Larger than life action, sarcasm and banter, compelling characters, deepening world building, and a loyal vampire-dog who steals the show.

Another fantastic story by @stevemchugh.bsky.social

Yes, same here!
To me it is soothing to know I'll never run out.

I just feel sorry for all the good books waiting!

Yes, I agree on the dragons!

I'll probably not read the sequel, just too many other books waiting...

Latest one:

...may not be a genre-redefining masterpiece, but it’s an engaging read with some original touches, especially in its handling of language and magic.

I’ve just seen the final version of the UK cover art for Mark Lawrence’s upcoming Daughter of Crows. It’s so hauntingly beautiful I’ve got goosebumps all over!

It’s another triumph for HarperVoyager after the stunning Library trilogy covers. Cover artist Tom Roberts is definitely a keeper!

ICYMI - The 3rd new artwork (of 6) going into An Emperor's Gamble Deluxe! 🦅🏔️

This scene leans more humorous. In it, Tal is doing his best impression of a baby gryphon to evade a swift evisceration. Think he fooled the Mama Gryphon?

This is so utterly silly, it made me laugh.

So what's your horror book recommendation, that has some humour in it as well?

Gatwick is ok, much better than Heathrow 😅 just almost no seating, but it's smaller and easier!

I'll have to go back via Heathrow and *ugh*

I feel you, though for me it's the travelling anxiety, especially as I'm going hubby less for the first time. 🙈😱

Though only to Bristol, he'll join me for Brighton...
