Read @chasingray.bsky.social’s review of TELL ME MY FUTURE by @eileenruvane.bsky.social: “Ruvane weaves Kess’s visions beautifully into a narrative that is equal parts coming-of-age teen drama and complex mystery.”

I am sure you will agree that Ben Baldwin has given us another magnificent cover for Dan Mackmain’s latest adventure. Dan and Fin are off to Ireland – a trip I know many readers have been keen to see. The Green Man’s Debt will be published by Wizard’s Tower Press on 10th September 2026. #BookSky

Cover art by Ben Baldwin for The Green Man's Debt by Juliet E McKenna. A grey wolf with pale eyes stands in the shadows of a derelict building with a black and white tiled floor. The wolf is looking straight at you. Its snarl reveals blood on its teeth and jaw.

A review of the brutal and funny, Hooked, by Asako Yuzuki. #booksky #reviews

Hooked – a brutal, funny and sad story about female friendship

Asako Yuzuki's Butter was a huge hit here in the UK. For a while it was hard to walk into a bookshop without running into a table with it on. I really enjoyed it and you can find my review here. Again translated by Polly Barton, Hooked is very much adjacent to Butter in terms of its themes - social isolation, expectation and centred on the experience of women.

Next episode of Fantasy Book Swap is messing with the format but not jumping the shark as my guest, screenwriter Tajinder Hayer chose a contemporary book! So I have chosen Michael de Larrabeiti’s brilliantly anarchic The Borribles. You can read more about it here: vector-bsfa.com/2023/12/02/s...

Very nervous about tomorrow’s blog on Patreon so have some out of context quotes from it as a treat 💜

Okay, this time, fandom, if we decide to respond to this episode of Critical Friends let’s do some tidy blog posts or I GUESS some nice quote posts with accompanying threads, if we must. For my health. 😂

🎛️ Crank up the volume, it's Critical Friends! 🏆 Uh-oh, it's some more awards chat. @abigailnussbaum.bsky.social and @amritesh.bsky.social talk to me about the Clarke, the Hugo, the Booker, the Le Guin ... ⁉️ What relationship between critic and award, award and reader? 🤔 Also: marketing. Again.

Roseanna Pendlebury@chloroformtea.bsky.social · 2d ago

I had the now-traditional Clarke Award discussion at NoaF again this year, and (possibly as is clear from the length) had a great time chatting to Dan about all of it. Come for the jokes, stay for the book opinions.

As we were asked, "Why haven't you done one?" I've put together a list of possible genre reads for the Summer. We tried to be light-hearted and fun, then we realised that most of our favourite reads over the last year haven't been! Nevertheless, might be of interest. www.sffworld.com/2026/08/summ...
