About the product

Our Illumicrate November theme is . . . TIME IS RUNNING OUT!

This is a single purchase of one of our past book only subscriptions and will not subscribe you to any of our subscription products. 

Temporal hands pass silently over the clock face, counting down to the moment time runs out.

Our November Illumicrate book is an adult fantasy! A new mother has a few hours to herself at the annual year-turning ball, but then attendees start turning up dead. Dragged into a mystery and the lure of her troublesome nemesis, she starts investigating. At the heart of it all seems to be an odd clock which distorts reality, and as it counts down she must solve the enigma before disaster strikes in the final hour.

Our Illumicrate Exclusive edition is a Royal hardback and features:

  • An exclusive cover (from the publisher)
  • Full colour printing and foil on the hardback (by @zookie_art)
  • Digitally printed edges (by @perrycuffdesigns)
  • Illustrated endpapers (by @marceline2174); different front and back
  • Bound-in author letter
  • Signed by the author

If you love dimensions within dimensions, time loops and sapphic workplace nemeses, we think you’ll enjoy this one!

All FAQs
  • 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.

  • How do I change my address for an order I’ve paid for?

    Please fill out our Customer Support form and we can do that for you! If you change your address in your account, this will not carry over to any orders you have paid for, only future orders.

    Once your box has shipped we cannot change your address and you may be charged additional shipping to have it sent to your correct address.

  • I've changed my mind, can I have a refund?

    If you have ordered a subscription product (a box or book) and this is not yet in pre-shipment (we have not yet sent out the emails check your address), then we can usually cancel and refund this for you. We do not issue refunds if you have a 3 or 6 month pre-paid subscription.

    If you have ordered a single purchase item or something from our shop, as long as your order hasn't yet gone into pre-shipment we can usually refund it for you. To cancel your order,  please fill in our Customer Support Form or contact us directly at support@illumicrate.com.
