Save the date! On Sept 10, 7-9pm, join us for the launch of Wendy Waring's THE HUNGER OF THOSE WHO BUILT IT. In honour of this debut Parisian eco-thriller we'll have a reading, great conversation, and free refreshments hosted by The City & The City Books in Hamilton. See you there!

Our online release of IT WAS PARADISE is now complete, and print preorders are en route! Thanks so much to editor @soniasulaiman.bsky.social, everybody on Reckoning staff who worked long and hard to make this happen, and to ARLA for sponsoring it! What an educational experience this has been

The last Stelliform book I bought featured ammonite-inspired flying robots forming a union and rewilding San Francisco and it was great. So if they’re calling this their weirdest little book yet…color me intrigued

#booksky 💙📚 This book is wildly inventive world building and unique characters. When Heap was described I pictured the burlap-covered dolls of the movie '9' by Tim Burton. The world building is fantastic, with an omnipotent and invasive 'Root' and worshipers of 'You'.

I spoke to an Ingram rep about this and it is, unfortunately, a real thing that they are forcing us all to do. Shit like this shouldn't be "opt out" and if you just happen to miss the notice the machines eat your art 🤬

WRITER FRIENDS: if you distribute books using INGRAM SPARK you *need* to fill out this opt-out form so they don't sell your books to AI corps to rip apart and feed to their machine for training AI.

The Wetworks Miracle is out next week! It's a quick and brutal read, a delightful mix of weird horror, biopunk, and portal fantasy. If you're curious about one of the weirdest books we've ever published, check out this review from Chasing Shadows: catchingshadows67297...

So, my solarpunk anti-capitalist sister-rivalry queer-heroine debut novel has been pre-reviewed by @publisherswkly.bsky.social. Which makes my heart sing... "Waring's thought-provoking debut ... is sure to linger in readers' minds" went straight to book design for the cover.

Publishers Weekly has released a nice review for THE HUNGER OF THOSE WHO BUILT IT, which is Wendy Waring's literary solarpunk novel coming in September. It's solarpunk but make it darker - think Emily St. John Mandel x Kim Stanley Robinson in a gritty future Paris. www.publishersweekly...

I'm moderating a panel on "The Bog Body Motif in Trans SFF" at ReaderCon, and making a list of stories. "Frequently Asked Questions About the Dead Woman Beneath Sang-D’Heloise Subway Station" by Ann LeBlanc in Baffling "An Extraplanetary Capsule Lands in a Bog in Winter" by R.J. Thedore in L.M.

This is a very important read for authors, editors, publishers, or anyone who wants to know more about the state of the industry in the face of the AI onslaught. @bonabooks.bsky.social has done an amazing job documenting their experience and their response and we can all learn from it.

AI fraud nearly derailed our next anthology. Today we’re talking about what went down, the things we missed, and publishing the report we wish we’d had when it happened. Read all about it on our new blog, and download the full report:

THE WETWORKS MIRACLE is out at the end of the month there's still time to get your order in! "The Wetworks Miracle is ... a dazzling, dreadful plunge into ... terrors of the sort that one might find in a China Miéville novel or a film by Guillermo Del Toro." - E.G. Condé, author of Sordidez.

To be clear, @tkrex.bsky.social's The Wildcraft Drones (@stelliform.press) is ABSOLUTELY my favorite book to squawk about this year.
