About Jadis Moon

Jadis Moon is a published author from Illinois. She writes lush fantasy with angsty romance and tons of yearning.

She is best known for Death & Divination, a fantasy novel with mature characters, slow-burn romance, and political conflict.

She loves stories of self-discovery and often writes them herself. She is a sucker for a good romance novel, the cheesier the better.

When Jadis is not writing, she can usually be found playing a variety of video games or hanging out with her cats. She’s a big fan of Stardew Valley, Baldur’s Gate, and World of Warcraft.

📚 Death and Divination by Jadis Moon

"Prophets are gifted with visions of light, Seers cursed by visions of darkness."

Plagued with visions of death and destruction, Seers rarely reach maturity with their sanity intact. So why has four-hundred-year-old Asteria not yet lost her mind?

With no arcane powers despite her bloodline, Asteria is searching for her place in the world. But when the veil between the worlds grows thin, and the Marked are sacrificed to the gods of the four Immortal realms, Asteria, haunted by visions of slaughter and a mysterious tattooed man, discovers she too bears a Mark.

Claimed by Nox, the God of Death and Darkness, Asteria must travel to the Immortal world, where everything she thought she knew about herself comes into question.

To survive, she must confront the twisted fate that awaits her, revealing dark secrets that were never meant to be discovered.

Day 2 of #authoraugust26 : Tell us about your book/WIP

Meet Light and Lavender, Book Two of the Balance Series ☀️🗡🪉🌬 Coming Spring 2027

Alpha Readers are currently getting acquainted with the second installment of Asteria's story, and I literally can't wait to hear the comments.

Check out the blurb below ⬇️ if the vibes above ⬆️ catch your eye

☀️ We were natural enemies: the Light, and the Void that consumes it.

Asteria Taranis is starting over for the third time:
new realm, new gods, new life.

Trapped in the Light Realm, she spends her days with the God of Light, Lux, learning about her role in the Immortal World while desperately trying to flee the pain inflicted by Nox’s betrayal, using any means necessary to ease the ache.

But as the growing darkness within refuses to be satiated, Asteria discovers the seedy underworld of the Light Realm city, making connections with gods who have far more sinister plans than she anticipated.

Caught in an impossible balancing act between who everyone wants her to be and who she’s destined to become, Asteria must forge her path for herself:

No matter how much death and destruction is left in her wake.

HUGE shout out to @mariahankenman for hosting 🖤🧚🏻‍♀️

Reader's Voice

⭐️ 5 – Victorian grit, slow burn yearning, and betrayal that tastes like blood in your mouth.

A period piece with occult undertones? Say less. Death & Divination lured me in from page one with rich world-building, haunting betrayals, and the kind of deliciously slow burn that has you questioning if you imagined the tension at all.

Char,
Goodreads Reader
