Your Next Romantasy Obsession: Witches, War, & Slow Burn in The Witch Queen

13 Jul 2025

Description

We’re kicking off our Fiction’s Fresh Faces mini series with debut author Alexandria Arden, who’s taking the Romantasy world by storm with The Witch Queen. In this episode, we go behind the scenes on her writing process, how she self-published a 200K-word fantasy novel with no traditional publisher, and what sets her morally gray heroine and reluctant-allies-to-lovers romance apart. We also get into her hot takes on enemies-to-lovers tropes, viral book discourse, and why mature protagonists matter in fantasy. If you love deep worldbuilding, emotional slow burns, and Manon Blackbeak energy—this episode is for you.🎧 Plus: spicy scene talk, author icks, and a playlist that slaps harder than a massverse cliffhanger.🔗 Grab The Witch Queen on Kindle Unlimited or alexandriaarden.com 📚 Follow @alexandriaardenauthor on Instagram and TikTok✨ Follow @bookbitsclub on Instagram & TikTok for more book club chaos, recaps, recs, and reviews.
