Jesus fuck

Can’t believe his Kickstarter is over 4m

[Souj]

It hit 4 mil in like the first 12 hours. It’s up to 5 now, with 27 days left.

It probably won’t increase too much now, though. Most the people who’d spend the kind of money on this are the super fans who would instantly jump on it. Still, Jesus fuck indeed.

Just a reminder that the latest Dresden files book came out today. You might want to wait until September when the next part comes out though as it ends on a cliffhanger.

[Souj]

I typically wait for the paperback releases for Dresden files for conformity’s sake. I’ll probably pick these 2 next two up on ebook though earlier than that. Rereading the series right now. Just finished White Night and took a break to read A Little Bit of Hatred. Once I get through the rest of the series I’ll see how long a wait for the paperback.

Well that explains the long gap between books, it was two to dump at once.

In the mean time, I wasn't paying attention, and it seems Neal Stephenson had a book come out last year, a continuation of REAMDE and Cryptonomicon.
Damn, chapter 13.

Also a divorce among other shitty life events for Butcher.

The author of Mother of Learning has put 4 candidates for their next work up on their patreon.

Also, I finished Stephenson's Fall; or, Dodge in Hell. I think it's his weakest work, and I've read The Big U (though I have not read D.O.D.O.). If you did not like Reamde and Seveneves, you're not going to like this one.

Boyne needs a new editor/publisher.

Just finished the Temeraire series by Naomi Novik. Went on a few books too long but an enjoyable concept and read for the most part.

Went into a Barnes and Noble today and saw they actually separated fantasy and sci fi genres

Starting Brian McClellan's Sins of the Empire trilogy. I really liked his Powder Mage trilogy so looking forward to this.

[Odesseiron]

I have honestly never laughed so hard at a book in my entire life. I had to stop at one point because my stomach hurt and my eyes were tearing. It's a gem.

For you 40k fans, the Fabius Bile series by Josh Reynolds is better than it has any right to be. Check 'em out.

You probably don’t know, unless you play the tabletop/read the codexes, but does is cover what’s in the War of the Spider codex- Bile stealing the big Death Guard Mcguffin?
