Happy belated bookday to @freyamarske.bsky.social’s CINDER HOUSE, which asks “what if Cinderella were a GHOST” and then proves that that is (literally) a burning question. A perfect book for a rainy afternoon; full of heart, yearning, and love for these wonderful and limited things called bodies.

Happy Bookday to me!

The History of the World is out today - a novella with 4000 years of hard SF shenanigans and socio-political-theological extrapolation crammed between the covers.

“𝑨 𝒇𝒂𝒔𝒕-𝒔𝒑𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒌 𝒐𝒇 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒂𝒔 – 𝒂 21𝒔𝒕 𝑪𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒚 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒂 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒂 𝑮𝒐𝒍𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝑨𝒈𝒆 𝒈𝒍𝒐𝒘.” – Ken MacLeod

The cover of The History of the World by Simon Morden, published by Newcon Press. The cover is mainly black, with a total eclipse at its centre.
