After a five-year hiatus that tested fans' patience like a glitchy software update, Sarah J. Maas reappears announcing the sixth 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' book will debut on October 27, 2026. With publisher Bloomsbury nursing a 10% sales dip from her absence, Maas decided a traditional book wouldnât cut itâso she split a single story into at least four parts, promising 1000+ pages and multiple releases extending into 2027 and beyond. The first volume is just Part One, Parts Two and Three drop together on January 12, 2027, and Part Four remains shrouded in mystery. She confessed during a 'Call Her Daddy' podcast that she 'canât do math,' signaling complex scheduling will challenge the strongest calendars. Meanwhile, fans get a spooky Autumn Equinox party kit complete with themed cocktails like the 'Shadowsinger Spritz'âbecause nothing screams fantasy epic like coordinating seasonal parties with intertwined magical courts. Maas also insists these chapbooks are one massive story, not a neat trilogy, guaranteeing future readers to buy enough books to accidentally renovate their shelves. In short: Prepare your credit cards and reading chairs; Maas is back, longer and more divided than ever.
