We’re thrilled to share the cover of Under the Iron Sky, the start of a dark, seductive trilogy from author A.T. Emerald—available on October 13, 2026 from Delacorte. Vordell was beautiful once. Its people lived in harmony, and their civilization flourished as they learned to harness and control the power of Light.Then the darkness came.The Iron Sky unfolded dark clouds across the land, thick enough to choke out the light of the suns. The ground cracked, releasing vicious creatures that looked like humanity’s oldest fears. The Dar’rak—an enemy long believed to be buried and forgotten—returned to claim the world above.Soraya Tollmere has spent most of her life on the front lines of the brutal war that followed. Now a high-ranking commander, she knows loss better than anyone.By day, she leads troops across ruined landscapes and guides covert teams through enemy territory. By night, she meets with a Dar’rak defector who has kept humanity alive with his steady stream of secrets.On a mission to investigate his latest lead—one that could turn the tide of the war—Soraya is captured by The Demon, the Dar’rak’s most feared soldier, his true identity unknown.His orders are simple: break the human commander, uncover where the humans are keeping a weapon that could win them the war, and bring it to the Dar’rak. But as he gets to know the fierce warrior, the lines between interrogator and enemy, prisoner and ally, begin to blur.As devastating truths surface and loyalties shatter, Soraya must decide who to trust in a world where light is dying—and where her greatest enemy may be her only salvation. Cover art by Marcela Bolivar, design by Sarah Horgan From the author, A.T. Emerald: Being dyslexic, I’m a very visual person, so when I started writing Under the Iron Sky, I set out to create a book that felt as cinematic as it did immersive, and oh my goodness—did this cover have me screaming and kicking my feet! I don’t want to give too much away, but when the book starts, the planet of Vordell… Well, she’s seen better days. Buildings are crumbling, sunlight is a thing of the past, and what was once glittering gold is now rotting and rusted beyond recognition. All sounds very cheery, I know—but as with many dark fantasy novels, not everything is as it seems. I had an absolute blast creating this world and characters, and I really hope readers enjoy getting as lost exploring this world with me where magic and technology are at war, and trusting the wrong person is the difference between survival and ruin.
