And Garden of Rotten Roses is part of the bundle! While technically the second book in World Without Love, you can read it as a kind of appetiser for the world and stories you'll find in the other books!

Sometime last month, I read Hunger Pangs by Joy Demorra and ADORED it.

I've written a full review of this endearing Pratchett-Austen mashup of a queer vampire-werewolf romantasy here: https://andorabrokaw.com/2025/10/11/hunger-pains-true-love-bites-by-joy-demorra/

(Please excuse the promotion. I wanted a pinned post about my published novel since it's important to me.)

In addition to hanging around being all liberal and queer, teaching skiing, and watching too many sports, I write stuff!

Details, purchase links, and the first three chapters of my polyamorous romantasy, The Harmony of Falling Snow, can be found at https://andorabrokaw.com/the-harmony-of-falling-snow/

THE HARMONY OF FALLING SNOW
by Andora Brokaw

Three hearts, one story.

Maggie
Deported to the faerie world despite spending her entire life on Earth, Maggie needs help.

Yuri
Yuri specializes in helping immigrants. But as Maggie’s ex, he shouldn’t work with her. And he certainly shouldn’t rope his boyfriend Vil into hosting her.

Vil
Vil is unable to turn someone in need of friends away. Even if she and his boyfriend are still in love. And even if she’s oddly attached to monogamy.

*********

While magic sparks between Maggie and Vil, Yuri struggles with secrets that affect them all.

The triad will need to overcome expectations, fears, and even national politics to achieve lasting happiness together. Failure will leave at least one of them brokenhearted and alone. But success could make life better than they ever imagined in this sweet polyamorous romantasy about hope and resilience.

My SIGNED copy of C. M. Alongi’s upcoming novel “Heart of Iron” arrived today! I’m very excited to have it on paper, even though I already read a digital advanced copy.


This is the story of how Violet, AKA the Iron Witch AKA the Traitor Princess (who has settled in the mortal realm running a coffee shop called CaFae Latte) has her past come back to visit her, and the humans and other beings she’s helped and befriended in the mortal realm team up to save her, even as one of them—the newly-sober newly-released-from-prison baker—is framed.


I’m like 99% sure every “good guy” in this book is queer.


“Heart of Iron” will be released Oct 7.

U.K. transphobes were trying to retroactively claim the late Terry Pratchett as one of their own. Thankfully, his daughter shot this down brilliantly by pointing out that his books are full of pro-trans stories.
