Love when people love the series!

The Pocahontas and John smith verse from "Fever" takes on new meaning when you consider the English brought small pox to America.

Always fun when the second one gets love!

Does anybody know of any sci-fi podcasts that focus exclusively on craft, i.e. the writing itself, not publishing or the business side. Please repost for reach! I'm trying to see something.

I just heard someone on the radio say that the craziest thing they've seen on social media all week is a woman eating spaghetti out of her kitchen sink, and I would like a tour of the rock this person has been living under.

Soup for Chono!

And to kick-off the year, a short review on This Brutal Moon, the third and final book in the Kindom Trilogy, written by @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social, the cherry on top of an excellent political space opera. Full thoughts: jamreads.com/reviews/this... 💙📚

Ren is the best! Read her books!

We asked @voidcricket.bsky.social for her best books of 2025, the book she'd love for Xmas & her anticipated reads of 2026. Read on https://geni.us/SolarisBks2025 to find out why she picked @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social @jvawrites.bsky.social & more! https://geni.us/9BMN4 https://geni.us/unbrw

I started reading "This Brutal Moon" by @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social. I have been waiting for this since I finished the second book. I am at the start, but I have to say two things: it was very easy to get back into the world of the Kindom, and the stakes are high! I am enjoying the book.

So flattered by this beautiful review!

Reposting for reference - so many good books I missed this year (Current read: This Brutal Moon, @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social - love this trilogy!!)

This was so fun!

After literal decades of fearing that I would never be published, today marks the publication of This Brutal Moon, the final book in the Kindom Trilogy! I hope you love it as much as I do! @orbitbooks.bsky.social @awfulagent.bsky.social #thisbrutalmoon #thekindomtrilogy

Back from Les Utopiales Festival in France! Ate incredible pastries, met readers who lifted my heart, and sat on panels exploring disability, gender, and identity. So many warm, passionate writers, artists and fans. Thank you J'ai Lu Editions for making it happen! America, we need more French SFF!

These Burning Stars by @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social! My favorite book of the past few years. Don't really understand why it's not on everyone's lips all the time. Sequel good too, finale due out soon.

The Kindom trilogy by @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social  concludes with This Brutal Moon, which comes out this December. This is hands down one of the best SF series I've read in the last 10 years. If you haven't read the first two yet, what are you waiting for?! @orbitbooks.bsky.social

Hi everyone. Looking for recs on books about #livingwithdisability. My sister is recently disabled with neuro issues. This may be chronic or permanent. I would love to find her accessible own voices to help her process her grief, anger, and fear. Any ideas?

This thread is so fucking important.

The amazing @voidcricket.bsky.social's sophomore novel AN UNBREAKABLE WORLD is out now. I was honored to get to read an advanced copy, and if you love a world that feels historically rich, complex and messy and lived in, as well as heist plots and multiple timelines, you gotta get it.

Thanks so much to these amazing authors!💫 @unamccormack.bsky.social @kbwagers.com @essahansen.bsky.social @katemurray.bsky.social @khanwong.bsky.social @taranhunt.bsky.social @clairewinn.bsky.social @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social @rebeccafraimow.bsky.social @garethlpowell.bsky.social

@voidcricket.bsky.social's excellent and ✨orange bannered✨ UNDER FORTUNATE STARS is on sale for 99c! Get yours now and preorder the sequel, AN UNBREAKABLE WORLD!

This has been absolutely worth the wait from @inkstonebooks.bsky.social I really enjoyed the first book in The Kindom Trilogy. And it’s awesome that book 3 is slated for December. #BookSky #BookMail @dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social

@dr-bethany-jacobs.bsky.social talking about the importance of broader action towards justice, beyond the importance of writing stories that reflect truth Oh shit I missed an I in publish lol

Currently in a circle of hell called Verizon chat support.

One thing you can do Right Now is be extremely vocal when you have librarians stocking inclusive collections. Call and tell them how happy you are, show up to board meetings. Bc the other side is *always* complaining and doing it in an organized way. also you can donate to Lavonnia Moore here:

You may not be aware but my books are full of murderous queers. Pick one up on this last day of Pride Month! share.google/3L4dvNg9hRDr... @orbitbooks.bsky.social @awfulagent.bsky.social

I'm not going to lie, Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by V.E. Schwab fucked me up. The last act is haunting me.

Overall a very shitty day interspersed with not completely shitty things.

OP is right. Tell authors when you love their work. It may be the thing that keeps them writing. Thank you @archnemesisg.bsky.social!
