Super happy to share the cover illustration of S.T. Gibson's upcoming urban fantasy book 'Evocation', that I did for Angry Robot Books! 🔮
The fantastic outer frame and all design is by the lovely Alice Claire Coleman! Very grateful to Alice and the rest of the team for the opportunity!
As you can probably tell, the main inspiration was the Hanged Man tarot card (from the Rider–Waite–Smith deck), which was a challenge in the best of ways!

I read this book back in August and it was a fun time and I forgot to write my review for it. So here it is! This book was called Bluebird by Ciel Pierlot. Synopsis: Three factions vie for control of the galaxy. Rig, a gunslinging, thieving, rebel with a cause, doesn’t give a damn about them and she hasn’t looked back since abandoning her faction three years ago. That is, until her former…

"It feels like . . . a memory. Like something I've forgotten. What do you do if you've forgotten all you know?" Dad opened his eyes. He was silent for a moment, as if carefully choosing his words. "You start again from the beginning."

I'd like to file a complaint against author Becky Chambers for writing stand alone novels about characters achieving a sense of peace and purpose and belonging and then ending them before we get to see more than a scene or two of them enjoying it

'Captain Moxley and the Embers of the Empire' Book Review By Ron Fortier
New Post has been published on http://esonetwork.com/captain-moxley-and-the-embers-of-the-empire-book-review-by-ron-fortier/
'Captain Moxley and the Embers of the Empire' Book Review By Ron Fortier
CAPTAIN MOXLEY and the Embers of the Empire By Dan Hanks Angry Robot 375 pgs
One look at artist Daniel Strange’s collage cover and you would expect to read a rollicking, over-the-top action-packed pulp adventure. Sadly, often times as the old saw tells us, you can’t judge a book by its cover. In this rare and wonderful instance, you most bloody well can. “Captain Moxley and the Embers of Empire” is pretty much everything a good solid new pulp tale should be. It has a great protagonist, a wonderful supporting cast, and some truly weird and deadly villains. And it all takes place on an alternate earth not our own.
Wow, that’s a lot of good stuff. Indeed it is, and Hanks pulls it off beautifully. In this “other” earth, World War II has ended and former British fighter pilot, Samantha (Sam to family and friends) is in New York City to find her sister Jess who she believes has been kidnapped by a secret cabal known as the Nine. She was once one of their agents, but soon realized they were corrupt and left their ranks. Something they frown upon very badly.
As it turns out, Sam finds her sister busy at work on a new exhibition at the Natural Museum of Science in Manhattan. Jess is an archeologist, and along with her colleague and boyfriend, Will, is about to put on display an ancient artifact the Nine want. Sam arrives in the nick of time, fouls the attempted kidnapping/robbery, and then is off to Paris, along with Jess and Will, to contact Professor Edward “Teddy” Ascher, a former flying pal of French/Arab descent and leading expert on the Hall of Records, a supposed lost depository of the world’s accumulated knowledge hidden beneath the sands of Egypt.
It is Sam’s belief that the Nine’s primary goal is to find the hidden library because among its many wonders is a power source of unbelievable strength that would allow them to become masters of the world. Teddy proceeds to tell her aside from the amulet Jess has in her possession, there remains one other artifact, a key, supposedly hidden in the catacombs beneath Paris. Without it, the amulet is useless. Needless to say, Sam and her team of three soon find themselves racing against their enemies under the city streets to find that lost key.
If all this echoes the Indiana Jones movies, it is because Dan Hanks blatantly lists those films and many others, including pulps and comics, as his inspirations for writing this bold, in-your-face adventure. It is a fast-paced page-turner with so much action as to leave the reader for breath by its climatic finale. Oh, and as if that wasn’t enough to satiate your need for pulp thrills, the ending fades out with the obvious intent of a sequel. One we cannot wait to get our hands on. “Captain Moxley and the Embers of Empire” is a hoot, pulp fans. We found it at Amazon. You should pick it up now. Don’t wait another minute.

Speculative fiction/fantasy/sci-fi: some random titles – pt 1
This year, 2022, has been a book featuring a lot of very interesting new authors and the closure of some series I loved. For every title the link to Goodreads
How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu (Bloomsbury Publishing Plc (UK & ANZ) is a heart-wrenching, thought provoking and well written book about a world suffering by a deadly pandemia. Something worse than COVID and more ancient. There’s a lot of story of different people and at least one made me cried bucked. A mix of literary and speculative fiction
One Foot in the Fade by Luke Arnold (Orbit) This series never disappointed and I love the atmosphere that mixes noir and fantasy. I always hope there’s going to be more. It was a great series.
The Ballad of Perilous Graves by Alex Jennings (Orbit) I think this was the best debut in 2022: an exciting story set in New Orleans that I couldn’t put down. Can’t wait to read other books by this author
The Stardust Thief by Chelsea Abdullah (Orbit) A great story based on Middle East lore. Love it since the beginning and can’t wait for the next one
Locklands by Robert Jackson Bennett (Jo Fletcher Books) The last of the Foundryside saga. An epic ending to a great series
Babel by R.F. Kuang (HarperVoyager) Rebecca Kuang can develop complex plot that are both entertaining and thought provoking. Babel is historical fiction, fantasy and a critic view of colonialism.
Stringers by Panatier, Chris (Angry Robot) Silver Queendom by Dan Koboldt (Angry Robot) Demon Hunting with a Southern Sheriff by Lexi George (Kensington Books) I had a lot of fun in reading them. Highly recommended
Half a Soul by Olivia Atwater (Orbit) A lovely series that mixes Regency romance, fairy world, and fantasy. Loved it, highly entertaining
Siren Queen by Nghi Vo (Tordotcom) Nighi Vo does a great job in mixing East and West delivering intriguing story. This one was great as the rest of the series

He climbed onto the table next to Hap, curling against him, making himself as small as he could. Hap was cold, skin like ice, but Vic didn't mind. He pulled the sheet back over them and lay his head on Hap's shoulder. "I walked through the woods today," he whispered. "And I turned to point out a bird in the trees, but you weren't there." Hap didn't reply. Vic stayed there until morning when the winter sun began rising as it always did.
