💀 Le 9 octobre prochain paraîtra mon livre Terry Pratchett et la Mort : Mourir en majuscules (@edlatalante.bsky.social).
La mort est un sujet central dans l’œuvre et la vie de Pratchett, une évidence qu’il a longtemps cherché à comprendre et non à craindre.

Showdown

A comic, with four rows of panels.

The first row has three panels. In the first panel, the corgi hero, brandishing a sword and looking annoying, approaches the source of our cat, who is relaxing with sunglasses on at the edge of a cliff. The second and third panel of focus on the cat... She seized the dog approaching and casually uses her magic stand to open up a hole in the bottom of the third panel, so she can leap down into the next row.

The second row is one wide panel. We see now that the cliffside where the cat was resting was on the left side of a large gap, with another cliff on the opposite side at the right edge of the panel. The corgi and kat are now standing on opposite sides of this gap, as the cat has slept down to the right side from the hole hole she made in the third panel of the previous row. She laughs at the dog, who can no longer get at her.

The third row is one wide panel. The corgi uses his sword to slice at the top border of the panel. The cat looks puzzled.

The fourth row is one white panel. The top border of the panel has become detached where the corgi sliced it, and he is now swinging on it like a rope to get to the other side. The cat panics.

Hey Majordomo fans, I just released a new reader magnet titled 'Nepherous'. You can get it for free here: dl.bookfunnel.com/6jud1oibu7

I'll hype this 6k story more later, but if the title means anything to you, have a look. (Or if you just want a free, funny, cozy-stabby story.)

Loving son, apprentice, prodigy... necromancer

When he discovers a once-in-a-generation talent for necromancy, mild-mannered Nigel Newberry must choose between his former priorities—pleasing his mother, learning the healing crafts, and marrying hi...

So my friend @devinsinger.bsky.social just turned me on to the text of this amazing Terry Pratchett speech from the early 1980s and OH MY GOD it's hysterical and still relevant today.

Also this thing he identifies is exactly why Samarkar is a Wizard and not a witch.

Update : I have now read Jester and I can confirm that I really like books by @tbcart.bsky.social Fun, clever and well written, Jester is a very good story.

I must say that ploy worked. I loved Majordomo by @tbcart.bsky.social and I bought Jester

Pour bien terminer ce week-end, je vous propose cette somptueuse photographie d'une mante religieuse (Creobroter sp. yunnan) se perchant gracieusement sur le célèbre champignon-zombie Cordyceps (Cordyceps sp.)

Sur cette photographie fascinante, une mante religieuse (Creobroter sp. yunnan) se perche sur un champignon Cordyceps (Cordyceps sp.), sur fond noir. La mante, parée de teintes bleues vibrantes et de motifs complexes, contraste fortement avec la forme surréaliste du champignon Cordyceps, évoquant tous deux des extraterrestres venus de planètes lointaines.

Il y a quelques temps sur Twitter j'avais fait un fil pour parler des "cases parfaites", c'est à dire les cases qui m'ont soudain marqué en lisant une BD. Parfois simples, parfois épique, il y a comme ça des cases qui sont restées gravées dans ma mémoire. Je voudrais refaire ici ce fil #CaseParfaite
