A book that opens with my current mood. The best time to pre-order @fondalee.bsky.social’s The Last Contract of Isako was the moment the option became available in bookstores. The second best time is now. (Out from @orbitbooks.bsky.social in May)

Corporate samurai in space you say? Yes please!
The Last Contract of Isako by @fondalee.bsky.social, out in May, sounds like a whole lot of dystopian cyberpunk fun: corporate espionage, twisty shadowy secrets, and a legendary swordswoman on one last mission on an inhospitable planet ❄️

I am heartbroken by the sudden passing of my translator and friend, Antonio Rivas. Antonio was a brilliant translator, member of the SF&F community, animal lover, and martial artist. We were laughing together only 6 weeks ago. I will miss him so, so much, and my heart goes out to his family. 💔
Desde Pórtico lamentamos el fallecimiento de nuestro querido Antonio Rivas, más conocido como Gorin. Fue miembro de nuestra junta entre 2000 y 2003 y tradujo la saga de los huesos verdes, de Fonda Lee, «Ella dijo destruye», de Nadia Bulkin o «Refugio del viento», de Martin y Tuttle, entre otras.
