Dryad Book Box — One-Off Box: June

Meticulously curated boxes for fantasy fiction fans, delivered straight to your door. 

 

Our June Theme is: Life & Death

 

Our June book of the month is The Sun Blessed Prince by Lindsey Byrd. This enthralling debut has everything we love in a book: compelling POV characters, an intriguing magic system and political machinations. Expect undead assassins, god-blessed magic users, found family, and a queer slow-burn romance to die for!

 

This box will feature a Dryad Exclusive edition of The Sun Blessed Prince, with a fore-edge design stencilled in-house.

 

This box will also include:

 

  • An exclusive letter from the author, Lindsey Byrd.
  • A signed bookplate.
  • A delicious beverage to enjoy while you read. Past examples include hot chocolate, coffee, and tea! 

 

Our boxes are packed with care in-house. Books are gift-wrapped, and our packaging is sustainably sourced and plastic-free. Boxes are £22 + P&P, and are sent via Royal Mail Tracked 48 or via International Tracked.

 

Please note that this is a single box, not a monthly subscription.

 

Boxes ship during the final week of every month. Our June box is due to begin shipping on June 23rd.

 

Due to the recent changes in EU shipping regulations, we are sadly unable to ship to the EU, including NI. 

 

More about The Sun Blessed Prince…

 

On a hotly-contested battlefield, a prince whose touch creates life meets a soldier chosen by death. But can they forge a future together, from opposite sides of a great war?

 

A lyrical and character-driven queer fantasy for those who loved She Who Became the Sun, The Song of Achilles and Sistersong.

 

Prince Elician is a Giver – a closely-guarded secret. He can heal any wound and bring the dead back to life. He also can’t be killed, so is cursed to watch his country wage an endless war. Reapers can kill with a single touch. And when one attacks Prince Elician near a hotly contested battlefield, the Reaper expects a terrible punishment. Instead, Elician offers him a new life on enemy territory.

 

Cat, as Elician calls him, hadn’t realized he could ever find someone who would make life worth living. Yet Elician’s enemies plan to turn his kindness against him. As the pieces of a deadly plot come together, tensions escalate at court and on the battlefield. The fires of conflict burst into new flame – but can those who wield the powers of life and death find peace?
