Today we’re super excited to host another cover reveal, this time for Drown Deep by Phil Williams, the second in The Blood Scouts series that began with the incredible However Many Must Die – which has recently been named a semi-finalist in this year’s SPFBOX! If you haven’t picked that up yet, then now’s your chance to indulge in a World War-inspired fantasy world featuring an all-women squad and deadly monsters.
Here’s what the sequel has in store for our Blood Scouts:
Where armies won’t go, the Blood Scouts must…
Wild Wish has reluctantly left the front line behind. No more fighting. No more friends. But she’s about to get an invitation to a fight no one else dares touch.
There’s trouble in the Saints Mire, a strictly neutral land with deep religious history. Here, the secrets of the Prophets are preserved by the foreboding Ten Priories – isolated for centuries, steeped in myth, and now under attack.
A rogue Drail army of veterans, criminals and goblins has invaded, and a reckless company of Comity partisans are itching to stop them. The top brass want nothing to do with it, so it’s up to Wild Wish and her new band of ragged misfits to keep things from escalating.
She must brave the heart of a nightmare land harbouring great, hidden power – and even greater hidden threats. Secrets millennia in the making may be exposed – with the potential to change the very shape of the war.
But if Wish can find an opportunity to rebuild The Blood Scouts, maybe it’ll be worth it?
Drown Deep is a breakneck return to the Rocc and its epic global war: get ready for more heart-pumping action and enthralling characters from this unforgettably unsettling world.
Are you ready for the cover reveal? I’m not sure you are!

I absolutely loved the cover for However Many Must Die – in fact I named it one of my favourites from this year’s SPFBO – and the cover to the sequel is just as amazing! I’m simply in love with the detail in these covers. All credit to the talented artist, Stefan Koidl.
Drown Deep by Phil Williams is releasing in October 2024. Preorders will be coming soon. To find out more, visit the Drown Deep book page on Phil’s website:
