I've been mulling over the final names of THE CURSED MAN and THE DRAGON MISTRESS for a while now, and have at last settled on them. THE CURSED MAN will now be known as A NORTH-SOUTH DIVIDE, and THE DRAGON MISTRESS will simply be called ALYSHA. NSD is a lot less generic than THE CURSED MAN, and runs with the theme of the novel that Duncan moves between the hemispheres of the world, as he attempts to rid himself of his curse. I went with simply titling ALYSHA after the protagonist of the novel, as I didn't feel that THE DRAGON MISTRESS was right - it implies that Alysha is the overseer or queen of some sort of dragon army, which isn't the case at all.

Both books are currently being proofread and cover art has been commissioned. No ETA yet on the delivery, but it will be sometime around September 2018. More news will be posted once the publication dates have been nailed down.
