finished watching Project Hail Mary
I've finished: I Cheerfully Refuse by Leif Enger
While I Cheerfully Refuse hits most of the usual post apocalyptic genre tropes, it is no regular post apocalyptic adventure novel.
Rainy is a quietly competent protagonist, and viewing this dystopian world from his perspective is what setts this novel apart.
Reminiscent of Station 11, it is a more literary work.
Literally (Actually) pitting Rainy and Lark, with her used book shop, against the illiterate anti-intellectualists.

This is the first YA book I've encountered that told readers, maybe our world isn't so great, and the Fantasy world would be vastly better. In this book, Aidan actually doesn't wanna come home.

I've finished: Knock Knock, Open Wide by Neil Sharpson
I'm not a big fan of horror.
I loved Knock Knock, Open Wide, mostly because the physical horror bits are few and far between.
Sharpson is mostly interested in how the horrific events traumatize the victims. We follow two timelines, two generations trying to live and love while a curse hangs over them.
Following their struggle, their failures and successes is what Knock Knock is about.
The thing that captured me was that at the core of this dysfunctional family are two couples that truly love each other. The proposal scenes just melted my heart. These scenes of mutual consent stand in stark contrast to the coercive powers that haunt them.

I've finished: Three Parts Dead by Max Gladstone
I accidentally entered Gladstone's Craft universe through the wrong door. Starting with: Dead Country, The Craft Wars #1. I decided to go back to the beginning of the Craft Sequence.
Thee Parts Dead was a delight. So many neat ideas, such a rich world.
It is a perfect mix: of the ancient and modern, of the magical and scientific, of old tropes and new.
I love the glimpses we get of a wider world and a deeper history. Hinting at a bigger universe beyond the limits of this novel.
It is both a light read and a complex tapestry of original twists on old tropes and new ideas that will peak the interest of an experienced fantasy reader.

Golden End is out now.
The Gods still walk among mortals.
At a sacred festival, Tirak survives what should have killed him.
His father does not.
Now ancient tablets have fallen into his hands, and the truth buried beneath worship, law, and fear begins to surface.
Dark fantasy. Active Gods. Mortal consequences.

Esta semana se publica «Sky», una novela corta de terror escrita por Kaaron Warren que cuenta con mi traducción para La biblioteca de Carfax.
Esta es la tercera novela que traduzco para la editorial y no cabe duda de que es la más inquietante de todas, ¡y eso que no hay ningún elemento fantástico! No hacen falta ni fantasmas ni vampiros cuando se escriben personajes y ambientaciones tan bien como lo hace Warren.
''Catherine Babault's Wild Vancouver Island is perfectly framed, visually stunning. She has clearly mastered the technical aspects of her art, and that mastery frees her to bear witness to the spirit of joy, discovery and delight that informs her engagement with the creatures and elements she portrays.'' - Tom Sandborn, Vancouver Sun.

Hello! Hope your Monday has gone well. I have been doing things, but also thinking about this splendid bookcase I recently stumbled upon. I am very happy to not covet my neighbour's house, staff, ox or donkey, but a wall-sized wooden bookcase with a built in ladder? Sorry, I think I covet that.
