Benjamin Dean | The King Is Dead

Who doesn't love a royal scandal? Benjamin Dean's debut YA book certainly offers exactly that, the likes of which you have never read before. The King Is Dead is a Black LGBTQ+ royal reimagining full of scandalous secrets, rollercoaster romances and one hell of a mystery. Officially described as Gossip Girl... but make it royal. In this episode of The Queerly Books Podcast Ben tells us how his love for Princess Diana inspired this story, describes the moment he wasn't sure if he could finish the book and answers questions from @queerly.books followers on Instagram.

The King Is Dead is out now in the UK from Simon & Schuster and will be published in the US & Canada next year. You can find Benjamin on Instagram, Twitter and TikTok as @NotAgainBen.
