This book was my baby for over half my life, and it broke my heart when it went out of print.
I'm elated it's getting a new lease on life. @stagah-artworks.bsky.social has done amazing with the art, and I love the layout by @toddkeisling.com, even fitting the nine-pointed star on the spine 🔪🌊
I still don't feel like blogging a lot but I can't let June end before I share some of my #pride recommendations. I say some because I'm sure I will forget absolutely amazing books, but I hope you'll forgive me.
Let's go! Be Gay, Do Crimes!
Yeah like... a *bit* odd with the cream but shit, we have jam sandwiches, so why not?

A "limen" is a threshold.
Therefore, "liminal" is an adjective describing that which pertains to thresholds or contains the essence of a threshold.
Like a hallway, the astral plane, or hypnagogia!

The Devils, by @joeabercrombie.com (pub by @gollancz.bsky.social) has been an absolute ride; a dark fantasy inspired by Dark Age Europe that gives you a group of ragtags that you end loving. I can't stress enough how much I loved this novel.

Somehow we're about to hit Pride month! 🌈
Which unfortunately means Off Limits Press is about to close down. May 31st is your last chance to get my cosmic horror WORM trilogy or my space horror standalone in print or ebook.
After that, they'll only be available in audio until they find new pubs.
I'm currently reading The Devils by @joeabercrombie.com and it has me in a chokehold somewhat. 😂 I will *definitely* be getting to First Law (finally) soonish, after this! #booksky #books #reading

The fuck is happening?!) and I'm feeling the summery vibes, that means mood has officially switched to summer reading: yeah it's horror, the mood is horror. I'm that weirdo. So I started @chuckwendig.bsky.social's new book!
