    TEAR DOWN THE THRONE DESCRIPTION:

    Bestselling author Jennifer Estep continues her Gargoyle Queen epic fantasy series where magic reigns, alliances are tested, and a dangerous attraction could tear down a throne. . .

    Crown princess. Clever spy. Powerful mind magier. Gemma Ripley of Andvari is all those things—and determined to stop an enemy from using magical tearstone weapons to conquer her kingdom.

    Gemma’s quest for answers leads her to a trade Summit between the various kingdoms. Among the other royals in attendance is Queen Maeven Morricone of Morta and her son, Prince Leonidas—Gemma’s charming and dangerous nemesis.

    Gemma knows that Maeven always has a long game in motion, and sure enough, the cunning queen invokes an arcane tradition that threatens the fragile truce between Andvari and the other kingdoms. Despite her best intentions, Gemma once again finds herself thrown together with Leo and battling her growing feelings for the enemy prince.

    When a series of deadly attacks shatters the Summit’s peaceful negotiations, Gemma realizes that someone wants to tear the royals down from their thrones—and that this enemy just might succeed.

    Lauren Fortgang to narrate Tear Down the Throne …

    I’m thrilled to announce that Lauren Fortgang will be the audiobook narrator for Tear Down the Throne. Woot!

    Lauren is the narrator for Capture the Crown, Gargoyle Queen #1, and I am so happy that she is back for Tear Down the Throne.

    Fun fact: Lauren is also the narrator for my Crown of Shards series, and she is the voice of Gin Blanco in my Elemental Assassin series.

    Lauren narrates a lot of other books by a wide variety of authors, if you are looking for more audiobooks to try.

    The digital audiobooks for Tear Down the Throne will be released May 3, the same day as the ebooks/print books. Happy listening!

    Cover art revealed for Tear Down the Throne, Gargoyle Queen #2, May 3 …

    Here is a look at the cover art for Tear Down the Throne, book #2 in my Gargoyle Queen epic fantasy series. Woot!

    I love the colors, the bloody sword, and how Gemma looks like she means business — and has already been in a battle (or two). 😎 

    You all know that I love writing fight scenes, so I think the title is very appropriate for the book/storyline.

    Tear Down the Throne will be released May 3 at all the usual retailers, and the book is available to pre-order.

    Jennifer’s book release schedule for 2022 …

    Here is my book release schedule for 2022. Please note that these dates could always change due to various publishing whims:

    Write Your Own Cake — worldbuilding essay — Feb. 8, 2022

    This is a worldbuilding essay I wrote a few years ago as part of a subscription box. In the essay, I talk about writing and some of the things I thought about when I was creating Kill the Queen and my Crown of Shards epic fantasy world. So if you are interested in writing and worldbuilding, you might enjoy it.

    Tear Down the Throne — Gargoyle Queen #2 — May 3, 2022

    This is the second book about Gemma Ripley that is set in my Crown of Shards epic fantasy world. Capture the Crown is the first book in the trilogy.

    Dirty Deeds 2 anthology — Heart Stings (Lorelei Parker/Elemental Assassin novella #19.5) — June 7, 2022

    I’m so excited to be participating in this urban fantasy anthology with Faith Hunter, Diana Pharaoh Francis, Devon Monk, and R.J. Blain.

    My novella will be from the point of view of Lorelei Parker and take place after Last Strand, book #19 in my Elemental Assassin series.

    TENTATIVE PROJECTS:

    Here are a few tentative projects that I also hope to release in 2022:

    Science-fiction romance — Fall 2022

    I have written a science-fiction romance. I’m not sure what will happen with the book yet, and I might end up self-publishing it. I’ll just have to wait and see how my writing schedule shakes out, among other things.

    Section 47 holiday novella #1.5 — Fall 2022

    I have decided to continue my Section 47 urban fantasy spies-with-magic series. I’m hoping to write a holiday novella featuring Charlotte and Desmond that would be set after the events of A Sense of Danger, book #1.

    As of right now, this is all that I have planned for 2022, and like I said before, some of these dates/projects might change, due to various publishing whims. But you all will have lots of stuff to read from me this year. 😎 

    What books are you looking forward to reading this year?

    Taking a holiday break …

    I am taking a break from blogging for the holidays. I’ll be blogging again starting Monday, Jan. 3 (or maybe Monday, Jan. 10).

    In the meantime, A Sense of Danger, Section 47 stand-alone, is out now. Woot! This urban fantasy book is basically spies with magic. So if you like James Bond, Jason Bourne, Nikita, or Alias, then I think you will enjoy it.

    GET THE EBOOK:

    GET THE PRINT BOOK:

    Booksellers and librarians can order print copies through IngramSpark.

    GET THE AUDIOBOOK:

    A Sense of Danger is an Audible Originals book. It was originally released as an audiobook on Nov. 12, 2020, and I self-published the ebooks and the print books on Nov. 16, 2021.

    A SENSE OF DANGER DESCRIPTION:

    Bestselling author Jennifer Estep serves up a stand-alone urban fantasy adventure filled with secrets, lies, and super spies with amazing magical abilities. Perfect for fans of Alias, James Bond, Jason Bourne, Nikita, and Netflix’s Bodyguard.

    A SPY . . .

    My name is Charlotte Locke, and I’m an analyst for Section 47, a secret government agency that tracks terrorists, criminals, and other paramortal bad guys who want to unleash their abilities on an unsuspecting mortal world. I have a magical form of synesthesia that senses danger and uncovers lies—making me a stealthy operative.

    I’m trudging through another day when one of Section’s cleaners—assassins—takes an interest in me. I don’t need my synesthesia to realize that he is extremely dangerous and that he will do anything to achieve his goals—even if it means putting me in the line of fire.

    . . . AND AN ASSASSIN

    I’m Desmond Percy, one of Section 47’s most lethal cleaners. I’m also a man on a mission, and I need Charlotte Locke’s skills to help me keep a promise, settle a score, and kill some extremely bad people.

    Charlotte might not like me, but we’re stuck together until my mission is over. Still, the more time we spend together, the more I’m drawn to her. But at Section 47, you never know who you can trust—or who might want you dead.

    A Sense of Danger is told in first person from the viewpoints of both Charlotte Locke and Desmond Percy. Helen Laser is the narrator for Charlotte, while Rupert Channing is the narrator for Desmond.

    As of right now, A Sense of Danger is a stand-alone adventure, although if it does well, then I might write some more books in the Section 47 world. Thanks!
