Bloomsbury presents Devils We Know by L.T. Thompson, read by Stephanie Cannon

'Queer buccaneers on a magical adventure . . . one of the comps was Our Flag Means Death, how could I not give it a try? I'm so glad I did!' — Rick Riordan, on Devils Like Us

The sequel to the Stonewall Honor winner Devils Like Us

Three queer teens must bring Death out of hiding to save one of their own in book two of this YA historical fantasy duology that's Our Flag Means Death meets The Lady's Guide to Petticoats and Piracy.

We need to find Death.

Cas, Remy, and Finn are on the run from the Order of Lazarus, a secret society that wants to use Cas’s prophetic powers to capture Death and ensure that only the “unworthy” and “immoral” will meet their ends. Which will not only upend nature’s balance but also tear apart the only place the friends have ever felt safe to be themselves: Aboard the Mori, where Cas can live openly as a trans boy, and where Remy and Finn are beginning to fall for each other. No matter what, they can’t let that happen.

To protect their found family of queer sailors, the three teens will need to find Death first and strike a bargain of their own. But the society is hot on their heels—and so is a demon who’s determined to claim the soul he’s owed. C 2026 L.T. Thompson|P 2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
