re gearing up for the September 4, 2018 release of Keeper of the Bees. See the cover first on June 9, 2018 here, and with participating bloggers. I can say for a fact that this cover is GORGEOUS. Black Bird of the Gallow’s cover is beautiful and dark, but this one is so delicious, I can’t stop peeking at it. I can’t wait for you to see it.

Here’s a hint…there aren’t any crows on this cover. Instead, it features a certain type of honey-making insect that lives inside a certain cursed boy’s chest.
