OCTOBER'S BOX THEME
POWER HAS A PRICE
Our October book is a story filled with magic and mayhem! In order to save her family's ranch, our protagonist finds herself entering a dangerous race, competing against the most elite riders in the city. But this is no ordinary race — the stakes are high and danger lurks around every corner. In order to succeed, she enlists the help of an enchanter who works with a secret, illegal form of magic, and a mysterious young lord — both with their own dark secrets that they'll do anything to protect.
Perfect for fans of The Scorpio Races and The Hunger Games, this Jewish-inspired fantasy is an exciting tale full of forbidden magic, political intrigue, and a dash of fiery romance!

Our book pick for October features an unlikely group working together to win a cutthroat enchanted horse race. In This Dark Descent we find a horse breeder, a black-market enchanter, an ambitious heir, and his broody friend join together to make sure that they win the race. This is no ordinary horse race, as the odds are stacked against them and no one can be trusted, not even each other. This signed edition features a gorgeous redesigned exclusive cover by @anta_arf. Turn it over to view the reversible dust jacket with beautiful artwork by @rhymes.y. We also have wonderful stenciled edges adorning this book by @carmen.dmdesign.
Beneath the dust jacket, @divineliterary has created a stunning foil hardcover design. Peek inside to view two gorgeous exclusive end pages by @spookgeist and a designed signature page by @divineliterary. Finally, an author letter and a bonus chapter from Kalyn Josephson has been bound into the book for our subscribers!
