I love the romantic quotes from The Priory of the Orange Tree but when Niclays said, “I loathe you. I loathe every lash of your eyes, every finger on your hands, and every tooth in your mouth. I loathe you to the very marrow of your bones...You cannot fathom the depth of the enmity I have felt for you. I have cursed your name with every sunrise”...that went pretty fucking hard

We may live in a crazy time.
But the amount of great queer fantasy/sci-fi novels we've been blessed with in the last 5 plus years is god tier and makes me happy to be alive.

Also props to samantha shannon, i have never been straight-baited as much as i have been while reading her books -- the tease of loth/sabran and loth/ead only for the canon ship to be sabran/ead and loth/his damn self, was extremely satistying in 'priory', and now wulf seems to be taking that role in 'day of fallen night' with the will-they-won't-they with glorian..? Though i might be reading this wrong, i still have 18 hours of listening left (WEEP)

When history fails to shed light on the truth, myth creates its own.
Eadaz "Ead" du Zala uq-Nāra, Sabran Berethnet and Miduchi Tané from The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon.
i had the wonderful opportunity to visit @sshannonauthor at kinokuniya sydney on the 19th, and it was such a lovely and inspiring time to hear exactly how the world of priory was created and why things existed in it!
to anyone looking for a queer feminist retelling (of st. george and the dragon) with IMMENSELY engaging worldbuilding and characters, i do highly recommend priory!

So Galian destroyed all portraits and statues of Kalyba as the first queen of Inys, not knowing that every single one of their descendants would look exactly like her lol
