This next spellbinding installment of Juno’s “irresistible” fantasy series Her Majesty's Royal Coven (Lana Harper) takes us back to the reign of Henry VIII and the origins of Her Majesty’s Royal Coven under the beautiful, the bewitching, Anne Boleyn.

It’s 1536 and the Queen has been beheaded.

Lady Grace Fairfax, witch, knows that something foul is at play—that someone had betrayed Anne Boleyn and her coven. Wild with the loss of their leader—and her lover, a secret that if spilled could spell Grace’s own end— she will do anything in her power to track down the traitor. But there’s more at stake than revenge: it was one of their own, a witch, that betrayed them, and Grace isn’t the only one looking for her. King Henry VIII has sent witchfinders after them, and they’re organized like they’ve never been before under his new advisor, the impassioned Sir Ambrose Fulke, a cold man blinded by his faith. His cruel reign could mean the end of witchkind itself. If Grace wants to find her revenge and live, she will have to do more than disappear.

She will have to be reborn.

In this gripping, propulsive, sultry short novel, Juno Dawson takes us back to the bloody beginnings of Her Majesty’s Royal Coven to show us the strength, steel and sacrifice it takes to make a sisterhood.
A MUST READ BOOK OF THE SUMMER IN THE LA TIMES | TOWN & COUNTRY | AUTOSTRADDLE | GIZMODO | REACTOR

“Juno summons a tale that is the perfect length for a sultry weekend read.” -- Los Angeles Times

"Dawson’s talent to portray flawed characters in a way that makes you love them all the more for their flaws instead of in spite of them absolutely shines in this novel...[Queen B] makes for the perfect addition to this magical universe.” -- Nerd Daily

"Juno Dawson's fantasy series Her Majesty's Royal Coven continues to delight....even if you haven't read the other books in this series, this imagining of witchy Anne Boleyn--full of magic, courtly intrigue, and more--is an absolute delight." -- Town & Country

"Dawson’s novel sets up one woman’s story of love, service, and survival and builds on her alternate England where witches and their enemies are in power. This prequel to Her Majesty’s Royal Coven leans into the real history of Anne Boleyn and creates a delightful origin story for the series." -- Library Journal

"Secret magic, forbidden love, and courtly intrigue abound in this passionate and richly rendered sapphic historical fantasy...This taste of the founding lore of Her Majesty’s Royal Coven will delight series fans and stands well enough on its own to draw in newcomers as well. Dawson leaves readers wanting more." -- Publishers Weekly
