Madeleine Ryan has just written a cracker of a novel. It was brilliant to have a chat with Madeleine last week and pick her brain about how she came to write it and all the other reading / writing topics of course. Enjoy! youtu.be/Uh1XxRnIfk8 @scribepub.bsky.social

Need to get away from it all for a while? Annika Norlin's novel 'Colony' (translated by Alice E. Olsson, courtesy of Scribe Publications) shows the pros and cons of life off-grid ;) tonysreadinglist.wordpress.com/2025/03/04/c...

In 2014, at today’s prices, the equivalent of $53,000,000,000 of Bitcoin (600,000) vanished from a bitcoin exchange in Tokyo—Mt.Gox. It was at the time the largest heist of cryptocurrency in history. And for me, it was the start of a story that I would follow for almost a decade #TheDevilTakesBTC

Even in hell, Bitcoin talks. Revealing THE DEVIL TAKES BITCOIN by @tokyovice.bsky.social. From the author of Tokyo Vice comes the wild, true story of cyber-era commerce, crime, cold-hard cash, & one of the greatest heists in history. 🇦🇺 2 Sep AU+NZ⁠ 🇺🇸 14 Oct US⁠ 🇬🇧 6 Nov UK⁠
