Ian Mond, Locus: Slatter is a tremendous writer, with a body of work that puts her in the top echelon of contemporary fantasy authors. With AFD, she’s elevated those skills to another level giving us a work that isn’t just a cracking story richly told, but also connects at a personal intimate level.

a great read, and on sale this month!

Oh, hai. All the Murmuring Bones will be $1.99 on Kindle US for the whole of March! Just saying...

It's a terrible life...

Expectations, he haz them...

Making notes for the next Sourdough novel, The Scarred Queen...

Stayed up very late, got to halfway, had to sleep, now back at this book. Defs a 5 ⭐

In the mail. Already a quarter through, very pacy, much fear, very creepy. By @neilsharpson on recommendation of @sineadhannacraic 👍👍

Have had some incredible luck lately with short fiction/new-to-me authors (bless the library). I read The Cold House by @angelaslatter.bsky.social in one sitting last night. Fantastic writing, and holy hell, did NOT see that ending coming!

... @tugcekutlu.bsky.social explores grief & not letting the dead die in Talk to Me @nighttidemag.bsky.social, Theresa B finds hope among the horror in The Long Walk @whatsleepsbeneath.com, and @gnofhorror.com sit down for an author interview with @angelaslatter.bsky.social! Happy reading, friends👻

In the mail because apparently I can't stop reading about vampires.

Under the heading of "Just saying"... The Sourdough Compendium is now on NetGalley... This chonky, chonky book will be published in June this year, after which it'll curl on your lap like a big old cat, purring and warming and occasionally biting you because: cat.

Finally!! Very excited to read this @mejaneh 💚💚💚

Reviewed A.G. Slatter’s ‘A Forest, Darkly.’ A dark, atmospheric witch tale with a standout older heroine. More than just a fantasy, it’s about found family and survival. #AGSlatter #DarkFantasy #BookReview @angelaslatter.bsky.social @titanbooks.bsky.social gnofhorror.com/a-forest-dar...
