Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. (...) Being a half-blood is dangerous. It's scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful nasty ways.

Hey, everybody! I have a new book out today! It’s a fantasy novella called THORNHEDGE and you can pick it up wherever you get your books!*
Tumblr media
It is very sweet and only has a few dead bodies in it and the heroine is a very anxious little were-toad.
This has been your shameless promotion for the day and I will now go back to reposting memes and interesting bug photos.
*unless, like, you only read books that are dropped in your lap by crows or slipped under your pillow by ragged claw-like hands in the night. I don’t have a distribution contract with those guys.

Oh, because I forgot to do this earlier and people asked, your total run avoided fourteen definite deaths and one Bad Choice that, while not outright fatal, would have meant that your luck would turn sour. (That doesn’t have, like, a randomized effect, given that much of this is improv, but ropes would snap, rungs would break, just how potable IS that water, maybe the pointy people did actually see your light and are lying in wait, etc.)
(Yes, there are actually things you can do to piss off the labyrinth. I won’t go into any details, because that would be too easy, but they do tend to be fairly obviously Significant Choices.)
Overall, you made it much, much deeper into the maze than any other players have, and a couple times I had to scramble to think “Jeez, what IS in that next room, anyway?” because you’d outrun my mental map.
Good job! The cabbages are proud.

because fuck book bans (especially book bans that target fiction for teens), the brooklyn public library is opening up free membership nationwide to people ages 13-21. if you or someone you know wants to take advantage, now's the time!
📚 learn more about the BPL's "books unbanned" initiative here.

Thornhedge by T.Kingfisher is out today! I made this cover that ended up getting cut before it went to print but I still like how the piece turned out and the book is great too! Many thanks to AD Peter Lutjen for taking a chance on this one!

Is this a pre-order I see before me?!
Tumblr media
It is! Coming December 5th, the fourth of the Saint of Steel books!
You can pre-order now wherever fine ebooks are sold*, and paperback orders are available from Argyll Productions! And Patreon patrons get it free, probably a few hours before midnight my time on the 4th.
This is Shane and Marguerite’s book, and it’s a chonker at 130k. There may even be a few more tidbits about the death of the god, in amid the adventure, romance, demons, and semi-accidental destabilization of the world economy!
*UK readers, you may have some glitches—OrbitUK is taking over the distribution there and we’re still ironing out transferring territorial rights—if the pre-order gets canceled, just re-order, it’s not you, it’s not even me, it’s the vast machinery of international commerce. But you also will get a snazzy paperback printing of all four books next year, which will not require ruinous shipping to the UK!
