Best-selling romantasy author Sarah J Maas, who has sold more than 75 million books worldwide, has announced two new novels in her A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) series.

The 40-year-old American author announced the publishing of her two new books on Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy podcast on Wednesday evening, telling fans "the story that was finally ready to come out of me was big - really, really big".

Her books, which have been published in 40 languages, blend the romance and fantasy genres, and her two latest works will be released in October this year and January 2027.

She is credited with fuelling interest in the romantasy genre, which has skyrocketed in popularity due to its discussion on #BookTok, which is the literature discussion side of TikTok.

Speaking about her new novels, she said "it came out of me in a way that surprised me", and that there would essentially be four parts being told across three books - ACOTAR 6, ACOTAR 7 and then in a fourth, unannounced book.
