ABOUT
In death there is banishment—and betrayal.
After surviving the Desert Walk, Avery awakens to find she has landed in the House of Death at the edge of the world. Still, dangerous High Fae secrets have followed her, and Avery must strike another bargain with the Death fae. This time, however, she doesn’t know who she’s working with or against. Then someone from her past returns, and the game changes completely.
With the help of allies and magic, Avery must traverse the haunted terrain of Amyria to reach her loved ones in time. Yet time and luck are never on a faerie’s side, though that hasn’t stopped her before. Encountering faces, histories, and stakes new and ancient, both Avery and the Valley rapidly transform. And not everyone will survive.
STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
