A venn diagram featuring three fantasy novels. In one circle is the cover of "Asunder" by Kerstin Hall, in the second circle is the cover of "The Witch Roads" by Kate Elliott, and in the last circle is the cover of "The Last Hour Between Worlds" by Melissa Caruso. Where the circles of Asunder and The Witch Roads overlaps is text reading, "Terrifying eldritch beings and blood magic." Where the circles of Asunder and The Last Hour Between Worlds overlaps is text reading "Charming and incorporeal love interests." Where the circles of The Witch Roads and the Last Hour Between Worlds overlaps is text reading, "MC travels perilously for a living."

Had this realization about three of my favorite fantasy novels I've read this year: Asunder by @kerstinhall.bsky.social, The Last Hour Between Worlds by @melissacaruso.bsky.social and The Witch Roads by @kateelliottsff.bsky.social. All of them also have queer characters :) #booksky

BRB MUST GO THANK ALL THE STARS I WISHED ON FOR THIS!!!

If your life feels like a black hole right now, harness that energy. Devour light & matter, and bend all time and space around you with the sheer power of your existence.

Do not fear the night.
Face it boldly.
You and your frazzled Muppet hair, wine buzz, deep ennui, and comfortable oversized pants belong to the darkness.

Cover for Skullrunner, featuring two lady pirates giving each other longing looks as tentacles coil about their legs and a giant skull hovers above them

COVER REVEAL!

Eva, the death-marked foster daughter of a memory-stealing tyrant, joins a pirate crew to expose her father’s deeds and peacefully bring down the regime threatening women like her. But some change only comes at knifepoint.

Thank you for writing it!

A book cover of a young woman with her back to the viewer, looking over her shoulder. She has a rifle strapped to her back and is wearing a white leather jacket. A neon teal flame is in her open hand. A fox made of neon teal flame stands in front of her.

My debut novel, Iron Spirit, came out a couple months ago! It's on Amazon KU until the end of January and then will go wide again. a.co/d/eL1xy3E

I'm a nonbinary trans author and one of the characters in this series is trans. (:

The covers of the first eight Gryphon Insurrection novels by K. Vale Nagle, cover art by Jeff Brown. Eyrie shows a Cooper's hawk gryphon leaping over a kakapo ground parrot in a redwood forest. Ashen Weald shows a snowy owl snow leopard gryphon leading a wingtorn shrike gryphon out of a burning forest and into the snowy mountains. Starling shows a Peruvian diving petrel opinicus or more-avian gryphon in a bog surrounded by silver-eyed, rabid starlings. Reevesbane shows a poisonous hooded pitohui stalking an ashen forest full of giant monitor lizards. The Ruins of Crestfall shows a hoopoe bird sand cat gryphon in an abandoned redrock canyon settlement. Crackling Sea shows a great blue heron flying past stormy cliffs. Opinicus shows an armored white-tailed kite overlooking a golden city at dawn. Pridelord shows a green starling cougar gryphon in a jungle with skies full of a murmuration of other starling gryphons. "Interesting gryphons in interesting locations" could be the tagline.

Oh, hello, genderfluid author here. My GryphIns series is Wings of Fire—for adults!—with gryphons. If you love gryphons based on weird birds/mammals, fun animal facts, queer characters, and epic fantasy, Eyrie is free or discounted in most stores for the next month.

In case you need an idea of where you can start… 📚

Illustration of the angel Michael defeating the red dragon in the book of revelation. The dragon, a twisting serpentine mass like exposed muscle tissue, roars as a mote of light strikes its forehead, leaving a trail of blue smoke behind it. A halo of stars surrounds the dragons head

Vector illustration of the angel michael, represented as a six-armed humanoid figure shrouded and armored in blue, wielding a sword and spear against a red dragon

Ink illustration of a scene from Paradise Lost in which the archangel michael, represented as a gigantic hooded humanoid whose face and hands are either made of metal plating or covered in metal plating, wearing an elaborate fringed robe. In his right hand, Adam is seated. A backdrop of horned angels rises behind them, their mirror-like faces reflecting scenes from humanity’s future (like Cain killing Abel)

happy michaelmas, here’s some michael the archangel art from over the years

good time to call your democratic reps and describe to them what having a spine might look like

In 2008 I met a climate scientist from Mali who was advocating for this so long that he looked exhausted. Absolutely amazing man. He was working so hard on this. And then I see numbers like this and my heart just soars. Youba Sokona, you (and your peers) really did it.
