If you love post-apocalyptic fiction, then do check this out! It's a great read!
For those who've read (and hopefully enjoyed) "Body and Soul" can I ask if you have a moment to pop a review wherever it might matter. Published by @elsewhen.press
In other news: pre-orders for another book I've had in the pipeline for a while will be available from next Friday, so I've been told.

It's Monday, and that means the last post of "A Jam's list to 2026 releases"; where we take a look at releases that I hope to cover (depending on review copies and all).
As a side note, there are more noteworthy titles, but info is kinda scarce.

Just finished Body and Soul by @andrewhook.bsky.social and published by @elsewhen.press.
This is such a beautiful book! Post-apocalyptic sci-fi with a literary bent. I know it will stay with me for a long time.

I'd post a photo if I could but, ironically, technology is uncooperative today! I'm honouring the birthday of Isaac Asimov with a sci-fi read - Embers of War by @garethlpowell.bsky.social.

The final scenes of the TV show of 11/22/63 destroyed me & explain my obsession with Sam Cooke's 'Nothing Can Change This Love'. If you love SF with high stakes, compelling characters & impossible love, all rolled into one, then check out my novel!

💙📚 If you like cutesy timey-wimey books then you’ll hate my novel King Street Run 😬
KSR is an adult fantasy (no, not *that* sort of adult). A satire that takes an irreverent look at life, being working class, and what to do when attacked by gargoyles. And it’s stuffed with easter eggs.
Ta-daaah!

I read Recursion after I finished writing Tomorrow Was Beautiful Once, and loved it! I hear Crouch has a new book coming out soon, so I'm looking forward to that. If you're waiting for his new book, why not try mine in the meantime. 😉📚🪐🎁
