RT @JHillAuthor: 'One of my favourite Imperial Guard stories, and the only downside is that it’s a short story and not a full-length novel.….

For me, I'm not sure yet on either question. What I do know though, is that any new Chris Wraight book is something to celebrate!.

So the next big #BlackLibrary series is going to be The Scouring. What's everyone's thoughts on this overall - interested? Excited? Burned out after the Siege?. And for those who are keen on The Scouring, are you going to collect the whole series in physical formats?

Well I never. Check out the Black Library logo on the promo image for the upcoming Warhammer preview - that’s a very welcome inclusion! I wonder what’s going to be announced…

This year’s birthday book haul - although I did, admittedly, buy several of these for myself. They still count!

Thanks so much to Grace for chatting to me, and to Frances at Verve for arranging the interview!.

Today's interview is with @gracechanwrites discussing her fantastic debut EVERY VERSION OF YOU, which is out now from @VERVE_Books! Near-future Australian SF exploring digital identity and authenticity (and loads more), it's a fab book - and I loved chatting to Grace about it!

Thanks so much to the kind folks at @dawbooks and @WunderElena for sending me this beautiful copy of WEARING THE LION by @Wiswell! It arrived this morning just as I finished my previous book; perfect timing :) Been looking forward to this!

I mean. look at that cover art! So cool. I loved contributing to issue 1, and there *might* be a little something from me in an upcoming issue too :).

Issue 2 of SECRET PASSAGES is fully funded on Kickstarter - hurrah! If you want to get in on the second issue of this great new zine - all about old-school tabletop games & RPGs - you've got time, as there's still 15 days to go. Check it out!.

RT for the later crowd.

ESPERANCE by Adam Oyebanji is out now from @arcadia_books, and it's brilliant! In today's author interview was delighted to chat to Adam about this intriguing SF mystery, its characters, the challenges of blending genres, and loads more!.

I’ve been absent on socials for a while, haven’t had the headspace for it. I’ve got a fab author interview to post tomorrow though, discussing a fantastic new SF mystery, so do come back to read that! . In the meantime here’s a small mountain of recent or (mostly) upcoming reads.

And for #BlackLibrary fans, a whopping 5 years ago today I posted my review of INFERNO! VOLUME 5. Frankly, I'd forgotten how good this anthology was - some cracking stories in there!.

A year ago today I posted this interview with author @Wiswell, chatting about his intriguing fantasy novel SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN! I've got to say, as a character Shesheshen has really stuck with me, so it was fun to go back and reread this.

RT for the later crowd, in case you missed it this morning - check out my latest Rapid Fire author interview, with David Guymer chatting about VERMINSLAYER!.

@WarlordGuymer Here's the interview:.

I had a blast chatting to @WarlordGuymer about VERMINSLAYER, the latest #AgeOfSigmar Gotrek Gurnisson novel from #BlackLibrary! We covered all the important questions: what it's like returning to writing Gotrek, who's the new companion, and why skaven make the best antagonists!

Had a brilliant time at #Salute52 today - one of the best Salutes I’ve been to. Went into the day thinking I probably wouldn’t buy anything…but then I hit the Rogue Hobbies stand and couldn’t resist the temptation!

Dug these out today. Pure, unfiltered hobby nostalgia! Anyone else spend hours looking at these back in the day?
