Anna Smith Spark sometimes nicknamed the queen of grimdark being one of the rare (only? comment if you know of another one) women writing in this genre and Michael R. Fletcher are collaborating on a new book coming in Mars this year :
In the Shadow of their Dying
The third best assassin. A second rate mercenary crew. One terrifying demon.
As Sharaam crumbles under siege, a mercenary crew hires an assassin to kill the king. For Tash, it’s a chance at glory—to be the best blade in the dark Sharaam has ever known. For Pitt, it’s a way to get his cutthroat crew past the Tsarii siege and out of this hellhole, maybe even with some gold to their name. For Iananr the Bound One, it’s a dream of shadows and human blood.
