🦅🐎⚔️ New Review! ⚔️🐎🦅 The Harpy Knight by Sara Omer from @titanbooks.bsky.social "...an even darker, bloodier, and more intense sequel... Omer twists the vice on our central characters and their pain is red hot agony, but you can’t look away. As sequels go, this one is searingly sensational."
REVIEW: The Harpy Knight by Sara Omer
The Harpy Knight is somehow an even darker, bloodier, and more intense sequel, where the stakes are even higher and the moral ambiguity is even vaguer, all wrapped up in an astonishingly realised worl...

I'm splitting up my posts about 2026 LGBTQ fantasy because there are so many releases each month, so here is the July bunch. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Book lists in ALT text. #fantasybooks #lgbtqfantasy #fantasy2026 #2026publication #lgbtqbooks #bookpost #bookrecs #postseries #booksky #books
New commission! I am thrilled with how this came out, and it was my first time drawing a sickle blade of this sort. Would you like a fantasy or sci fi weapon commission? They are a flat $50, so please let me know! I am always taking reservations!
My toxic yuri short story about a world without death and a rotting lady knight and the evil necromancer nun-turned queen she is devoted to (and a lycanthrope stuck in canine form) is the first story in Issue 10 of Old Moon Quarterly… with art! My heart.

Me resolving to read more little books (indie books and read books with less than 1000 reviews) because we cannot let books just disappear! I don’t wanna miss a great book, and popular books will always be available! Yes, I am sort of fishing for recs (put them down below)
I heard you want to read a dark, epic Southwest Asian-inspired fantasy with the political intrigue of A Song of Ice and Fire, epic battles of The Poppy Wars, and sapphic yearning of Priory of the Orange Tree, inspired by the Ottoman Empire and Turkic tribes, with a sisterhood of lady knights
Very excited to share the tiny story in this issue!
Intrigued by the cover? This issue will be released over the month on the website, but you can read it all RIGHT NOW by buying an issue, or even better yet, by getting a monthly subscription so you're always ahead of the rush! store.smallwondersma...
What’s this?? Now on NetGalley? (Reading The Gryphon King first is definitely recommended but I can’t deny a bit of chaos)

It's Knight Time; fealty, love, and a whole lot of swords. Some of these aren't your typical knights, but they protect their charges or kingdom with their lives regardless, and honor their oaths. (1/2)

If you’d like to read a dark, epic Southwest Asian-inspired fantasy with political intrigue and messiness like A Song of Ice and Fire and the fighting and horror of The Poppy War, inspired by the Ottoman Empire and Turkic tribes WITH LADY KNIGHTS who have lady love interests…

Thanks to Rex for spotting this one! Necropolis contains 5 stories about strange, decaying cities and is now available for purchase at Hexagon's patreon! @alexfox.bsky.social @omersarae.bsky.social @nightgleaming.bsky.social @improbablerex.bsky.social and Victoria! cover art by @warls.bsky.social
Just noticed that Hexagon's MYRIAD zine series is now available for purchase as individual ebooks at $4 a pop. I wrote a weird little thing for the Necropolis volume edited by @rlsummerling.bsky.social, but you can't go wrong with any issue. www.patreon.com/posts/946670...
