This is a single purchase of one of our past book only subscriptions and will not subscribe you to any of our subscription products.
Our featured book this month is a YA fantasy standalone by a debut author. Each spring, a kingdom condemns 12 girls to die to sate the centuries-old curse a god placed upon their land. When one of the sacrificed girls wakes up on a mysterious island, she and the island’s lone resident form a plan: go undercover at the palace and kill the crown prince. If they succeed, the curse will be broken and no more girls will be sacrificed… but at what personal cost?
We love this achingly beautiful story, with its determined main characters and sapphic yearning, and we shed many tears reading it!
Our edition is signed by the author and features:
- Redesigned cover
- Digitally printed edges
- Foil embossing on the hardback
- Artwork endpapers with foil highlights with artwork by @niallcgrant (different designs front and back!)
- We have kept the spirit (and high levels of foil!) of the stunning UK trade cover, but are featuring a different design, also by designer @micaelaalcaino!

What is Illumicrate?
Illumicrate started life as a quarterly subscription box, and we're proud that we were the first UK book subscription box! We launched in the summer of 2015, and our very first box was November 2015. We now offer two options for the Illumicrate monthly subscriptions: a full box subscription and a book only subscription, which features the books included in our monthly boxes.
In 2021 we launched Afterlight, a quarterly romance subscription box that is now monthly. Evernight, a quarterly horror subscription box, was launched in July 2023. Our new science fiction book only subscription Starbright will launch in February 2025.
We also offer special editions of books and book sets, with a range of customisations exclusive to Illumicrate. We have also held virtual signings and in 2019 we launched our Debut Boxes, showcasing new debut authors. Our Collections, Archives and Mini-boxes focus on a particular author or fandom.
