Wait, what’s Lady’s Knight?
You can learn about how this book came to be by checking out our last newsletter, but here’s the cover copy, just to catch you up:
A rollercoaster of a medieval romp and a sapphic love story, set in a world of dragons, witches and excellent snacks from NYT bestselling duo, Amie Kaufman and Megan Spooner. Perfect for fans of Gwen and Art are Not in Love, Twin Crowns and My Lady Jane.
A blacksmith’s daughter with a secret.
A lady with a plan.
We’re in for one unforgettable knight…
Gwen has spent the past several years manning the blacksmith’s in place of her father, an open secret in the village in which she lives. A much more covert secret, however, is that she knows not only how to craft but also how to wield a sword, and an incognito stunt at the local jousting tournament manages to catch the eye of the wily Lady Isobelle.
Isobelle has secret dreams too, but she’s been promised in marriage to the winner of the whole stupid tournament, which means an end to any freedom or choices for her. Desperate to avoid this fate, when she connects the newcomer knight to the female smithy she saw earlier that day, she begins to hatch a scheme…
Petty knights. Backstabbing noblemen. A prison breakout. Cheesecake-on-a-stick. One particularly large and angry dragon.
Will our ladies survive the night? And can our knight save the day?
A cover update
Our next newsletter to you will be a cover reveal, but for now, we can only say that… this might be our favourite cover we’ve ever had?
We’ve seen the most beautiful sketches from a staggeringly talented artist (true story: we are professionals, but both started shrieking and sending incoherent emails when our publisher proposed her) and the cover feels as beautiful, cheeky and even transgressive as parts of this story…

Brand new blurbs
We have a collection of amazing blurbs accumulating for Lady’s Knight, and we’re over the moon to see them rolling in. We both know how hard it is to find time to read for blurbs, and we’re honoured these authors did. Here are just a few — we’ll share more next time!
"Writing that is above all else marvelously warm, and at the same time witty, adventure and romance that will sweep you off your feet—a double sweep, and a triumph!" — Sarah Rees Brennan, #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of Long Live Evil
"You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll be ready to fight any dragon after reading this delightful tale full of swoony romance, heart-racing action, and the very best banter in the realm!" — Beth Revis, New York Times bestselling co-author of Night of the Witch
“Clever, funny, thrilling, and romantic—Lady’s Knight will inspire readers to take up their swords to fight dragons and the patriarchy. Perfect for fans of A Knight’s Tale and anyone who loves a romantasy with wit, charm, and the occasional comedic fourth wall break.”
— F.T. Lukens, New York Times bestselling author of So This Is Ever After
We’ll be back as launch approaches to share more news about Lady’s Knight! If you want monthly writing updates in the meantime, remember you can always subscribe to Amie Kaufman: Finding North or follow us on instagram. You can find Amie here, and Meg here.
See you soon!
I’m so excited for this book XD
Goodreads! I'm on a book buying ban for a few months so the arc would circumvent that and my husband can't be mad lol
