Samantha Shannon really did luck out with her cover designer. Ivan Belikov does amazing work. And kudos to the @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social for the fire sprayed edges on these. Among the Burning Flowers arrived today, can’t wait to read it.

This gorgeous edition of @zamakhtar.bsky.social’s second entry in the Gunmetal Gods saga arrived today, and it feels as good as it looks. Props to Zamil for running such well crafted Kickstarter campaigns, from the quality to the swift delivery. And already backed the next ;)

This gorgeous beast is finally here. Salvatore is the man, and @wraithmarked.bsky.social did a stellar job with this edition - all the bells and whistles are here.

I also want to shout out their customer service - an absolute joy to deal with.

It gives the same rage baiting vibes of when someone who you know knows you goes: “Nice to meet you.”

Miguel Peck @miguelpeck.bsky.social · 1d

And by the way, I can’t wait for Lives of Bitter Rain. Short as it was, The Heart of the Reproach was one of my best reads so far this year. Just beautiful.

Miguel Peck @miguelpeck.bsky.social · 1d

Exclusive from them. Can still get quite a few from their website, but you’d have to hunt eBay and the like for the earlier volumes.

Miguel Peck @miguelpeck.bsky.social · 1d

Nah, they’re all there ;) the light’s just hitting the mylar. And yeah, some of them took a while to hunt ;)

The @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social smashed it with Shadows of the Apt. Complete! Now to place them in the Adrian Tchaikovsky shelves. Yup - it’s just Tchaikovsky works - including the published anthologies. I think I’m only missing 4 or 5, but @aptshadow.bsky.social can be the judge ;)

Not a bad way to start a week off.

Ah, here we go!

I think A Tide of Black Steel was my favourite Anthony Ryan so far. Stoked for the sequel.

This was a good day. Interviewed @jeremyszal.bsky.social at our Sydney SFF book club event at @galaxybookshop.bsky.social where people had a fresh excuse to buy #Alchemised ;) Love that I now own a Szal signed copy. And hey, if you like Alchemised, give Stormblood a try ;)

Miguel Peck @miguelpeck.bsky.social · 4d

Wonderful to see @blackcrowbooks.bsky.social in the wild.

Glad it’s here, cuz it need never end :)

The Court of the Dead - slotted in for an immediate October read.

A read from earlier in the year: The Eyes are the Best Part by Monika Kim.

This was absolutely delectable.

Can’t wait for the movie.

One of my planned reads for October: a stunning edition of Metallic Realms by @thelincoln.bsky.social.

OwlCrate did a fantastic job with this.

This was a great palate cleanser. Had been looking forward to another Novik since finishing Spinning Silver. This hit the spot.

Now back to Shadows Upon Time :)

A banner #BookMail week, that’s for sure. The Broken Binding continuing to outdo themselves. Props to Rene Aigner and Peng Lu for the awesome art.

They all look so good together.

Medea by Rosie Hewlett was great. Stoked to read her take on Medusa next :)

One of my most anticipated reads of the quarter is Patrick Ryan’s Buckeye.

Miguel Peck @miguelpeck.bsky.social · 16d

Ain’t gonna lie, this is a special one. Not just the care that’s been put into this edition by the @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social, but the fact that it’s also one of my fave current series just makes it all sweeter.

Stellar work all around.
