The Raven Tower by @ann_leckie - Weird, inventive and written with a deceptive simplicity. I would have liked a bit of an epilogue, but very much enjoyed it.

Can't recommend this book enough!
"An enchanting Dickensian tale blended with Ancient Greek myth where ... the narrative glides from the dirty riverbank and dark alleys of London to the depths of legend, the Labyrinth and figures of myth"

It's Once a Monster day. Thanks to everyone who's supported the book so far! If you ever wanted to read the story of the Minotaur in the backstreets of Victorian London, your boat just came in...
Tim Major’s books include Snakeskins, Hope Island, and three Sherlock Holmes novels. His latest novel Jekyll & Hyde: Consulting Detectives will be published in 2024.

Using actual pen and paper for the first time in about 23 years, I have just completed a (rough) first draft. It took about four months, and it's probably tripe - but its done. #whoop#yeah#alright
Let me try that again - (Not my photo - image credit Thibaud Aronson )
3/2/23 - Black tailed Godwit on the mudflat outside the Post Office on St. Peter's street. Never seen one of these before.
Gods and Monsters bless @Humber_SFF for the first such event I've attended in years. It is lovely to connect once again. And thanks to @dedbutdrmng and @SteveAryan for scrambling my brains a bit. I needed that.
Just finished PURGATORY MOUNT - a deceptively slim volume for an epic scale story. It has a smattering of @arrroberts usual mischief and is one of those proper clever clogs books that lingers afterwards. So there.
