I want a door like this!
Just not somewhere I want to keep the wind out of ๐
I'm sure there are doors like this in the Academy in Daughter of Crows.
Enough crows for a murder!

First photo - the boxes of signing pages I spent 9 days signing! ๐ฎ
Look what I got!
An early version of Scott Hawkins upcoming book.
11 years ago Hawkins gave us the fabulous and fabulously weird Library at Mount Char.
As far as I know, that was his debut, and this is his 2nd novel. So, a slow worker, but I'm sure the quality shows.
Can't wait to get started!
There's a side-industry in taking standard editions and making them even more beautiful - like these two books from The Library Trilogy.
There are "enhanced" copies of Daughter of Crows being sold too.
I'm unable to vouch for these companies (with which I have no association) and have been told that delivery times can be long.
However, the results here are very very nice!
Thanks to the hard work of the good folks at @harpervoyager_uk and @thelockedlibrary Daughter of Crows will debute at #3 on The Sunday Times bestseller list this Easter!
Hooray ๐๐๐๐
But wait! There's more!
These are not boxes of books that I signed. They're boxes of signing pages to go in signed editions.
Took me NINE days to sign them all.
13,500 pages ๐ฎ
There's a Daughter of Crows special edition still to come!
