My 50 books of the year.
Moral of the book: Eating people is a sign something is wrong with you. Also, bees. It's about time someone said it. Don't know why, but this one gave me inklings of Michael Moorcock in style. Very cool read from @caitlinstarling.com.

I think the hardest type of book to write is one headed to a specific destination. So, if anyone is going to do hell, it needed to be @rfkuang.bsky.social. I'm a peasant and my education was dogshit, so I don't get all the Cambridge particulars, but loved it. www.amazon.com/Katabasis-No...

No one told me that @tkingfisher.com did another Sworn Soldier book, this time in my home state of West Virginia. I goddamn love these books and I'll buy every single one until one of us is dead, and I hope I go first because Pratchett really screwed me on that. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

Sometimes sentences punch you in the gut for no reason. "She sang a song with no words to herself as she dug a hole." Bleak but beautiful sci-fi from Nnedi Okorafor.

None of you told me about Michael Moorcock. Hm? Do you feel good about that? A story about Lucifer sending a damned 16th century soldier to find the Holy Grail who ends up learning humanist morals? Didn't think I needed to know? Hm? Nothing to say for yourself? Just going to sit there? Fine.

The first was hard sci-fi spiders, the second a zombie space horror with octopuses, and this one's a bleak interplanetary fairy tale with birds. I'm guessing the next one is time traveling noir thriller with capybaras.

Hot damn. I don't think I've ever read a book that understands hate so well - proper hate. Not internet hate. Real hate. Remember kids, pacifism kills. Not sure if that's the moral, but I'm angry these days. Props to @premeemohamed.com for another banger.

Robots up the holler. This new book from @erinkwagner.bsky.social is an important reminder that science and the future happen everwhere. As someone from West Virginia whose kin was killed by a chemical company, I can tell you for certain it matters.
