The limited edition of Abraxia: Spear of the Everchosen is out today! Cover art by Valera Lutfullina, treatment by the Black Library team. Words about awful people making each other worse by me.

Autistic burnout is utter bollocks. I am ready to give up on engineering and become a forest dweller. Or I would be if I thought I’d last five minutes with all that nature touching me.
