I made a pledge on Kickstarter for "Solarpunk Magazine" 2024 with only a few hours to go - I've loved reading the magazine this year and am really happy to support them!

Got waylaid by all the great perks but
ended up going with the collection because I loved the short story "Midnight Serenade" by @jendiagammon (@jendiagammon) and I wanted to read their novel "The Inn at the Amethyst Lantern" - very excited!

Today's indie author review!

Linda reviews "Trueflame" by Vanessa Ricci-Thode, Fireborn book 2:

"I recommend Trueflame and would suggest reading book one first. This book is full of amazing characters, betrayals, secrets, and surprises - a war between water and fire. Wow."

The trilogy of Ferryman is now complete : Ferryman, Trespassers and Outcasts. I only read the first book for the moment, but I really loved this ya novel. The characters are very deep and touching and their backstories are explored along the way. Claire Mc Fall’s novel is extremely poetic and introspective. It is a spiritual and paranormal romance, a very unique mixture that kept me hooked.

Uważam, że to bardzo przyjemna powieść z gatunku czarnego kryminału (pomieszana z urban fantasy), choć nie mogę pozbyć się wrażenie, że powinienem czuć niedosyt. Trochę niewykorzystanych wątków i pomysł, ale możliwe, że częściowo zostawiono to na część drugą. A po nią sięgnę, bo to pozycja warta polecenia.

Vielleicht aktueller denn je: #Steppenbrand ist nicht nur eine spannende Geschichte über den Aufstieg und Fall des Steppenfürsten Dejasir no Sonak, sondern auch über den Untergang von Demokratien. Rezensionen gibt es bei Amazon, für Leseprobe und Kauf verlinke ich aber zu BoD (da sind die Margen besser ^^).

Mélusine by Katherine Addison is still only 1.99. This series is mind-blowing. If you haven't read it yet, here's the place to start.

Moonlight Blade debuts on Silver Claw November 14th, 2023. That’s a little over a week away with episode one, and continuing on a bi-weekly basis up to episode 6. This is a long project that’s years in the making and I can’t wait to introduce the world of Arcana and the Polaris Universe.

What's worse than being ignored by your god?

Worse is having your god owe you a favor. Particularly when he's a trickster.

Anari has won his god's undivided attention. If he can survive it, he will have one chance to save them all. Fortunately, Anari has a few tricks up his own sleeve.

I’ve just finished this gorgeous novella by Priya Sharma. Very complex in all the good ways, and transparently simple in all the beautiful ones.

Let's do a update! From my favorites bookshelf -

A TASTE OF HONEY by Kai Ashante Wilson! (2016)

A gorgeous high fantasy novella (who says high fantasy has to be doorstopper-length?), unapologetically Black & queer.

My beloved vector shared a virus, as toddlers are wont to do. And I am not up to reading something new. I pulled 's Ombria in Shadow from the shelf and read it today.

No, it is not a favourite in her oeuvre, but it had some shivering resonances with our current events. A tale about memory and perception, before and after, and how culture, society, identity, has complex interconnections between fable and fact.

Plus romance.
