PSA: don't believe everything you read on the internet. But especially not today (and tomorrow when the overseas pranks start flowing in).

Here are some things that definitely should not be believed if announced today

Stopped in to @galaxybookshop.bsky.social today to pick up Thyme Travellers, an anthology of Palestinian speculative fiction edited by @soniasulaiman.bsky.social.

It's a much-anticipated read, and thanks again Galaxy for getting it in from OS!

Support your local bookshop!

This is an impressive haul. Hope you enjoy 😃
I had the rare treat of a few hours yo myself and a very generous book voucher from my wife for my birthday.

Safe to say I had a ball at @galaxybookshop.bsky.social

@anthonyryan.bsky.social you may see a small spike in your Australian sales!

Got to read this and "Tremendous fun" is selling this book so short. It's the most ridiculously fun thing I've read in years. You should go preorder it now from your local bookstore.

Go! Go now!!!
Got some more trade reviews for HOW TO BECOME THE DARK LORD AND DIE TRYING! Kirkus gives a star and says "Tremendous fun." (1/2)
