Happy Halloween Rebel Readers!
This week on the Rebel Reads Podcast, we journey into the dark and alluring world of In The Shadows, the first installment in a powerful new fantasy romance series from breakout author L.B. August.
Once a nameless survivor, Lilith Clarke was meant to die at the hands of the vicious King Oren — yet fate had other plans. Now crowned Queen of Umbra and bound to the ruthless King Asher, she rules from the shadows while battling the darkness closing in around her.
Set against a backdrop of political intrigue, ancient magic, and desire that defies destiny, In The Shadows delivers everything fantasy romance readers crave:
Forbidden love
Enemies-to-lovers tension
A brutal but magnetic antihero
High-stakes rebellion
A queen discovering her true power
Fated-mates destiny
Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing, The Cruel Prince, and A Court of Thorns and Roses, LB August’s debut pulls us into a realm where loyalty is a weapon, magic has a price, and darkness is irresistible.
LB and I had such a fun and thought-provoking conversation, from the art of writing morally gray characters, to hosting The Unhinged Bookish Thoughts Podcast with her bestie and building a thriving fantasy community. It’s an inspiring conversation about stepping into your power, embracing creativity, and turning imagination into reality.
Tune in now! It's a conversation you don't want to miss!
