To be honest, I was scared for a moment that Amon would be called Monette in all of book 2.

Book 1’s villain: Amon.

Book 2’s villain: Monette. (This is the same person.)

It would feel strange….

SONG OF THE WEEK: "People Medley: Everyday People + Fishers of Men + One for the Pastor” https://johnnyjblairsingeratlarge.bandcamp.com/track/people-medley-everyday-people-fishers-of-men-one-for-the-pastor-2  ...I share this in advance of Juneteenth, falling this weekend on Sunday the 19th (if you don’t know about Juneteeth I encourage you to look it up). Sly Stone wrote “Everyday People” as a plea, proclaiming "I am everyday people" to mean that everyone (band member and audience) should consider themselves as parts of a whole, not of smaller, specialized factions. Rose Stone (Sly’s sister) sings the bridge sections (using the cadence of a children's taunt) that mock the futility of people hating each other for being tall, short, rich, poor, fat, skinny, white, black, red, yellow “…and so on and scooby dooby dooby.”

I recorded this in 2000 with a “funk/soul academy” of contributors, including drummer Jab’O Starks, best known for his years with James Brown. He was a prince to work with. I was honored to play 4 gigs with “dueling drummers” Jab’O + Clyde Stubblefield, billed as James Brown’s Funkmasters. During dinners with both men, I soaked up their “war stories” about music, the Chiltlin’ Circuit, and “making it” during the days of segregation. There are many more “back stories” behind this track... 

Personnel:

Pistol Allen: congas

JJB: bass, guitars, keyboards, percussion, lead & harmony vocals

Cassie Blair & Linda Wheatley: harmony vocals

Sir Henry Gibson: percussion

Frank Hakava: bass

Monette Newsuan: harmony vocals, rap, & lyrics on “One For The Pastor”

Jaim Rohm: guitar

Jab'O Starks: drums, shout outs Carl Stevens: saxophone

Pastor Sidney D. Wheatley; shout outs

Tim Breon & Bil Bryant: recording & mixing

The Tomb of Dragons by Katherine Addison to release on 11 March 2025

The end of Sarah Monette/Katherine Addison's The Cemeteries of Amalo trilogy, a spin-off of The Goblin Emperor (together known as The Chronicles of Osreth) has been listed as releasing on 11 March 2025, and there's now a summary:

"Thara Celehar has lost his ability to speak with the dead. When that title of Witness for the Dead is gone, what defines him?

While his title may be gone, his duties are not. Celehar contends with a municipal cemetery with fifty years of secrets, the damage of a revethavar he’s terrified to remember, and a group of miners who are more than willing to trade Celehar’s life for a chance at what they feel they’re owed.

Celehar does not have to face these impossible tasks alone. Joining him are his mentee Velhiro Tomasaran, still finding her footing with the investigative nature of their job; Iäna Pel-Thenhior, his beloved opera director friend and avid supporter; and the valiant guard captain Hanu Olgarezh.

Amidst the backdrop of a murder and a brewing political uprising, Celehar must seek justice for those who cannot find it themselves under a tense political system. The repercussions of his quest are never as simple they seem, and Celehar’s own life and happiness hang in the balance."

The transition from Doctrine of Labyrinths to Goblin Emperor and Cemetery of Amalo is so funny to me. The editors were like, "Sarah, you're so smart, you're so talented, but your branding is off; we want you to change your name to reflect the new you and leave behind all the incest graphic rape, and unlikable (affectionate) protagonists." And Katherine looked them straight in the eyes and was like "okay, sounds good, but you will pry my ritualistic mazes and fancy earrings from my cold dead hands." Love her.

#katherine addison #sarah monette #doctrine of labyrinths #the goblin emperor #the cemeteries of amalo #it's just amazing the books are so differently tonally but when you read them you can tell “oh the author included this because she thinks #it's cool as shit“ in both books #and she's right #it is #obligatory acknowledgement that I don't actually know why she changed her name and this is a facetious post

Azalin Reviews: Captain Alain Monette

Domain: L'ile de La Tempete Domain Formation: 677 BC Power Level:💀⚫⚫⚫⚫ Source: Darklords (2e)

Captain, or I should say former Captain, Alain Monette is yet another sea captain Darklord that enjoyed abusing his crew for the tiniest of transgressions. Very much like our would be navigator, Captain Pieter van Riese.

I’m not sure why so many Captains are like this as it leaves them with no allies when the inevitable mutiny occurs. So, it should come as no surprise that this 7 foot tall, rail-thin abusive Captain was overthrown by his crew. Without getting into the gory details, they strung him up and tortured him for hours before tossing his, somehow still living, body into the sea.

He was taken by the Mists then and found himself, nearly dead and unable to move, within a sea cave on the island L’ile de la Tempête. The sea cave was overpopulated by bats that feasted on Monette’s flesh and blood each night. In turn, Monette fed on the bats during the day in an attempt to regain his strength. You know, outside of Ravenloft, most bats feed on insects and fruit, which is why I will almost always insult vampires by calling them ticks or fleas over bats. I digress... This circular feeding transformed Monette into a werebat. Quite an unique way to obtain the curse of lycanthropy and something I must attempt to replicate in the future. Monette has attempted to leave his little island many times as he desires nothing more than to explore the seas and be within the company of others. If that was the case, you think he would have been a little kinder to others? Our tormentors, ever petty, keep him from ever making it very far before he grows tired and turns around. What a pathetic quitter this one is.

He has no control over his lycanthropy and his change is linked to the tides. Every day, at high tide, he becomes a werebat. He is driven by his hunger for human flesh and blood, so he built a lighthouse on his island to lure travelers there. He calls it the “Eye of Midnight” and placed a skull enchanted with a continual light spell atop the structure. Which is, I admit, rather ingenious if not simplistic. Though where he obtained the skull...I suppose since he lacks the intellect to cast spells himself, it was likely a “gift” from the Dark Powers.

His island is surrounded by jagged cliffs, so any sailors foolish enough to be drawn in by his light are more likely than not to have their vessel crash and sink. Monette sometimes appears to these ship wrecked individuals as a man, if the timing is right, to enjoy their company for a while...until his hunger overcomes him, anyway.

A werebat that became such through circular bat eating that has no control over his form. A captain forever trapped on an island without a ship. 0.5 skulls and I am being generous.

SONG OF THE WEEK “All Things Are Possible” https://johnnyjblairsingeratlarge.bandcamp.com/track/all-things-are-possible

 …to those who believe… On this one I went into a dance-techno groove, with words about rising above adversity and naysayers. The music came to me one night after listening to St. Etienne, a London-based group that combines retro-soul and Europop with dance club culture. Their song “Nothing Can Stop Us Now” inspired me to write this song, imagining Donna Summer singing a STAR TREK soundtrack with Weather Report as the backing band + Brian Auger on organ solo. The steller vocal improvs are by gospel singer Monette Newsuan (track mixed by Tim Breon).
