Let's go!! Really enjoyed book 1, stoked to see more indie authors getting it done! 190k words... oh my goodness.

🗡️ TITLE REVEAL 🗡️ The sequel to The Crimson Fire is coming. It’s called THE SUNRISE DAGGER 🌅🔥 🔸190k words 🔸6 POVs 🔸More action. More lore. 🔸More betrayal. 🔸And yes, the emotional damage is worse. 🔸Coming early 2026. Cover drops in Sept.

The Devils by Joe Abercrombie may have become my favourite read of 2025. If you're looking for a hilarious, not quite Grimdark fantasy romp—you need to read this. His best writing to date, and a great entry point if you want to start with his books. #booksky #fantasy #fantasybooks

I finally read Empire of Silence and I must say, if you're a fan of classic #scifi IPs like Dune, or modern hits like Red Rising—you will love this book. Probably my favourite read so far of 2025! #booksky

It's been a big week for Indie Fantasy! SPFBO 2024 has crowned a champion, and fellow BookTuber @monteroauthor.bsky.social released his debut epic fantasy novel! If you're a fan of political intrigue, and classic epic fantasy, I highly recommend checking it out! #booksky #indiefantasy #fantasybook

For my #LitRPG fans here on #Booksky if you were a fan of Dungeon Crawler Carl, I highly recommend checking out Discount Dan. Very much feels like a spiritual successor, while still doing its own thing. Full review over on my YT page!

I don't post on socials much but goddamn. Andor? Hello? The best writing and acting since the early seasons of GoT. The subtleties and nuance, the editing, the costumes/set design. Give this show all the Emmys.

It goes without saying. Don't buy courses on how to write books from people who have not written a single successful book. It's 2025, don't fall for grifters.

I absolutely adore how the US Government's complete misunderstanding of TikTok forced a mass exodus of users onto Red Note and now they're all seeing the quality of life of people in China. Like, grats, they're on a much more questionable app AND they get to see how blatant US propaganda is.

Been looking forward to finally doing one of these.
