Lord of Mysteries: The Clown by Cuttlefish That Loves Diving @yenpress.com
For what I've seen, the edition looks stunning and the translation seems fairly good. If you're watching the adaptation and love it but are very confused get the novel ♥️♥️

Continuamos con Edward Carey, y estos dos señores guapísimos que repiten panel. Es el primer Celsius de Edward, escritor e ilustrador de libros muy peculiares que definitivamente merecen la pena.

Abriendo el #celsius2025 en jueves tenemos la mesa de @wtalabi.bsky.social presentada por @mangrii.bsky.social En ella hablan de literatura africana en general, el estado del género allí en particular, aderezado con humor y brillantes recomendaciones. Leed a Wole, es adictivo.

I cannot believe I am going to say this but in the evil website of doom, UK version, there are quite a few of Octavia Butler's books for 99p. As a daily deal, if you know what I mean 🤔
Just go and get them all.

We have received Legend of Exorcism, Tianbao Fuyao Lu, by Fei Tian Ye Xiang, slightly early and I am starting my copy as soon as I get home.
I'M SO EXCITEEEEED

Hunchback by Saou Ichikawa trans. Polly Barton
A very interesting, bold and sometimes outrageous book. Hunchback is an extraordinary, thrilling glimpse into the desire and darkness of a woman placed at humanity’s edge. A worthy read if only, to know her point of view.

Bong Joon-Ho said "Once you overcome the one-inch tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films."

As many readers have discovered, the same is true for books! @xuetingni.bsky.social recommends 5 new translated Chinese SFF books!

Me ha hecho un tiempo maravilloso estos días en Oviedo, pero, para que no me malacostumbre, a la que toca volver, caen chuzos de punta.

Esta mañana he cogido el tren en Madrid, coincidiendo con la gente que va a trabajar y me ha sorprendido mucho el contraste con UK en que NADIE llevaba una bebida. Lo raro a esas horas es que nadie lleve un café, te o bebida energética.

I am on holidays at the moment, hence why I am posting less than normal, but I just wanted to wish everyone a happy new year of the Snake 🐍

I went to see Nickel Boys yesterday and fucking hell. I am not a fan of the first person camera view, because I end up mostly dizzy, but the movie itself was absolutely fantastic. Painfull, enraging and unfair but fantastic.

Se que hay mucha gente que prefiere tener un ictus antes de reconocer que quién más y mejor describió lo que está pasando ahora mismo en EEUU fue una mujer negra y feminista, pero es que solo hay que leerla para darse cuente de que otros autores ni se acercaron a lo que ella sí supo ver.

Si sois del "mundillo" de los libros y os gusta tener localizadas a vuestras editoriales de referencia, tengo un pequeño (grande) Starter Pack para que localices en un periquete aquellas que andan por aquí📚

Praying for my fellow booksellers in the US/UK and other places where Onyx Storm is out today.
If you're not a bookseller, friendly reminder, BE NICE TO THEM, is not their fault you didn't get to preorder the super duper special edition. And no, we don't have any in the back. Yes, we have looked.

Happy publication day to the fantastic 🪷Immortal 🪷 by Sue Lynn Tan one of my favourite reads of 2024.
Immortal can be read as a standalone even though it takes place in the same world as her other books and is the perfect mixture of xianxia and romance.
Full review in GR

This is how I am enjoying the end of the year, with brilliant company, because few things are better than a good journey.
The idea for the photo is from @mangrii.bsky.social he's got great ones 😉

I have survived yet another Christmas period in retail, bookselling, and I have celebrated it with a big ass nap in the couch.
More naps tomorrow, maybe interrupted by Die Hard and Wind and Truth. But mainly naps and chill.
Happy holidays!!

I have managed to get my hands on an early copy of The Husky and his White Cat Shizun #7 and the cover is probable one of the best ones so far.

C-dramas animation for the prologue is usually REALLY GOOD but the one for #LoveGameinEasternFantasy I'd absolutely STUNNING.
Now I understand all the hype haha.
