Fascinating review! I promptly bought the book for my e-reader...
Today at @nerdsofafeather.bsky.social I reviewed The Wolf and his King by Finn Longman. It's a gorgeously prosey retelling of Bisclavret, and one that feels deeply embedded in the stories of its 12th century inspiration.

The was the most talk about faith I have seen in a film for 20 years.
I was amazed and pleased.

Three minutes into Wake Up Dead Man Josh O’Connor has a speech about what he thinks faith should be and it made both @margueritekenner.bsky.social and I, both as ‘ex’ Catholics as it’s possible to be, go ‘ohhhhhh fuck yeah. That’s it.’

I worked fulltime in demanding jobs (HR then tech writing), but that enabled me to accumulate enough super so I could retire at 55. I live on my pension now.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

Anyway I think part of why Master and Commander is so great (on top of the source material and the casting) is that even though Weir was shooting an action movie, he wasn’t afraid to leave a lot of languid “hey, doesn’t this just *look*cool?” moments in it
